Review @ AnandTech
Zitat
The main problems that we see associated with Muvo2 are mostly design-based, namely a small LCD display (132 x 32 res.), the inability to access the controls when slipped into its holster, and its small buttons. The front side of the Muvo2 design could have been utilized better by providing a larger display and/or increasing the side of the buttons. On the software side, there are minor modifications that can be made to make the experience easier, but the size of the LCD display limits interaction no matter how good the OS is developed. The easiest thing to remedy would be to cut out some windows in the holster to accommodate accessibility.

[...]

Underlying all of this and yet still the top issue, the Muvo2 sound quality is clear as a bell, and all of our high quality MP3s were distinguishable from the lower recorded quality files. We still prefer the sound quality of the full-sized iPod's, but they aren't in the same price league. Other than Apple, Creative is the only other company to be in this ~4GB MP3 player market, and we would recommend that those who are considering purchasing a MP3 player with a semi-large storage capacity, but are on a budget, should take look at this one. Overall, the Muvo2 comes out as an excellent best-buy type MP3 player.
