Great little MP3
This is a great little MP3! Compact in size, easy to use and holds a decent amount of songs, pics and video. The only negative about this is there is no wall charger for it. To charge, it must be connected to the USB on my computer. The price is reasonable for a 2gb player.

Great product for a great price!
I was looking for a decent portable mp3 player w/o video and after much research and reading the reviews, I decided on the Samsung K3 2Gb. I have only had it a couple weeks now but it was extremely easy to setup (with windows media player I just created playlists and synced them with the K3) and easy to use. The sound quality is very good (for a device of this size) and I haven't had any issues with the battery life that others are stating...but I haven't use it for extended periods of time yet. My only complaints, if you can call them that, are: 1. there is no way to delete songs w/o connecting to your computer (might be a good thing to keep from accidentally deleting I suppose) and 2. there is no "stop" button, only a "pause/play" button (which may explain the battery life issue).

All in all this is a great mp3 player that looks great, is easy to use, and sounds really good! I highly recommend it! In fact my children are asking for the 4Gb for Christmas after seeing mine, and that is what they are going to receive (if they're good of course ;).

Doesn't hold a candle to the ipod
This mp3 player is Samsung's answer to the ipod, however, it falls a bit short of the mark. The price is great but there are a few drawbacks. The battery doesn't seem to last nearly as long as the ipod's, the cable doesn't like to stay plugged in, and the software isn't as intuitive or user friendly as itunes.

This product earns 4 stars, though, mainly for the bargain price and the fact that it is actually a good mp3 player. Just not as good as the ipod.

Love it!
My husband bought me this for Christmas last year and I love it! About 3 months later we had a break in and it was stolen. My husband went out immediatley and bought me another one. I already had all my music stored on our computer so I just loaded it up again and was a happy girl!It's so easy to use, easy to load music on, and just over all great. Very sleak, wonderful sound. I walk my dog everynight for about an hour or more and I always have it with me and only have to charge it about every 2-3 weeks. I love it so much I am buying one for my best friend this year for Christmas! Well worth the money and she'll love as much as I do!
