4.0 out of 5 stars Great Product But Must Follow Instructions, June 6, 2011

I really love this TouchMP although I must say I didn't always feel this way. First of all let me say that the instruction manual is on the software and the quick start instructions seemed to cause more problems than good. I also believe that a lot of the reviews are from those like myself who just take for granted that we've had mp3 players before and we automatically know what to do with this right out the box. My first mistake was I didn't let it charge fully and was anxious and to load it without reading the instructions on the software. I successfully loaded music and the album art was there for a brief couple of minutes before disappearing. Anxiously again I loaded the audiobook after installing the audio software and after doing so it just went blank and I too assumed that it had crashed. I couldn't power it on or off and the navigation lights wouldn't go off and my computer wouldn't recognize it through the usb portal and stated "malfunction and no drivers detected", I was so stressed trying to get this thing going. After letting it sit out for about a day, I noticed the navigation blue lights had went out and although I was determined to send this what I had assumed defective product back, I gave it one more try. I plugged it in, pc recognized it and all my music was still there. After a full charge, I loaded about 15 albums and synced with no problem (and all album art was there). My audio book was even on there. I absolutely love this product, music is pristine clear , the radio is the same and the audiobook feature works great. Easy to navigate through and other than not being wifi accesible, it's the greatest value out there. I actually bought one for a friend also and she has no problems, she too thought hers had crashed but reset it and no problems. I do recommend this product, just read the instructions, let it fully charge initially and you should be fine.

I bought 2 of these mp3's one was damaged when I recieved it and and memorex still hasn't exchanged it for me. The other player was a gift this one is work great. The person I bought it for loves it. I bought this units from info-technology ,since they don;t have a return policy I'll never buy from this company again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding MP3!!!!!, December 21, 2010

This is an excellent choice for an Mp3/video player!! First, let me say that the review is written for the 4gb not the 8gb as shown. The seller didn't list it correctly!!

The sound quality is above average!! Warning I'm not an ear-bud person! I listen to my Mp3 player using a pair of Radioshack Pro 35A Headphones with titanium drivers!! The sound is perfect!!

Battery life is also perfect! With no problems at all! The one drawback for some will be that first charge is for 3 to 4 hours. After that first charge, charge times decreased to about 45min.

The expansion port for the micro sd card has some problems! Don't buy an 8gb micro sd card for this player. It will work for awhile then massive problems will happen including: Album art will suddenly and for no reason disapear! The player will become contaminated for no reason. And finally, music and or video's won't play!! After knowing this I bought an 4gb micro sd card and didn't have any problems!!

At this current time the player doesn't have any optional goodies!! There is no protective case!! No charger stand!! No sound port or docking station!!

The screen is nice and large!! The protective coating on it still doesn't have a scratch on it, even after shoving it into my pocket and carrying it around in there!!

The key lock slider works as it should with no problems!!

I have dropped this once on carpet with no apparent problems!! After the memory card problem!!

I'm enjoying this player!! Quick easy access to Windows media player!! Above average sound quality!! 1 current problem (don't use 8gb micro sd cards on this). However, 4gb cards are trouble free!! Scratch free screen without a protective case!! But no extra's or goodies!! No sound port or docking station!! No charger stand!! I know you will enjoy yours when you get it!!

I'm a working musician that loves music!!!
