Pleased overall - a good player for the money

review by: Mike Butcherrating:
os: Mac

I've only received this this morning, and so far am very impressed. Chose this player as it has some sort of playlist function which is lacking in other players below this price. A smart look & feel and feels a lot more expensive than it is. It's quite small, but feels nice in the hand.



Navigation takes a bit of getting used to, as I've only previously used the more famous music players which have that nice wheel on the front - however it's quite similar in a lot of ways. Volume buttons on the side also make this player stand out above the lower priced models. Also this player has a lot of features including video, voice recorded, radio etc.



My only problems so far have been getting it to work on a Mac, as it wasn't recognised on USB. For some reason, using the aftermarket USB card I'd had fitted to my Mac, the player is now recognised and can transfer files. Also, one main gripe is that it doesn't come with a mains charger - that is you must charge from your USB port, which if taking on holiday (one reason I bought this) is a bit annoying! Luckily I have bought a Veho FM transmitter for this player, which has a car adaptor, and so I think I can charge it in the car through the USB socket on the transmitter..



Well worth considering this player if you don't want to spend a fortune on a more famous make. Definitely the best I could find for under fifty pounds with 2Gb of storage and a full colour screen.
