Ultra 256MB 8-in-1 MP3 Player

Strengths: Good Player at a great price. Has nice features; FM video, voice recorder, ID3 display, LCD and EQ selections. Built in battery charger. SD memory expansion.

Weakness: So-so controls, and a battery life of only 3-4 hours. No random play. Nearly impossible to put the songs in the order you want. All mp3s must be completley disorganized and placed in the root. USB 1.1

The sound quality is much better than I expected. The included ear buds are acceptible. But not as good as they could be. Also, it would have been nice if the player was a little bit louder, and the headphone cord was a little bit longer. The bottom of the screen is devoted to animations of people dancing around. There is no way to turn this off, and it gets annoying quickly. They should have given the user the option to turn such a useless feature off, and save a few minutes of possible battery life.

Overall, a pretty good player at a good price. But could use some improvements.

Ultra 256MB 8-in-1 MP3 Player

Strengths: big storage with SD memory card up to about 150 songs. FM video, voice recorder, ID3 display, LCD, great price. and 5 EQ selection. battery charger function.

Weakness: hard to put the songs in the order u want. only can listen up to about 8 hrs. no bookmarks

GReat MP3 player all around. It cost me only $70
and it SD memory feature is good. It basically has
every a MP3 today has, exept its cheaper!!! The
sound quality is good with the EQ selection. It can
also act as a battery recharger. (no need to buy one.)

However, not everything is perfect. The weekness is
that its hard to put the song in the order to wants. and it doesnt have teh bookmarks function.

This is highly recommend if u want good price!!!

Ultra 256MB 8-in-1 MP3 Player

Strengths: Good player! Cheap price.

Weakness: Bulky in size. Not so convenient controls. ADD one more, BATTERY SUCKS!

Overall, I am satisfied with this MP3 player. It is way larger than I expected. It got almost everything. FM, voice recoder...

The sound quality is much better than I expected. I have read some the review put on other sites. Lots of people were complaining about the sound. I found mine OK.

The FM works fine with me also. I have no problem in reception.

The parts I am complaining are:
1. too big size.
2. can not random play.
3. stupid software, cannot remember last time it was played.
4. can not play in folder...

Still, for such price and expandable MP3 player (mine comes with a 256MB SD card for almost free), I would recommend anybody with limited budget go for it.

After another day with continuous playing, here is the annoying part, the battery dies within three or four hours... Dissapointing. Drop one star.
