(+) Great screen quality and size, built in speaker and stand. (-) The only downside is that it is fragile, and can be hard to get used to the on screen keyboard.

Advantages: None Disadvantages: Overpriced, Lack Of Memory
The sandisk sansa view 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 ...

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 ...
Advantages: Cheap, easy to use, good functionality, good battery life, looks good Disadvantages: If anything, you can't choose your own wallpaper. Hardly a massive problem!
General - Fantastic low-budget mp4 player
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 ...
Advantages: Weighs 400g Disadvantages: More features needed
The SandiskSansa e260 is a small, stylish MP3 music player that comes with a crisp color screen for viewing videos and photos. The device can play MP3 and WMA music and common digital video formats, as well as display photographs. The available models (with 2GB, 4GB, or 6GB storage capacity) can be expanded with a removable memory card. You can load music to the player simply by copying MP3 and WMA tracks from your computer, but you have to put photos and videos through a special treatment. Sandisk provides Sansa Media Converter software with the product, allowing you to turn your AVI, MPG, MP4, MOV, and WMV videos into a format that the SanDiskSansa e-series products can play. The same applies to photographs; you must run your JPEG, GIF, BMP, and TIFF pictures through the Sandisk software before you can load them to the player ...
