Excellent Product
I have purchased a similar product under a different name and recently purchased this product and so far have been very impressed with this player even more than the previous version. In fact, I have used many, many different MP3 players for swimming. I swim almost two miles a day and could not get through the boring cadence without the help of music. I have found that this is the best player with all the features that are important to me. In fact, this is the only swimming MP3 player I have ever had to turn down the volume on, which is impressive. The volume is key, many players just can't be turned up loud enough to compensate for the water and this player can go very loud, which is good. Also the ability to feel the buttons (who cares about a screen when you have the player on the back of your head) to move forward/backward is fantastic. Yes, the controls and the limited options are simplistic but that is exactly what you need when your doing serious lap swimming and cannot fiddle with controls. The price is excellent on this product as well. Loading the music is simple as well, just pop it on the old PC and voila, it is a flash drive. No hassle with some stupid music file program like other asinine players. I really like the way it clips as well, you clip it to the back of your goggles. It's a small nit, but not crazy about the jack input being on the side, wish it was on top but it works fine as is. However I haven't used the ear buds at all, so can't vouch for them. But the H20 short cord ear buds really sound well combined with this excellent player. I have found that the biggest weakness for any underwater MP3 players are the ear pieces. If you are kicking against a wall when making that reverse very few ear buds can take that pressure. The H20 Surge Plus (short Cord for lap swimming) ear buds and the H2O X1's are excellent but pricey, you can check out my reviews there. These additional ear buds are an investment but they do a great job underwater. You can also use the extension this MP3 players provides to extend short cord ear buds, if needed. I have loaded 1200 MP3 songs (192k each song), really happy it's an 8k player. My impression is that this player will play songs in alphabetical order by artist only. So if your playlist is set up that way, then you should be fine with their method but I hate hearing multiple songs by the same artist in a row and prefer mixing them up. The key feature on this product is the shuffle feature and the ability to play a set playlist in the order you want to hear them play. I use that shuffle feature when I get bored with my playlist but the other feature with this product is that it will play your playlist if you put numbers in front of the name or tags. I use a couple of simple free Windows programs called Rename ( a simple app) or Mp3tag (this is a more complex app, but much more flexible if you learn it) that will automatically add numbers to the name of songs I want to hear, in whatever numerical order I want them to play and this player will play them in that order. It also will pick up from that last song the was played previously the next time you turn on the player. (It's a simple feature, but actually have had players that go back to the first song in the list after the player was turned off.) Also some helpful tips on using waterproof ear buds: 1. Start with the larger ear bud rubber ends first then work your way down to the smaller sizes if that doesn't fit. If you use the larger sizes, you get a tighter barrier against the water. 2. Some people use vaseline (yuck, can you imagine putting that in your ear) or wetting the ear buds lightly in the water before you place them in your ear, they think it secures them in the ear better. But I disagree and I have found the best way to keep them in your ear is to use ear swabs and briefly wipe your ear where the buds go (outside of you ear canal, not the inside). That way you're wiping the oil off you ear and my buds stay in completely during the swim. This is important because if the buds become loose you will get water behind them and you will be hosed for the rest of the swim. However the volume is loud to overcome that with this player, just need to remove the water reset the bud in your ear. 3. When you insert them in your ear pull back the top of your ear with your opposite hand, that will stretch it and allow the ear canal to gently wrap snugly around the ear bud. 4. If you use the Tennmak foam ear buds I mention below, you don't have to do any of this above. It is rare when the water enters the ear canal if you take these three steps or get foam buds and you can enjoy the music much better. Hope this helps been buying all sorts of waterproof MP3 for years since they first came out and believe me, went through the gamut on these and read many dumb reviews. I hope this sheds lights on swimming with music, which I really enjoy and helps you avoid the learning curve I had to go through. Happy swimming! Updated 01/23 I now also use the Tennmak 12pcs Ultra Strong Earphone Memory foam ear tips or any similar products in place of the rubber ones that come with any buds. Just make sure whatever bud tips you purchase sit tight on the ear bud knob so no water gets in. I tried the Tennmak and found that the foam tips expand when you are in the water and provide a much better barrier against water getting inside your ear behind the earbud and ruining the sound. You do need to replace the foam tips since they degrade over time a but you get about 12 for 8 dollars so cheap enough and provides a strong barrier. I also swim a great deal of laps each time so this advice is for those swimmers that do a lot of laps and push against the wall, that's a lot of pressure for ear buds to take. Casual swimmers will be fine with standard earbuds. I highly recommend the Tennmak ear buds with foam tips combined with the Sewobye Waterproof MP3 Player and the H20 short cord ear buds an outstanding musical swimming experience.

