Music Storage

Customers have generally positive opinions on the SanDisk Sansa m250 MP3 Player's music storage capacity, with many praising its ability to hold a large amount of music and various file formats. Some customers also appreciate the use of replaceable AAA batteries for extended playback time. However, a small group of customers have expressed disappointment in the device's limited storage capacity and have upgraded to larger models.

However, some customers have noted that the device was originally sold without a battery and required purchasing one separately.

Quality


The built in radios also work excellent, no skimping and you can have preset channels.


The sound is clear and good, and the buds fit securely and very comfortably.


Just slap in a new battery and you are off and running.


I use to own the sandisk 1gig, then it stopped working after five years of great service for me.

Price


Definitely would recommend for anyone buying within a budget!


Unsurpassed by any other player at twice the price!


I highly recommend buying a silicon case and wouldn't pay more than $45 for this player.


Not worth what it is being offered for at this time however!

Shipping


Vendor shipped very quickly and everything was included to me get up and running quickly.


Seller was awesome and shipped it right away and answered my questions within minutes before i ordered.

This player is considered outdated, and doesn't compete with the expensive ones.


It is bulky compared to other more expensive players, especially if you want to wear it.


The m250 is the one to get with 2 gig ram (largest available) but the 1g and 512mb units are exactly the same except for color ...  Read More
