Amazon.com Product Review--Posted July 7, 2008
The Samsung S2 isn't just an MP3 player; it's a must-have accessory to take with you--when you're running errands, at the gym, or wherever you go. It's shaped like a pebble and can be worn like a pendant around your neck, giving you complete freedom. Super compact, it's also available in five hot colors and easily fits in the palm of your hand. With MP3, WMA, and OGG file playback for up to 13 hours, you'll enjoy all your favorite tunes on the go.
Great things come in small packages, as proven by the Samsung S2.

Great bang for buck,

I took a small financial risk on this product and was pleasantly surprised. I was looking for something small, portable, simple, easy to use, AND with the On/Off "bookmark" feature. The "bookmark" feature was not listed anywhere so I didn't know if it had it. I've been told the IPOD shuffle does not start where you left off when you turn it off and then on again. The Samsung S2 Pebble does have this "bookmark" feature. So, if you decide to take a break in the middle of a podcast, you don't have to listen to the whole thing again when you turn it back on! Plus, it's light, charges easily, works as a simple USB device, easily transfers files with a PS3, and fits in my running shorts pocket with alternate headphones. Great product at a reasonable price!

Move over Shuffle!!,

I purchased this player because it support WMA files that are DRM protected. I was looking for an alternative to my iPod shuffle which only support AAC and MP3 files. This player does have the added feature of bookmarking your last track. This feature is very handy when listening to long tracks found on audiobooks. (The shuffle does not have this option) It has a decent sound quality and the buttons are much easier to manipulate when compared to the shuffle. The obvious downside is the lack of LCD window when skipping tracks. This was expected given the amazon picture. Transferring files was a breeze I was able to copy 6 audiobooks (unabridged) before it was full and with a 13 hour play time per charge I look forward to getting alot of use out of this pebble.
