Review of the Riptunes 2GB MP3 Player- Red

The Riptunes 2gb MP3 Player - Red, is an honest mp3 player click if you can't afford something higher. It is a deep burgundy pink in color, and it's coated with something that is sort of rubbery. It appears like a cellular phone, and it is fashionable. The buttons on the entrance are a pause/play button right within the middle, an "M" to the side of that, and buttons that go ahead or back. It has a chargeable battery, claims to have video playback, has FM radio, and supports pictures.

The battery life nevertheless, is ridiculously brief. I actually have charged it for a couple of hours to have it not even last that long. The directions say to not charge for greater than three hours, in any other case it will cause battery injury. I actually have never seen an mp3 participant that may be damaged by leaving plugged in to the computer for too long, and that is sort of strange. Now I all the time fear that I'm going to forget about it and leave it in all night or something. The battery is very inconvenient.

It is not particularly simple to use, as the buttons are not at all self explanatory. I still don't know how to do some issues, or if I can do some things, although I've learn through everything that got here with it. Getting it to show off is an enormous problem, typically it really works and typically it does not. It looks as if it has to wake up when you press a button, so try urgent it more than as soon as if it does not work the first time. It could be confusing, and I wouldn't advocate it to individuals who aren't very technologically savvy. If you are looking for something easy and straightforward to use, look elsewhere.

The FM radio though is pretty good, not many other mp3 players at this price range come with one. It is the primary mp3 participant I have owned that has the radio built in, and it's fairly nifty. However, presetting the channels you wish to take heed to is nearly impossible, and if you want to listen to the radio you'll be clicking through each frequency before you get to the channel you need.

The sound high quality is okay, and it will get fairly loud. It permits play lists, and organizes your music by artist and album, which for the value is a darn good feature. This mp3 costs thirty 4 dollars at Toys "R" Us, nonetheless I obtained it on sale for about twenty five. For the money, it is a decent mp3 player. Also, it has an e-book reader, which is a characteristic I haven't seen on an mp3 player earlier than, but it may come in useful someday. There are actually way higher issues out there, however when you're in search of one thing that's cheap and works, this is it.
