Samsung YP-T6X

The Samsung YP-T6X is much better than the Iriver portable mp3 player that I had.

I find using this as a flash memory device is as important as using it as an mp3 player. I would recommend only buying mp3 players that one can use as a flash drive. Why would anyone want to have to install or use specific software to load songs or remove songs from the player. When the device works like a flash drive all the standard file manager programs in windows, and Linux work with the device.

Features I want that I am having trouble finding are:

Double A battery based player. Longer play time is useful and valuable.

Splash proof player - I don't want to worry about a little rain or a splash of water killing my device.

Bought the Samsung YP-T6X mp3player a few months ago and I am still pleased with it. The encoding is good for my LP collect, but the sound can be poor (has this hiss on it) - but it can be cleaned up on my laptop (using Audio Cleaner). The best feature is the ease of which you can transfer music files (drag and drop) from your computer into it. The only gripe I have with it is the battery life is shorter than what was advertised (normally last around 8 - 10 hours)but that is just a simple case of replacing the battery. I would recommend this Mp3 player to anyone who wants something reliable, looks good and can be bought for under £90.00.
