  • Don't have a Cowon, man! Actually, do. Because this nifty MP3 player has ditched all the portable DAB stereotypes (big, bulky, poor battery). For a start it's small. Very small. Matchbox-sized in fact. It's got excellent battery life too. Like...
  • As is becoming the norm with MP3 players, it's got a touchscreen. Unfortunately it's not the best user interface, especially when compared to the iPod's Click Wheel or other touchscreen players. Some might also scoff at the stingy 2GB of Flash...
  • This classy little MP3 player supports most audio formats, looks really tasty and even includes a DAB radio. Apple haters, sit up and take notice...Cowon iAudio D2 is tagged with black, red, Cowon and MP3 player. Select a tag (black, for example) to fi...

  • Abstract:  Like the iPod Touch and the Archos 5, Cowons D2 has a touch screen instead of physical buttons, but it feels less responsive than the other players. The comparatively small 2in screen and the confusing interface, which is littered with small, hard...

  • Abstract:  Look, there, under that grain of dust. A tiny player that packs in a lot of features. The Cowon D2 is a neat little media player for music, photos and video. It has an FM radio built in, too, plus a microphone for recording notes and meetings - yet t...

  • Abstract:  In contrast, using the supplied software was actually quite a painless experience, it only took just over ten minutes to encode and copy 250MB of data, by far the fastest on test. The display quality is also extremely impressive; the large 2.5in screen is...

  • Autonomy, Audio quality, Numerous compatible audio formats, Slot for a SD/MMC card, Tactile screen
  • Very few compatible video formats, Small screen for video, Menus only in English, Standard earphones are mediocre (change them!)

  • Should DMB television broadcasts come to the UK any time soon, gadgets such as the Cowon iAudio D2 DMB could be pretty hot stuff. As it is, the less than impressive screen and lack of a decent aerial count against the Cowon iAudio D2 DMB. PC Advisor s...

  • Sound quality; design; screen quality; wealth of features; DAB radio; format support; SD card support
  • Tricky menus; touchscreen takes some getting used to; cant record directly to SD card
  • This upgraded version of the iAudio D2 is a fantastic player with the most sophisticated feature set weve ever seen in an MP3 player, and amazing sound quality to boot. Beginners to portable tech may struggle with the complex menu system though ...

  • Great performance, Lots of features
  • Fiddly stylus, Picky with WMV files
  • It may be small, but the iAudio D2 sure packs a lot into its slight frame. Not only does this compact gizmo play audio and video files, but it also features an FM tuner and SD/MMC card reader slot.At just 78mm wide, the iAudio D2 is the very definition...

  • Abstract:  compact, touch-sensitive multimedia player: Most video players are bigger than they need be. As well as the area devoted to the screen, they have to have controls to start and stop media, switch tracks and work through menus. Cowon has ...

  • In this way, Cowons device fails to live up to the "portable multimedia player" label engraved on its case. The D2 is an expensive flash audio player that flirts with multimedia, but ultimately will appeal only to people enchanted by the novelty of u...
