Patriot Memory PBO Alpine Media Player Review

Benchmark Reviews have reviewed the Patriot Memory PBO Alpine Media Player.

Let's see what they had to say:

"PBO Alpine is a dainty little device, occupying as much space as two decks of playing cards (and weighing about as much, too). The semi-gloss piano black finish looks great beside other home theater devices such as a HDTV, and the lightly textured surface helps to hide fingerprints when regularly handled. A subdued power LED shines dim enough to be unobtrusive, and helps maintain PBO Alpine's elegant appearance.

In summary, I'm extremely pleased with the Patriot PBO Alpine Media Player. I consider it very unfortunate that the device lacks an integrated wireless adapter, but not everybody will need or want this function. Regardless, PBO Alpine is a robust media player that has thoroughly impressed me with an ability to play every multimedia file type I could throw at it."


The Alpine PBO appears to be a nice upgrade to the original Patriot Box Office media player. Though that new ultra small remote looks to be a lot less user-friendly than the original's.
