Some customer reviews of Sandisk Sansa Clip+ 8GB

Most helpful reviews

Confirmed purchaser Music lover

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: It's pretty idiot proof, and has good storage capacity.
Bad points:: no hard lock button, unlike the previous version, volume a great deal lower. My old mp3 player - the 4gb sansa clipdisk with the circular buttons, could not go above half volume with my marshmallow earbuds without pain. This one, at full volume, is a little uncomfortable.

Confirmed purchaser Bargain hunter

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: This is a GREAT item. Really easy to load music on. Excellent sound. Very small & portable. Highly recommended.
Bad points:: The only negative I could find was sometimes when adding albums the tracks got mixed up with other albums. This was not a problem when playing the individual album but when just wanting to play player from the start it was a jumble of songs by different artists!

Ruth, North Yorkshire Music lover

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Very small and neat. Easy to work and sound quality is good.
Bad points:: Earpiece could be better quality. Found it hard to download music onto, only because I had never done it before. I don't have a lot of gadgets.

Charlesm, Salisbury Casual listener

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Small but not so small that you lose it, easy to use, good battery life (about 8 hours), expandable memory with the micro SD slot, easy usb connection to a PC, good sound quality from the supplied headphones.
Bad points:: The only bad point that stands out is that the remaining time of the track is not displayed although it is available in a sub menu.
