Hantel Pimps the Qoolqee X to Jens of Sweden as the MP-X

jens-of-sweden-mp-x-qoolqee.jpg

This player has been out and about for several months as the Qoolqee X, but now the X is playing the same role in its rubberized attire with a new logo strapped on.

The rugged design is… well… I will let this choice quote from the Jens of Sweden website describe the ruggedness of the MP-X:

"The first player that will suit your active life. That can take some shit. Blood, sweat and tears. Tackles and overturns."
Crazy Swedish ad writers.

Americans can pick one of these 1GB players supporting MP3, WMA, and OGG up for a little over $100 plus around $40 for shipping from Sweden.

Update: Fosfor Gadgets has a great review of this player here.

Qoolqee i, Another Cool Player

I don’t know if we will ever see any of these Qoolqee players in the States, but if this MP3 player sounds anything like its sibling, the Qoolqee K7 it would definitely be a winner.

This is your standard flash player with a monochrome screen, FM tuner, and 20 hour battery life on a single AAA battery. The “i” will support MP3, WMA, and OGG. No word on when and where this player will be released.

Qoolqee K7 Review

qoolqee-k7.jpg

The Qoolqee K7 boasts a 65,000 1.5” color display, dual headphone inputs, jog dial for and easy menu navigation, 20 hour battery life, FM tuner, and unlimited ways to customize both the sound and display. The player has a plethora of other features and is able to play MP3, WMA, and OGG files. But the one this player excels in is sound quality which is produced by a high end Wolfson 24bit DAC.

I choose to review this player because it is one of those gems overlooked by the US market. Even though the United States may never see this player, by creating some attention it may help to bring it stateside some day.

    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.

  • Toshiba Gigabeat T400

    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.

  • SanDisk Sansa Clip

    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.
