MobiBlu B153

 

If MP3 player battery lives competed in a marathon, the MobiBlu B153 would run circles around the competition.

The MobiBlu B153 offers unbeatable battery life as well as nifty features such as an FM radio, line-in recording, and SRS Wow sound effects. Podcast Ready software comes loaded on the device, allowing for automatic updating of subscribed podcasts from...

The MobiBlu B153's design is blah, and navigation is strictly via folder trees, so there's no sorting by artist, album, genre, and so on. Also, the screen is small in relation to the device.

Introduction 1.237KB,0m53sFor those of you interested in a little story about brand name recognition: there's a nice couple of paragraphs to be found in our previous MobiBLU review (the DAH-2000 one). Please refer to said review for some background...

The MobiBLU B153 was quite the experience for me to review. A player that boasts a 153 hour battery life obviously seemed worth our precious time, but we also needed to keep track of the actual "relevance value" here. Keep in mind that it takes about...