Good product and service
I swim every day. To keep me company in the water, I have used for a long time a bone conduction waterproof headphone. But it is not perfect. Bubbles from breathing and water movement around your ears make the enjoyment of good music or spoken word difficult. You also have to plug your ears very well or quality of sound will be even worse. The design of this product offers a good solution to both problems. Sound quality is GOOD, not so affected by the water, and the earphones PLUG already your ears. I mount the player on my goggles strap, behind my head and I am ready to go. 8GB are enough for a lot of songs or books. I was afraid that the hole for the jack of the headphones would eventually doom the water tightness of the player but I have had it for a while and it is still working flawlessly. I can see how it is well engineered in all aspects, hw, controls,, manual, instructional video. Even if it is recommended to put 48 hours of drying time between pool sessions, I use it every day with no issue. I just follow strictly the drying instruction and let the player and heaphone be in open air the entire time I am not using it. Also: I have interacted by email with Jenny at Customer Support. She was prompt and professional in handling my initial issues with one channel of the sound randomly going off. Kudos to Sewobye for this too. The only improvement I can think of is to have some way to wrap excess headphone wire to the body of the player. The picture shows how I do it now. This is a positive review triggered by a good product and no other incentive of any kind. I usually only write negative reviews as they are also the only ones I read before buying things.

Awesome MP3 player / Awful earbuds
Update 10/12/2022 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I bought this device about 3 years ago. I used it a couple of times back then and forgot about it. Fast-forward 3 years, i moved to a new area where i am able to swim pretty much every day so i decided to give it a go one more time. To my surprise everything worked as new. I am using it 3 times a week for about 45 min and i have no major complains. I always thought the flimsy cables wouldn't last, but they did and so far they are doing their job. It is, by no means, perfect but it does a pretty good job and for a reasonable price. I haven't seen an updated model. It's a shame. After 3 years i am sure they can make some nice improvements. Anyway...If you look for an affordable and compact mp3 player that you can use while swimming, look no further. ---------------------------------------------- 2019 Review ⭐⭐⭐ Simple little device that you won't notice at all during your swimming session. Almost perfect. To transfer files, just plug it in with the USB cable already provided and Windows will detect the device with no issues (I haven't tried with other OS). Then just open the mp3 player on your computer (like any other USB or external hard drive) and copy the files you want in it. That's all you need to do. If it was just the mp3 I would have giving it 5 stars BUT because of the earbuds I can't do that. The sound is fine and loud enough. I couldn't hear anything around me, and the pool was full of people, so they keep noise away pretty good. They are also fairly comfortable. They come with different sizes and they stay in place. (I was wearing a swimming cap, which also helps) BUT, half way through my fisrt swimming session, one of the earbuds stopped working. 🤷🏻♂️ Maybe I got defective ones, maybe it was the water...I don't know. When I got home a couple hours later, it was working again but it wasn't as loud as the other one. Either way the same thing happen to me before with other earbuds like these and eventually I know they will die on me. What I mean with "like these" is that the conexión between the cable and the actual earbud is made with firm plastic, not rubber. Offering barely any "protection" since it won't move with the cable. If you see the pictures you can see what I am talking about. In one of them you can see the earbuds that came with this mp3 and in the other one some Sony earbuds I have, with a longer rubber part that helps protec the connection since it will follow the movement of the cable, relieving some of the pressure from the connectors inside the earbud, everytime the cable moves. I am not an expert but I have bought enough earbuds over the years to know the ones that came with this mp3 won't last long. The battery it's perfectly fine. Just for testing they have been on, playing music for the past 9 hours continuously and there is no indication that the battery is low whatsoever. That's maybe another thing they could add. Some type of battery indication that alerts you about the porcentaje of the battery left, not just when it's about to die. I still have time to try these a couple more weeks, before I decide if I should return them or not. I will edit my review according to whatever happens.

