Incomplete review September 4, 2010 M. Arntzen (California) I have only had this for a few hours, but I believe I can make helpful comments.
First, I did not buy it from Amazon. I trust Amazon, especially with books, but I often find electronics cheaper elsewhere. Since this is Amazon I won't name where I got it ($20 on sale in a store).
First, the sound quality is good. It's better than my 1gb iPod Nano, second generation, in that respect. The headphones that come with it are adequate.
Second, it's easy to install media. First, you'll need to install the software that comes on it, there are no CDs; all you need to do is plug it in with the USB connector that comes with it. Then let the software scan your computer for media, or add specific files and drives. You can then sync the files to your player. All of the files that show up for Itunes does show up for the Coby software. It's not necessarily fast in adding it completely but you can add things simultaneously in each content area; they are separated in the categories, but you can view them other ways as well.
Third, the radio can be slow or choppy, but it will work. If you hit the middle button twice, you can switch it from Manual mode to your presets. It's easy to switch between modes and add to your presets. The presets will jump in the order that you made them, not according to frequency on the scale.
Fourth, the video is, obviously, small but I like it. I don't plan to watch movies on it, just shorter content such as news podcasts. The software will convert the video file from the kind it is in. Watch out, the file converted might end up bigger what the software shows.
Fifth, if you pause the player, or go to another feature and it auto pauses, you can hit Now Playing when back in the area and resume playing whatever you were listening to or watching.
Sixth, the photos are small, and you should really only use it as a place to back them up, if that.
Seventh, I have not tried the text mode, so I cannot comment on that now.
Eight, it charges with the usb, and mine came fully charged out of the box.
Lastly, it has no clip. So if you're running or working out with it, you'll need to have it in your pocket or get an accessory that is compatible.
Overall, if it doesn't get buggy or freeze, it's worth the money. Even if it only lasts a year (dividing the $22 I paid, that's tax added, by 365, would mean I paid 6 cents a day for its use), that'd be worth the price paid.
Extra:
If you have something that lasts over an hour (I specifically have a NPR All Concerts Considered podcast playing that is that long), for the showing time played and time left featured, you cannot tell your exact time. This is because it shows minutes and seconds but not hours, 59:59, instead of 1:00:00, would be what gets seen. But there is a bar and you can see where you are at in relation to the beginning and end.
You can listen to specific artists or albums, but it's not necessarily intuitive. The first track for A Love Supreme, by John Coltrane, is fourth in the list, and it goes backwards. But, again, it's cheap and worth the price.
Notes for potential buyers August 29, 2010 Reviewer 102 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This review is meant to be helpful for potential buyers. I aimed to get an MP3 player that would play mp3s and audio books, while I was traveling; I was not making an investment in buying a showy new mobile device. The product first arrived on time. The packaging was great. Tightly sealed and protected. Most importantly the product did what I wanted it to do. The sound quality was decent. I didn't have much of a problem uploading audio tracks onto the device, but then again that might vary depending on one's familiarity with technology. It's fairly easy, taking about 4 steps. Any concerns about not getting what one pays for: this would have to include the radio function. It didn't work very well in doors for me. It's antenna must not be that big. For me that's fine since I don't plan on using it much. I think that the functionality and price match the product. I do not feel as though I was gipped in any way when making this purchase.
Nothing spectacular August 28, 2010 Mind over Matter (In the Mind) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Though the style is sleek, its nice and compact and the sound quality is good, you cannot make lists to categorize music. I even emailed their customer service @ CobyUSA, in case it was possible and I just couldn't figure it out and CobyUSA's customer service said that this unit does not support play list. I also don't know how one can appreciate pictures in a screen so small--the pictures are like thumbnails. At best, its a place to store pictures, not view them. I guess I got spoiled with the Creative Zen Vision W 30 GB Widescreen Multimedia Player (Black), nothing else I've had has compared.
Great MP3 Player!!! August 25, 2010 Deanna Lynn Kane (BELLEROSE, NEW YORK USA) I was definitely not up with the times. I finally decided to get an MP3 player. I honestly knew nothing about them. I didn't want to spend a lot of money and make a mistake so I chose this one. For $30, if it didn't work well, it wouldn't be too much of a big deal. To tell you the truth I didn't really have much faith in this player's quality, because it wasn't an expensive brand or an Apple Ipod. I really wasn't expecting much.
When it arrived I have to admit I was excited to get started. I had loads of songs I wanted to hear that I didn't have on cd. I felt like a kid in a candy store. At first, I found a site I could buy MP3's from and tried to get my songs on the device. Since this was my first time uploading songs on an MP3 player I didn't know what I was doing and had lots of trouble. The directions it came with were not very helpful to me because of my ignorance with technological things. Finally after fiddling around for over an hour I finally figured it out. I bet a lot of you are thinking I am a real dummy, lol!
All I can say is I am thrilled!! This little piece of machinery is amazing to say the least. Once you get the knack, it is so easy to download your songs and add them to the playlist. When I saw how easy it was to upload songs from my computer to the device, I felt stupid for not figuring out how to do it sooner.
I bought a mini stereo cable and connected it to the headphone jack and the other end to my stereo's audio jack and I was pleasantly surprised at how loud and clear it sounds with my stereo system. The earbuds it comes with are a little uncomfortable and hurt my ears, so I am using my Sony Walkman's head phones and it is much more comfortable. My husband and 9 year old daughter liked this device so much, they want their own too. I will buy two more and highly recommend this item. It is well made and looks expensive too.
Thank you Coby for making a high quality, great sounding, good looking device for such a low price.
Not bad..could be better August 24, 2010 Kevin L. Pool For the price it works and sounds fine. My only objection is the way it adds and deletes mp3s.
