Sonix7 Shows Off iPod Knockoffs

Friday May 16, 2008
A company by the name of Sonix7 revealed recently some MP3 players which look a lot like iPods. They are called, appropriately enough, the Nano Pro and Touch Pro and you'll find them available for shipment from the UK starting at £39.99 or £69.99 respectively.

The Sonix7 Nano Pro looks pretty similar to the iPod nano. It sports a 1.8-inch color display. Audio listening options include built-in speakers or a headphone jack for more private listening. Up to 8GB of memory can be included with this player, allowing for storage of up to 2,000 songs, 3,500 digital photos or eight hours of video.

The Touch Pro, meanwhile, is a copycat of the iPod touch. It features a 2.8-inch touchscreen display which lets you control almost all of this player's features. Features it has include 4GB of memory (expandable by 2GB), FM radio, support for a variety of media formats, voice recording and a built-in digital camera.

I got a sonix player, and it has never worked, the shop refuses responsibility, and unable to to contact sonix support, keep away from them - waste of money.

Not a bad little player, came next day and does the job. My wifes ipod is slightly better but Sonix7 beats it hands down on the price. Adams
