SanDisk Sansa Fuze 1.9" Silver 8GB Video MP3 Player

Pros: I really love the Sansa Fuze it is easy to use. *Works well with widows Media Player (you don't need to download a separate program to transfer songs). * The buttons are easy to use * Has a built in radio feature *The battery is long lasting *Has a battery saver and will shut off if left on without being touched (not sure how long it takes for it to turn off though) *The player automatically sorts your songs into folders so you can play all your music or pick a specific band to listen to.

Cons: The ear buds that it comes with are on the cheap side so I would suggest having a different pair to use. The player has 20 pre- downloaded songs on it, Which can be removed one by one but can be annoying sense I did not see a delete all option.

Pros: Excellent Player, I bought 2 refurbished players and have used both for more than 1 year. Best player for the money. Files can be added to player by Copy and paste from a computer, no additional software, very reasonably priced, Micro SD slot supports cards up to 32 GB (8GB built in for a total of 40GB). Capable of "Bookmarking" in Audiobooks and in Videos. Does a good job displaying video, considering the screen is just over an inch square. Video must be converted before adding to the player. Software is provided, but check the Sansa forums for more versatile programs. Cheap, Large Capacity, Expandable storage, Easy to update (no iTunes, Audacity, or AppStore needed) - BUY THIS PLAYER

Cons: Scratches easily, so use a case or skin to protect screen, Menues for videos are rather limited (You must select videos one at a time, can not play an entire folder of videos or add videos to a playlist. No such limit for songs). When the song database is created at startup, can "only" support 8,000 titles. You can still get to songs by browsing folders, but not through normal menus. This is not much of a limitation, but 40GB (8 Internal + 32 External) could hold more than 8,000 songs. Sometimes converting videos for the player will cause the sound to get out of synch with the video.

Overall Review: Download Videoconverter (third party software) to make it easier to modify video for the player and to generate playlists (this is not very intuitive with provided software). One Playlist can not reference both the internal memory and SD card. Overcharging the battery will sometimes result in a solid white screen and you either have to wait for battery to discharge or reset unit by holding switch in off position for 15 seconds (or sometimes by ejecting sd card). Has happened to me 3-4 times, but was always recoverable. Song titles can support non English characters, I listen to KPOP songs and have titles with both English and Hangul characters in them and they display correctly.

Pros: Very long lasting battery life. I bought this mp3 player for work as I drive Forklift and need something that can last for at least 10 hours battery life. It was about half way charged when I received it and I uploaded some music for the day for work and made it all 10 hours without even the battery coming close to being dead, was still in the green. My Wifes iPod Nano doesn't even come close to his, I love it very much. I already had a 8gb Micro SD card which I expanded it to a whooping total of 16gb. I actually fit all of my music on the built in 8gb, and keep personal pics and videos on the expansion slot.

Cons: None at all

Overall Review: Sadly I Scratched the screen already. But I ordered a hard plastic cover for it which I highly recommend if you plan on using it a lot.

Pros: Good UI. Great sound quality. 8GB gives tons of space for media. Lasts a long time between charges.

Cons: Just after the 30 day NewEgg return policy ran out, the Fuze began to randomly shut itself off in the middle of playing a song. Turning it back on, it resumed where it left off.

Overall Review: I contacted Sansa's technical support, requesting an RMA. Instead of the RMA, I received a polite, boilerplate response, instructing me to the reset the player. After that, it would not power on again. Sent a second request for an RMA and am awaiting a reply.

Pros: I have a couple of these. The original Sansa Fuze is the best for a couple reasons for playing computer based music files. The key being, it can be RockBoxed, with the special firmware, then turns into an audiophile and compatibility powerhouse. You can play FLAC files or older Shorten file formats directly and have a custom multi band parametric EQ with the Rockbox. Much better sound than Ipod. Much lower price. Just the best. Get an add on card for up to 40 GB total memory. Run lossless compressed FLAC files, not lousy MP3's. Version 1 has the dial for control, which is preferred over the newer Version 2 Fuze.

Cons: Had a screen crack on one. Must get a separate hard shell plastic case for these to be safe. Some have problems with the audio jack. I leave my phones in all the time to not use it much. I've not had any problems.

Overall Review: Great for a reman price. Buy them while you can.

Pros: Works, price, easily sync with Windows Media player. What more can you ask for with a standard MP3 player

Cons: Older model, no dedicated cases or skins available. Ended up modifing parts dedicated for other players to fit.

Pros: Easy to use. No itunes! No having to sync and screw with software issues. Drag and Drop ease.

Cons: Worked for a week. Now it has a blank screen and won't shut off. Gonna wait for the battery to die and try again.

Overall Review: I really don't want to have to pay quadruple for something that has an "i" in front of it's name. But if I get more products like this I might have to resort to that.

Pros: Memory + micro sdhc support, PRICE, features, rockbox capable, video playback (not with rockbox though). Available accessories. Battery life.

Cons: None really, but I had to go through a couple that froze up on me. But this one I have now has been great... LOVE it.
