SanDisk - Sansa M230 512MB MP3 Player Reviews

I have bought several of these Sansa's and for the most part, they are really good MP3 players.  But I have found that two (out of five) of the Sansa's I have bought have come up with weird computer related glitches.  They work really well for about a month and then all of a sudden it doesn't work at all.  I get weird error messages and when I contacted SanDisk directly, they were unable to fix the issue through tech support.  They did, however, provide me with a replacement, but it experienced the same problem a couple of months down the line.  I'm tempted to think… read full review »

I got this player on Buy.Com as a refurbished model for $16.99 (not including the instant $10 Google Checkout rebate)...what a steal! — — I have both a Palm TX PDA and an RX4240 Pocket PC that can play MP3s (in addition to their more practical everyday uses).

You can play MP3s and WMAs. — — Also simple to operate. I'm not a kid - more like in the mid 40s -- and this is my first MP3 player. I bought it to use on a plane trip and now use it in the car hooked up to my car stereo. — — It's a nice little player for someone like me who likes to have about 100 songs on the device max. If you're looking to hold more songs, of course you… read full review »

This is a good mp3 player for the price you play. But it has a few drawbacks, my newest computer will not recognize this device at all though.  It takes a AAA battery and the battery life is extremely short.  You have to carry extra batteries around with you if your going to use it for any extended time. —… read full review »

I've had this for a year, and it's great. It lives in my car, and the weather here isn't warm - it's never had an issue with the cold ... or being dropped... It's not the sleekest looking mp3 player, and there are certainly bigger models, but I wouldn't trade this one for any of… read full review »

Very easy to use. You have to use Windows Media Player to download musc to it. You also can't play iTunes songs on it. Easier to use than an iPod, and runs off actual AAA batteries, so you don't have to keep charging it. It has a radio and many… read full review »
