Thanks so much for everyone's help.

The quality was a lot better than I expected. I watched the demo video but I still can't put drama series on it. 4GB is good since I am on a budget but it would be better if there was more space. Am I doing something wrong thats why I can't put videos on it?

So far I'm liking this mp3.

EDIT//
I know this question should be posted in troubleshooting but I wanted to see if any here could answer. Does anyone know how to upload videos to the Sony NWZ A816? It doesn't work. I tried to convert drama onto it but it still didn't work. Help please!!!

when I buy stuff for myself i just think "I'm going to buy it because gosh darnit I work, I pay my bills, I am a responsible adult and if I want it, I will have it because I deserve it".

I am a responsible adult

I wish i could say that about myself

I wish i could say that about myself

haha


just get it. its pretty good.


i got the ipod touch, and i think i regret getting it haha. I wanted something with a better sound quality.

[Goombi]

I'd get it as well. I got a black 8GB just when it came out for 280 and I haven't regretted my decision yet. The bluewave is keeping the mp3 player fresh, the touchscreen response is getting a lot better, and besides, the sound quality is impeccable.. even with the stock earbuds which aren't that bad by the way

finally bit the bullet
got the 4gb P2 for $142 shipped through buy.com and 5% discount
5% off
if anyones interested!

[Jaeho]

^ Great deal. :]

And yeah, the P2 earphones are actually really nice. I think they're better than a lot of non-stock earphones... Too bad mine broke. :x

[STEPHOO--]

i'm getting the ipod touch next week, but i'm scared that once I get it, something new will come out.
have there been any updates to the ipod touch (that i don't know about ) ? Like will they be releasing something new anytime soon? O_O

should I just wait? .. or get something else? My second choice would be the samsung p2.

for those who are asking about the zen 4gb, This one
here's my review/advice:

minimal package: this thing doesn't come with a lot. just expect the player, and nothing more. the USB cable's like 4" long , doesn't come with a charger, and there's not really a user manual, only a quick user guide.

charging: either through USB cable or USB charger. they say 4 hours to fully charge it, but it takes like a couple of hours for me.

converting: easy conversion. never mind what i said. it can convert without the player being plugged in. do install the CCC codecs pack.

size: credit-card size with 2.5" screen. me like.

picture quality: images look awesome... even my mom was like... "ooohh" lolz and converted vids are vibrant as well. my MVs and perfs and crap are all so crisp. i thought that turning from avi to wmv9 would mess with the quality, but it was great.

subtitle: if it's the size of regular soft-subs in srt files, you'll be able to read it. and the creative converter encodes subtitle to your files if there's a softsub file for it!

sound quality: honestly when i use my UE 3's, the sound level i turn to is 2, and when i use my ipod buds, the sound level i turn to is ~7, and the thing goes up to like 30 , so it's loud enough no matter what buds you use. their conversion software also didn't mess with sound quality, so no fear.

multi-usage: you can listen to music while viewing pics, but you can't listen to the radio while viewing pics. what's up w/ that?

voice-recording: it's so clear! and my voice sounds true to what i think i sound like. you know how when you get recorded, and you're like, who the hell was that? well i actually sound like myself with this thing. love it.

battery-life: not as long as they advertise. but it's not bad.

SD-card: dunno, but according to ppl, not worth it to try. apparently it's not integrated enough.

organization: it organizes vids and pics according to how you stored your files in your comp. if the files came from a folder labeled "Music Vid" it'll be the same in your player. but it organizes mp3s according to the album title in your file's properties. and you can't move your things around. either organize your comp files to begin with, or you have to drag the files to the specific folder within your player when you transfer it.

freezing problem: if it freezes, hit the back/menu button, then hit the play/pause button and it'll resume. i found this out because my hand accidentally brushed across the buttons and voila it played, and i was like, "oh, hello there changmin!"

memory size: a WMV9 MV is about 15-20mb, and 320kbs MP3 is about 10mb ... quick math -- so 200 MVs or 400 mp3s.

durability: will be back with a story when it dies (i bought this with the intention of replacing it after 1 year, hoping it will last that long, so yeah, know what you're getting into).

I just lost my YP-T9 today..I'm so sad, it was a good mp3 D:

I'm not sure if this belongs in this thread. But I have a question about the Samsung K5.......What are its price ranges if I were to have it purchased in Hong Kong. And I am also looking at it the Samsung K3...
I'm just looking for a sleek sexy design, good sound quality, easy to use menu/track search in an mp3..I like having the video feature but I don't really use it..So would paying the extra money for the K5 as opposed to the k3 be 'worth it' in my case?
Thank you

[soominie]

Here I go, posting this picture again. XD
It's the newest version, an iPod Classic
I'd say it's pretty good, except for the fact that it STILL hasn't been hacked (people don't know how to change the font, background, etc yet)
and it doesn't have a limit to the amount of words in each note, meaning I can't read any fanfics on my iPod!! GRR
That's the biggest disappointment I have in my iPod.. >:(

And.. I'd say everything else is good. If only I can download games for free.. I'd love to play Tetris hahaha

Wow, that's such a nice looking skin, where did you get that ?

[Indogurl05]

Sony NWZ-S616F




Size: 4GB
Price: A$ 193
Battery Life: 33H (but to me it can last 3 days - 5 days..)
Connectivity: USB and it directly in sync with WMP
Media Compatibility: MP3, WMA, mp4, m4a, 3gp, wav, m4v, mpeg-4, jpg
Software: Windows Media Player
Included in the package: Headphones, USB Cable, Attachment to hold the player, CD ROM (Mp3 Conversion Tool, WMP 11, Operation Guide), the manual Quick Start Guide

I like the design and the great thing is that you don't need to resize it like Ipod, just drag the music you want into the WMP 11 or copy and paste to the folder. its not too small or not big at all.. it comes in various color.. sounds nice.. video clarity great.. the album cover will be in the screen when the music is playing..

negative... when you want to have a different song or change the song the playlist will start as 1 again.. if you understand what i mean..

[ehh_you]

I think I'm going to get a new mp3 player soon. I am deciding between the ipod nano (8gb) or the zune (8gb). can someone help me out? Which one is better according to

battery life
screen
sound quality
price
size
overall appearance
software
navigation
weight

and anything else you can think of.
thanks in advance.

Cowon D2 DAB

battery life - 52 hours
screen - 2.5" touchscreen
sound quality - should be the best right now at the market (reviewed by some german sites. didn't read any english sites yet)
price should be - 180$, dunno the price of the DAB yet
size - 78mm x 55.4mm x 16.6mm
overall appearance -
software - a software is optional
navigation - via touchscreen or stick
weight - 91g (nano is 50g)

I personally can't decide if I get a Ipod Touch or the Cowon D2. Ipod Touch has wifi, but Cowon is overall better.

There are a 4gb for 180dollars and a 8gb for 220 dollars. But you can upgrade with a 8gb sd-card at anytime.

^The question is, how much do you NEED to be able to go online and browse the web?
And how often can you connect to wireless (WiFi) points?
