Truly Pic 'N Roll MP313X

 

Truly was one of the first companies to offer a photo-friendly MP3 player, but as this market becomes more saturated, it remains to be seen if the Hong Kong-based company can hold its own.

Nice color LCD; SD card slot; photo viewer; FM radio; voice recorder; line-in recording to MP3; small and light; MP3 and WMA DRM playback.

Weak battery life; poor music-management and transfer software; subpar track organization on device; no autofill function; not Janus compatible.

Although the Truly Pic 'N Roll MP313X is a compact, photo-friendly MP3 player, it's ruined by poor syncing software and a half-baked music-organization structure.

Good little player

 

Get the firmware update from the website, adds many more features. Works great with Linux, even the firware update didn't require windoze.

For no bigger than this thing is it has a lot of features. Screen has good resolution. Easy to navigate menus. Overall good little player for the money

Built in Lithium ion battery. Screen is almost impossible to see outside in full sun

Truly 1.85" Black 1GB MP313X

 

The FM radio was a little confusing fo me at first, but I got it figured out. Recording FM doesn't work too well, when it was recording it gets nothing but static. There's only two simple games, but I got it to play MP3s, not games. It also has a...

useful as a language repeater

 

The CNET review on this product was negative because the song list is poorly organized. I don't listen to music, so this issue does not apply to me. I looked hard for this and bought it from Fry electronics because on the web I found the designation ...
