Sumvision Phoenix

Advantages: voice recording and easy to operate
Disadvantages: no radio and large design

...if you are thinking of buying this product i have a few points i would like you to consider. There is many reasons to buy this product like its great value for money - i brought mine for around £46.99, which considering it has 256mb memory is a good deal. It also has a sleek stylish design which makes it good on the eye. it also a helpful instruction manual which make it easy to use. but there is also many for you consider buying another product, such as, when you have added more than fifty songs on to its memory the songs start to overlap each other. The sumvision also has poor battery life which cuts out regulary. Even though it has a nice design the size of the product may put you offf as it is over 10 and a half cm long. i hope this review helped you when considering what product you want to buy!! Thank you for reading my review... Read review

Advantages: Long battery life, voice recorder, no usb cable required, cheap price, etc (see below)
Disadvantages: Requires AAA battery, all tag info must be filled in for songs to play in order

...The Sumvision M18 is a very reasonably priced MP3 player. It takes a little while to work out how to use it - the instruction manual is very clear but I would recommend detailed reading. This is the first of these players that I have bought - (bought 18 months ago and still works perfectly) - my newest one is the 1GB model which I bought 2 months ago. As a recommendation though, I would say to keep hold of the instruction manual. I lost mine and then managed to change the language on my Sumvision M18 to chinese symbols. It took me 2 weeks to work out how to change it back to english. These players take 1 AAA battery - and I have found that if you buy reasonable quality batteries you can get 15-20 hours playing time per battery. It would still be better if it could be recharged by USB, but I have found the batteries are fairly... Read review
