Samsung YP-P2JAR P2 4 GB Slim Portable Media Player (Burgundy)

I love it. Works great, the battery life seems good, the buttons on the sides are pretty handy, being able to set up your own background is nice. The only two complaints I have are that it is new (ie doesn't have many accessories out yet) and it makes it very easy to watch my favorite movies during class...

I had used this freak mp3 player.
Here is reasons why I am saying piece of poop.
1. SOUND : I can tell this mp3 has the best sound quality. BUT!!! Nothing good beside sound.
2. Video : Holy Poop. Everytime, you have to convert video clip in to .svi!! How bad is it....Furthermore, quality of video sucks.
3. Picture : IPOD TOUCH is better! Slow slide show.
4. TEXT VIEW : KILLS YOUR BATTERY!!
5. RADIO : YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW!! YOU WILL NOT HEAR ANY CHANNELS. USELESS!!!
6. DATACAST : WHAT THE HELL!! USELESS FUNCTION. YOU WILL NOT USE THIS KIND OF FUNCTION IN THE FUTURE. UNLIKE TOUCH, YOU HAVE TO UPDATE EVERY NIGHT!!!
7. BLUETOOTH : HOW EXPENSIVE IT IS. AT LEAST BLUETOOTH WILL COST YOU $40. YP-P2 8GB + BLUETOOTH = IPOD TOUCH 8GB
8. GUI : ONLY 3 DIFFERENT TYPES.
9. LIMITED DEGREE OF FREEDOM IN YOUR MP3
10. LOTS OF DIFECTIVE DOTS ON SCREEN
11. SLOW REACTION (TOUCH SENSOR)

RESULT : Yp-P2 has bunch of problems. YOU WILL REGRET!! I RECOMMEND YOU TO BUY OTHER PRODUCT!

This is my third Samsung mp3 player. I own a YP-MT6Z, a YP-T9, and now this. I'm really thoroughly impressed with this player. The touch screen interface simplifies some tasks, such as quickly finding a song in a list. No more multiple button presses, just scroll your finger down to the song and tap.

The screen is beautiful and clear. They give you two screen protectors, but I'm horrible at applying them, so I just keep a microfiber cloth handy.

it comes with a nice mini stand that allows you to prop the device up at an angle while it's on a flat surface. That way you don't have to carry it in your hand while you watch video.

Video is clear and smooth. Be certain to configure the media studio to encode at 30 fps, because it defaults to 15, and that's too choppy.

I don't have bluetooth headphones, but I'd love to use that functionality. Turn it off if you don't have the headphones, though (it is on by default).

The ability to hear your music while browsing the other menus is really good. I can play a song, go through some photos, change some settings, build a playlist, and never have to worry about my current song stopping.

Gesture based functions come off without a hitch. Personally, the earbuds provided do not stay in my ears, but they do provide a decent sound quality.

I definitely recommend this. If I had any complaints, it would be that it doesn't come bundled with a pair of bluetooth headphones, and that there is no way to charge it without a usb port. Oh, and a carry case couldn't have hurt.

EDIT: I've since updated the firmware and if I could give an extra star, I would. The bluetooth functionality they added really boosts the value of the device. Out of the box, it can already pair with a set of bluetooth headphones, but as of December, it can also pair with your phone. If you've been wondering what the mic on the bottom of the device is for, that would be it. You pair it with your phone, and when you get a call, you get a tone in your headphones to let you know a call is coming. Take out your P2, answer the call, and speak through the mic while you hear them on the headphones. It's great. You can also add your address book to the P2, so that you can see specifically who is calling just as you would on your phone. I've used this with my Blackberry Curve, and it's really great. I was easily able to send my address book via bluetooth over to the P2, and call quality was pretty good.

I had a little trouble with the file transfer, but I'm blaming myself for that, not the device. Pick this one up.
