To assess the SanDisk Sansa with more than 3 stars, I personally exaggerated. Among the positive features one quite easy navigation within the menus and compact shape. Looks really very elegant, although glossy (fingerprints unvermeintlich). With the blue illuminated on the front wheel can be smoothly scroll through the menus. Real full Goil, is fun. Is something else (do not own a iPod or similar, so for me that was something new). Even the Pimp of memory through a slot for SD cards has been well received. This allows the memory additionally upgrade. And an 8GB SD card costs really not the world. Software updates are also possible, so that, for example, incorrect folder structures can be solved etc. in future by downloading a new firmware. This works with the Sansa Firmware Updater without problems. The radio is also great success. Radio reception is best. But then: However, the maximum volume is too quiet for me. The health fanatics among you are now determined to cry, but I want to level a certain "sound" but then have to to hear all pitches reasonable and perhaps even "feel" the bass. I then test for the sake of my Ultimate Ears (in-ear) tried, with the same result. The supplied headphones are not at all that bad once you sit properly. That does not mean that the sound is bad. On the contrary, sound can fully convince the little one. The equalizer setting do the rest. Then I tried to convert converter via the Sansa Media Video files. I succeeded neither in Windows Seven even under Windows XP. The result lies not resolve even after about 50 tests and updating the Sansa firmware and a new converter version. GoogleT times for fun and you will see. I then tried on other converters (Badaboom; DVDFab; Format Factory) to come to a happy ending, unfortunately without success. My old MP3 player from Cowon plays but then in a different league. The included software is beyond doubt. Thus, converting any files works without problems. And to whom is the volume too little, the simple plays on it, the US firmware and can turn up the volume. Personally, I think the players have failed and have grabbed him after 2 days testing in the blister packaging and remainder returned. Since I am but then fell for so many 4-5 star reviews.
