QuickTake:

Pros: The Samsung YP-K5 features a unique and stylish design with a built-in, slide-out speaker, and the interface is stunning; includes an FM radio and cool visual effects. The player offers excellent sound quality, and the included earbuds are decent.
Cons: Due to the speaker, the YP-K5 is on the large and heavy side for a flash player; the touch controls take some getting used to and attract smudges; display could be bigger; expensive.

Comments:

Review Verdict: This combination MP3 player and speaker folds up to the size of the LG Chocolate phone. It's a very hip idea, though I'm not quite sure people will pay a premium for the integrated speaker. The slider mechanism seems sturdy enough, though, and the device

Review Verdict: Prices are at Rs. 11,500 for 1GB of space and Rs. 12, 000 for 2GB. The K5 is available with 1, 2, and 4GB capacities, although the 4GB version is not yet available. That's not too much space considering the high cost. In my opinion, with this player, alth

Comments:
Its new YP-K5 digital music player has nifty features, and the price is right. But notable drawbacks keep it from getting top marks.

Review Verdict: Who wants a boom box so small that it fits into your shirt pocket? Samsung is hoping a lot of people, by the looks of the new $249 YP-K5 4GB digital music player I've been reviewing (there are also 1GB and 2GB versions).Taking yet another stab at breaking

Comments:
- Samsung's latest MP3 Player holds a dark secret. No, not that secretly inside it's an iPod nano, but that a slide of the design reveals a speaker so you can share the music with others.

Review Verdict: While we got lots of ohhs and arhhs we also got a lot of whys when we showed the unit off to people we know.
