Digital camera reviews of SanDisk Sansa m240 1 GB MP3 Player (Silver)
Digital camera Review: AVOID this player...or at least try one before you buy...
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought the first Sandisk MP3 player Christmas 2004 because it had a large screen and was $50 less than the comparable Iriver model. What a catastrophe! After returning version1 then version2 of their first model by RMA, they sent me the SANSA M240. These players do function, but as another reviewer warned, don't buy them for audiobooks or recorded radio programs. Sandisk is trying to cover up faults in their resume function capability. My M240 is resuming after power off as I am testing it, but overall this player is terrible. It doesn't even have settings to adjust the speed of the fast forward functions.
The sound on an Iriver or Samsung player is *much* better, and this M240 doesn't even have a directory structure for picking your selections. Sandisk customer service is an utter horror as well. Customer service was slow, often unanswered and they could *never* get their story straight. Deceptive to say the least...while their press releases boasted record company profits.
This player is a piece of plastic worthy of a prize in a box of cereal. Not much more. It will play your music, but buy an MP3 player with a "line in" function for MP3 encoding. Such players have superior electronics and you can record from any source including external microphone. Samsung and Iriver also have 3D sound and bass enhancements. Before you buy a "Scamdisk" player, TRY it first. I wish I would have. People have written good reviews, but I wonder if they have compared this player with others, or realized it's shortcomings. Sandisk is charging a quality price for a knock-off quality player. And as I mentioned, their customer service is the WORST I have experienced.
Digital camera Review: Add My Voice.....
Summary: 1 Stars
You can add my voice to the growing list of dissatisfied customers of this SanDisk product. Worked well for about 3 months, then froze. Customer service was little help.I am now awaiting a new one, as they supplied me with a shipping label to send mine back. After listening to some of the feedback here, I don't have high hopes that this one will last either.Digital camera Review: Almost famous
Summary: 3 Stars
This little MP3 player is just great...looks of music, records and plays FM..what a deal for the price! Unfortunately, it cannot play I-Tunes, due to Apples proprietary system, and has a fairly useless sorting protocol, meaning you have to run through your whole library to find anything. Its similar to the Apple Shuffle in that regard.
If you want to pay a little, play a lot, and tolerate some significant access deficiencies, this is your ticket!!
Digital camera Review: Almost perfect...
Summary: 5 Stars
I travelled recently to the woods. And everybody took their mp3 players with them. The trip was long and my CD player batteries died before arriving to our destination. So I decided it was time for buying a MP3 Player.
What I wanted:
1. 100 USD or less.
2. 1 GB.
3. External battery. Even in the middle of nowhere, I can buy a AAA battery or carry some replacements.
4. Mass Storage Device. I like a straight forward method for copying files. Just plug and drag your files.
5. Playlists and random function.
6.- Unicode support.
This player has almost all of them.
The sound quality is great. It has a software equalizer. Suports up to 320 kbps and VBR. You can play files by artist, album, year or genre. Sleep function.
I haven't used the voice recorder nor the FM radio.
What this device needs:
- A better carrying option.
- Support for unicode tags.
