SanDisk - Sansa e260 MP3 Player Reviews

I've had my Sansa e260 for about a year now.  The Sansa e260 is a 4GB MP3 player.  It's a nice size--not too big or too small.  I have a few pictures of my kids, a couple short videos taken with my digital camera, and plenty of music on my Sansa.  I don't use the FM tuner and I haven't tried the Voice Recorder yet, but the options are there if ever I need them.  The screen is a little small, but clear.  The controls are acceptable.  I especially like the lighted circle control.  It's raised and easy to feel even in the dark to change your volume levels.  Some of the other control buttons...

The Sandisk Sansa series of mp3 players is probably the best out there. Simply use Windows Explorer to move media back and forth is simple. It requires no software, like iTunes that makes your pc slow to a crawl and cumbersome to transfer media to your player.

The radio reception is great and the ability to record from the radio or a memo for later is great, too.

To me, the simply of transferring media more than outweighs the lack of playing the mp3 player while connected to a pc. All my music is backed up on my pc anyhow.

We have an e250 and e260 in our house already. I'll be getting one for myself...

I recieved the sansa e60 as a christmas present and at the time i believe it was around $170 for the 4gb version.

pros: has many features:

- fm radio

-video

-photobook

-recorder (can record both voice and radio)

-rhapsody enabled for easy mp3 transfer with service

-scroll wheel, like an ipod

-album covers upload with songs

-custom sound you set yourself

 cons:

-Playlists. This comes with pre-loaded playlists, complete with terribly cheesy names and worse music. if you do not want to subscribe to rhapsody, the only playlist you can set up is the "on the go", which is set from the mp3 player itself and not...

It's small and light, which makes it great for an active user.

The included software works like a charm and drag and drop loading is a snap.

The sound is quite good. I am no audiophile, but I will say that with a decent pair of headphones or ear buds it will come alive with clear highs, solid bass and everything in between. If you are not really happy with the sound there are plenty of EQ presets to satisfy your sound desires.

The screen is pretty good as well. I did not have any intentions to watch videos on it, but now that I have it, I can definitely see myself loading up a few vids to watch...

My husband had gotten into running last year, and for Christmas expressed that he wanted an mp3 player.  I did a LOT of research, read reviews online and spoke with friends who had various different players.  I considered the ipods but when I found out that if you have an ipod/itunes on your computer ... you can't use any other mp3 players with that computer anymore.  That wouldn't have been a big deal except that we have two boys who also LOVE to listen to music and I wasn't going to invest into an ipod for them while they are in elementary school.

The Sansa e260 is SO very easy to use, it...

I purchased this after checking out all my options, and price was a huge factor for me, so that was one of the first things I looked at...

After reading tech reviews and user reviews, this got great reviews and was ranked equal to or most times higher than the iPod!  I picked it up, and haven't been happier since.  The controls are easy to use, the sound quality is great, and the battery charge lasts days.

My daughter has a Sansa but a different model.  She was having trouble with her player and I was given the chance to deal with their customer service dept.  I was very happy with the way they...

I bought this one after looking for quite some time for a good mp3 player. I had my previous one for over 3 years and although I loved it, it was time for it to be retired. I am very picky when it comes to mp3 players. They have to be attractive, reasonably priced and come with a memory card slot so I can expand the storage. That is why it took me so long to find a new one, not many mp3s come with expandable storage anymore. I know that I will probably never use up the 4 gigs but it is nice to have the option to expand if I need to. I like that it is small and lightweight so it doesnt weigh me...
