Play your movies, TV shows, photos and music, surf the web, read Microsoft Office documents and much more.

Stylish and Portable
Weighing in at just 13.4 ounces including the battery, the Q5 is easy to take with you, no matter where you're headed. It's also sure to catch glances with its sleek, metallic modern design and 5-inch LCD.

Brilliant Touchscreen with "Wing Click" GUI
The Q5 boasts a 16-million color, 5-inch LCD touchscreen with 800 x 480 screen resolution. Enjoy your videos and images in all their widescreen glory.

Use the touch screen in Pen Mode with the included stylus, or just use your fingers to navigate--the "Wing Click" graphical user interface (GUI) puts menus on both sides of the screen so you can get to what you need quickly and efficiently.

Look Mom, No Cables
The Q5 offers you freedom from twisted and shorted cables with 802.11g/b Wi-Fi and Bluetooth V2 with A2DP support. Connect wirelessly to a LAN or the Internet wherever you find access. Enjoy your music through a Bluetooth stereo headset, and forget about the tangled headphones in your desk drawer.

The Internet in Your Hands
Use the available WinCE Browser Plug-in for web surfing wherever you find an open Wi-Fi connection. The pre-installed Adobe Flash Player 7 lets you enjoy Flash games and other utilities, along with the Flash content present on many web sites. Stay in touch with the voice-enabled messenger service for online chat and MSN voice chat.

Wide Audio/Video Codec Support
It's great to have your media with you, but it can be a laborious process getting it all in the right format for a lot of devices. With the Q5, you'll enjoy native support for the most common (and some uncommon) audio and video codecs, as well as wide image support--even for RAW files up to 10 MB in size:

  • Video: AVI (DivX, Xvid), ASF, WMV 7/8/9, MPEG, MP4, OGM
  • Music: MP3, OGG, WMA, FLAC, APE, MPC, WAV, ASF
  • Picture: JPEG, BMP, PNG, RAW

JetEffect Music Enhancement
Dial in the perfect sound no matter what you're listening to with Cowon's various enhancement tools:

  • BBE: clarifies music
  • Mach3Bass: Enhances low-frequency bass spectrum
  • MP Enhance: Restores distorted digital music
  • 3D Surround: Provides 3D sound effect
  • 5-Band EQ: Customizeable equalizer with adjustable band and bandwidth filter

Wireless Remote Control and TV Out
Using the Cowon Q5 as a home media center? Control the device from your couch with the included remote control, and connect it to your TV or stereo with component, composite, and S-Video video outputs, along with a SPDIF digital out for crystal-clear audio.

USB Host
Back up data or photos directly from USB devices like digital cameras via the Q5's USB host. You also can use Windows CE-compatible devices, such as keyboards and mice. Is that a computer in your pocket? Why yes, it is.

Express Yourself
Customization is key. Make your gadget your own by creating your own theme skin for your Q5--create your own wallpaper and GUI graphics for a personal flare.

Read Office Documents
The Windows CE Office Viewer lets you read Word, Excel, Power Point, and other MS Office documents on the go. Combine that with full support for text files, and you have a business/study assistant whenever you need it.

Plenty of Time...
The Q5 boasts up to 13 hours of audio or 7 hours of video on one charge of the internal Lithium-Polymer battery 6500mA--plenty to get you through the day.

Voice Recording
Record lectures, memos, meetings--whatever you need documented--via the built-in microphone, or use an external microphone of your choosing.

FM Radio and Radio Recording
When you feel like letting someone else choose your entertainment, enjoy some FM Radio. Use the recorder to grab broadcasts from one of your user presets for later listening.

What's in the Box
Cowon Q5, AV cable, AC adapter, wireless remote control, earphones, USB cable, hand strap, installation CD, manual, and warranty card.

1 out of 5 stars Don't by Cowon products...   September 6, 2008

I have been thoroughly disappointed with their products and lack of customer service. They average about 2-3 weeks to return an email for customer service issues. I finally got through to a representative and was advised to send the product back to them, at my own expense and they emailed back about 1 month later stating that there is no problem with the item. When I emailed back with a detailed description of the specific situation I encountered (item stopped powering on or charging through the USB port) they ceased communication. I still haven't heard back from them, but will never buy their products ever again. They are terrible both at manufacturing and caring for their customers.
