Can we give this guy an award for best product description?

They should hire you at Apple or something. Skip all this nonsense and get down to the point:

"The new iPhone 7. It does like phone calls n messaging n apps n stuff"

Sound surprisingly excellent, headphones not bad at all for price (I use my Senheissers though), battery life not great but not bad either (drinks the juice for FF and Rew though, disproportionatly.) get a 32gb micro - cheap enough and plenty plenty room for what you need

heat given for the to the point description alone.

Mine was better - hotukdeals.com/dea…594

Excellent player. Lot of folk put Rockbox firmware on it to enhance options but even as standard it's a smashing piece of kit

had mine for 3 yrs no problemns what so ever great player highly reccomend

Great player...........

Ah but yours was missing the yolo swag talk of today's youths.

To be fair, there is not a lot more to add. Aside from maybe, get some decent earphones of your own. Had mine for 4 or 5 yrs and it is great.

Cold. This is old technology, and I remember paying not too much money for the same player 5 years ago. Doesn't deserve any more than a £9.99 price tag.

Got one recently. Great wee player. Well worth this price

So what if it's old? In terms of sound quality and loudness it's the best mp3 player out there. I've owned several over the years and, while reliability isn't brilliant, for sound quality there's nothing come out in recent years that's anywhere near as good for this price point.

just a heads up on this If the volume is low and cant turn up further change the region to rest of world as its limited in the UK

So you've confirmed it likes music, so whats the other 'stuff' it likes?












‌ :stuck_out_tongue: heat

Hot, had mine for about 7 years. Ideal to take to the beach by the pool etc. Sound is great, forever leaving it on sun loungers and not had the worry about someone pinching it.

Accidentally smashed the screen on mine, thanks for the replacement!

Sadly I have had nothing but problems with mine crashing, dying. Think I'm on my third ...I wonder if it just dosen't like running?

I could flame you up here.......

Great find, just bought it. Many thanks.

there you are 500 flamed up. love me tender xxx

I've had two of these, first one broke (after loads of use) and second one I have put somewhere safe and can't find :disappointed: They are quite small so losing and mislaying them is a constant problem.

Fantastic product with extremely good sound, better than your phone or whatever. My only criticism is that it's been around for years now and really ought to be less than 24.99 for the 8GB.

I bought at a lower price a few year ago so not too hot price wise. However, this is the best mp3 player out there & by far the best way to enjoy music on the go! :wink:

Thanks for that. I really struggled with mine and don't bother using it. I'll try this.

I was just about to as the max Memory Size it will support, so thanks for that. I'm off to order one for use in the gym.

Not a great price, think we paid this years ago for one.

Was OK but ended up never being used as mobile phones took over with storage space etc.

Cheers, have a clipzip thats been in pieces for ages as I was going to upgrade the battery but never got round to it, so was looking for another zip but they seem to have gone or are exspensive so I ordered one of these going to rockbox it!. They sound great with some decent headphones and so portable!.

Heat added OP

Brilliant little player, only downside is that the display is so tiny for my poor old eyes.

Ideal for FLAC files. Much better DAC than most other consumer players anywhere near this price point.

Be sure to put Rockbox on.

Good battery life.

128gb mSD works fine in mine!

Sandisk still supply 'em I am 100% sure of - another point to note is that while zip and clip have been around for ages Sandisk have periodically updated the version with slight tweaks. A 5 year old zip is not exact;y the same. FLAC + microsd make this a great player!

I've had one for years, great device. i paid £14 for a refurb one and it's still going strong. Like new just without retail packaging. I think £25 is too much given the age of this device.

Just remember if you never bought one of these before when you receive it the first thing is if the volume is too low change it from european to world settings.Currently have 3 of these and very happy with them.

Had mine for over a year now. Kept it stock with a 16gb sd card. Far better than my old ipod!

Heat added... how succinct! and bought one too :smile:

hot for description

Heated!

I've had one in the car for years with Rockbox on it, it's perfect for the job set to car mode as it turns on and off with the ignition.

Good idea, I may experiment with mine. Is car mode a rockbox thing or a SanDisk thing ?
Nevermind, I just noticed you had Rockbox on yours....doh !

I had one of these for a couple of years and Rockboxed it. Excellent player and much better sound than my phone but always found it a bit fiddly to make playlists.

Still, getting a new one with a 128GB microSD is tempting.

description gets heat ! :sunglasses:

Heat added but I much prefer the Sansa Zip layer over these Clips. The larger coloured screen of the Zip makes it easier for me to navigate whilst Rockboxed and being micro USB it means my stack of chargers around the house all fit. Running the Zip with a 64GB card is superb with my music and audiobook collection.

They have been this price for quite a while now at this place. I have bought two Sansa players from them in the past and they have been excellent to deal with.

how is it with talking to itunes? i get all my podcasts through there

Another vote for the Sansa Zip with Rockbox and a 64Gb microSD - best MP3 play I've ever had.

