Summary: better interface than Ipod!
Comment: I had a 80GB Ipod and returned after a week. I had previously own a Sony and found it to have a friendlier interface so I returned the Ipod and purchased this 16GB Sony. It has a higher quality of sound. The battery life exceeds the Ipod. The earbuds are 10x better than the Ipod's. The Sony's disadvantages are the price per GB and the volume doesn't go nearly as loud as other players I've heard. In the end, I don't think I'll ever buy anything else but a Sony.

Summary: Wonderful Little Mp3
Comment: I was looking for a little mp3 player for an overseas trip; so long battery life, enough memory space to keep me entertained and nice video capability were what I was looking for.
This little guy had all that and more. It was in the running with Zune, iPod and the Walkman with an FM radio tuner. What sold me was battery life, screen size and that I never really listen to the radio. Since not many seem to have reviewed the video/picture viewer capabilities I will. The picture for video is gorgeous for such a small screen, colors pop and the extra .5 really is nice. Too, black levels look really good. It depends on where your video came from, but most uploaded from YouTube have pure black bars where needed. Viewing angle is a little narrow, but with such a small screen, and as I am not sharing...it's fine. Picture viewer is a nice feature that I didn't think I'd use, but is handy. As a photographer it is fun to have a "small" sample of work along. The colors/detail are really nice for so small a viewing screen. And I just have to convert to 320x240/jpeg in PhotoShop! Music sounds fantastic, as other reviews have said. And the ear buds are pretty nice.
Battery life has been good, but I have not yet tested the full life of music only v. video only.
Videos will need to be converted to play. I used ivcsoft found here: [...]
Video's need to be in "iPod/iPhone (320 x 240)(.mp4)" to play. But with this software it is very easy to convert, and then watch.
And 4GB is plenty of room for me; I have between 366-370 songs(this includes 2, 2.5 hour audio books.). With 70 videos(at about 9 minutes a piece) and about 70 images on this thing!
I would recommend this player.

Summary: Too Expensive for what you get !!
Comment: CONS-
1.....while plugged into computer and charging...it automatically starts deleting songs sometimes !!! Lost 300 songs this way ! Almost flushed it down the toilet that day!! Purchased sansa because of this!
2.....no radio
3.....unable to organize songs or delete them from player , must go onto windows media to delete (can be a pain).
4....no real off switch, turns on easily and runs down battery
5. belt clip sucks, falls off once in a while and I use it at gym...I hate arm bands while doing weights! duh!
Could have had a sansa for much less that had more options !
PRO-
good screen, easy access to specific songs, sounds good, scratching doesn't seem to be an issue, thin..but a bit long for the gym

Summary: Love the player, hate the uneven earbuds
Comment: My first review and I'll keep it short. It's an excellent mp3 player, photo viewer and video player. Great sound and battery life. My only complaint is the uneven cord length to the earbuds. Sony and Amazon don't show a photo of this part of the earbuds, so most people are unaware of this design feature. I'll have to go buy me a normal earbud to go with this player.

Summary: Great player!!
Comment: I previously owned a 4gb Sony player, but found I needed more space. I really liked the 4gb, and decided to go with the 16gb. What a great player!! The sound that comes out of this player is exceptional, the earbuds don't fall out, and you have a lot of choices in customizing your music. The battery life is good as well. If you want a player that is easy to use, has GREAT sound, and long battery life don't look any further. I don't do video, so I can't give any opinion in that area.
