5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice mp3 player!, October 12, 2007

By	Eric - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Nextar MA566-1P - Digital player / radio - flash 1 GB - WMA, MP3 - pink

Allright, the number one thing this mp3 player has is sound quality. It's equalizer settings are phenominal, expecially the rock setting... I have used several mp3 players in the past and this is the only one that has had sound quality up to my expectations.

The radio is excellent, it captures all the stations that are in range and plays them with amazing clarity, it's much better than the one in my car lol... I love it's looks and light weight. The cap comes off to reviel a usb connector, so you don't need to carry around a cable to plug it into a computer like most mp3 players. Voice recording quality is very high compared to most mp3 players. The battery life is extremely high, just one triple A lasts me a month. It comes with a free AAA battery.

Things I don't like:
1. Equalizer is hard to get to from radio mode.
2. Headphones must be replaced, they have extremely poor sound quality.
(Koss headphones have the best quality and I reccomend them highly)
3. Menu button is enter and the skip buttons are up and down, instead of the intuitive play button and volume buttons.
4. Equalizer is not custom, this is something that has not really hit the mp3 player market much yet, so I would not worry about it. Unless you have the cash for the scandisk sansa.

These are all very minor complaints, if I could make the choice again, I would still pick this mp3 player.

5.0 out of 5 stars Washed with the dirty laundry..., December 21, 2008

By	Geek! (Bemidji, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nextar MA566-1P - Digital player / radio - flash 1 GB - WMA, MP3 - pink

My daughter bought this MP3 player a while ago. It has worked well, she is very happy with it.

Several weeks ago I was taking wet clothes out of the washing machine and found her MP3 player in with the wet clothes. I did not enjoy telling my daughter that her MP3 player was probably toast. We let it dry for a few days and changed the battery and it still worked perfectly!

We are very happy with it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great MP3 & radio, May 6, 2009

This little MP3 has good playback and is fairly easy to use. Have had problems with loading music only because my computer would not connect to it. You don't have to use itunes =-- you can load any music you already have stored or on CD and the RADIO picks up great I use it to listen to ballgames being broadcast.
