Taiwanese-based manufacturer MSI, popular for its notebook computers, has unveiled its latest creation dubbed the MSI MT-V656. If you had previously given up all hope of ever laying your eyes on a quality Chinese media player, MSI’s latest toy just might change all of that.
Encased in a metal enclosure, the MT-V656 features a 3-inch screen purported to be capable of “HD video playback” with an undisclosed resolution.

If you thought the likes of Archos’ 606 reigned supreme for file support, the MT-V656 might have edged clear ahead of the pack. Included is support for (but not limited to) MP3, WMA, WAV, FLAC, APE, ACC, OGG, and M4A audio formats; support for MPEG-4, XviD, DivX, and WMV video formats.
The MT-V656 comes packed with additional features including an image viewer, TV-OUT output support, an FM radio, an e-book reader, digital voice recorder, games, and support for around 26 different languages.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to determine if the MT-V656 is touchscreen capable, but we aren’t holding with bated breaths. Intended as a means to keep down cost, the player will be available in a lowly 4GB storage capacity; although, it is expandable with the accompanying card slot.
The player will retail for around 288 yuan (~$42). No word on availability.
