Very nice touchscreen interface easy to use with a nice lock feature, that still lets you turn the volume up and down. No bloatware software to install, oh that's right, no software worked with Windows 7 right out of the box. Has played every file I have dragged on to it. And the flac format sounds incredible. I like everything about this mp3 player and this is about the eighth mp3 player I have owned. But the first one I have really liked!

This product has some fun features that are for those who like to play around with the mp3, such as Beat DJ or a gingerbread man that when tapped cracks. But, other than the fun little gimmics, there is a lot of problems to be aware of. The mp3 does not always support the video formats that are said to be supported. At multiple times it froze when changing the volume. And most recently after an upload onto the mp3, it froze at the start up screen and resetting the mp3 did not help. After searching about the issue online, I found other people who were experiencing the same problem. My last Samsung mp3 lasted 2 years, I was hoping this one would be similar, but it did not even last 6 Months. This product was a disappointment.

At first the battery was only 5 hours, after a few charges it was 10-15. I don't like how the scrolling for bands or songs is only horizontal. It was a $100 when I got it and it was worth it.

I bought this MP3 player specifically for a cross-country road trip. I was told by a Samsung rep that it gives 25 hours of audio listening. Mine got 6 at most. On two different occasions, after a full charge, it lost 10% of it's battery and it wasn't even turned on. I sent it back to Samsung and they refused to replace it. They claim that they played it "for several hours" and it was fine. Don't buy a Samsung product and expect them to stand behind it!!!
