5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Value For Money!, 4 Sep 2009

By	D. R. Aldridge (London UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Archos 2 8GB MP3 Player/Radio - Black (Electronics)

I bought this MP3 player for music on the bus and while riding my bike, so I took no notice of the video options. However, I checked out the sample video and it is amazing, if the screen is a bit too small. I still only use the player for music, and it is amazing. This is my first MP3 player and I am highly impressed, it feels solid and the music quality is amazing. It looks good, although the chrome picks up fingerprints easily, and is sleek and lightweight, perfect for carrying in a pocket. For the money, this is the best MP3 player I have seen on the market bar none, and I did a lot of research before choosing to buy this player. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Value, 9 July 2009

By	A. Brace (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Archos 2 8GB MP3 Player/Radio - Black (Electronics)

Bought this for long distance cycling. Very good value.

First impressions

As a whole seems solid, buttons are a bit flimsy, but very good build quality for the price. Much better than a sandisk i have used before.

Audio quality is good, don't bother with the included headphones, get some in ear ones, much more comfortable. Although generally the standard headphones for all mp3 players are terrible.

File transfer over USB is quick and easy. Charges through mini usb aswell. Just plugged the player straight in and started transferring, no silly software.

Radio works ok and is relatively easy to use.

I haven't tried the video feature, other than watching the demo video. Doubt i will put any videos on this as I will use my Archos 605 for that.

All in all very good value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Archos 2 Mp3 player, 1 Sep 2009

By	John Errington "jle" (Rowlands Gill, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Archos 2 8GB MP3 Player/Radio - Black (Electronics)

Lovely compact MP3 player with a Li battery that charges from any USB port. Easy to use just looks like another drive on the PC. I use Media Jukebox to manage mp3's and it transfers files to the Archos with no difficulty.
I couldnt believe how many albums it holds - just seems to keep on accepting them.
The menu system is great, you can choose artist, album, or track and quality is superb. Simple controls, easy to use. OK I love it!

What I'd like - a bigger brighter screen so I can use it in the car.
