 jj.'s recommendation | |
very slim, Small and light,
Quick downloads from pc to player via usb cable (approx 10 sec per track),
Built in microphone,
Can be used for storing data (like a zipdisk).
Cannot re-arrange tracks on player,
Battery length approx 10 hours.
Been using the Zillion 64MB Multi Codec portable MP3 player for about 2 weeks and am completely satisfied with it. Easy to use, small and light (40g) fits in your shirt pocket. Although the player did freeze once while selecting a track and had to take out one of the batteries and re-insert it again. Apart from that it's worked fine. In the manual it mentions a program called audio convertor which enables you to convert music from one format to another, but you have to download this from the web (7.15mb) and is shareware (i.e you pay for it after 14 days)
The headphones that come with the player are of a good quality, and the the sound quality is clear. The highest volume level is loud but nowhere as loud as a conventional walkman (cannot compare with other mp3 players as i have not heard them). The sliding buttons on the player for bass/treble, shuffle, and 'hold' feel a bit cheap.
Would like to mention that the software for transferring tracks to the player does not suffer from the copyright thing that plagues sony mp3 players.
You can also store data files, pictures, etc like a zip disk. The built in microphone lets you use it as a personal recorder, but the playback quality has a very 'metallic' sound to it.
The player lets you delete tracks but neither the player or software lets you re-arrange the track list.
Overall i'm very satified with it and recommend it to others.
