T10

RRP $TBC

When you think MP3 players, don't automatically think iPod. A Windows player may be more suitable for you – a player such as the T10, perhaps. New from Samsung, this player is available in sizes up to 8GB, and is sleek and portable. With a customizable interface and cover and easy file transfers, this is an impressive little device.

 

BEST NAVIGATION SYSTEM UNDER 6 INCHES

TomTom
GO720

RRP $599
As far as portable navigation devices go, this TomTom will take you where you want to go. It's slim and lightweight, meaning you can easily take it out of the car as well. It also has helpful features such as the ‘Help Me' menu, which can navigate you to the nearest police station, for example or even give you first aid information.

7010


RRP $499
The 7010 might not come from a well known brand name, but that's a good thing in this case – as it packs in a lot more value for money. Sporting a massive 7-inch touchscreen for easy map readability, intuitive menus and easy playback of audio, video and photos, the 7010's navigation software is top notch too.
