Philips SA2925R/37 2 GB Flash Audio Video MP3 Player with Month of Rhapsody Music (Black)

I've using it for several months now when I work out. I'm very pleased with it. My wife also has a Phillips MP3 player, different style. I like mine better because it has a lanyard and just pushing the sides of the screen is easier than the smaller control buttons she has on hers. They both sound good.

I noticed lately I have purchased a lot of Phillips products, a small stereo, two matching 47' LCD TV's, and wired headphones for the TVs. I have been pleased with all of the products.

The sound quality isn't too bad. The battery life is okay. The only problems I have had with the player is that it won't shut down correctly, and takes several tries before it goes off. The shuffle function is pretty horrible. I have 500+ songs on it and I hear the same song playing every 10 songs. If you aren't getting a deal on this one, I would advise not buying it.

This is the best mp3 player, for its size. The customer service, at Philips, are also the best at getting issues resolved, quickly; plus they are all super-nice, even when I sounded frustrated. A couple of times this mp3 player shut off for no obvious reason---and each time that I talked to someone, they knew exactly how to resolve these weird, little dilemmas. So now I know how to handle these situations. For all of the information that this mp3 player handles, including the awesome artist's graphics displayed during each song, it's actually surprising that a brief orientation on which buttons to push when it does shut off is all that's required to get on with life---letting in only the sounds that you want while keeping out the ones that you don't:)
Oh yeah, the Rhapsody 'drag-n-drop' software is well-suited to this mp3 player, which also syncs up to all the other tracks that you already have stored---excellent:)
