Sansa E250 - comparable to Apple I-pod

Strengths: Easy to use, ability to upgrade memory with micro SD cards, great sound, clear crisp screen

Weakness: Only that is is not an "I-pod"

This MP3 player is a great MP3 player and very much comparable to the Apple I-pod. The battery life holds a good charge and is what you would expect. The screen is clear and crisp. I also like how the casing is titanium and should not scratch. SO far so good! The wheel button is similar to the I-pod and is easy to use as is the categories. This was purchased for a twelve year old boy. Displays...

Just got the sansa e250

Strengths: - Comprehensive feature set - Crisp video quality - Very good 1.8" screen. - Easy transfer of music (through UMS)

Weakness: - Cheap and tacky scroll wheel - Radio reception is patchy - Buggy software (however Sandisk seems to be working hard to resolve it) - Can't play music while charging

Got this baby (e250) 4 days ago from my local BestBuy for $160 taxes included. Its my first MP3 player and here's my first impressions about it... The e250 looks extremely good except for the scroll wheel. It looks cheap and tacky as compared to the rest of the player. And also creates a problem while pressing the buttons along the periphery. The included phones are adequate though I am looking...

Sansa e250 2G MP3

Strengths: great display and readout. Following menu is easy to understand. Convenient holding of music, photos and video. Great compact size. Headphones are good, sound is great.

Weakness: Had a few problems with the music files staying updated. I Called customer service twice for help. I was told that because it was copyrighted I needed to, and may need to on a regular basis,plug it in

I really like this product. My first 'problems' occurred a few days after I bought, so thought it was the player. Had it been defective, I would have replaced it with the same player because I really wanted to keep it. It seems fine now. Sounds great, looks great, easy to operate, holds lots of files and the small compact size is convenient. The pricing was definitely a plus.

Great features in a small body!

Strengths: Rich sound, easy connection and manage with PC, vivid video and photo playback, and FM tuner plus voice recorder! Solid body.

Weakness: Lack of support for more video formats, and asian language support.

I just had it in my hand and played with it. Simply by the look of it I'm immediately in love with this new Sandisk product, esp. when the blue control ring lights up in the middle. This thing has the right volume for my normal hiking use, and I prefer to load different songs on it frequently. The video and photo looks great on it which is higher than my expectation, the only drawback to this...

Great mp3 player better than ipod

Strengths: video and pictures are really good. sound quality is ok

Weakness: you have to delete song on the computer and not the mp3 player buttons are to close to the scroll wheel

When you buy this new it comes fully charged and ready to use. It doesn't come with a wall charger i charge mine through my playstation 2 this is my second mp3 player and by far the best

Sandisk sansa E250 - a good alternative to ipod nano

Strengths: Size and appearance, color screen, FM tuner, price, user removable battery and Micro SD slot

Weakness: Scroll wheel and placement of buttons

Presently, the E250 is a one of the best alternatives to ipod nano in the market. It offers a lot of bells and whistles that is not available in ipod nano. The Sansa E250 is no match for the ipod nano in terms of the interface. The scroll wheel on this player is not as easy as the click wheel on nano.However, on the whole it is an excellent media player.Overall build quality feels solid except...

Great music video player!!!

Strengths: Good sound quality, smooth video playing. Vivid big screen, long battery life.

Weakness: Stiff buttons, screen can not turn off during usb charging, limited video navigation function.

This mp3 and video player is one of the best I even see. The material feels good and it has a big vivid colorful screen with multi-functions such as playing music, video, voice recording and FM radio. I extremely like the video function because it does play most video smoothly! Although it needs the software to convert the video format, but the video quality is unbeliveable good. I copy some MTV...

Excellent multi-media players!

Strengths: Play music as well as video, FM radio. Solid materials, easy navigation, bright and big screen.

Weakness: Navigation panel and button is hard to press, screen can not turn off during charging

This is a very good multi-media player, just beat ipod! The functions are powerful. It can play mp3, wmv music files, and it also play movies smoothly! The software is easy to use for converting avi movies to its own format. The FM radio reception is also good. The menu is very easy to use. The screen is colorful and big. I would highly recommend this player!

Sandisk sansa e250

Strengths: screen, video, sleek & good looking

Weakness: compatibility of video, buttons are a little hard to use but workable

this is an excellent mp3 player i am very happy with it, compared to my girlfriend's ipod nano this rocks. i only wish they had made it a little more versatile with regard to video formats, but with the right converters anything is possible.

this sansa e250 mp3 player is the best one I ever...

Strengths: pretty look. great sound. and the screen is pretty good. navigation is also good. Long battery life.

Weakness: can only charge the battery by USB. and the screen will be on all the way when connected to computer. you have to convert the video file before transfer, and the conversion is kind of slow.

I just got my sansa few days ago, and when I first saw it I am loving it. It looks just like the ipod nano, but with lower price. Screen looks good, and you can watch a movie on this screen very clearly. and the sound system is also very good compared with other similar ones, like ipod nano. And my friend who has a ipod nano told me that his ipod keeps 'skipping' when he is jogging with it. but...
