I use to have 2 sansas one was 2gb and it looked like that(but this one sucked so bad I dont recoomened it) and a 4gb which looked like a square and it was great I had over 3 years. Recently my ipod touch 4g got jacked so im looking into sansas again and might buy this thanks for the review
Do i really need to Buy a Separate device for Playing Mp3s ??? Most of The Smartphones have 3.5mm Jack and Nice Music apps with Lots of Expandable Memory ? What are the Pros of a Separate MP3 Player Like this ?????
this sucks. i bought it last year and accidentally left it in my car glove compartment for a couple hours... when i got it out the little wheel had melted and gotten stuck to the interface. this is cheaply made. later i bought a sony walkman mp3 and left that in the car for a whole summer day!!! and i still have it today. duribility of all sanzas suck
Not good. I don't understand when people say it has good sound quality. Just got mine today.and I was very disappointed. Even with better earbuds, still sounds distorted. I've had a Sandisk mp3 player before and it sounded so good that I gave this a try. No wonder it keeps going down in price.
I'm getting this 16gb view in a few days, do you know if it supports the sansa 16gb memory cards? because in the vid you said up to 12gb. Doubt there will be any compatibility issues but i'll probs report back when I get it.
I have an old Sansa 2gb, not sure what model but I loved it, it never had any problems except it did become slow to load after using it for a good few months. Getting the 16gb view purely for the space and because I trust Sansa to be a good product
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sansa sucks! I had 1,00 songs and while i was listening to my songs they all of a sudden deleted themselves. I qwnt to check if my videos didn't get deleted and I found out that everything was deleted. Sansa Sucks!!!! Im switching to ipod now
meh had my sansa for three years, only messed up on me once, reformateted and its been fine since. with sansa the main reason new models have problems is software, but once they patch it and you update its usually fine.
Dude I was looking on best buy and other big stores, they sell the Fuze 4gb for around $100. Amazon has it for $57 and you just gotta buy the cords, which total are $4.50. Nearly a $20 saving on amazon, too bad I don't have a credit/debit card :/
Since my Archos 605 crapped out on me (second time), I'm thinking of getting a 32GB model of this and a 16GB microSD card. The only thing I'm fretting about is no OGG Vorbis or FLAC support. Frankly, MP3 and WAV don't cut it for me.
i went to go buy one yestegrday but it was out of stock. i guess people really like them. i think im going back to see if the restocked i REALLY want one!
i bought one today. I kant wait to get it. its kool. Its cheap for 16gb. I wonder if it is good. I had a e250 b4 but it krapped out on me. As you can see i like mortal Kombat so much it has affected my spelling
wow same exact story i got mine on ebay but before you download music to it you'r gonna want to download the media converter from the sansa website because if you don't your view will freeze on you alot
yeah i know but i bought a 16g so i downloaded so many songs it is a very good devise i say better than ipod i love it just when i download videos to it it seems to be a little stall
Okay i am dying to know what the hell the extras are for the view, i've heard that you can play games on it, and it has bluetooth. Can some plzzzzzzzz tell me!!!!!!!!!!
at 4:22 I used to have the the sansa on the right and it use to freeze on me all the time, until it finally broke. I hope the newest sansa has no internal long term difficiencies
I just forgot to ask if this is charged only with the pc or i can charge it at the socket(i don't know if it is called a socket i mean the thing at the wall)
Thank you for answering too. It is bad that it can't be charged by normal at the socket. I knew about adapters but i just don't trust them that much. Anyway except that it seems a very good mp3 player so i will probably buy one. I hope the screen protective is hard enough (like this glass-like plastic that mobile phones have) because the last mp3 i bought had a very thin protective that you could touch the LCD without pressing that much. Now you can touch touch it as much as you want it's broken
Hi, can someone tell me if it needs a program to transfer songs to it or i just can open it like a flash usb device and drag and drop mp3's into it? Please anwser if you know. Thank you.
Thank you very much for answering. I really can't stand an mp3 player that needs a special program for transfering songs.I just like to copy and paste.
That same thought popped into my head when I saw the set up on how the music play progress bar is placed, and where the album art it. SANSA/SANDISK is amazing. :)
if you love lots of music and don't want to pay a lot of money on music or a player, you want the sansa with rhapsody. rhapsody kicks the crap out of itunes so......
i have the 8 gig version and it dies every freakin 4 hours of play time and the songs sometimes get wiped out onto the computer and i have to sync them back again. but i think its a good mp3, only because ive only had 2 of them lol
the battery display seems to be giving false readings on mine. Charged it Completely up, it showed full green, but when I unplugged it it read 75 percent.
omfg so fucking awesome Im Getting that in 8 days!! im so exicted. i have the little sansa and im looking forward to get the mother load! lol. if you know what i mean
it depends..... the sansa view is mainly designed for videos and has more gb size options than the fuze. the fuze is a great designed mp3 that is used for every day music, photos, and videos, now I got a question for you......which would u choose the fuze or the sony walkman s610 ?
You won't regret it. It's a great player. I myself bought it when it first came out and haven't regretted a single minute of it. If the it seems too pricy you can go with the new Fuze which is basically the Ipod nano of the sansa world.
cool i might get one of these. im thinking about this 16gig or the 30 gig zen. i would get this in a 32 gig but its like friggin $350. this is definately smaller and im sure lighter than the zen. looks alot more user friendly. which do u think i should get?
