English review summary below.

“The best media player on the market at below 200 €”

“Supported media files are numerous, almost all! Moreover, again via USB, you can connect the dongle wi-fi.

Play on!

Our little media player is ready in just over 10 seconds. The only button on the box is the power, everything else should be done with the included remote control. This measure 20x5x2cm, light but solid, is powered by 2 AA batteries 1.5 V (included). The buttons are rubber, well spaced, and the feed is guaranteed by a small led - located next to the power button - which lights up when you press any button. All functions are shown on the remote itself and is not difficult to use. The interface is simple and reduced to the minimum to not overload the processor. Navigation is fairly smooth and even more voluminous files are loaded on more than reasonable time, without long waits.

The absence of the fan, as well as the ability to read the video over a network or from USB stick, make the reader completely silent. A factor to be reckoned with if you want to stick in the bedroom. Because if there are headphones for the audio, nothing can be done against the noise of a HDD and a fan!

Considering all the functions, not least that media can be streamed directly from your PC without wasting time to copy files, and very compatible with any media format, the price is certainly restrained, practically a bargain. To all this must be added the work and the availability of AC Ryan, who frequently updates the firmware and has a support forum for troubleshooting.

For everything that we said, for the size, for quality and support, the Playon!HD mini is today the best media player on the market at below 200 €”
