Editorial note

The Cowon C2 is an MP3 player that stands out for its exceptional audio quality, thanks to a signal-to-noise ratio of 95 dB. This feature ensures clear and precise listening, providing an enjoyable listening experience. Additionally, its 16 GB storage capacity allows users to keep a large amount of audio and video files, although this may seem limited for larger libraries. The impressive battery life of 55 hours of continuous audio playback is a major asset, ideal for long sessions without interruption. The 2.6-inch touchscreen LCD, while modern, has a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels that may seem outdated compared to current standards, which could affect the visual experience for some users. However, the Cowon C2 has its drawbacks. The lack of FM radio may disappoint those who wish to listen to stations without an Internet connection. The 4.5-hour charging time may also be considered relatively long for daily use. Furthermore, the limited compatibility with recent operating systems could restrict access for users of more modern technologies. In summary, the Cowon C2 offers good audio performance and impressive battery life, but the limitations in storage and compatibility may pose challenges for some users.
