Are there any players that come close to the audio of the Clip+ but also have decent video?

Because I find that on the go I love to listen to music, but there's those times when I feel like I could or should be catching up on my anime.

I've personally tested the Zune HD for video and found it to be superb. But it isn't going to be my personal video player only, it's also about the audio.

Let's hope.

i love the sound quality of T51/sflo2, but not for video, the screen of player doesnt have good colour reproduction.
for zune hd, i love the video but not for sound quality.

you may consider Cowon S9 or wait the new Cowon J3, also Samsung M1 if you dont care about very high price

I agree with the S9.

Great sounding player with an OLED screen (like the HD, same screen size too) and LOTS of features. Kicks the crap from any iPod in any of the aforementioned.

Okay, i shall post my question here since its relevant.

Similarly to the op's question, but is there a player that is portable ?
The clip+ is the best for size-performance ratio.

I am looking cowon, and specifically the cowon D2+.
Its seems small and portable to me.

I also looked at the cown J3 and the S9, but i find them a little too high in price for my usage, as I am mainly a desktop person, and intending to get an iphone for source in the future, so this player will just be used temporary.

Is the cowon D2's video capability good enough for those who had use it before ?

Please shoot me players if you feel that they meet my criteria

the video quality is OK, not great. For the price you pay for the Fuze you can invest more into your earphone or memory card.

If I needed video, that is the path I would follow.

For me the D2+ fitted what I wanted (Mostly due to the SD card slot).
Has decent audio quality and decent video playback.
I'm not going to give you a review but just encourage you to look into it.

Video on the Fuze is pretty bad quality. I did a lot of reading up on the Fuze and all of the reviews (and from what I saw in person) mentioned don't get that player if video is high on your list of needs.

How is the s:flo2 battery life playing video?

I don't have one but I've read that the Samsung p3 has a nice screen and good SQ to back it up.

watching video on a hand-held is just annoying altogether >.>

My Sony A818 is ok for video. Bit picky about formats. Sounds good too. Small screen though. Touch 2G is good for video and I think it also sounds good, if different. I'll be honest and say I'm don't use video on my devices much at all. Its mainly live music I've got from youtube so the vid quality is often not great to start with.
