This review is from: Visual Land V-Core 8 GB Video MP3 Player (Black/Silver) (Electronics)
This item arrived well packaged, super fast and fully charged!
It came in a hard plastic box with instructions, headphones, extra ear buds, usb cord, wall charger, and velvet pouch.
Pros:
1. Screen is very clear, bright and big enough to watch a movie or view pictures comfortably.
2. Did not have to convert music or movies. Just copied them over and they played perfectly. It didn't take long at all and it let me copy several files from different folders/formats simultaneously without freezing up.
3. Player seems sturdy enough to withstand being in a purse, book bag, or briefcase.

5. Accepted and read a 4gb micro SD with no problem.
6. Got great reception from the fm radio and it auto-set the stations. Equalizer is awesome.
Cons:

Had to return it at least Amazon is good on returns and provide shipping and everything.
Also the speaker on the back is about useless, can barely hear anything. The only reason I got this one was because it had more memory and allowed multiple formats. Instead now I got the Pro Ebiz 16gb one Pro Ebiz NEW 16gb 3" TFT Touchscreen Mp3 / Mp4 / Mp5 Player (Plays Avi/rm/rmvb/flv Without Conversion) it's same price 16gb, and larger screen, oh and the speaker on the back is 3x louder (but still nothing to brag about, at least I can actually use it in a quiet room), seems like same manufacturer of both devices but only time will tell if this one breaks down too.
Although I returned this item thought it would be worth mentioning, comparing this to...Read more
