Love it!,By seabiskit

I love this little gadget. Creating playlists was a breeze coz I already have my music folders on the PC and just dragged & dropped them on the P3, and I saved myself anxiety by reading the blogs about not using the Emodio software. Used iWisoft video converter for videos (freeware), saved documents to .txt so I can read them on the P3. I love that I can customize the features too.

Why can’t I give it a 10…,By Raini Hernandez

This product is amazing. I have had a iPod, Phillips and a Sansa Fuze and this is by far the best in not just sound but as a all around product. I use it not just to play my music but to watch my tv shows and movies. The cell phone link feature is great, when you blasting you tunes and a call comes in you can answer it from the P3. I also ordered the Samsung Bluetooth headphone and they are a great addition to this unit. Sound is superb and the distance you can travel from the P3 is pretty far. My son has a Birthday coming up and this is what he is asking for. Only mistake I made was just getting the 8MB model, I would suggest at least 16 if not 32 as 1,300 songs, 200 pics and a few tv shows can fill it up…lol…

Exceeds expectations,By J. Marra

I bought this to replace my very old (but still working!) Samsung YP-Z5 and I’m very glad I decided to stick to Samsung. I did a lot of research before I made this purchase, and I think I got an incredible deal ($99) considering that these samsung players are amazing and pretty much last forever.

Some things that have surprised me:
-The FM Radio works much better than I expected (very clear signal, very user-friendly)
-The bluetooth is not useful for me since it eats away the battery life
-Watching videos on this player really is fun
-The emodio website really does not work for me, but I am crediting it with helping me to get some of my album art that wasn’t syncing otherwise

Awesome Player,By Joe

I have no doubt that this is the best player out there in this price range. Definitely recommended.
Hassle free usability for a touchscreen player. I bought a 8GB. You may want to consider atleast the 16GB.

Great MP3,By L. Dugas “Mom to boys”

My son did his homework when he chose this MP3. It sounds great. He loves it. I like it much better than my other son’s iPod.

Great player,By Angrypencils

The P3 is really a great player. For some reason, many people compare it to the iPod Touch, but that doesn’t make much sense, considering it’s priced to compete better with the iPod NANO.

The P3′s screen is made of glass… this means, it is really hard to scratch it, unlike that odd plastic material used in most touchscreen players. The touchscreen itself will seem a bit sticky at first, but after a week or so of having it, you will barely notice this at all. The touchscreen is in most cases very responsive, though the player’s UI is notorious for lagging at times. This, though, is something you can easily get used to. There are some silly little widgets, some are handy such as a clock and a calendar, but most seem to be designed for a young child. The background is customizable with images 272×480 pixels for a perfect fit. Also, when you first begin using it, you may notice the battery draining quickly, as the first of three bars will disappear quickly. The meter only stays at full when the battery is very full, i can use this for about 4 days, listening about 2-3 hours a day before i need to charge it.
The screen has some sort of special detection for touch, i believe it’s called capacitive sensing, which only responds if it detects a conductor, in other words, the human body. I’m sure it also works with some random special material as well, but for the purposes of the average person, this will only respond to a human body, so you don’t have to worry about anything else activating the touchscreen. You may still want to use the Hold button though, as there are volume and a power button on the top of the player.
The screen on this player can play videos at up to 800×600 pixels, which is pretty good for a player of this price. It’s no Zune HD, but it sure does look good on the 3 inch screen.
The player body is made of some plastic, but mostly metal. I have heard of these things surviving all kinds of punishment, even have 45 pound weights dropped on them in the gym. The touchscreen and everything still worked in that case, the only problem were cracks and the player being slightly bent of course.
The P3 has all the typical features of a Samsung player, the DSNe, bluetooth, etc. etc. What is really surprising is its support for .flv files, and a flash player for .swf files. Yes, this means you can play flash games and watch flash movies on your P3. It can also be used to pair with a phone as a hands free device via bluetooth.
The only thing i would ever really worry about would be the fact that you can see directly inside of the player, as in you can see all the microchips and whatnot inside of it through the headphone jack. This could lead to dust getting in there, but this is easily solved by either just blowing it or or just leaving headphones in all the time.
In short, this player is really fantastic for 150$, which, again, is the same price as an Nano. You get so much more for almost the same price, it makes me wonder why anyone would ever buy a Nano.