I ordered and used this product for about 6 months. It was amazing as a waterproof MP3 player which I used extensively when swimming. The battery lasted ages and ages (about 10 hours) and the sound quality was superb underwater and when used in the gym. It was easy to put music on and take music off as it connect via a USB cable and just shows up as another drive - so it's easy to move mp3 files onto it or take mp3 files off of it. Ity has a normal mode and a shuffle mode and it's very easy to skip tracks or go backwards or even fast forward or rewind within a track Unfortunately, for some known reason it developed a fault and stopped being recognised by the computer after 6 months. I do not mark it down for this (see why next) because any one item of a product can have a latent fault and I guess I was just unlucky. I have not heard of anyone else with this product having this fault. However, I contacted the seller via Amazon and asked them to fix it under the 1 year warranty it comes with. In amazing service, they just sent me a working replacment by return of post!!! That is what I call service! I have been very impressed with the product and very impressed with the service from the seller. 5 stars all round. The music quality underwater is really really good. I usually download about 300 songs and put them on shuffle so I have a random order playing. I'm really happy with this product and with the seller (who actually cares about customers, based on my experience) and would definitely recommend this clever little device and this seller. I love this product.

Ich habe länger nach einer Option zum Musik/Hörbuch hören beim schwimmen gesucht, denn Bahnen ziehen kann auf Dauer auch etwas langweilig werden. Leider konnte meine Fitness Uhr durch den Bluetooth Verlust unter Wasser nicht aushelfen und auch ein Handy hätte keine ausreichende Reichweite. Daher blieb nur ein mp3 player. Ich muss sagen, dass mich dieses Model bisher sehr überzeugt hat. Er ist nun mehrere Monate im Einsatz. Er ist einfach zu bedienen und sehr klein und leicht. Man kann ihn super auch an dünne Träger an der Schulter anbringen und das Kabel hinten im Nacken verlaufen lassen. Es werden verschiedene ohrstöpsel mitgeliefert sodass man auch mal unter Wasser tauchen kann. Dadurch wird der Sound sogar besser. Ab und zu muss mann die Stöpsel nochmal neu ins Ohr machen weil sie natürlich durch Wasser nicht mehr so fest sitzen. Mit einer Badekappe könnte man hier denke ich abhelfen. Ich befestige aber das Kabel einfach mit einer Haarklemme hinter jedem Ohr um ein rausziehen zu vermeiden. Ich schwimme immer abwechselnd eine Bahn Brust und danach Rücken (komme dabei natürlich unter Wasser) und es funktioniert sehr gut. Werde immer sehr seltsam angesehen da ein wasserdichter mp3 player wohl ein ungewohnter Anblick im Schwimmbad ist. Ob der Sound für Musik sehr gut ist kann ich nicht sagen, ich höre nur Hörbücher und dafür ist es super. Da kann ich die Zeit gleich doppelt nutzen wenn keiner zum unterhalten da ist. Zudem hält der Akku wirklich lange. 10 Stunden hält er locker durch. Dann habe ich ihn nur zur Sicherheit mal geladen damit er nicht beim schwimmen ausgeht. Tolles Produkt!
