Affordable MP3 player for the technologically inept!

bythriftymommy Jul 11, 2006
36 Helpfuls 37 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Price, ease of use, great for first timer like me!
Cons Only 120 songs may inhibit those more technologically savvy; can only use enclosed USB...
Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased a five of these handy dandy MP3 players for $18 each at a popular electronics store and decided to give technology a chance at impressing me. Since I still have cassette tapes and am grudgingly switching over to CDs (I've got a CD player in my minivan so I really didn't have... Read full review »

My Favorite Mp3 Player

bypink_rocker29 Jun 16, 2006
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros size, sound quality, menu features, extras (stopwatch, radio, voice recorder), display
Cons volume control jams at times, provided plastic case
Recommended it? Yes

I think SanDisk did a great job making this device. The Sansa M230 is about as long as my middle finger. It's pretty small so I can stash it anywhere.

*Controls*
The button controls are decent. The 4-way control on the player is very easily navigated. So is the selecting button. The... Read full review »

Great customer service

Pros EXCELLENT customer service from the company
Cons Display broke the first week. Whole unit broke in 3 months.
Recommended it? Yes

My husband bought this for me.

It was great for about a week. Then, the display broke completely!!! I was still able to use it, so I didn't bother to take it back. (Stupid, I know!) But I have an infant & it's not so easy to get out these days.

Literally, 3 months from the date... Read full review »

Not bad at all for the price.

Pros Good sound, low price, AAA battery, FM tuner, voice recording, stopwatch.
Cons Somewhat cheap build quality, user's guide on a CD-ROM.
Recommended it? Yes

The SanDisk Sansa m230 MP3 player is a full-featured player that should satisfy anyone's needs. For the price, the player has a lot of features. It plays MP3 and WMA files, of course - it also claims to work with subscription music, but I never tested that function. In addition, it has an FM tuner,... Read full review »

Good player, great price

byleighj Feb 26, 2006
1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great price, compact, FM radio, nice color, decent sound, needs only one AAA battery
Cons Can't delete songs easily, organizing music, cheap earphones, incredibly short USB...
Recommended it? Yes

Just got this unit at Office Depot for $29.99 with rebate (regular $79.99), so you really can't beat that! It has good sound, especially after playing around with the equalizer and using higher quality earphones. As for the 512 MB of memory, although I had considered the 1GB unit, I honestly think...

My First MP3 Player

byjudytrotter Feb 1, 2006
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Weight - Cost - Functionality
Cons Shape. No color display
Recommended it? Yes

Bought this player last week and love it to death! I love it's small portability and functionality - Simple. I'm not a computer person, so the ease of drag-n-drop with the USB cable was key to getting my songs onto the player. I use the voice recorder occasionally when I'm recording my 16-month...

A Solid Budget MP3 Player

byayk1987 Jan 29, 2006
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Low Price. Good fit and finish. Easy Menus. Great Sound.
Cons Battery costs add up. Orginizing music takes time.
Recommended it? Yes

For a budget MP3 player, the m230 is a great choice. It's half the price of an Ipod shuffle with equivalent memory. The headphones are nice as is the case and armband. Orginizing music is a slow process and I end up just putting it on shuffle. However, everything else is reached through quick and... Read full review »

Pretty Good Budget MP3 Player

byspeedee0077 Jan 27, 2006
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros PRICE!! 'Nuff Said
Cons Case is flimsy, 512MB memory is limited
Recommended it? Yes

This is my first venture into the realm of MP3 players and, I have to say, I'm quite impressed. I had a specific need to fill - small, CHEAP, no bells and whistles - something to help me get through the hum-drum of jogging/bicycling/exercising. The unit was totally compatible with Window Media 10... Read full review »

Pros Thought it was good at first
Cons Did not last me 3 weeks
Recommended it? No

I got the Sansa m230 for Christmas, and I liked it overall. I would keep it in my pocket. About 3 weeks after I had it, the LCD display cracked inside and I could not read the display anymore, but it still worked. The next day it stopped working all together. The store I got it at would not honor... Read full review »

Great little MP3

Pros easy to use, inexpensive, fm tuner
Cons slides around on armband
Recommended it? Yes

I read a bunch of reviews before I bought an mp3 player. This is the first one I have owned. I am very happy with it. I bought it primarily to use while working out. I liked the idea of being able to load music without having to install software on my computer. I just use Windows Media Player and... Read full review »
