Samsung YP-Q1, iPod killer?

Advantages: Lightweight, Great Screen, HQ Audio, BBC Iplayer Support, Good Value
Disadvantages: Over sensetive diamond pad,

...I have purchased my YP-Q1 just a day ago, and yet i am already in love. with some minor problems, which i will address in the following review, as-well as the reasons i love this more than my old iPod. Samsung have won my heart over, this cracking piece of design is playing the highest quality music to me, with a lasting battery, a phenomenal screen. even ease of use comparable to Ipod. how good this is blows my brain and all in a package 1 Third Cheaper than its equivalent Ipod counterpart Sound quality is great, with Samsungs very own dynamic natural sound engine which has been in development a while, the Q1 was the first player to have DNse 3.0, this may sound good in words, but wait until you hear the player. its sound quality in FLAC format is absolutely amazing, it makes me lost for words, With MP3 format at 320kb/s it sounds...

Review of Samsung YP-Q1 8GB

This MP3 is for me

Advantages: Samsung, stylish, range of music playback modes; reliable
Disadvantages: Nothing lasts forever

...My MP3 is practically my best friend; it goes everywhere with me and I don't think cycling would be the same without it. I once had an IPOD shuffle but it got stolen. Although distraught, I have to admit it wasn't practicable because there was no screen - you couldn't see what you was playing. I bought a Samsung 1GB KP3 which was really stylish and reliable. The obnly problem was that I ran out of room on a 1GB. That's when I decided to get an 8GB YP-Q1 at only £70 from Amazon! Bargain for an 8GB which stores 4000 songs! *Features Okay, lets describe the product. I treasure Samsung which is reknown for its quality and liability- both my phones are Samsung (G600) and (J700) and they are made really well and are a major leading manufactuer in the technology industry (Phioens, TV, DVD, MP3 etc). I was drawn to the Q1 because I really...

Review of Samsung YP-Q1 4GB

Simply Amazing

Advantages: Looks, Sounds, And Works Absolutely Perfectly
Disadvantages: The On/Off/Lock Switch, Emodio

...EDIT 03/06/2009: EmoDio review expanded Hey guys, been a while! Reviewing can be time consuming, hence I havn't got around to going any other reviews. But I simply had to, for this wonderful little machine! The Samsung YP-Q1 comes in memory sizes 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB. For those who don't know the meaning of this, one GB (GigaByte) is 1024 MegaBytes. Your average MP3 file is about 4 MegaBytes, but it's different with me since I listen to metal songs, and on average, these are longer than other genres. But 16GB will be a challenge to full up (I've filled up 14GB, so i'm close!), but i'm a MASSIVE music lover. So it's up to you to decide which size you need, based on your music library. To help you out, each album on average is about 70MB. So get counting! These MP3 players are a far cheaper alternative to the iPod. A 16GB i...

Review of Samsung YP-Q1 16GB

Samsung YP best model yet!!

Advantages: big memory which stores up to1000 of songs,can delete music via the mp3 player,
Disadvantages: the navigation round the mp3 could be hard, depends on your technological level though.

...editing software which makes the sound even more better. This Mp3 player also has a 3D four line display which writes in white making it easy to read. Itis also WMA compatible meaning you can store more songs using less memory (if you use WMA file). If you don't have windows XP or 2000 or any windows above those mentioned don't worry because it comes with an installation CD which also has the manual which you can save on your computer if you want. Its best that you register the Mp3 player with samsung just after you receive it for the reason that the serial number rubs offs really quickly and when they ask you to register it they would want to know the serial number just for security reasons. Registering is also another good oppoturnity of winning Samsung products because whenever you register for the warranty you will be automatically...

