Samsung YP-T9

Battery
The Lithium Polymer battery is as impressive as it comes. It can be charged via USB and runs 30 hours of music playback and 6 hours of video. The best part is, it hardly takes an hour for a full recharge.

Conclusion
Ok! I think I’m done, have I missed anything? I don’t think so. Now the price of this tiny gadget is Rs. 12,000. With brands such as the iPod Nano and the T9's closest competitor, the Sandisk Sansa e250, it still manages to get a few points more with its design. The only difference between the T9 and Sansa e250, is that the Sansa has the capacity for additional external memory. Now if only Samsung could have done the same, there would be no competition.

But the Bottom Line is – it's awesome! Not only does it come packed with features, it handles it with a touch of class. So go ahead, treat yourself to one of these babies. I know I want one.

There's also another model in this series - the YP-T9B - that supports Bluetooth A2DP headsets. That hasn't been launched in India yet, so we'll keep our eyes peeled for it.
