User Submitted Samsung YP-P2JCB P2 8 GB Touchscreen Bluetooth Portable Media Player (Black) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-01-31 An excellent Anti-Apple I don't pretend to be an expert on portable DAPs. This is only my second one (up from a Palm Zire 72 with PocketTunes). Screen is sharp and bright. Audio quality with the included earbuds is right on par with my Logitech X-530 surround speakers (even with 128kbps MP3s). The 7-band EQ really makes a difference when properly tuned (use a preset from WinAmp or Windows Media Player as a guide). The interface is smooth and responsive, and it works great as a bluetooth headset with my phone (Motorola V195). Can even use it with a bluetooth enabled PC and Skype. Red vs Blue videos look good too. Words of advise: Windows Media Player is a better option for syncing music, and drag WMVs directly to the device using Windows Explorer (works better). Install the included application anyways for datacasts. Get the firmware update ASAP (samsung.com). Date: 2008-01-29 amazing Amazing player, definitely worth the money. While it may not be listed, it does understand OGG/AAC music files (tagging support is not 100% yet, probably in a new firmware update). Great to use with winamp, autosync/autofill makes things a breeze if you organize it as such. Understands XVID!! Beautiful screen, very easy interface. No, HD to break. Cons: As said before, OGG/ACC tags are not supported yet (at least transcoded in winamp), though this will probably be fixed in the future. Also, OGG is not understood as a file it can play by windows vista, so it will ask if you really want to transfer the file (just say yes to all and it works anyway). Winamp album art transfer is a bit buggy (probably winamp's fault, who knows). Its a flash player, so you only get 8gb, more than enough if you properly encode your files though, 1 day 12 hours worth of music is less than 50% of the space (~128kbps VBR mp3's), though this is technically a positive if you run/work out with it. Bottum Line: Get this player, not just because its an alternative to the ipod, but because its better than the ipod. Date: 2008-01-27 a few weeks impressions I bought this because i wanted a nice large screen, and i don't like iPods. I fully believe i couldn't have chosen a better player. The screen is beautiful, the sound is amazing, and the customizable menus are really nice. The included software has a nice little feature of making play lists automatically based on the mood of songs (think passionate, cheerful, sweet, and quiet). Another nice feature is the fact that you don't NEED the software to transfer songs or videos, or anything. you can open the player as a portable hard drive in your computer. Best player those of us that don't like ipods. Date: 2008-01-25 Amazing. Amazing product. When you first get it, you will be in awe of how sexy it looks. Something I want to address is the touch screen. People are saying it is unresponsive, but this isn't true. The touch screen is something you get used to rather than being able to use as soon as you pick it up. IMO, this is better for the long run. Also, they are adding JAVA to the P2 on the next bluewave update (within January). Seriously. That means you can put games and applications that you want on it. Date: 2008-01-21 THE BEST MP3 PLAYER First I would like to thank this seller for offering this item at an amazing price. I paid the same amount for an 8gb as stores were selling for a 4gb. Item came new as advertised and wrapped in shrink wrap. Shipping was fast too. The actual player is amazingly simple to use. The video display is crystal clear and have been using it everyday for a solid month and am yet to have a problem. The only downside to the samsung is its affiliation to rhapsody. I found rhapsody to be very overpriced to buy music and videos. A plus though is clicking and dragging songs from my laptop to the mp3 player takes split seconds. Im very pleased with this items size, durability, and battery life. It also weighs about half of the Apple video. Though the apple has a bigger hard drive there is very little you could do to pursuade me to have made a different choice. I would recomend this media player to anyone who loves music and video on the go.
