Hi all,

This is my first time buying an mp3 player so i need a recommendation. My budget is ~rm200-250 and from what i've read from this thread, the better choice for my limited budget and decent sound quality would be Creative products?

I'm looking for a 1-2GB storage player, continuous playtime at least 4-6 hours, rechargable. User interface does not matter much, as long as i can scroll through and select which songs to play.

Are there any specific model(s) recommended from Creative? Or are there better choices from other brands?

Thanks.

I have a question about the bitrate and playback time. Is it possible to estimate the playback time via ratio for higher bitrate files? i.e: is 128 gives 12hr playback , will ~250 gives 6hr?

I bought a Samsung YP-U2 and i must say i am really satisfied with it. Sound quality is good even at low volumes ( for normal people like me, don't know about audiophiles heh). In fact, i even think it's clarity is better than my mobo's onboard realtek.

Playback hours stated is 15h, so far i played around 4 hours continously, and it only ate 1 bar from the battery life.

Hi all,

Planning to get either a Sansa Clip+ or Fuze but still undecided.

Read both offer same sound quality. But for a minor price difference, (~RM30-40?) the Fuze has an additional 9hours of battery.

Need some opinions from fellow users here:
i) is the wheel on the Fuze durable?
ii) How long is the battery life of both models (from your use experience)?
