All plus points.īut even if you get past the repugnant design, the unfathomable, unresponsive menus, and the sheer disbelief that any manufacturer would pitch this as a superior alternative to a Walkman or an iPod, decent-gigabytes-for-your-money claims can't save this haggard behemoth from death by fail.

It's got a digital camera for some reason, too. Additionally, the Media Pro's support for extensive media formats (from MP3 and AAC, to FLAC and even MIDI), is admirable. £105 will get you a 16GB model, which while unfathomably disproportionate to its ability to disappoint even the most optimistic of us, represents good value in terms of pounds to gigabytes - but even then, not really: the infinitely superior 16GB Creative Zen is available for a smidgeon under £100. In fact, after 10 minutes, ZDNet UK editor and tech veteran Rupert Goodwins could only comment, 'Good God, this is the Media 'Pro'? I'd hate to see the basic model!' Not a single person on the Crave team could muster anything more than disbelief as they fumbled their way around the impossible interface. The Media Pro is a thick, black, weighty touchscreen audio and video player.

Frankly, if this is the best we can do, we deserve an imploding economy and a government that can't function. The definitive antithesis of quality, the Sonix7 Media Pro is pitched under the assumption that British is better. No beating around the bush today: it surprises us that a product can be this poor.
