Newman is the most popular portable media player manufacturer in China, but, alas, we’ve only written twice about their products, and one of them is a video by Charbax, which features the M6000 and an apparently camera-less M8000. As Charbax’s video report indicated, the maximum storage capacity of the M8000 (which comes in black and white versions) is 200GB (not bad at all).
Newman makes very usable and yet elegantly designed PMPs, and the M8000 is no exception. Video support is up to par with current consumer needs: MP3, WMA and MPEG-1 (DAT, MPG, MPEG). MPEG-2 (DVD) and MPEG-4 (AVI) formats. The 4-inch widescreen (with 16:9 aspect ratio) has 16million colors. The on board 1.3 megapixel camera records video in720 x 480-pixel resolution. The M8000 also functions as a PVR and has a game emulator, TV out, SD extension and 4.5 hours of video playing. The price for the 80GB M8000 is 1,999 yuan ($261).
