I already got a 2gb sansa clip (sandisk's mp3 player), and i'm going to buy one of these fuzes, but still can't decide whether to buy a sansa fuze or a sansa fuze plus !! :S
I just bought a newer model of this (taller and thinner) after my simple 2 gb broke out of the blue. I wanted something that played movies, had a lot of music space and a good price and this is what I needed
Once I had to choose between this player and iRiver E50. I've chosen E50 and I'm also pleased whit it. It's a good player and battery life lasts ofr ages
i have a sansa e250 or whatever the hell it is, it looks like the first nano's . did not use it for like 3-5months, dropped it hard a lot of times and it still works. outlasted my zune and my ipod 30gb combined bought it though 2007 when they were still expensive (150usd) for the 4gb model
I happen to own an 8GB Sansa Fuze and to be honest IT SUCKS! I wanted one because it could do video, audio, and radio. What I didn't know is that you have to use the lousy piece of shit software that goes with the player to just put videos on it. First of all, I am on a limited account and every time I have to OPEN the program, it pops up with the Administrator permission thing, and when I finally get access to it, the software crashes. When it finally does work, it takes FOREVER to just
convert one simple video on it. Even if you convert the same video to the same format using the same parameters as the sample video, it doesn't take it. So that rules out video. The next problem is the radio. The reception overall is decent, but when you try to record off of it, the recordings constantly skip. I complained to SanDisk about it and they didn't do shit about it. So that rules out recording off of the radio. So the only thing that it's good for is mp3s.
That's what I did. It worked perfectly fine for music, but when I tried to put video on it, it would just display an error screen on the player saying that the file is not supported, even if you convert a video (in a program other than the SMC)to the same format and resolution as the sample video that came with it. So pretty much if I wanted to put videos on it I would have to use the crap Sansa software.
Pound for pound, one of the best PMPs in the market today. Love the SD Card slot which basically means you can add music as long as you have the cards and those don't even go for much. Hell, the player goes for around $60-$80.
Just make sure to try to get one of the V1 models so you can run Rockbox on it which basically turns it into an even more amazing player than it is already.
Let me say this again, the Fuze really is an amazing player and is the best kept secret in the industry.
it can hold up to literally as much as you want as long as you have the money for it. It has a mini sd slot capable of allowing more memory. Its the best MP3 I HAVE EVER! EVER! OWNED! I recommend it!
haha, the more mp3 players look like an iPod the more people like them...kinda strange but they did set the bar pretty high...i love sansa players and this one has a scroll wheel, i want one...
can you take pictures and video with this or does pictures and video mean u can download my sister already has an 8 gb ipod touch hooked to our computer and i was wondering if i hooked this up would it work? i need these questions answered cuz im asking for one for christmas i would really appreciate the answers, : )
better than a ipod , no hassle of syncing it to a computer and then being forced to only use That computer or risk it deleting all your songs like a ipod does. and it has a RADIO built in!
Lol nice dude, how much you got it for? for it me it was a total of 61 dollars just because i didnt want it to come after a week, so i choose the fast shipping.
Just got it bro. ITs awesome lol, i already got almost 900 songs and some pics and still 3G free. that's awesome. Plus my songs are long cause i like those reggaeton remixes stuff lmao.
that's the installation disc for Sansa Media Converter. you're probly gonna need it to put music videos on it, since it's so damn picky about what formats are ok....i think only MPEG-4 is.
Go to any reputible audiophile web site. Search for best sounding mp3 players, the sandisk fuze and the clip are in the top 3.
Sony walkman nz series usually comes out very high too.
The ipods never make the top ten, its because apple knows that what sells their device is the clever styling and their cultish commercials. They do not focus on the audio quality, because they do not have to, to sell their mp3 players.
Sandisk is the underdog and puts all their energy in to sound quality.
can you play full movies on the fuze im getting one for mi brother and i have a sansa view i love the view,but i want to know if you can put movies on the fuze?
where did you get it in black? i really like this, but it only comes in silver from what i've seen. silver isn't bad, but i would prefer some other color. thanks!
yah i know that, but my firmware for a 4gb has some sort of a new logo it has circle like the buffering circle on youtube it changes color from red yellow green and blue.
Very nice video. On my website you can have access for free to texting online. You can create a list of friends to send mulitple text messages in one click. Just go to my profile.
How Good do the videos look on the Fuze? Are they choppy or anything and does the video and voices sync together so there mouths don't move before you hear the words?
i would so recommend this to anybody even tho i dont have it becuase of the price. U can get this at costco for 60 bucks 8gb but u need the coupun and i got it today so get ur from costco!!!
I used the software that comes with it , rhapsody , sansa media converter , windows media player 10 , i-tunes , installed quicktime and direct-x and still no success.
you should get the iPod touch the touch screen is cool and its larger then the view 3.5 diagonal and you can go on the internet and buy songs on the go over wifi and have a separate app for youtube and play games using the accelerometer which is really fun. you can add apps too.
zunes suck 1 the radio is pointless half the songs u hear on a normal radio are stupid and cheesy. 2 so what if you can send songs you can only hear the song twice if you got music sent to you. and the zune is from microsoft so it sucks even more
Also, "EndingNiggazCareer1," nobody cares that you have the 2gb. Stop posting it on every Fuze video. It'd be easier to forgive you if you didn't have such a stupid 7th-grader-esque name.

islamrapesthemind 2 years ago
the radio was a good thing to add, but the camera was not a good idea. And they placed it bad.
The thing about the Sansa Fuze is that it supports open format codecs, like FLAC and OGG, which is a lot better than mp3 and aac.
And you don't have to use itunes for putting your music on your player.
And it's cheaper to, have better sound and more power for bigger headphones.
