Mp3 Player, USB Mp3 Player with FM Radio, idoooz U2 8GB Music Player Expandable UP to 32 GB, USB Stick Mp3 Player for Running, Recording, Gym, Jogging, Sports, Lossless Sound Quality

It is amazing what technology has done with the ol' Memory Stick!! It is now an MP3 player that can function in the older capacity, broadcast FM radio signals and be a "walkman" in a small conveniently sized package! It has many features including volume adjustment, display the choice of radio station, the name and album particulars of the song being played in the large memory. Being a small "stick", it lends itself to smaller fingers when tuning and operating all the control features, instead of the meat sticks my Mother gave me a long time ago. I am pleased with its performance and use it and the included ear buds while exercising daily by directing my attention away from the pain, sweat and agony of trying to stay healthy.

Been looking for a small mp3 to be used when skateboarding and decided to try this idooz unit due to the decent reviews. I don't plan on using this device as a voice recorder, hook up to car receiver, or radio. It is nice to have these options but unfortunately can't comment on those specific functions. Upon receiving it I was impressed by the size, the mp3 player is about the length of my index finger (3.5") and less than two fingers thick (1 1/8"). Fits in my pocket perfectly weighs less than my AKG earbuds. I did spend a few minutes reading through the user manual before touching the unit to try and get familiar with idooz user interface; it's really not that difficult to figure out even if you dive in blindly. I followed another reviewers recommendation on labelling songs using numeric values (the user manual clearly describes this process FYI). I currently do not have songs saved to this device. All my music is uploaded to a 16gb micro sd card (formatted FAT32) which the mp3 accesses quickly. It's a pleasant surprise how fast this unit is able to read all my music on the micro sd card. I've seen demos of competitor mp3 players lagging upon reading external card contents; not the idooz. The user interface makes it very easy to access too, once your in the music mode you simply hit the 'M' button on the side of the device and navigate to the card folder which is literally two clicks down. Another neat creature comfort is that this player's software remembers where you left off even if the music file is stored on your external micro sd. To be honest for something this cheap I didn't expect it to do this, most of the other players on the market will not take you back to your original music file especially if stored on the external card. The sound quality is identical to the 192kbps on my computer with the same earbuds and is able to get quite loud if you turn up the volume to max. Another nice feature is the quick track fade out when you toggle to the next song, there is no abrupt jarring stop. There are several preset equalizers stored but the stock setting is fine for the rock music I listen to. Ok, now that all the satisfactory things are out the way it is important to mention this device's faults. The rubberized coating sucks, it stinks up my fingers and collects oils from my skin littering the player with fingerprints. I would advise users to be careful not to get excessive sweat between the small spaces (buttons/card slot). This little thing is a little flimsy if you have big fingers and will log unwarranted hard button pressing on the navigation ring. You'll have to get used to precise pushing with medium to light force. Also, when navigating the menu left and right buttons (on the button ring) are used for toggling up and down through menu features. The plus and minus are exclusively used for volume control, so you'll have to get adjusted to this. I found myself trying to use the plus and minus to move up and down but had to keep reminding myself the left and right buttons complete these actions. My last gripe is how difficult it is to insert/remove the micro sd. I had to utilize a skinny pen cap to push the card into the internal locking mechanism to seat it. The external card needs to be pushed beyond the player's body deep into the slot before it locks in place; it sits recessed once seated. These issues don't really have a personal negative impact on the overall functionality of the idooz but it may make or break the experience for you so be mindful. Also, I don't think this player would be to forgiving if you consistently drop it so make sure you have it stashed deep in your pocket when doing physical activities. I'll update this review over the course of the next 6 months if anything changes. I honestly don't expect this player to last longer than 2 years. I know, it's sad that we've come to expect cheap devices like this to be disposable but for the cost I wouldn't mind buying another one for $25 (after 24 months of daily use). It's worth the cost/risk if you're on the fence.

While the price and design are both excellent, for the sound quality, the navigation leaves something to be desired. It was easy enough to use Windows Music Player to copy my music onto the player, but the functionality wound up being a real hassle. It turns out that the "random play" feature on the player can only randomize songs within a single folder. And since all of my music is stored by artist, it only randomized a few songs at a time, and not my whole 300+ songlist. In the end, I wound up having to move all my mp3s to a single folder on the player called "music." So it worked, but not by design. Otherwise, it seems to be a decent player with good sound.

