Samsung P2 8 GB Touchscreen Bluetooth MP3 Player

Samsung P2 Touchscreen MP3 Player

This is a truly nice product from Samsung. The player is relatively sleek, with nice rounded edges, a decent weight, and sharp piano black gloss finish. The sound quality is excellent.

This Touchscreen MP3 Player is also beautiful. I prefer tactile use, so I’m more of a fan of buttons than touchscreens, but Samsung has done a nice job executing this one.

Also, in the default menu setting, you make circular gestures on the touchscreen to advance through the menu. Neat? Functional?

The audio player functions are top nick. It synced playlists completely, and did a great job distinguishing albums when I copied them directly like a mass storage device. There are preset visualizations including a couple of light shows (that do not track the music), album art, track info, and a spectrum analyzer.

The video player is pretty good also, but I don’t actually like watching video on such a small screen anyway. I’m not a big fan of the fact that you have to convert through Samsung’s software to get it to run, but I guess that’s the case with most MP3/video players. The widescreen playback is properly formated. FM reception is satisfactory. Bluetooth is a great feature if you’ve got bluetooth headsets, speakers, or car radio. A major disadvantage for me is the fact that it is primarily touchscreen-only (there are hard buttons on the side: on the left a lock button and a play/pause/power button; on the right, two volume buttons).

Samsung has made some big step with their feature packed MP3 players. And while this one was almost perfect for me, it fell short of the mark only in the somewhat high price tag and the lack of hard skip buttons.

Customer review:

“This unit has a very large screen and it is very easy to see the video. I have a One Click YouTube downloader. Then I use the free software from CNET to convert it to the Media Players file extention. Then plug the Player into the computer and move the files over.

I do not see how it can be any easier. There are lots of music videos on the internet ready to download. Even the expensive media players you have to covert to their format. In fact they can be more difficult to use because of copy protection that you do not run into on these units.

If you want to download the music videos for free, then this is the one to get. It is like having a little TV in your pocket. Whatever is on TV can be recorded and played on your media player. Esp with the clear crisp digital image they have now. Just get a video capture card and your ready to go.

Get some LG speakers and you can share your music with your friends and even look on the screen to see who is making the music. Plug them in at night and your ready to go the next day. Be sure to back up your files, because you never know when you will have to reformat & reload your computer or player.

The small screen players are nice also. But this is a great deal with the large screen and the easy to use touch buttons.
