MP3 Players > $50 - $80 MP3 Players > by Battery run time

Advantages: sound quality, ear phones, size
Disadvantages: operating buttons, there are better models now

...bought it for Christmas, 2006. Apple iPods were rage at that time, so are now. What I liked about it at that time is it's size and design. It was a beautiful lavender color piece very small in size compared to the music players available at that time. Added to this, the 2GB size memory was a GRAND at that time. Since I love listening to music, it was a delight having it at that time. Features The best feature for me about this player is the option ...
...really like this option. I love to load as many songs as possible on to the music player and love to listen to them liesurely. In such case it would be more enjoyable if different songs from different albums can be listened to everytime. It would be a bit tiring to listen to all songs of an album and then going to the next album and so on. This, for me, is a great innovation in the field of music players. Since I am writing about the description ... Read review

Advantages: It has all of the features except lyrics display.
Disadvantages: The quality of videos is HORRIBLE!!

I have this MP3 player and overall, I think that it is pretty good. You can play music on it and see your pitures. But, one thing that I don't like about it is, it says that you can see the lyrics for the song that you want to listen to, but you can't!!!!! I can watch videos on it but the quality isn't very good. Overall, I would say that it meets my needs, but, I want some features to actually work. It does have an E-Book viewer, you can't text ...
...know why they say that though. I like the E-Book viewer because so far, it has saved me at least 20 times. I am 13 and I go shopping a lot. It shows me what I need to get and some things that I can get as an extra. I can also use it for notes and stuff. You can use the E-Book as a flash drive if you like. If it is a file like Windows Media Player, you can't use it on the MP3 player, but, if you hook it into another computer you can use it on that ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to upload and use
Disadvantages: Died after 3 months

I received this MP3 Player as a Christmas gift in 2006. This was a terrible, low quality MP3 Player. Although it was easy to use in terms of uploading music, manuevering through the menus, playing music, etc, there were several occasions when it would shut off and restart on it's own when I was walking or riding the subway, almost as if it was rebooting itself. There was even music skipping like a CD would skip. I didn't use the MP3 Player often, ...
...to read on my way to and from work. So when it stopped working all together within 3 months of receiving it, I was shocked at how short the lifespan of it was. I charged it for a couple of hours and when I disconnected it from the charger, it just kept shutting down within seconds of turning it on. There were a few occasions when I let it sit for days, recharge it and again it would just shut down within seconds. My mother in law also had one that ... Read review

Advantages: Good playback, nice design
Disadvantages: Bit pf a copy on the Ipod which is smaller, with more capabilities.

My friend has this Sansa and I have used it many times, on one occasion I borrowed it! It was very neat and pleasing to use. The screen is very nice and clear, although maybe not up to the ipod quality. The scroll wheel in the centre resembles the ipod in many ways, however I feel it is a failed attempt at copying the ipod signature design! The 4GB memory is very decent, its great for storing all the music and pictures, even audiobooks a person ...
...the ipods fiddly itunes program for uploading music, it is simply drag and drop from your documents. This is also handy if your computer crashes, because your music is backed up on the Sansa. The headphones weren't amazing, I couldn't really put them in my ears properly, so I had to use my own in ear ones, which are much better. This product is great for the money my friend paid, I was seriously considering getting one myself, but I eventually chose ... Read review

Advantages: portable, lots of memory
Disadvantages: nagating through menu

I purchased this Apple IPod nano with 8 GB May of 2008. the features are great, you can spend alot of time filling this iPod with photos, videos, music podcasts, and lots of other stuff. The one drawback is the battery life is not that great. It comes with a usb cable to recharge the battery using your pc, which is very convenient. I have loaded about 540 of my favorite songs on it so far. Navagating the volume feature is tricky for a first time ... Read review
