Excellent little mp3 player. Build quality is great, the sound is very good (with a reasonable pair of headphones) and it is very usable. Mp3s are loaded with an easy drag and drop onto the drive and then a simple control mechanism.

The normal USB plug allows it to be easily plugged into any free USB port without needing to carry a wire to charge it (it sounds like a small point, but always having to pack a specific wire just in case quickly becomes very irritating on a long journey), and it also allows it to be used as a USB pen drive.

The little character is annoying, but you won't be looking at him for long. Overall a great buy, I've recommended it to all my friends over the smaller iPods.

Excellent 27 Oct 2009
Lightweight with plenty of storage. It's good and loud and the earphones fit well and even stay in when jogging. Radio and dictaphone features are handy. There's other gimmicky features too.

You don't need to bother with the Samsung software because you can drap and drop mp3s straight to the music folder. Player also plays flac files.
Haven't noticed anything negative.

Reliable
Good product. Reliable. It serves my purpose. The only shortcoming for me is that it takes 30sec to turn on.

Good value for the money
I think this MP3 player is worth its price, but there are some issues with it. First of all, after Windows installed its driver, it did not appear as a normal, USB drive anymore:... Read more

great for recording radio
I don't use this as an MP3 in the usual way as I already have an MP3 - I bought this to record radio shows so that I can listen to them when I want to. Read more
