Sandisk Clip MP3 Player 2GB Review

What does this inexpensive digital audio player offer?
SANDISK CLIP 2GB MP3 PLAYER
Sandisk, known for making quality MP3 players at a low price, has made what is possibly “the best low-price player.” And this would be the Sandisk Sansa Clip. The iPod Shuffle starts around $50 for 1 GB, with their 2 GB player at around $70. The audio quality, even with the stock headphones, beats a lot of other MP3 players. The Sansa Clip looks good, too, and it’s easy to carry around thanks to the built-in clip.
The Sandisk Clip 2GB MP3 Player is a small, clip on style, digital audio player that plays MP3, WMA and secure WMA music files. The Clip is small, about the size of a car key remote fob. One thing that I kind of waver on with small players like the Sansa Sandisk Clip 2GB MP3 is therechargeable battery. The user interface of the Sandisk Clip 2GB MP3 Player is quite simple and easy to use. Sound-wise, the Sansa Sandisk Clip 2GB MP3 Player is good, especially for the price range
weight and size
It is a tiny bit bigger than the iPod Shuffle, but it’s still small.
memory capacity and format
The Sansa has 2 GB internal flash memory.
battery type and life
Operates on an internal rechargeable battery which has a claimed life of 15 hours. I was getting about 15 hours in my tests. While the battery life was good, I was disappointed in the standby battery life, though.
displays and appearance
The display is small but easy to read. The menu works well.
interfaces and transfer
Just a USB cable, and it works great. The Sansa will sync to Windows Media Player if you want, but I’m happy to just drag and drop albums, pretending the device is just another folder on my hard drive.
extras
The USB cable is fine.