Sadly SanDisk seem to have stopped making them :-(

I switched from one of these to an Ipod 7 Nano for when I was out running but went back to this as it is lighter and easier to clip onto my shorts. Never bothered with RockBox as it does all I need it do.

Thoroughly recommend Rockbox.The included software is weak.Put Rockbox on,and you have a really good equalizer,great bass and treble,better volume and a really good battery life.

Ha,ha.The description is like getting Karl Pilkington to endorse a product!

As I stated on the previous page I use RockBox on mine, though for balance I should say (for anyone contemplating a purchase) that the downside to it is...

It has a terrible UI.

It takes quite a lot of getting used to and can have a bit of a learning curve if you want to do a lot of 'tweaking'. Given the size of the screen, however, it's certainly passable!

£23.74 If You Add This Code Savoo5

Heated, tho I dont need another - got 3 of them. Much better than than the later models so I am sticking with the Clip+. Perfectly fine without Rockbox; does everything I need (except Rockbox does remember your sleep setting whereas you have to reset on this one each time).

Absolutely awful deal but great description

You can get the Sansa Clip+ Jam on a certain auction site for the same price. Well you could a month ago when I bought it.

Saying that, personally I think this is a better model as the power button isn't on the front and just feels better but sadly this doesn't have a micro usb socket.

The sound quality on these is astonishingly good considering the price / size, especially if you're using FLAC.

IS this mp3, bluetooth enabled?

MP3 yes, bluetooth, no.

I have had a Clip Zip for years and with Rockbox is the best portable music player I've ever used. The sound quality with FLAC files is amazing and the memory slot is a big selling point. I wish Sansa still made them.

Heat for the description. The price is outrageous, but I guess the quality of the player makes it desirable.

6 word description, 430 degrees and rising! Legend!

Other music. :face_with_monocle:

Some companies charge £25 for a damn t-shirt and here you have a fully working music player with colour display and storage for less than most people pay for a piece of rag that's been around for over 100 years now.

Cold your original post code did not work but the one i posted you does ty op or was that a no ty lol Sistuntii Avatar

Its not better than a phone.You need to install a music app like Poweramp or GoneMAD Music Player and it will play better quality music.

Amazing music quality

I got a used one of these to replace the car's ailing inbuilt player - at the time the best I could do was £23 used. The sound quality improvement - naturalness - over the car player is quite marked and I think it beats my iPhone 4 too. People say that Rockbox, while adding all sorts of features, degrades the audio quality.

Bought thanks. Heat added.

Brilliant contribution there. So, it's old tech and.....? Your point being? It's still one of the few portable media players out there with a memory slot, that you can install Rockbox onto and that has exceptional sound quality, especially with FLAC files and decent headphones.

So, as I'm in the market for something to beat this, oh font of all knowledge, can you please provide us with some alternatives?

Had 3 of these. All had problems and all not working now. Wouldn't have for free now.

So is this better then listening to FLAC files through a HTC ONE which is known for good music quality and loudness?

I think The Gadget Show on channel 5 votefd it the best small player although a few years ago.

Cracking mp3 player had one for many years, could never understand why anyone would pay more!

Love this player had it for about 5 years now, its light, amazing battery life and even if the 8GB isn't big enough you can expand the memory. One thing though my clip broke and found this link on how to repair it using small clothes peg (I put 2 on side by side). I also use an old pair of headphones from my sony mobile that has one long cable and one short so it can go behind my neck and just clipped onto my collar of whatever I'm wearing. I put Rockbox on but don't use it much just hold dowb the left buttom when turning on and the standard software loads up.

What's mymemory's delivery speed like typically?

Mine arrived this morning, purchased about the same time I posted the deal.

Mine arrived today along with a 64gb card. Installed rockbox straight away, spent an hour or so configuring for my ears / headphones. Verdict.... Superb. Easily keeps pace with players that are 10 times the price... Fiio etc. Buy one, rockbox it, spend some time setting it up, use some decent headphones. Sorted!

Really starting to regret getting this. First I bought the deal on the Sansa Clip Jam, and found that there was no way to sync ratings with my desktop. So then I decided to sell that and buy this which can be flashed with RockBox which apparently has ratings than can be exported, but once enabling Gather Info, you have to do 9-10 clicks for each song you listen to just to rate a song, and there;s no currently maintained software that seems to be able to export them anyway.
I feel like mp3 players have only gotten worse since the 3rd gen iPod Nano. If only there was a way to add more than 8GB storage to that.

Gonna have to return this, Sandisk stock and Rockbox are just awful UIs.

Do you guys know if this code still works? Cause it seems like it's not working

I have 3 of these, the clip, clip + and clip zip. The zip has a bigger colour screen and should be only a few pounds more. One of them went through the wash and still works :). The Rockbox firmware can be flashed to these players which gives them lots more features. Heat added.

Sandisk discontinued using the chipset, so both the Clip Zip and the Clip usually sell on ebay for more than the new price.
