Dies After a Short Use

Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2022

Verified Purchase

My company truck had a jack for an external MP-3 player and I was looking for something inexpensive. The unit was easy to program, but stopped working after only a few uses. It was quite frustrating, and in the end the only satisfaction I received from the unit was the distinctive crunch as I drove over it. Bought a Sandisk player for a few dollars more, and it is heads and tails better than this Craig POS...

Great basic MP3 player, generous storage, durable.

I needed a basic MP3 player to continue to enjoy my music collection. This is my third copy of this model in over ten years and they take a lot of abuse! Very happy with the performance.

Runs forever on a cheap AAA battery. I got the adapter to jack it into a stereo. USB port interfaces seamlessly with windows systems.

No instructions of course. Just toggle the select button on top to scroll through the default menu, push it down to select, then press the play button on the front and it's off and running.

PRETTY NICE:
Yes the Girlfriend - kinda - heckled me into buying this, As she said:
"Why dont you break down and buy something for yourself!".
Well I kinda smiled at that one, But feeling the need to relax a bit more, And I love music I started looking about, Now I really liked COBY players but like many good things they are 'No Longer' made.
And honestly the cheap players arent worth taking home, But i saw this one and liked it for the price was right, It plays good, And the Ear Buds are kinda neat also.
So now the player is a part of my daily exercise routine, And in fact a very enjoyable part!.
But dont take my word about it , Just buy one and see for yourself as this is a neat way to quietly enjoy some favorite tunes in your spare time!.

Well, it's functional, but...

Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2012

Verified Purchase

On the plus side, it does work, and it doesn't need a separate USB cable. That's a nice feature. Also, I like the fact that is uses a standard AAA battery, so I don't need to keep finding a place a way to charge it when I'm not at home - just pop in another battery and keep going.

However, on the negative side:

1. The display has uneven lighting. The left side is hard to read because it's much darker than the right side.

2. The fast forward/rewind/select switch has a habit of binding if you don't press it exactly straight down to use the select function. A couple of times it jammed on me.

3. Fast forward and rewind speeds are slow, and there is no audio during fast forward and rewind.

4. Although it has various "repeat" modes, it doesn't allow you to play just one file and automatically stop, unless that file is in a folder by itself.

The bottom line is that it's functional, but lacking in convenience. I would say that it's worth the price, especially if you use it as a 4GB memory stick. But I couldn't recommend it as a primary MP3 player.

After full charge, I filled it with mp3 music, would not play. thought the volume was too low, but when i increased volume to max, notice came up that it was out of memory.

Worked with it half hour at least, never would play music.

I use my MP3 players primarily when I run or am at the gym, and also when I am on a plane. So I definitely use the heck out of them, and don't see the real reason to spend hundreds on an ipod or try to use my bulky iphone for this function - why risk breaking them? Never understood that. Anyhow - I used to have a SanDisk that lasted about 6 years before it died and tried to replace it with a Sylvania that refused to hold a charge. My second replacement was this unit and I couldn't be happier. Runs on a AAA battery which lasts a long time with this unit, great lighted display, and easy to use. USB connection is built into the unit so no cable needed. Sound is great too - plenty of volume (you'll never use the highest settings). For $15- $20 bucks it's a no brainer - am going to pick up some more of these as gifts for some of my family.

DON'T purchase this product. Everytime I have purchased one (and I have purchased several for my job) they either malfunction shortly after opening them- within the first day-or they never operate correctly at all. If you buy this product you are throwing your money away!

Does not work 🙁

Reviewed in Canada on January 6, 2021

Verified Purchase

I guess I got a lemon. I just wanted something simple, that runs on batteries for ease of use, to listen to music sometimes. This device loaded the songs ok, then I disconnected it from the laptop. Now it just says “loading”. It’s been like that for over an hour. It won’t let me turn it off. I tried taking out the battery and putting it back in,...still says loading. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I read the reviews and I guess some people get ones that work some of the time? I guess if you want to gamble $35, and roll the dice? Mine is worthless.
