Customer reviews
Awesome performance, great value by .. M. Fallas (Costa Rica)
Sandisk Sansa Clip is defenetly a great idea for an extremely portable, affordable and high quality audio player. Doesn't only combine small size and weight with high capacity, but it also has a great sound quality, decent battery life, and an extraordinary codec support.
Launched probably as a low-end digital audio player, people soon started to realize that the built in sound chip was more than impressive, and the quality of the audio beats a lot of more expensive players in the market.
With a 4GB of capacity and an 8GB version coming soon, it has plenty of room to fit a mini music collection in there and not having to worry about changing your music in quite a while.
Also, with the latest firmware update, you will be able to play OGG and FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) high quality audio from this tiny little device.
A piece of advice... as soon as you get yours, proceed with the firmware upgrade to get the best out of your player. Also to avoid losing your personal customizations. FW Upgrade always resets the device to factory settings. If you already own it, backup your settings and music, and perform upgrade.
PROS:
-Sturdy
-Extremely Portable, small and lightweight.
-OLED power saving screen.
-MP3, WMA + Audible 4 support.
-OGG Vorbis support (After 1.01.29a Firware upgrade)
-FLAC support (After 1.01.30a Firware upgrade)
-Over average battery life
CONS
-No expandability slot (c'mon Sandisk)
-Not the best radio reception
-Included headphones are cheap (get decent ones, Sennheiser are great and mostly unexpensive)
-Fingerprint and scratch magnet (get a case ASAP)
-OLED screen stays on while charging (Oleds tend to die after ~5000 hrs of use)
The only reason why I'm not giving 5 stars is because I'd love a MicroSD slot to add some extra room to fit half my music collection in there if possible. I'd say this is 4.5 stars.
If you like to exercise, jog, play, or do whatever it is that you like, you don't want to carry a heavy delicate device with you that you must be aware of not dropping to protect valuable LCD screens, you don't need photos or movies, and you like to have great sound quality in your music or audiobooks, this player is for you. It's also great as a spare or second media player for active people.
Love this Clip by .. L. Snyder (New Columbia, PA USA)
I have used this player quite a bit since I got it. No problems so far. I think the controls are very easy to use. I am happy with this clip!
Sansa clip 4GB by .. R. Graczyk (Boston, MA USA)
The operation of the Sansa Clip is much better than expected. For a player that small, it provides all that I would want from it. The only disapointment are the earphones. Invest in a decent pair of earbuds, and you will be impressed.
Small, easy to use, great buy! by .. Edward W. Fournier (Bellingham, WA USA)
If you don't need album covers or photos this is a terrific player. The sound (equlization possible)is very good. The small size and effective clip are plusses.
I like it by .. Salah A. Abukheraiba (Qatar)
Some times I have some difficulties in plugging it with the pc, but generally it is good.
Am so happy with it.
