Best Portable Video Player

What’s a PMP you asked? It stands for Portable Media Player. No, it’s not merely just a portable music player. We’re talkin about portable video players that you watch your movies on. Since most of us nowadays download DivX movies and TV series from the internet or copying from someone else’s collection, we ended up watching them most of the time in computers or burn them onto DVDs to be played on your TV. But what if you wish to go portable? What device would you need to fulfill that?

Enter the Archos 605 Wi-fi, one of the best Portable Media Players out there. The 605 plays your movies, music videos and TV series tremendously thanks to its magnificent 4.3-inch touchscreen in 800 x 480 resolution. Watching your favorite videos in the Archos 605 is far more convenient than lugging your laptop or squinting on an iPod. And don’t get me started with the iPhone (you’ll need to do a lot of conversions beforehand). That’s right, the Archos supports most video formats out there so uploading your videos into this 160GB monster is a breeze. Now you could watch an episode of Heroes or Prison Break anywhere, anytime.

In addition, the Archos 605 has a built-in wi-fi. That means you can surf the internet on this thing. Now that’s what I call an added bonus. What else is there not to like? Sleek design, brilliant features and a touchscreen. It’s only 122 mm wide and 15 mm thick. Of course, the best thing about this player is how gorgeous the videos look when played, as if coming to life. Clearly, the best PMP on the market.
