 Fantastic Value

| | See all RevenantDisciple's reviews (3)

This is fantastic value for money. Now i don't mean that the faults can be passed cause its cheap because there are no faults. The headphones aren't 'short' as previously mentioned they are necklance headphones. Once hook onto the mp3 player the device hangs on the neck. Its extremely comfortable and after a year of owning this the headphones to work perfectly which is a first for me.

The player is also a 4gb flash pen, there is nothing the player can't carry and if its not a music file the music library won't note it on the onscreen list so adding files wont clutter you music list.

I personally bought this along with a aaa recharger pack from play.com all coming to around £27 which in my opinion is still worth the cost of the player. The menu is easy to use and there are plenty of options to change settings/preference of play.

If you after a cheap mp3 player or even a 4gb flash pen, this is ideal.

I am very happy with his product. I actually have bought 2 of these, one for me and one for my fathers friend who wanted one. I am also buying another one now for my brother. I am going to buy another for myself as I broke the other they arent light weight though im just heavy handed. A great buy.

 Just 1 fault

I bought this MP3 player about a year ago and it works great. I must admit, when it first arrived in the post I thought it looked a little tacky, and I thought it probably wouldn't last long, but I haven't had any trouble with it. If I have a complaint it would be the shuffling issue.
When you put songs on this MP3 player it automatically sorts them into folders according to artist and album, and unfortunately you can't shuffle between all your songs, only between the songs in a single folder. To get around this problem I emptied all the songs into a single folder. This means I can shuffle between all of them, but in order to find a particular song I have to search through all my music. Still, if you don't think that will bother you I would recommend this product.

 Disappointing, but it's under £20

4GB is very good for under £20, and the sound quality's not bad. It's not of the highest quality material, but for a cheap 'n' cheerful MP3 player, it's servicable. However, although it lists the 'shuffle' feature in its description, this is not quite the shuffle option on most players. You can shuffle between songs within individual folders, but you can't (or at least I can't, and I've checked on the website and it seems to be the same) shuffle songs across all folders. So you tend to be a bit stuck with the play list. It's a shame, because it's not a bad little player, easy to use and fairly robust, and if it only had a proper randomising shuffle feature, it would have been great, but (and this depends on what you want from an MP3 player) I found this to be an irritating blindspot in an otherwise decent product.

 Navigating via albums not songs

Got this 20 minutes ago. Excellent value for money. Bought for my mum for the beach. It'll be great for that!

For those who cant navigate via album. In playback press mode. select DIR Navigation using mode button. Use skip forward button to move down through list of albums. Use mode button to select album then go to the song you want to start from using skip forward button and select using mode.
