WONDERFUL BUT GPS ONLY WORKS ONE WAY
on January 28, 2013
Posted by: Nitpicker
from Missouri
Expertise:Intermediate
I love this thing. The only con is the GPS will guide you to where you are going but not back, so you better remember the way back or you could be lost. Hopefully they will have a fix for this soon.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, the right size, great touch screen
Cons: gps one way only
I would recommend this to a friend!

Do not buy this obsolete device

Expertise:Expert
I got this as a present last year and everything was normal for about two months. Then it became laggy, glitchy, and froze half, if not more, of the time I used it. THe OS is incrediblely old. It seems Samsung does not want to update it. Don't pain yourself, it's easier to get a phone and not connect it to a network.
DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS PRODUCT

Love this device but not enough storage

Expertise:Intermediate
I bought this device when my Zune died (went for an accidental swim in the ocean) and I like it a lot but it won't hold all of my music or even all of my audible books. I have added the max 32 GB SD chip but have to keep deleting media and swapping in new. (My Zune was 120GB.)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: not enough storage capacity
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this device. I had to get one when my sister got the 3.6 galaxy player. I wanted a better one. So I went to look for a "better" one and I found this one. It has everything I need! Its even better than my phone honestly. Not just me that has one but my boyfriend too! We both love our galaxys'.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy-to-use

Great pocket media device
on January 21, 2013
Posted by: LoveMyDroidDevice
Expertise:Intermediate
I love this thing. Works great for internet, email, twitter, facebook, pandora and youtube. MP3's, of course, and movies too. Bonus that it supports MKV format. Much quicker response and better value than icompany 4. Also, easier to access and load from the computer. Plug it in and the device and sd card are recognized as drives. Just drag and drop. Beats the other guys inoise only access. My only real complaint is that the software hasn't been updated to ICS or JB yet. That would make it a 5 star item easily. Don't get me wrong though, it works very well with the current software and I haven't seen any limitations in my use. Found a great custom case for it online to protect it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Product but leaves me wanting quad core
on June 21, 2012

Expertise:Expert
I Like everything about this device...
BIG Plus is the Stereo speakers...
Nice sound and sound level...!!!
Nice sound and sound level...!!!
I have run almost 300 different apps and only a select few gave me any problems... probably due to ram/cpu/running multiple apps at once.
I would love to see better games, as the single cpu is simply a little aged for today's mobile devices...
I must say that the SCREEN is big, and very bright, with extreme vivid colors! Way to go!
I will be using this as my PRIMARY device until Samsung comes out with a quad core version! (Yes... I'm already waiting!)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color
Cons: needs more cpu power
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ist mp3 player
on December 9, 2012
Posted by: thundergas
from macedon NY
Expertise:Beginner
This is the first mp3 player I've owned and I'm still getting used to it and it's capabilities. The only down side is that the battery seems to drain quickly and there could have been more documentation with the product to better understand its use.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, compact
Cons: needs better directions
I would recommend this to a friend!
