2GB SanDisk Sansa e250

Pros: SanDisk quality/reliability. Affordability_($25.00+free shipping). Uses one cheap, user-replaceable, "AAA" battery (conventional_or_rechargeable). Everything s included. Excellent sound!

Cons: Although "2GB" (up to 64 hours of audio) is_more_than_large_enough_for_the_majority-of_consumers, it's_not_as_gigantic_as_costlier_models'_capacities. Illuminated, blue-monochrome (not multicolor) display.

The Bottom Line: Cram up to 64 hours of music or audiobook files into this (supposedly) "obsolete" model! And you ll never have to spend big bucks to have its battery inconveniently "factory-replaced"!

Review: Prefatory note #1: As of this writing, you can still purchase this product via Amazon.com for only $25.00, which includes shipping and handling (and no sales tax). During the past several weeks, I ordered three of these units on...

Pros: Good battery life, FM radio, sound quality, photos, does video

Cons: Quicktime video results in big files, radio menu hard to get out of

The Bottom Line: Great for music, photos, and radio. Merely OK for video

Review: On a short list of digital audio players, the Sansa E250 stood out for a few reason which led to its purchase. First its rather small, it can display photos, play videos and tune in FM radio stations as well as record audio. Secondly, it has a slot...

Pros: The voice recording feature wasn't really needed, but it's alright

Cons: Everything that isn't the stupid voice recording feature

The Bottom Line: Crap

Review: I've had my share of crappy MP3 players in my day. From iPods not holding a charge after a couple months of having it to players with broken headphone jacks almost immediately, I've probably gone through at least 15 MP3 players. Never has there been...

Pros: Large storage, Video, Photos, Buttons easy to navigate.

Cons: Poor sound, "heavy," armband not included, battery charges from USB.

The Bottom Line: It was not the player for me. I run daily and need something lightweight with deep bass - video & photos were unimportant. Not a bad player, though.

Review: My beloved Iriver mp3 player (reviewed here in Sept. 2005: http://www.epinions.com/content_196321840772) started acting up after about 10 months of use. Luckily, I had a...

Pros: Great price, feature packed, big capacity, nice display. Uses good ol mp3's!

Cons: wheel feels funky after using ipod, limited accessories.

The Bottom Line: A great player for the money. Feature packed for a fraction of big apple's price.

Review: This is my third MP3 player, plus a second Gen ipod that I bought for my wife. This is a fantastic player, incorporating video, photo, mp3, fmradio and voice recording. The model I purchased was the 6gb flash model (e270), but it comes in a 2,4 and...

Pros: Easy file transfer, Excellent sound, Great video, Great price, and Easy to learn.

Cons: No wall charger included and File arrangement.

The Bottom Line: It is reliable, sturdy, FM receiver, huge video screen, voice recorder, plays videos, plays photo slideshows, replaceable battery, and above all else, sounds GREAT!

Review: Picked up two of these from Dell.com in December. I am not disappointed at all.

We've had them now for a month and a half and neither has locked up yet. No freezing, no stuttering, no problems at all.

The kids were wanting mp3...

Pros: Everything you look for in a music player. Video/Photos/Mic are pleasant bonuses.

Cons: Less Mac compatibility. No Wall Charger. FM Radio quality. Few accessories in stores.

The Bottom Line: Users looking for a compact and low-cost mp3 player that, well, plays music without fuss can look no further.

Review: When it comes to portable music players, there s no doubt that the iPod reigns supreme. Because of its high commercial appeal and the mere fact that practically every music player accessory seems to be tailor-made to its specifications, the iPod has...

Pros: Expandable capacity, small, light, upgradeable firmware with Rockbox, simple, stylish

Cons: A few hardware glitches, limited functionality without firmware updates

The Bottom Line: This player offers some great features and the potential for lots of storage space with a small price tag. With the Rockbox firmware, you'll end up with a stellar player.

Review: I just bought this Sandisk Sansa e250 2 GB media player for myself last week after reading up on it, and I have to say, it's exactly the kind of player I'm looking for. Everything I like about mp3 players is here, with nothing I hate (high sticker...

Pros: Expandable storage, scratch resis back, FM Radio, Recording, Record songs from Radio, replaceble battery

Cons: EQ Bugs, Freezes up, not loud enough, batt.replac. hard, headphone.jack make songs sound scratchy sometimes.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend if it was cheaper for people who cant afford an Ipod. But for the price I paid I might as wellve gotten an IPOD so NO.

Review: Ok Im guessing SanDisk was creating a comperable Ipod MP3 Player. This isnt factual but its sensible. They missed the mark.

The first Lil Monsta I bought, froze after I turned it on and played songs preinstalled. Played a video...

Pros: Inexpensive quality mp3 player. A great alternative to the iPod.

Cons: Does not work with iTunes

The Bottom Line: If you don't want to use the iPod, then this is the player for you. It is expandable, as well as high quality. I supports most standard music formats.

Review: Introduction

With the ubiquitous iPod becoming the standard mp3 player for most, Sandisk and their competitors have a lot of work to close the gap simply producing a better gadget isn t good enough, they have to provide a full...
