I was looking for a good value MP3 player and after reading around various sites for reviews etc opted for the Archos 18 Vision - and I'm very glad I did!

The price is extremely competitive, especially for an 8GB memory which I have yet to fill up. The battery life is brilliant, I think I have only charged it 4 times in around two months and I use it for at least 2 hours a day, if not more. The unit is compact and sleek and has a nice feel to it. The controls are pretty easy to get used to and you can create a favourites list just on the player, or more of your own playlists when plugged into your computer.

It is very easy to add/remove music, just a case of drag and drop really. The order of tracks is sometime s alittle muddled but I think that is mostly down to my own poor labelling of files, so if your music is well organised I wouldn't anticipate any issues.

Sound quality is excellent, the supplied earphones are fine, I only replaced them because I prefer ones that clip over my ears - the other sort just fall out! There is no charger as it charges when plugged into your computer via USB cable, but you can get a charger for around £4 if you need one.

Highly recommended as budget MP3 player with ;lots of extra features, including FM radio.

I have had the ARCHOS 18 Mp3 player for just over a month now and don't regret the decision to buy it. It simple yet effective, if your like me and just want a good drag and drop Mp3 player where you don't have to load software ever time you want to add a new album then this is a good choice.

The main advantages of this Mp2 player are:
- No software need drag and drop straight into the file directory.
- Simple interface.
- Well mapped out buttons.
- Built in FM radio (although I don't use this very often it seems good enough).
- Small lightweight with a good battery life (I only have to charge it once a weeks and I use it for about 4/5 hours a day).

There are a few problems with it such as:
- No lock button so buttons can get pressed in your pocket by accident.
- Audio quality could be better but it still good.
- Video function is a novelty but the screen it too small for it to be much use. The same goes for the picture function.

It all its a good Mp3 player and that's what I think is important.

Nice looking 15 Feb 2011
I bought the Archos as a replacement for my old Sony MP3 that I carelessly lost. I use it mainly for motivational and educational home study cd courses.

Now perhaps its me but I have tried quite a few times to put them in order and looking at them on my laptop,in the Archos drive, all the cd's and the tracks thereon are in order, but once I disconnect and check the Archos, some of the tracks are missing, or jumbled up.

This is a real frustrating problem as the cd's have to be listened to in sequence. The intructions are a little sparse to say the least, and I cant seem to rectify this issue.

The unit feels good to the touch but the interface seems far to cumbersome for my liking.

Would I buy another ? Well I am considering replacing this with a more standard Sony MP3 so you'll just have to draw your own conclusions.
