Well designed

The one thing this does excellently is simplicity. No fiddling around with cables on the computer just plug it in directly via usb and burn away. It only has shuffle capabilities and has a 512mb flash internal memory - which for this day and age is...

Putting the record straight...

There are a FEW harsh comments about this product on this site that I feel need to be addressed. I have sold over 100 of this Philips model in my shop during the past year. We have experienced some returns due to headphones but in no greater quantity...

Inadequate

I've had this MP3 player for about 10 months now, admittedly I was in a hurry so I bought one of the cheapest ones I could but this model doesn't offer anything special like voice recording or a radio. But the worst thing is that about 4 months ago,...

This mp3 player is neat and compact, however beware the external control cable, as it is prone to breaking. Mine has stopped working after only about 4 months. If you're going to buy an mp3 player, get one with controls on the device, as the...

This MP3 player os average

When i first got my Philips mp3 player, i found the instructions very easy to follow. I agree with the 2nd comment in that it has a reasonable battery life, and the outer casing is a very good idea.

Disappointing MP3 player

For the money there are much better MP3 players available. This has very limited battery life, storage and will not fit most USB ports. It has 420MB, not 512 as it says. Only buy this if you are getting it at a really low price, and even then consider...
