Digital camera reviews of SanDisk Sansa m240 1 GB MP3 Player (Silver)
Digital camera Review: A GREAT MP3 PLAYER
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm 14 and my Sansa is my first MP3 Player. I've had it for about three weeks and it has every thing I wanted in a MP3 Player.
*Pros: You can choose to listen to your music by artist, genre, album, and all your songs in alphabetical order. I also like that you can scroll through all your songs instead of having to skip through all of them (it is a great time saver). Once you understand how to load songs on to your Sansa it is really easy and does not take much time at all. I really like the ear buds it comes with, they are long enough so you can easily put your Sansa in your pocket.
*Cons: Like I said, I've only had my Sansa for three weeks and so far there are no problems.
Digital camera Review: A Good Buy!
Summary: 4 Stars
There's a lot of good things about this product: the big screen, the quality sound, the easy access menu, and the ease of syncing songs on to it. Another cool feature is that it will remember exactly where you were when power is turned off (either by the user's choice or when the battery runs out). Just a couple of things that I didn't like: there isn't much of a shuffle or random play mode. It will initially set a play order and it will stick to that order, and that the screen only lights up for the initial seconds when it is turned on or when it is being turned off. It would be nice to have a way to turn the light on while it is playing.
Some other things, the ear buds are about as good as you would expect, battery life is decent, and there's more than enough room to fit the amount of files on to the player that is stated in the product info. I would definitely recommend this product.
Digital camera Review: A Good Product Overall, But Not Without Its Flaws
Summary: 4 Stars
If you're not a techie and/or don't have the latest computer software and hardware, this MP3 Player is for you. It's easy to use and relatively inexpensive. This isn't some device that'll do everything for you but make you delicious sandwiches (give Bill Gates six months for that feature to come out), but if you just want to listen to music, I recommend the SanDisk line.
There are some minor problems, however. The battery life the product information promises is grossly exaggerated. It's more like 9-10 hours per battery, though to be fair I do buy the cheapo store brand batteries. Another unexpected problem is the data retrieval system. I have often found that, after adding and/or deleting songs, other songs that were not touched in that session suddenly don't register as there. When I hooked it back up to the computer the songs were in the window, but the device itself didn't show them as existing. Sometimes I have had to delete the song via the computer and then reload it for it to 'read'. I have even deleted songs through the computer window only to have them still on the SanDisk Player! How's that for a unique problem?
Touchy data retrieval aside (though sometimes the player also has trouble with the file names, stamping "Unknown" in the middle of the scrolling title), this is a decent player and a good bargain if you're not looking for a perfect music player. It sure beats paying over $100 or using some cheap, dollar store FM receiver!
Digital camera Review: A Great Product For an Even Greater Price
Summary: 5 Stars
This mp3 player is my second. My first died on me after a few weeks of owning it. I was wary of buying another, in fear that it would also break. However, I read some good reivews for this product, and now that I own it I would suggest it to everyone wanting a high-quality, low-price mp3 player.Digital camera Review: A MUST HAVE
Summary: 5 Stars
THIS IS A GREAT LITTLE MP3 PLAYER AND A MUST HAVE.
Its simple to use and a great buy for the $$$$$$. Don't pass this one up
