Digital camera reviews of SanDisk Sansa Fuze 8 GB MP3 Player (Silver)

Digital camera Review: Definitely satisfactory
Summary: 4 Stars

I did some research before deciding on the 8 GB Fuze, and my overall reaction is that it is completely satisfactory. I have already had 2 ipods die on me (first a mini, then a classic 20GB) so I wasn't about to shell out any more money on apple MP3 players. The things I like most about this product are (1) the size and appearance, (2) the fact that you can add memory to it, and (3) being able to delete a song right off the device, which is something that always drove me crazy about my ipods.

I didn't have any trouble syncing my music from Windows Media Player, but it definitely took a long time the first couple of times that I loaded a lot of music on at once. I actually prefer using Media Player over iTunes - it doesn't take as long to boot up, and isn't perpetually asking me if I'd like to install update 5.0.0.1.5 or some ridiculous version.

The bonus is the FM radio - I installed all my presets with ease, and haven't been using it much, but it's just nice to know that it's there.

My ONLY complaint is that the screen got a nasty scratch on it really quickly. My own fault, obviously, but it's still frustrating that it wasn't a little more durable to hang out in my purse. I will definitely be purchasing a case & screen protector.
