Like it alot.Nov 05, 2009
I bought this MP3 for my husband, for his birthday. I have a similar one, myself. He is very happy with his. Much easier to use than his last player. Sound quality is very good, though I wish the volume would go a little higher.
FLAC EVERYWHERENov 01, 2009
One feature very important is the capability to play FLAC. It brings the pleasure for listening to higher realms, but requires better ear buds.
 Great Bang PlayerOct 28, 2009
No other media player can offer the value of the Sansa Fuze 8GB. Forget iPod, Zune and the others. Appealing low profile design. Extremely easy to navigate menus. Good sound, of course not using the included head phones. Nice screen resolution and brightness, thought I would not watch a lot of videos or view many pictures on this: it's for music playback. And bonus FM radio and voice recorder. Previously had Creative Zen, which had outstanding sound, but after 5 years the battery did not hold charge for more than 1 hour and it was only 4GB. This player is 8GB out of the box, plus with a Micro SD slot, I got another 8GB! A ton of multimedia to take on a long trip....
And did I mention you are not stuck with any proprietary schemes and format(iTunes, .acc etc)? And Kubuntu 9.04 recognized it without a problem.
Highly recommended to anyone in a market for a portable media player.
 Review after a year of serviceOct 25, 2009
I've owned mine for over a year I use it to listen to audiobooks, music, fm and workout tunes, After several firmware updates SanDisk has not fixed all the bugs. Don't try to call the company for support (horrible customer support).
The latest firmware update seems to have created more issues while pimping their $40 music card. Seems the firmware was not to fix the problems but to pimp to existing customers. Yea, I'm special to them.
I've decided that my next mp3 will not be anything from SanDisk.

A piece of junkOct 17, 2009
I spent all day loading my music onto this thing and the disk I bought with it and went to play it tonight and lo and behold every single song I play skips and hiccups horribly as though every single MP3 file I copied them from came off of a broken CD. I also had made several changes to artist and album names and rearranged several songs through my computer and the changes were accurately reflected on my computer, but none of those changes were reflected in the player. I had very high hopes for this device but it is simply terrible.
