RAmos RM400 Media Player

ramos-rm400.jpg

It's only been a handful of weeks since we reported on the RM150 PMP, but RAmos is already gearing up to take off with its upcoming RM400. Given the photo at right, the company is quite pleased with the player's MPEG-4/AVI (up to 24 fps) video support and 2.2-inch 320 x 240 (QVGA) TFT display. And it's understandable. Such specs may be run of the mill in the U.S., but they're an impressive improvement over the majority of devices currently coming out of China.

Like such devices, however, the RM400 has only 512MB of onboard flash memory. Not much room for supported MP3s, JPGs, voice recordings, or games, but the integrated mini SD slot can take on cards up to 2GB.

The device will be available (in China) later this month for what we can only assume will be an incredibly affordable price. Similar Chinese players don't stray far from the $50 mark, so the RM400 shouldn't either.

Whats with all these awsome DAPs coming out of Asia with only flash and expandable memory? They'd make it so much more if they had at LEAST 20gigs in one of them...

20 gigs and they wouldn't be 50$ they would be 250$ and so they wouldn't be able to compete with ipod class devices... I think its cool you can get a video player for 50$, 512mb it's enough for one or two movies anyway so its cool for short roadtrips and similar....

    The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.

    The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

    The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
