The Philips GoGear HDD6320 is a real hard drive MP3 player, which has a capacity of 30GB memory. It has a beautiful design similar to that of the iPod along with a touch sensitive interface. The Philips GoGear HDD6320 has excellent sound quality and even a photo friendly colour screen along with support for WMA DRM 10 content subscription. An additional feature is the voice recorder. This product has a lot of salient features that makes it distinct from others. A fantastic style and an elegant look is one of the main advantages. The sound quality is good and the unit comes with a voice recorder and even has a FM radio tuner. The LCD, which is large and colourful, is an important outstanding feature. It weighs 5.3 ounces. The Philips GoGear HDD6320 is also compatible with major online music services. The photos and pictures can be easily viewed through the 2-inch 220 by 176 pixel LCD. There are 20 presets for the FM radio. Other features include a soft case and a Y shaped USB charging cable and the power adapter.

The drawbacks are that it lacks tactile controllers and the entire device reveals fingerprints and smudges, which mars the look of the unit. It does not have a user replaceable battery. There have been processor performance issues, which have come up. When it comes to colour, the Philips GoGear HDD6320 is available mostly in black. However, you can opt for other colours depending on availability. The buttons on this unit are all clustered together. This makes it slightly difficult to use. It’s surprising that this is a Philips product as the audio quality is regarded as below average. So if you are looking for outstanding audio, this should not be your first choice. But it’s worth a look anyway!

    Limited audio format support, but it’s easy to use and both looks and sounds great Read more

    A triumph of style and simplicity. The only criticism we have of the gorgeous GoGear HDD6320 is that we'd have liked a marginally larger display to enjoy our photos as well as our music. Read more

    A stunning looking player that rivals any other MP3 player in the style stakes, just such a shame that it lets you down so very badly, so very often. For a start the battery life sucks - I have a Creative Zen Vision that lasts about 5 times as long as this on one charge, and thats with a full colour screen and MP4 playback. Then there is the fact that it freezes about once a week, meaning you have to reset it and in doing so, lose all your music. This is followed by the... Read more
