minimalist and a good value
|
My experience with this has been mostly positive. For everything that really matters to me (i.e. sound quality, navigating) it has surpassed my expectations for a sub-hundred-dollar MP3 player in a streamlined and intuitive package. I also like the "no-cord" approach, so that the USB port doubles to transfer files and charge the battery. The FM radio and voice recorder features are nice.
I was a bit worried about the wiggly USB port that projects out, switchblade style, but I've seen several videos where over 20 pounds were hung from it before it broke. Time will tell but it seems sturdy enough for now. It comes with a cd but I haven't even taken it out of the package -- WMP and even drag-and-drop worked immediately for me (with XP).
However, the "skin-and-bones" approach does seem to leave some gaps: there is a nice FM tuner and a nice voice recorder but no FM recording feature; some of the user settings (like skip interval) do not persist after the device is restarted; it cannot be used as a USB drive. Also, the touch-activated buttons can be difficult to operate since you can't identify them by touch and they are fairly close together (this doesn't bother me much, but I have a feeling my dad's big fingers would find it awkward).
All in all, I am finding it to be a very nice, good value, stripped-down MP3 player. However, I strongly recommend playing with it a bit before you buy it, to see if you like it. |
