    I don't know why some people have given this a bad review here. If you want an mp3 player with a screen then go and buy one. This is a great little mp3 player (without a screen) for anyone who wants a really lightweight simple to use music player for running purposes. I used to use my phone or an ipod, but found them to be cumbersome, and it slightly affects your running style having a weighty object strapped to your arm, or in your pocket. I saw this on amazon and it seemed a perfect solution.

    Having used it for about 2 months now I can confirm it is exactly what I needed. It is barely noticeable clipped into the waistband of my running shorts. The sound quality is fine - although I use my own headphones which are more comfortable for running. Another great thing about it is that in 2 months, despite using it for about 45 mins three times a week, I have not had to recharge the battery since the first charge.

    I would highly recommend for runners.

    Very disappointing... 28 Mar 2010
    By Tom Lee
    When I saw this MP3 player I thought it would be perfect for me. It's small, good value and from a decent brand, however I was really disappointed. First the positives (there aren't many!) The player is nicely made and finished, with a quality soft touch finish (although the buttons feel rather cheap), it looks pretty good and it's light and discrete, just what you want from this type of MP3 player. However the sound quality is really bad. Lots of hiss and static. It's awfully slow to respond, with multiple button presses often needed for the player to register your input. When in the normal playback mode it refuses to play the music in alphabetical/folder order, instead it plays them by date added order which was very confusing and frustrating (especially when I first got it, the playback order seemed to make little sence and thought I was in shuffle mode!). The clip is also pretty weak and not very deep so is only good for clipping onto thin clothing. Avoid or be disappointed.

    Rubbish 31 Jan 2010
    Play/pause button did not work properly and volume controls did not work at all.I think someone had already returned it once as their were files already written to it.I returned it again for a refund. Buy something else such as the Alba 2gb mp3 player available for not much more if you shop around-also has a screen.I bouhgt one as a replacement and it is far better.

    Bad, and then some.
    Uses the 3.5mm jack as a USB port, requiring a special cable to connect. When it connects (in XP-SP3, its fine on Linux) it causes any other external USB drive to disconnect. Read more
