SanDisk Sansa Fuze 2 GB Video MP3 Player (Black)

I have had my fuze for about 2 weeks. I bought it with the 8gb Kensington micro sd card for $19.99. The total was $64.95 for a 10gb total fuze, which is about $20 less than what the 8gb fuze is going for.Build Quality - So far I have found the build of the fuze to be very solid. I love the rubbery back cover. I don't think that it helps it not slide around, but it does keep it from getting scratched up.Ease of Use - I have found the fuze to be pretty intuitive with its user interface. The only issues I have had is trying to up load any videos or pictures. From what I understand you have to change the format for the fuze to recognize them. I have an Ipod also and love the ease of adding music to the fuze with media player compared to Itunes. As long as you have your sync cord you can add music from any computer with media player. One slight draw back is the length of time it takes for the fuze to refresh each time it is synced. I have the 8gb card a little over half full and it takes a good 2 minutes to refresh. I assume this will continue to increase with more music being added or if I eventually move to a 16gb card.Sound/Video quality - I have found the sound quality to be very good. I am no audiophile, but I think it sounds as good as my Ipod.I do find that I need to really turn up the volume when playing through my car stereo (I use a tape adapter) or running it through the computer speakers. The only video I have watched on it was the one that came loaded. I would say the video is adequate for what it is. I really don't plan to use this for video playback though.Battery Life - The battery life seems to be getting better. I don't know if it needs burned in a little, but I can get somewhere around 18-20 hours of use before it would need to be recharged. It also recharges rather quickly.Overall - I really love this little thing. I love the FM radio feature, which I have found to work rather well in my area. I think the 2gb unit with the 8gb micro sd card is an awesome value at around $65. Buy it without hesitation!

It is really nice having your music on the go.This piece of hardware has a lot to offer but at the same time it lacks in little things, let me tell you that the only things this would need would be a camera and a wake up alarm and would be perfect. Then again there are little things that I dislike about it. I haven't found a way to play my songs the way I want them, meaning that if you have albums in your memory card as "album 1, album 2, album B" it wont play but by artist, bands, genres. It means that if you have 3 albums that share the same song, you will have to go for "album 1" to play that song only and then "album B" to play another. I have like 700+ songs, I have to play one by one and when I am really lucky, I can play 3 or 4 songs. Otherwise, I have to be picking out the mp3 out of my pocket to click and go for the next song over and over again or do the easier part to play all songs, but that means if you want to listen to certain artist due to a specific mood, it'll be a disappointment.I am not sure if adding songs to a play list will resolve the issue, but to do this in different mp3 would be a waste of time, I rarely use it anymore, I prefer to play them on my phone or listen to the radio (no good).When you see what this piece is made of and how cool features it gives you, you fall in love. The option of giving memory expansion, gives lots of hopes but its poor ability to pleased users, makes the hardware a bit less enjoyable.Don't get me wrong, this thing could be a good competition to other any ipod. I can have photos, videos, radio as well, and not only comes with memory included but you can always expand for more, do this things are really good. Sansa would be really good if they could resolve this in future updates.

First, i wanna say thanks to amazon for sending the package so early.Overall:overall this mp3 is very good value. It has a lot of features like voice recording, equalizer(normal, rock, pop, jazz, classical, funk, hip hop, dance, full bass, full treble and custom),video, photo, fm radio, settings and music. This mp3 player is sturdy. Don't be fooled by the price, its a good buy and its worth it. Out of all the mp3 players I've had, this is the best because its cheap, its loud, its sturdy and its a high quality product. Hands down this is BETTER than ipod it has more features like a custom equalizer and voice recording and you can change the color of the wallpaper. BETTER yet its half the price or even less.Sound Quality:The sound quality is increadable. I had tracks in this mp3 player, that sound really good, on other mp3 players it sounded a little raspy and muffled but on this player its clear. This mp3 player comes with an equalizer(normal, rock, pop, jazz, classical, funk, hip hop, dance, full bass, full treble and custom). I mostly prefer custom.Video:I have downloaded 4 videos and they look pretty good to me. On the menu you can make the video brighter or darker, which is very good. To download videos to the sansa fuze you have to download the sansa media converter. The sansa media converter also converts photos to the mp3 player as well. Google: sansa media converter, and you should find it. I don't think anyone could be able to put videos on a sansa fuze if you never used the sansa media converter. I tried to download videos on my own but no avail. So if you want videos on your sansa fuze you have to download the sansa media converter. Before i send a video to the sansa media converter i convert the video to mpeg4 15 fps using free youtube downloader (you can download this at cnet downloads.com <-- just google this)Photos:I haven't downloaded my own photos yet, but if you want no issues with downloading photos you should download the sansa media converter.Voice recording:the voice recording is pretty easy to use.Headphones:This mp3 player came with a pair of good headphones. These headphones are good but i usually change my headphones with the in-ear types. I like silicone headphones because they seal the ear canal, but these headphones are durable and pretty good if you don't mind their shape and if they fit you well.
