The Samsung YP-K5 4 GB Audio Player is a lightweight MP3 player that is loaded with features, such as an innovative touch screen, FM radio receiver, and a built-in speaker. This compact audio player also doubles as a mini boom box, and defies engineering logic by somehow squeezing a high-end music player--complete with a unique slide-out speaker--into a slim, compact device. The K5 also makes it easy to access your complete music library by interfacing with your PC to quickly and easily download music files (MP3 and WMA) via USB 2.0. This MP3 player is PlaysForSure-compatible, stores up to 1,000 songs on 4 GB of memory, and features a playback time up to 30 hours with earphones (up to six hours with the speaker).

This device is built with an attractive, slide-out speaker that features DNSe--Samsung's proprietary Digital Natural Sound engine technology. DNSe delivers virtual surround sound with great volume, no distortion, and a natural and accurate high-quality sound. A gentle nudge from your thumb and forefinger effortlessly positions the speaker for optimal sound acoustics. At the same time, the K5 utilizes an interface that switches from a vertical, personal-use view to a horizontal, shared-use view. And with a minimum number of keys, simplified system, and a stylish, minimalism look, the K5 is all about functionality, without sacrificing style, and superior performance. In addition, five preset equalizer modes allow you to customize the sound experience to suit your style of music. These advanced music functions will allow you to enjoy an acoustic experience that you'd expect from your home stereo. And for times when you just want to keep the music to yourself, you can use the included state-of-the-art earphones with two-part earbuds that offer a bass-enhanced sound experience.

With the K5 in hand you can also tune in FM radio, so you'll never miss your favorite broadcasts. The device also features a digital alarm clock that you can personalize with your choice of music. And to make sure you never miss an appointment, the alarm will automatically sound even when the K5 is switched off. No alarm is complete without a snooze option, so if you need a few extra winks, just hit snooze and go back to sleep. At night, a timer function and auto turn-off enable you to ease yourself into sleep with your favorite tunes without draining your battery. You can also enjoy a personalized picture slideshow as you listen to your K5. The 4 GB device stores up to 25,000 photos and allows you to take memories with you anywhere, anytime. Use your photos as your MP3 player's screen saver, beautifully displayed on the OLED screen in brilliant 128x160 pixel resolution. With superior sound, an innovative slide-out speaker design, and a simple, functional interface, the K5 is designed to exceed your expectations.
