MP4/MP3 Touch Screen Player, 20 Mar 2008
This review is from: Jtek 4GB 4.3 Touchscreen MP3 / MP4 player / with Microsoft Play FX Software FM Radio, Voice Recorder and Jtek Extras Pack including Upgraded Earphones and Car Charger (Upgraded July 2010 Model) Also Available in 8GB and 16GB Versions
Unfortunately had to return the first one as the touch screen was defective, but this was mitigated by the great service and a replacement was sent immediately. First impressions are that it is a great little device, smaller and lighter than a packet of cigaretes. The ability to put extra storage in, by use of a mini-SD card is great, especially if you are to away from home for a long time. Okay 4 Gb memory basic should be enough for most unless you want to use it solely for videos. I haven't used the device for a video yet, but from the sample given it is quite clear. With pictures it does not like too large a format so to display them you need to reduce the size/compression, however the display is nice and clear.Only niggle I have at present is the built in game, I cannot see or work out how to open this Tetris like game; I have no idea if you can load alternatives, but if you are into mini-games then this device is not really suitable.
The touhscreen screen remind me of the current advertisements for a certain Apple device, but how similar they are I have no idea, but the touch screen menu looks good and is easy to use.
Connection via the USB cable for uploading or downloading files is easy, the device is even recognised instantly by Microsoft Vista without needing additional drivers.
Battery life, well I have used this only for a few hours as yet but the built in battery display, on the touch screen, still shows a full charge.
The unit comes with ear plug type speakers, in white, which I haven't use, prefering light weight headphones, and as such I have found the clarity to be most acceptable and no need to turn the volume any way near half way up. The option of using the built in speaker is very handy at times and for its size it gives reasonable sound but remember if you want to use it for a party etc you need a seperate powered speaker unit.
I haven't really got to terms with the built in radio, but it is very directional and seems to need to be tuned in precisely.
The screen size is larger than most other devoted MP3 screens on the market unless you go for a devoted movie device (generally 4 to 8 inches. It is very acceptable for one person to use about the normal distance as per reading a book, but not really acceptable for use by two or more people nor for all the kids in back of the car.
One word of caution is that when you first get the unit home, there is a 'plastic' protective membrane to be removed and it is between the screen and the outer housing and looks as if it does not come off, it does; trouble is you can leave small bits of polythene within the screen surround.
Price wise it seems expensive until you remember that it has a large capacity of storage, 4 Gb, AND that it can take a mini SD card which can boost it up to 8 Gb

In Two minds, 15 Mar 2008
This review is from: Jtek 4GB 4.3 Touchscreen MP3 / MP4 player / with Microsoft Play FX Software FM Radio, Voice Recorder and Jtek Extras Pack including Upgraded Earphones and Car Charger (Upgraded July 2010 Model) Also Available in 8GB and 16GB Versions
I received this product a couple of weeks ago. I have to say that the touch screen idea is very nice and worked very well. The sound was also very good. Then after about 4 days the headphone socket stopped working. I could hear it externally but that was not always convenient. Then the on/off button at the top came off. Generally it displayed a good sound and good visuals and the touch screen was neat but durability is not its strong point.