Review of Samsung YP-U2R 2GB

Samsung YP-T10 8GB

Advantages: sleek but simple - a great alternative to ipods, with the added bonus of bluetooth
Disadvantages: faulty touchscreen keys, slow scrolling

...When I first bought this product it was very new to the market, and I had numerous problems installing the Samsung software on my computer. Eventually it installed, but I found the Samsung music organiser not as convenient or easy to use as Windows Media Player, so I still use that to syncronise my music to the player. Since buying it, I am regularly shown new downloads to update the player, which I have found easy to install. On the whole I have actually noticed that these updates have made a visible improvement to the features of the player. The screen is clear and menus are easy to use to find what file you're looking for, whether you're browsing by artist, genre or playlist, etc. However, if you have a long list of things, for example a list of album titles, you can't scroll through the list quickly to find one a long way down...

Review of Samsung YP-T10 8GB

Samsung YP-U2R 2GB

Advantages: Samsung, lot of space, lasts heavy use.
Disadvantages: It can only charge through USB.

...----------Writers Notice--------- The facts stated are the facts as I believe them to be, but I do not claim they are the undenyable truth. Opinions expressed are mine, and I do not claim anybody else shares these opinions with me. ------ Intro ----- The product is by Samsung, which already kind of stands for awesome, maybe it is just me, but every product I have had from Samsung was great and longlasting, with usually the options you want on that product. This is a 2GB ( 1964MB? ) MP3 player, even though it supports alot of other audiofiles. It will not play videos or display pictures, its pure music. ---- Functions ----- The obvious ones first: Hold - Unless you slide it from hold again no button will respond. Next - Play next track ( does not work in 'hold' ) Prev - Play previous track ( also won't work while on 'hold...

Samsung YP-U3 1GB - Half the size, more music

Advantages: Small and discreet with an array of features at a low price
Disadvantages: at 1GB, bigger players can hold a lot more songs, not perfect for people who need more storage

...First of all, we will begin with the size, at W x D x H. 11 x 25.4 x 80 mm with a weight of just 22.8g it can squeeze into the smallest of pockets with ease - perfect for people on the move who don't like to carry around big players. It operates on the USB 2.0 standard which means less frustration when waiting hours for songs to be transferred!. The Samsung YP-U3 1GB has a battery life of up to 15 hours which is absolutely amazing compared to older mp3 players which operated on AAA size batteries which lasted for roughly 3-4 hours and needing fresh batteries. For a player of its size, it can hold a fantastic 500 songs in mp3 format and of course almost double in wma format. Cosmetically, it is very attractive and user friendly, with touch sensitive buttons and colour screen with built in equalizer it's something you'll surely want...

Review of Samsung YP-U3 1GB

Snap Happy Samsung!

Advantages: Great camera at a great price.
Disadvantages: None at the price, you get a great item for what you pay!

...up to A1/A2 size, I would not notice the difference compared to a cheaper model with slightly less megapixels. Thus, I was directed towards the 10MP Samsung ES55. I had wanted something with excellent picture quality that I could use in low light conditions, taking pictures in clubs and indoors. I would also use the camera to take pictures for my business. But, more poignantly, I needed something cheap! I'm pretty broke and I had expected to fork out quite a lot for a quality camera to meet my requirements. I'm also quite interested in art, so as a hobby, had intended on taking up a bit of photography. When buying a camera, it would be helpful to make a list of your primary needs and budget and see what falls into your category. I was told this would be the Samsung. Sorry if I am droning on at this stage, but I really do think...

Review of Samsung YP-U2RXB 512 MB

Light, small, fast, and amazing battery. Cant fault the Q1U

Advantages: Lightweight but very functional!
Disadvantages: Small HDD? Thats all i can fault really!

...Great little tablet PC with only a few drawbacks. Firstly the battery life is INCREDIBLE. On battery-save mode you get 12 hours with the big battery!! The screen is clear, the touchscreen is responsive and accurate. Some people have said the 600mhz version is slow but mine launches fullscreen video whilst web browsing with no problems at all. Worth being careful with the bloatware you install as there's a big selection on the disk, but you dont really need much of it. As for the downsides... some versions dont have the SD slot, either of the 2 cameras, bluetooth, the fingerprint reader, or the control buttons on the top right of the screen (volume etc) so be very careful to check when you buy - the model number doesnt tell you this! This isnt a problem with the device, just the way it's sold. Personally i cant fault the Q1U. I'd have...
