Samsung Q2 Portable Media Player [Samsung YP-Q2 PMP]

Tweet

Whilst companies tend to shout news concerning new products from the rooftops, Samsung have obviously decided that the introduction of their new Q2 (specifically the YP-Q2) PMP really isn’t worthy of any particular fanfare.

Coming in 8GB and 16GB capacities, the Samsung Q2 PMP, which measures in at 1.9″ x 4″ x 0.4″, sports a 2.4″ QVGA (320 x 240 resolution) display, touch sensitive backlit controls and supports FLAC, MP3, OGG, WMA audio and MPEG-, WMV video file formats (as well as offering JPEG support) but, if you’re looking for Wi-Fi or, at the very least, Bluetooth support you can forget it.

Perhaps, on reflection, we can understand why it is that Samsung decided that they’d slip this particular PMP out somewhat quietly as, whilst in undoubtedly looks good, it’s nothing short of mediocre in terms of specifications. And, as if to underpin this, the most interesting feature about the Q2 would appear to be its endurance – a purported 50 hours of audio playback.

There’s no word concerning specific availability or pricing at this stage but, considering what’s on offer here, we’d expect the Samsung Q2 to come at a suitably low price point.
