    I bought this for my nine year old for her birthday. She loves it. It's easy to use, stylish, and holds all the music she wants. We are NOT fans of apple, so this is a great alternative to that! No messing with iTunes or anything of the sort.

    I give this 4 stars only because of the stock earduds, throw them away and purchase the form fitted Sony ear buds, anything in the $30 range. Once you replace the ear buds I would rate at 5. Great sound and battery life, it will not dissapoint.

    I needed an inexpensive MP3 player to hook up to my phone system at work for "hold music." The requirement is that is had to stay on continually and be able to be plugged into an outlet. A lot of the cheaper models could not play music and "charge" or be plugged in at the same time, but this model could! Looks good, works great. I would recommend if you're not looking for an iPod.

    I like this okay, but it could be better. I do think it is pretty easy to use, but not as easy to control as it could be. Still like it a lot since I feel it was well worth the sale price paid.

    Bought the open box. Wasn't happy that it wasn't cleaned by geek squad. Had 277 songs pirated on it. Exchanged it for a new one. Came in and works good for my son. Easy to put music on. Tho if you want to do it Sonys way it's not easy. No issues, think for the storage space it is priced a bit much.

    This item was purchased for my wife, who doesn't have a smartphone to store music on, she doesn't want one either. This is the 2nd one that I've purchased in 5-6 years, it works, it's easy to use and just what she wants. The sales rep was surprised that MP3's were still available and more surprised that BB still had on the shelf; I purchased the last one.
