Consumer review (newegg.com)

Not worth it

Do yourself a favor. Look for other MP3 players. With the current price (no rebate), you can find a lot better quality MP3 player.

Can be used as a flash drive instead of MP3 player..... lol

The earphone is DOA. After using it for a month, it stops and needs restart after playing a couple of songs. You need to reformat and reload your music. Not sure when the problem will be back again. The rebate program is a joke. It has been 4 months...

A good buy.

Just about everything.

No instruction manual however even those with very little tech knowledge can master this in about an hour.

DO NOT BUY, RIPOFF

NONE, NADA, ZINC, NO PROS

I would give this a negative 10 stars if it were possible. This mp3 player is a total ripp off. It works well for a few weeks, then it starts to cut off after playing one song or so ; I tried to contact the company----no answer. I personally think that...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Cheap, but bad design

This is one of the cheapest 2 GB players out there, but I don't think it's worth it.

Cheapest 2 GB player out there. Fits hands comfortably when you go out to run

When you have it on random or shuffle mode, it takes about 2 or 3 seconds for it to get to the next song, it's very annoying. The volume button sticks out too MUCH. I was afraid it was going to get stuck when I first got it. As it turns out 3 months...
