Sansa Clip 2GB

24 09 2008

I’ve owned this for about a month now.  I’ve had a 80GB Zune for 7 or 8 months, I purchased the Zune because of its display and I didn’t want an iPod (though all my music is purchased on iTunes).

I wanted a flash-based device that was cheap that I could use in the gym.  I searched around, saw what was available and I chose the Sansa Clip for a couple of reasons.  It’s TINY! It has a Radio and it’s relatively inexpensive.

So I got it…I really can’t believe how TINY this thing is.  Seriously, it’s little!  For it’s intended purpose, the sound quality is good, volume is capable of blasting (if you like that sort of thing).  I don’t know if it my particular house, but the radio reception leaves a little something to be desired, but what do you want from a very little mp3 player?

Here is what I like about this little thing the most.  I washed it!  I completely forgot about in my pants pocket (yes it is that small) and washed it and dried it…and it still works!  This is not to say that you would have the same success, but I was so happy to find that it does in fact work.

Another thing I like..plug it in, it’s found and loads up wonderfully in Windows Media Player. Simple, drag-and-drop of the tracks, click ’sync’ and you’re on your way.  I like the amount of content available on iTunes, I hate Windows Market Place and for that matter, I dislike the software that is packaged with the Zune — Why can’t I use Windows Media Player on a device from Microsoft?

Would I buy another one?  Without a doubt! Would I recommend it to someone else?  Absolutely!  Go get one!
