Samsung YP-Z5QS 2 GB

I bought this as a replacement for my IPod Mini which after a year kept locking up and the earphone contacts were bad I decided upon the 2GB version as I never filled my 4GB Ipod up anyhow. It cost me just £100 on Amazon which as you can see is already cheaper than its rivals. I chose the black version. When I opened it the first thing I noticed was the size of the box, and the unit itself, which was tiny! It's not as thin as the Ipod Nano boasts ...
...is also very light, yet feels solid as it is made partly of aluminum and not just plastic. It is also scratch resistant which is definetly true, as I've carried it in my bag amongst keys and theres not a mark on it. I couldn't wait to get it up and running. There was no soaftware to install as I just plugged and played. I just opened the My Music folder and dragged and dropped the music into the players folder. I also learned how to copy JPEGS to ...

Review of Samsung YP-Z5QS 2 GB

Having had this MP3 player now for nearly 2 years, I have not had any problems with it. It is very reliable, never crashes, freezes etc on me, is really easy to put music on, and is at a very reasonable price, even the 4GB is very affordable and very durable, I have dropped mine countless times without any problems. Something you may not think of is that the screen is very clear and easy to use in all lights(brightness of screen can also be altered) ...
...to people who have a large music library, but are often able to change the music on the MP3 player due to the 2GB only holding around 500 songs, and the 4GB holding around 1000 songs. Fits easily into ipod nano(older shape) pouches therefore good for sports etc. one downfall is that the picture viewer can be a bit sluggish, and I found having pictures on slowed down the whole system(longer to load songs etc) However very good MP3 player and I would ...

Review of Samsung YP-Z5QS 2 GB

I'm not exactly techno savvy, but once I got the hang of using it, it was simple to use and the best part is that it's light and small enough to carry discreetly in a jacket pocket or a bag to hide it from potential thieves. The 2GB of space means that you can have loads of songs loaded on it, which is perfect for long car, bus or plane journeys. The price is very good, I've seen many MP3 Players being sold in stores for at least £150 but to date ...
...this product that was worth the money it was being advertised for. The screen is easy to clean, but unfortunately it does gather dust easily so it has to be cleaned regularly. The sound quality is excellent; the noise is crisp, clear and doesn't 'skip' or 'jump' like some products. It's simple to use and the instructions make it clear about which buttons do what. It's a very durable product, I've dropped mine many times and so far it still works, ...

Review of Samsung YP-Z5QS 2 GB

...i decided to buy the samsung ypz5q rather than the over rated apple ipods. my main reason was the cost. however, this mp3 player has all you need for listening to music. it has great sound quality and the navigation is so easy. For those who dont want to fork out Apple prices, i highly recommend this Mp3 player.The only bad thing i have to say about it, is that its not as slim line as the ipod and the installation disc to put on the pc is not foolproof.However, ...
