This is awesome for exercise. Good quality sound, very nice arm band, average headphones (but good for running. never get off of you). Nicer looking than in picture. Very firm form factor. Highly recommended

This was a Christmas gift that was an out of the box failure. I have spent 4 weeks and countless hours trying to get Samsung to stand by their product or as a last resort, their customer..I have appealed through their Voice of the Customer System the employees of which do not get back to you and refuse to provide a replacement. They never fullfilled their obligation to provide a working product for the $170.00 we ultimately paid.

Just recieved my player, and took it out for a run in the backcountry(don't forget to charge fully). The armband is great, I have big arms and it didn't pinch or slide off. The sound is great! SRS wow is a big improvement over normal stereo. It has a calorie counter and a Heart Rate Monitor, although I wouldn't use this product as your only means of tracking Heart Rate. I'm a big tech consumer and like to have products I can depend on, and I'm not 100% certain on it's durability, but the unit feels solid. Buttons are firm but you don't have to push too hard. The layout is very intuitive and takes very little time to learn. The screen is small, so anyone who needs glasses or contacts might have some issues reading, but for 20/20 it is very crisp and easy to read. The headphones become almost unnoticeable when running, very stayproof. They aren't the most comfortable when using for casual listening, but if your looking for an around the house player, this one might be too rugged. There are many settings I haven't messed with yet, and it appears there are many tweeks you can utilize for sound and user functioning, so I can only anticipate that the experience will be even better. This review isn't for durability or longevity, so read more reviews if you are concerned with that. All-In-All a very good product!

Bought this device some time ago and set it aside. Ran across it and decided to make use of it. It would not charge - or do anything. Great design and nice features are no match for either a lousy battery system or who knows what. In looking around the Web, found similar comments. Samsung helpful? You gotta be kidding. Sorry, unused or not, too old. So sorry. Too bad, because I've had better luck with other Samsung equipment. Next time, another brand.

This player cannot load music from a Mac. It also cannot load music from a Linux computer. This player also will not load music from outside of the US. Buy something else.

I purchased this item a few days ago . When I tried to get it work, it did not work at all. Not at all.

The player does not use common AA or AAA batteries, but instead has permanently-attached rechargeable battery. In my case, there was a problem with the battery inside (I called Samsung Customer Service and found this out after going through their instructions and such). The battery did not get charged at all, so it was completely unusable.

I hope Samsung gives more attention to product details for future products...

If you are looking for some other decent MP3 players, check out "Samsung YP-30S 64 MB Digital Audio Player and Voice Recorder." I used the model about three years ago, and it is very durable, resistant to scratches and shocks, as it is made of metal cover. Very high durability.

iRiver's iFP models are awesome as well, but it has somewhat less durability, as it is made of plastic. You can drop it multiple times and it will still be ok, however. Computer software-wise, iRiver is the best - it's got the easiest program to use.
