Summary: bad 2006-04-06
Comment: it worked beautifully for like 5 months, then one day it suddenly broke. So I turned it on, got past the samsung logo and how much free space i had, then it just shut off and kept repeating that process. anyone know what's wrong with it? I purchased it overseas, so there was no point in trying to get it reparied or returned. Very upset and i don't recommend this player to anyone.

Summary: Good mini MP3 2005-04-13
Comment: I bought this unit as a pocket MP3 player + FM tuner. It is a solid unit ... I sent it through the washing machine with no ill effects.
Excellent sound. Only issue I have is battery life is < 10 hours on a new alkaline battery.

Summary: Good starter mp3 player 2005-04-01
Comment: This is my first mp3 player. I have seen and used other ones but this one is by far the best for its sise. I am going to review it in the following catigorys.
Durability: I have had this thing for 9 months, and I use this thing abusevly. Some times after droping it from about three feet/meter some of the songs begin to skip. But this can be solved by deleting the song and then resync the song back to the yepp.
Buttons: You have to be pretty thick to not understand how the butons work. There is a joystick on the front which skips songs and changes volume. On the top there is a hold button, this makes it to where even if you press alot of buttons it will still be playing the same song. Play/Pause Button, nothing complicated here. A-B button, this is one of the wierdest things I've seen. What it does is while a song is playing you press A once, then after any time you want press B once, then you will only hear the song between point A to point B, you press the A-B button to get it back to normal. And a record buton. Press it once to record, press it again to stop.
Software: I use my player by riping CD's and playing them on my yepp, I never download music. So after about an hour of tring to use the yepp software I gave up. Lucky for me the yepp works on WMP 9 and WMP 10, so it wasnt much of a problem after that. For using it on Windows Media I have encounterd no problems at all.
Song Playback: The sound quality is average. But you realy cant complain when your mp3 player can be used as a keychain. The only complaint I have with it is you can't put your songs in any order. And I dont think any thing you do can change that. You can however number your songs to the order you want. As for the display the only problem I have with that is the three bar batery display. When its on the last bar you don't know if you have 3 min. or 3 hours.
Overal: I highly recomend this mp3 player. I do not recomend it if you have over a gig of songs however.
Zero

Summary: Teenie Tiny and Very Simple to Use 2005-03-13
Comment: The size of the player is absolutely miniscule. It's like a short lighter and a bit fatter. Putting songs onto the device is very simple. You can literally drag the files from your computer onto the "Removable Storage" icon that pops up in My Computer when you plug the player in via the USB port.
The sound quality depends on what bit-rate you use for the music, but it's capable of great sound and even has different types of sound options if you like a certain type of sound (base, normal, vocal, etc.).
The only drawback is (as others have mentioned) that the player automatically plays the songs in alpha order. Since you can't really put too many songs on here anyway, I've gotten around it by just naming the songs "01 - Singer - Song Title" after I've dragged them onto the player. They'll play in number order then. Bit of a pain, but minor since you won't have to do this for 10,000 songs.
I'm very pleased with mine. Easy to use and good sound. Great for exercisers and gym rats who don't want to carry around a gigantic CD player or a heavier MP3 device.

Summary: A Little Blue Wonder 2005-02-20
Comment: This is a great little MP3 player to use during a daily commute that's small enough to completely hide in the palm of your hand.
No, it doesn't have the capacity of larger players or the clone-ish panache of the ubiquitous white iPod set but it does an honest job with ease of use and great sound (toss the ear buds that come with the unit and get a pair that sound good to you -- I use a pair of "The Bud" from Koss for great bass response).
Plug the unit into your computer and it shows up as a removable drive. Fill up the drive with MP3 or WMA files (I can fit about 60-70 wma files on the unit) and you're ready to go. The player also has a handy voice recorder for those impromptu sound bytes.
The 5-direction joystick is not hard to master and once your songs are loaded navigating through your music is instinctive. The display is essential to work through the menu trees when you want to adjust the player's audio or display settings.
The removable AAA battery means you'll never have to run out of juice when in the middle of your commute. Just pop in that spare battery carried along for just these types of emergencies and you're back online in less than a minute.
This player is not for audiophiles or for those with 30,000 song libraries, and it doesn't pretend to be, but for those who want a simple well built MP3 player with great sound quality.
