The cheapest and arguably most sensible PSP clone we’ve written about has a successor. The JXD1000 was a little lacking in a few things like an antenna, which the JXD2000 has. We’re not sure what it’s meant for, though, since the store specs doesn’t mention TV reception. The specs does include an improved FM tuner [...]

I’m not sure if $90 is a cheap PSP clone for you but it sure is the cheapest I’ve heard about. It’s got good specs like 720p support, direct playback for DVD not to mention multiple video format support (RMVB/RM, AVI, VOB, DAT, MPG, FLV), a 2.0 MP camera and the all important games support, [...]

Chinese clone makers have found it easy the first few Xenium model phones from Philips. Even a clone purportedly of the non-existent N98 was really a Xenium clone. The Xenium X830 is a well-featured touchscreen phone with WiFi and 5 MP camera. It will also come with an 8 GB storage built-in to be interesting [...]

Even the Chinese cloners are steering clear of the PSP Go. Venus has a new all-around PMP that coincidentally resembles the PlayStation Portable hardware. The JXD300 supports GBA, NES games as well as various video and music files like RMVB, RM, AVI, MPG, FLV and playing DVDs and VCD files directly is not out of [...]

Remember the Philips edge-to-edge touchscreen phone, dubbed Xenium 800? It looks like the phone has something to do too with this clone from Venus. In fact the JXD318 PMP, now shown here in another render photo more closely resembles the Philips touchscreen phone than the Toshiba TG01. Can’t wait till we get a live glimpse [...]

Yes, this is another Chinese clone of a popular mobile device. We didn’t think it would happen so soon, but then again, the Toshiba TG01 doesn’t exactly have the most unique design. Venus used to be a pretty prolific PMP manufacturer. These days, it’s taking it easy, being more deliberate in its releases. The JXD318 [...]

If you have 599 yuan ($88) and only want the best-quality video on your portable player, the JXD990 PMP from Venus is the ideal player for you. It’s the slimmest or hippest PMP out there and yet the JXD990 supports Blu-Ray quality videos of up to 1280 × 720 pixels. I’m not sure this quality [...]

Another PMP model has added the plus sign. The VX747 is one of ONDA’s most popular MP4 player and adding a 1.3 megapixel camera will not hurt its sales one bit, I’m sure, if only to keep up with the growing trend in the MP4 player industry. The best thing about the add-on is that [...]

Not to nitpick, it’s really a reworking of the iPod Touch, not the iPhone, but moving on. The 311 does text (otherwise known as e-Book support), mic voice recording, AV-in and out and a digital camera with an unknown megapixel count. remember that Venus introduced a series of JXD MP4 players a while ago, many [...]

The Newsmy F4 MP4 player is not an MP4 Player at all but an MP6 player. Still, technically a PMP (portable media player), the F4 plays RM/ RMVB directly and has a 1.3 megapixel camera built, sort of like the new Venus JXD releases we featured yesterday. Like one of the Venus JXD players, the [...]
