I was very excited when I heard that Philips was letting me review their latest GoGear LUXE mp3 player! I’ve seen one of the Philips staff, at the previous luxurious Bloggers Event they held, wearing this very stylish jewel. She introduced it as one of Philips’ latest innovation for a fun and simple MP3 player. I’ve been waiting to get my hands on it ever since!

Delicious!

I was given the black set and Sab had the red one. Both of colours look like timeless pieces of jewelleries that can be worn even if you just received it and haven’t yet charged the player.

As demonstrated by yours truly in the below picture.

It looks like part of my clothes design!

Tip: Clipping it on a belt would look fantastic too!

Clip and click to always stay tuned and connected! The chic Philips GoGear LUXE digital audio player fastens as an accessory and switches from music to calls on your Bluetooth mobile phone – and displays Caller ID – with one touch.

The sound quality is superb! The set comes with a in-ear headphone, its USB cable can be plugged into the battery charger module which is very convenient because I always found my gadgets having too many cables and it can get confusing!!

I’ve tested that the Bluetooth works fine with my Sony Ericsson K800i phone, but I’m not one that likes to use earpiece. Sab would definitely find it very useful because she always have problem picking up her phone while driving (putting my life in danger as well!). If you’re looking for a wireless handsfree earpiece for your phone AND looking for a simple MP3 player, I think the LUXE would definitely be very useful. I’m not sure if there are other MP3 players out there that can match Philips’ GoGear LUXE in terms of of its on-the-go bluetooth cum MP3 player functionality, but as someone that hasn’t bought a MP3 player in the past five years, this is something  that I would actually pay for. But of course, I’m putting this MP3 player on my Christmas wish list *hint hint*.

This chic little thing has 2Gb of space, which is more than sufficient for my daily listening pleasures. It’s small but not  unsightly and it’s matches clothes super easily! I’m going to play with this MP3 player for a while more and update you guys again! Hopefully I get to keep the review set for a few more weeks! The GoGear LUXE definitely stands out in terms of looks, although its compact design meant that the buttons were a little small and I had to use my nails to press them since my fingers are quite stubby >,<

With it costing a little more than SG$100, it’s definitely a bang for buck mp3 player!
