SanDisk 8GB Clip Jam MP3 Player, Green - microSD card slot and FM Radio - SDMX26-008G-G46G

I purchased this as I recently started bike riding again, and I needed a small, light weight device that could clip on my cycling jerseys (these have no front pockets). This fit the bill exactly and for the price, I couldn't have picked anything better. This is a simple device, it is an MP3 player, a radio tuner, it plays audio books, and it is easy to navigate. It does have an equalizer so you can adjust it to your personal taste or use any of the multiple presets. It does work with Windows 10, simply drag a file to the SanDisk location and the music or audible file downloads instantly. It has a super long battery life, and recharges quickly. I have had other SanDisk players in the past (my SansaFuse is still going strong even after 10 years) and feel they offer quality items at affordable prices. I couldn't be happier with this purchase! Highly recommended.

Bought this a a replacement to our old Sansa unit that decided to give up it's belt clip.This unit is nice and solid construction and has survived plenty of drops and bumps. File transfer is easy and the headphones sound good. Not excellent by any means; they are tiny little earbuds after all, but they're sufficient!Happy customer!

This little thing is my new BFF.Pros:It clips to anything & stays put.It has a surprising number of equalizer settings.Navigation is easy.It resumes play where I left off, and the Shuffle feature actually works right! (All my other players, when set to shuffle, would just re-start a shuffled playlist from the beginning again every time I turned the thing off & back on - this has yet to repeat like that and I use it several hours a day, almost every day).Volume keys work even when it's locked - some might find that annoying but I prefer it.Super easy to synchronize with MusicBee, or just drag & drop files in Windows Explorer.Battery life is astounding. I took it on a 3 day trip, listened to it 6+ hours every day, and I still had about 50% battery left.Cons:You can't lock it when it's powered off. So sometimes it's in my bag & bumps up against something long enough to turn on. I've started carrying it in an old Altoids tin to prevent that.Not really a pro or con but worth noting:It remembers the volume setting. In my car I crank it to the max, and I've occasionally blown out my eardrum when I forget to turn it down before putting headphones in.I haven't used the microSD card yet. 8GB has been plenty of music for me to carry around at a time. Will update review if anything changes!Edit: After 2+ years of spectacular performance, I installed the wrong firmware & bricked my device, which is super embarrassing since I'm in IT. Anyway, the replacement I purchased in 2019 has a MUCH shorter battery life. The first one I bought would last for approx 20 hours per charge. This one lasts about 8, maybe 10.I have also started using a micro-SD card, and I'm not super fond of the fact that you cannot mix playlists between the card & the device memory, but that's a minor annoyance that is easy enough to live with as long as I plan my playlists accordingly prior to syncing.

I bought this as a replacement for my old Sansa 8GB ClipSanDisk Sansa Clip+ 8 GB MP3 Player (Black), which has reached the end of its natural life.PROS:-Same sleek, lightweight design as the original Clip.-Same easy-to-use interface. Easily transfer music and podcasts with just a few clicks. No extra software required; sync music with Windows Media Player, same as before.-Only a small price increase from the Clip, so it's still worth the money.CONS-Different USB output. This might sound like nitpicking on my part, but I've been using the Clip for years and models earlier than the Clip still used the same USB output cable. I have therefore amassed about four or five of the USB cables used to charge and transfer music to the Clip. This meant that I could have one cable always in my laptop bag, one in my desk drawer just in case, and I could also leave one with my computer at work. Now, with the new Jam, all my other USB cables that I used to use for the Clip are worthless, and since I tend to easily misplace things, I dread the day when I misplace or can't find the cable for the Jam.-No music list. On the Clip, I was able to view a list of every single song I had on the device, and choose from the master list the song I wanted to hear. So for example, if I was listening to "American Idiot" by Green Day and wanted to listen to another song that started with "A," I could go back to the menu and scroll through the list to find the song I wanted. Of course, the Jam still allows you to view by artist, album, etc. but this is a pain for someone like me who has 600+ songs and podcasts, but 500 of them are all from different artists. Also, the Clip allowed you to "play all" in alphabetical order, but with the Jam, you can only listen to songs on "shuffle."-Power button is now the middle "select" button rather than a separate button. It's annoying because sometimes I'll have it in a pocket or in my bag and it will bump against something else in my bag and turn on by itself. This never happened with the Clip. And when I first got it, it took me a while to figure out how to turn it on and off.-Pain in the butt to transfer lots of music at once. When I first got the Jam, I tried copying all my songs at once onto it, which took over two hours, but then when I tried listening to the songs on the Jam, they didn't work properly. For example, the title would say it was American Idiot, but then when you actually listened to it, the first five notes of another song would just play on repeat for the entire length of the song. And this happened with all the songs on the Jam. I had to delete everything from the Jam and transfer one song at a time, which is a pain when you have over 600 files. This never happened with the Clip. Even when I transferred hundreds of files at once, it took maybe fifteen or twenty minutes tops, and the files never malfunctioned after transfer.In conclusion, this is actually a step backward from the old Clip. I feel like in this case, Sansa got rid of some features of the Clip, changed a few other things, and slapped an extra twenty bucks on the price tag. (the Clip I have right now cost me a total of $25 USD, including shipping and handling.) I still like my Jam, and I think if I use it a bit more I'll become accustomed to the differences from the Clip, but after using the Clip for such a long time, these changes just feel like a downgrade rather than an upgrade.If you've never used a Sansa model MP3 player, this is definitely a great gift to buy for someone, or even a great little MP3 player to get for yourself. If you have used a previous model, such as the Clip or the Fuze, be prepared for the differences I've stated above. It's still worth it, since it's still cheaper than a lot of other MP3 players out there on the market (plus it's still very small and lightweight, so it's great for using when you go running or whatever) but I still miss my old Clip.
