Review Apple must really be feeling the heat by now. While the innovative design and user interface of the iPod will go down in history, they can also split public opinion like a Mac vs PC argument or an open source versus proprietary software flame war. You know, the sort of heated discussions you hear in pubs… and at trade shows just before someone gets glassed.Of all the pretenders to the iPod crown, Samsung has perhaps the best credentials, and its T9 media player will do its reputation as heir apparent no harm at all. In fact, it outperforms and outcools the iPod Nano in several areas. The YP-T9JAB, to give it its full name, is a bit of a looker, perhaps not as sleek and elegant as its cousin the K3, but you still wouldn’t say no. It’s smooth and shiny - depending on how greasy your fingers are - and it’s got a much larger screen - 1.8in - than the Nano. The display only has a 176 x 144 resolution, but image quality is good - very bright and detailed. Although it’s slightly thicker than the Nano - 8.3 x 4.2 1cm - the T9 is still barely noticeable inside your pocket and feels like a small mobile phone in the hand - not bulky and durable.The central five-way control pad on the front of the device is ergonomically perfect, although the four side buttons can be fiddly, especially those which you end up using quite often, like the Back and Menu keys. It would have been better to find a way of incorporating them on the front, for improved usability, but that said, we still found it generally easier to use than the K9’s touchscreen design.The main menu itself is a stylish interface, presented in a choice of five different colours and featuring various icons describing each function, which change into a description of that function as you look at it. OK, sounds a bit geeky, but these minor stylistic touches are what can make the difference between a great product and an also-ran, and Samsung has learned wisely. By and large the menus are fairly easy to navigate around: music can be searched for by artist, album, genres and so on, and the context menu makes it easy to set-up EQs, speed up playback - useful for audio books - and set the screen background to display album artwork or your own pictures or graphics.You can expect to get lots of playback features with Samsung, and the T9 doesn’t disappoint. As well as the regular shuffle and repeat, there are 12 EQ presets and a nine-band user-customisable EQ.

Mobile World Congress Sony Ericsson has unveiled two additions to its Cyber-shot range: the C702 and C902. Each packs enough functions to keep the amateur snapper happy, but neither matches the new W980’s audio features.Sony Ericsson’s C702 offers GPS photo taggingThe 3.2-megapixel C702 allows for single-handed camera use, letting users both frame and snap pictures whilst holding, say, a double decaf latte in the other. Although its CMOS sensor may not be as powerful as the C902’s five-megapixel offering, the C702 integrates GPS image tracking that ensures you always remember when and where your pictures were taken.The C702’s camera is dust and splash resistantFace detection and an auto-focus lens both feature on the C702, which SE claims combine to create sharp and high-quality pictures. Once you’ve finished snapping for the day, or night, though, the rival C902 allows images stored on its 160MB in-built memory - or Memory Stick Micro card - to be displayed with music on its 2in display, thanks to a function dubbed x-Pict.The C902 has illuminated keys for finding your waySE’s C702 may have the larger 2.2in display, but both Cyber-shot phones are quad-band GSM/GPRS/Edge handset with 3G HSDPA connectivity. Bluetooth features on both models.A five-megapixel camera is on-board the C902However, if neither of the Cyber-shot’s tech specs take your fancy, then SE’s also unveiled the clamshell W980. It too has quad-band GSM/GPRS/Edge with support for 3G HSDPA connections, but comes in a much more space-age design.Sony Ericsson’s clamshell W980 has an 8GB memoryFalling under the Walkman banner, the W980 has a whopping 8GB internal memory and allows you to listen to various music formats, such as MP3 and AAC, according to eight equalizer pre-set sounds, including jazz and heavy metal. SE claims you’ll also hear your music as…erm…”it was meant to be heard” because a clear audio experience feature helps ensure crystal-quality headphone playback.Whilst at, say, a gig, you’ll be equipped with a 3.2-megapixel camera through which you can snap pictures of the band. Images can be played back on the phone’s 2.2in display using SE’s x-Pict story function. Bluetooth, with A2DP for wireless music streaming, is on-board if you want to send the picture to friends afterwards.The SE Cyber-shot C702 and C902 will be available in the second quarter of this year, followed by the W980 in Q3. Prices haven’t been unveiled yet.Mobile World Congress 2008 Complete Coverage here

Sony Ericsson has already announced two feature-rich Walkman music phones today, but it’s also trying its luck with a third model that really scrapes the functionality barrel by comparison.Sony Ericsson’s W302: has a 2Mp cameraBuy a W302 and you won’t, sadly, find the five-megapixel camera or HSDPA connectivity integrated into the W902. Instead, the W302 comes with a two-megapixel camera and quad-band GSM/GPRS/Edge connectivity.However, each W302 comes with a dedicated blogging site where users can instantly upload images or videos snapped through the phone.The phone’s “Sparkling White” shadeThe W302 does at least ship with some storage: 512MB of it, on a Memory Stick Micro card. The phone supports MP3 and AAC format audio tracks.The phone doesn’t boast any other stand-out features and includes everything that basic talkers have nowadays, ranging from Bluetooth connectivity and a USB port to 3D games and Java support.Sony Ericsson hasn’t disclosed a price for the W302 yet, although it does state that it’s the “most affordable Walkman phone to date”. The phone’s set to be released into the UK later this year, with users able to choose between a “Midnight Black” and “Sparkling White” body colour.
