Elizabeth, London

+ Very good sound and easy manipulation of features via the touch screen. Also looks very classy and is very lightweight.

- Only negative point is that it didn't come with a protective case and could be easily scratched. It is quite difficult to find a suitable case that it fits in smoothly so it would be a good idea if Samsung included this with the product, even if it meant charging a few pounds extra.

Neil, Salisbury

+ Eye catching but understated modern design with a sound to die for, from Pink Floyd to Robbie Williams the sound is rich, orchestral undoubtedly one of the best sound reproductions I have heard (MP3).

- None, I love it!

Anonymous verified purchaser

+ Compact and neat , brilliant sound. No need to recharge the battery too often.
Haven;t used all the operations - mainly listening to music.
Being in mid seventies I find the MP3 incredibly clear - however changed from the earphones supplied with it and upgraded to the type which attach round the ears themselves which I prefer.

- Found the operation of putting sound up and down difficult to grasp - and sometimes found I had lost the sound completely and having to restart. Possibly my own fault.

TERRY, HAYES MIDDLESEX

+ Great style with excellent sound. Despite some reviews find controls easy to use. Digital radio is easy to use with great reception even on the move. Loading music via WMP is just an exercise in drag and drop via the usb lead supplied. Used in the car via an FM transmitter so is nearly always fully charged.
LED controlS mean it is easy to use in dark or low light.

- Fingerprints on polished finish means it needs constant wiping to keep looking good.