This is a great lill music device. about the size of a bic lighter or larger thumb drive, Its like a USB Storage thumb drive, butt with its own battery with a AUX output for headphones or cord. With all the functions of a typical MP3 player. and a tiny screen. And or the option too use the USB hid under the end cap- to send/receive media data. I grew up with CD's, and remember a few of the first MP3 players. And this is like those simple mp3 players, but has the built in USB- too plug into anything for data, and or charge. No need too carry a charger.. Just this and headphones. My brother has been using it non stop for about a month now. The screen cracked first week, while he had it in his pocket lifting logs at work. And the end cap cover can get lost real easy, But the darn thing is still working. The sound seems too be just as good as anything. Either threw usb port, or aux output seems too put out clear sound either way.. With a fleet of different vehicles, Its nice too have the option of a USB, OR a AUX output.. No Bluetooth, but that's what the phone is for if I want it.. This is nice, just plug and play. Somethin too hold a few hundred songs, or more, with both usb or aux output. great for older vehicles, aftermarket head units, or on the go with headphones.. The usb port soon as its connected is charging and starting too play. Then when you want it w/ your headphones just pull it out plug in the headphones and off you go. just dont forget the end cap cover. seems too last a good amount of time. I always see him wearing it when on the move or working for a few hours strait. Seems too hold a good amount of data. If you want a little device too carry around some tunes' on, with a USB and a headphone output, or too send sound into a vehicle or media system, this things great.

I bought this for the purpose of serving to replace the $50 iPod Shuffles I used to buy so I could listen to music or audiobooks during work or long walks. In my case I needed it to work on Linux. PROS: - Built-in USB for plug-n-play charging and loading/unloading of songs works just as intended. - Nice matte black, decent weight, doesn't look or feel like cheap garbage. - Good amount of default space, can easily hold over 500 songs. - Works on Linux without any additional drivers. - Cheaper than an iPod Shuffle used to be. - Long battery life. CONS: - Battery indicator seems to go from 75% to 0%, so you don't really know how little charge it has. - Deleting individual songs requires too much tinkering with the menus to be practical. - All songs "fade in" when you skip, with no option to turn it off. - Headphone port takes a bit too much force plug in to. - WORST OF ALL; the skip buttons can take several clicks to register a button press. It takes 1 click minimum to wake up the screen, and often 1-5 more just to skip to the next song. This is exacerbated by the Skip Forward and Skip Backward buttons sharing a plastic mold with the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons, sometimes clicking Skip will register as a Volume Up/Down press, which opens the Volume slider menu and this doesn't go away until it stops registering any inputs for several seconds. So if this is in your pocket, you might click the Skip Forward button a dozen times and the song still won't change because it's stuck on the Volume screen waiting for you to give up. Super infuriating design. - The only feature I wish this had was universal volume normalization, so quiet songs were as loud as loud songs and vice versa. The volume normalization it does have only normalizes the volume of each song individually, not relative to the volume of your other songs. UPDATE: Well it's 2 years later and it's finally died on me. I wish I had purchased something else because the amount of my life that I've wasted fumbling to get it to skip a song, pressing it as much as 7 TIMES before it registers a skip, or the amount of time I've had to pull it out of my pocket to manually leave the Volume screen because it registered a "skip" right press as a "volume" up or down press is infuriating and totally unforgivable. Do not buy this product.

not the most intuitive, has web browser capabilities!!?? Works ok, has a FM ranges as well. Recordings? Has that. I wanted just a simple offline MP3 player. May be connected to IOT databases, insecure? But it works. Personally I wouldn't buy again. if you don't care about all that, it works decent for $30. Button presses are easy to register as something else, so be careful and read instructions.

The ui design isn't quite as usable as a walkman NWZ but its really close and has a ton more storage. really good value, nice looking low res screen, solid feeling construction, usb fits well into computer, nice sound quality, really easy to use, very light, nice texture of plastic. only gripes are the folder structure not being sorted, not being able to return to place in folder after playing a song, and the 3.5mm jack being a bit tight. I really want to see an updated version of this, its a really nice player. It's not the best thing ive ever used but there just arent that many similar players on the market from what I can tell and this is the best one as of right now i think

good product

Very good

Perfeito em tudo.Som de qualidade superior a um sony 183f.Desnecessario falar das outras caracteristicas.O leitor de mp3,wav da Idoooz é sem duvida superior em muito, a outros modelos(inclusive usados)por ai...! Gostei muito...!!!

Perfect! I like to have mine in my pocket when exercising or playing in the garden. Previous one... was a clip on which i found was a pain... when in my pocket... it was too sensitive and would change songs or shut off during movement.

Mashallah i love it as helps me to have my Quran Mp3 at any time and the battery is super dope thanks.

Eu não sei o que seria de mim sem esse MP3. Eu odeio levar celular para correr ou academia, tive um Sony walkman que durou 3 meses e tive que devolver, esse aparelho é emborrachado, não pega suor, volume alto, alta duração da carga. Ele, no entanto, tem pequenos míseros pontos negativos: Você não consegue criar pasta de músicas, mesmo que você o faça, ele junta todas as músicas num só lugar, você só consegue essa façanha dentro do próprio aparelho, o que é bem chato de fazer. No mais, ele vale cada centavo.
