This product is very solid for the price! Easy to download music too and easy to use. I like this model because it has better use buttons. Older models had trouble with buttons sticking. Solid choice for this price! Easy to operate and understand. Only drawback is I am a heavy user and wear them out fairly quickly but for the money I simply keep a spare on hand! Can't beat this product for the low price!

i read others reviews and took a chance on this item. i'm not disappointed at all. this player works just great for me, although you must follow the instructions close. the only problem i have is when my cat chewed on the usb cable and i now have to hold my mouth just right.
my wife also has a coby (a higher grade) but she has no problems with hers.
feel safe with this item and enjoy..

I bought this, this because I really didn't need an mp3 player since I listen to the radio in the morning and late afternoons but the price was right. I lie to you not, I have to put a new battery in this thing everyday if not every 1.5 days. The cost adds up to the same as a an ipod after battery costs. If you don't listen to your mp3 player everyday then this is the player for you.

As with all Coby items, this one was a total piece of junk. The sound was great. It recorded great off the radio, but after using it for a total of TWO days it stopped working.

Coby has great looking and sounding products, but they hardly last longer than it takes to take out of the box. This isn't the only Coby item that I have bought, but it will be the last.

Spend the extra $20 or so for a Phillip or RCA because this (as with all of Coby stuff) is a waste of money.

This is third review of a Coby product that I have put online. I was given this product as gift from a family member. It acted erratic from the start. I did manage to get it accept a few songs but after a few days wouldn't come on. I changed the battery and connected to my computer to give it another go. I couldn't get it to turn on at all. I connected it to my computer and and the computer said it didn't recognize the device. After a few minutes I noticed a strange smell. It was burnt electronics smell coming out of the top of the unit. I disconnected the USB cord and it was hot. I think the unit is fried and I barely got to use it.

This one was a gift and I purchased a COBY mp3 player on my own a year before this one and it was messed up from the start. Don't say I didn't warn you, stay away from this brand name, every product I have gotten from them has been a waste of plastic, energy, electronics, and your money.
