Appearance - Very pretty piece of kit. The front is glossy, the back an nice tasteful matt black. When you turn it on, the wheel glows a lovely blue and a pleasing welcome message appears. The screen is clear and sharp. There are smaller players, but it has a good feel in the hand and is big enough so I don't lose it, but small enough I can take it in my handbag.
Functionality - Excellent. Plug the USB cable into any computer and simply drag and drop music folders into it. A simple bit of software supplied provided allows you to do the same with pictures and movies. So far have had no problems with either. Operating the View is also easy and intuitive, using the wheel on the front. Menus are easy to use, and you can view in a number of different ways, such as by artist, by albumn. Pics can be shown in a slideshow too. Although it's a cheap player, they have taken some time to make sure the software is fairly decent.
Sound and video - Sound quality is good enough for me, although apparently not as good as some more expensive players. But if like me you are using it on the train or other noisy situations, I don't think I've noticed the difference. It is better than other MP3 players I've owned so it's certainly not a bad one, but those with high-end requirements, might be disappointed. Video is also very good considering the screen size. Haven't noticed any lag or problems with playback.
Battery life - when I bought the View I was dissapointed it didn't come with a mains charger. However, a full charge via USB takes a couple of hours and lasts for around 30-40 hours depending on what you are doing. As it charges when you are adding content via the USB cable, it tends to top it up quite well, so it's been rare I've found it with no charge (even after a week of travelling).
Adding space - you can also add an extra 8Gb by inserting a mini-SD card. I've used the card I have for my phone, and it works fine. Shows all the photos I've taken and the music I have stored. Will probably buy a card for it when I reach the 16GB limit, but that won't be for a bit!
Good bits - feels nice in your hand, looks nice when you turn it on and the lights come on, easy to use, expandable memory, excellent value
Bad (ish bits) - can't use own backdrop, no mains charger, comes with some content on it that can't be deleted (pics, tunes etc), headphones supplied are a bit rubbish
Advantages: None Disadvantages: Overpriced, Lack Of Memory
The sandisksansaview 8gb is a great product with so many great features about it but its so over priced that its just a waste of money. you can buy an ipod for about 150 pounds which have much more memory. i wouldent recomend this product to any one. its simply just a rip off. it does the same as what evry other music and video product does. it hasent got a very good design and it is also quite big wich maked i harder to use it out and about. you wouldent be able to use this as a portable mp3 player as it is just to big to have in your pocket. i dont recomend this product to anywon as it is so overpriced and due to lack of memory. ...
Advantages: Good battery life, good playback, easy navigation, nice design, MicroSD slot Disadvantages: Wheel is a bit cheap and tacky
INTRO
I bought myself a SanDiskSansaView (16GB version) because I found my previous MP3 / Video player a bit too bulky and heavy (Creative Zen Vision M 60GB) to carry around. I figured I was hardly using any of the storage anyway so thought a 16GB alternative would suffice. I didn?t want to be tied into iTunes to transfer music to the device so an Apple iPod was out of the question. This one cost me £103 from Amazon.
The SansaView comes in 8GB, 16GB and 32GBcapacities. All have a MicroSD memory card slot so you could add some more memory should the need arise. Not sure if it supports cards of more than 8GB though. It has a good amount of storage without the memory upgrade, which can be used for music, videos and any other file with maybe a size restriction of up to 4GB due to the file system (the format the drive is ...
