Philips PMC7230 - Laptop Mag

Philips-PMC7230.jpg

Laptop Magazine have published their review of the Philips PMC7230 portable media player. 'The PMC7230 is not exactly svelte. At 4.2 x 3.7 x 0.8 inches, the boxy case departs from the increasingly popular widescreen designs of competing players. On the plus side, this orientation allowed Philips to place two five-way switches beneath the screen, keeping all controls on the face of the unit. You won't have to hunt for the volume keys or anything else.

The large frame allows for a sizable 3.5-inch screen with a 320 x 240-pixel resolution. That doesn't make for the sharpest picture when compared with other players; models from Archos and Creative sport higher-resolution displays. Viewed up close, the image takes on the "screen door" effect, where you can see vertical and horizontal lines that make up the pixels. We like the very wide viewing angles, making the PMC7230 well suited for watching movies with a friend.'
