best mp3 player

[PAULRYAN52]

hi im thinking of getting a new mp3 player, i currently have a creative zen touch 20gb, i would prefer touch screen if possible, budget £150-200

 

[PAULRYAN52]

i like the ipod touch but whats sound like

 

[PAULRYAN52]

^ actually I was surprised recently, GMP3 said :

Think I'll be getting a P2!

hi where did you get the pic from

 

[PAULRYAN52]

Will be getting getting it the end of the month so whats the best out now

 

[PAULRYAN52]

i like the look of the samsung p2

 

[PAULRYAN52]

I'd recommend the 2nd gen 80gb Zune, the sound quality is great, the interface is good and I quite like the software as well.

I can't vouch for the phones though, as I use my triple.fi's with them and although there's no eq, the sound is very good indeed.

how much is it

 

[PAULRYAN52]

You can get it for £154 delivered mate.

thanks

microsoft zune 80gb

samsung p2 16gb

samsung p2 16gb

anyone

 

[PAULRYAN52]

Neither! Lol.

I wouldnt be biased because of my NWZ-A829 at all.

Truly though, the Sony flash drives have been very highly rated, and they come out on top in terms of the Sound quality above all else, and the fact that Sonicstage is no more, has bluetooth funcionality built-in & that it is now in a 16gb version, it cant really be beaten in my eyes

abit more than my budget unfortunately

 

[PAULRYAN52]

but the 829's around the same price as the P2 16gb

when i first found a site selling it it was £239 but i just found it cheaper

 

[PAULRYAN52]

im stuck between these three

sony NWZ-829
cowon d2
samsung p2

 

[PAULRYAN52]

i like the idea of a touch screen, im not a samsung fan really so probably wont get that, so its sony v cowon, cowon is ment to have very good sound and it has touch screen, sony make good mp3 players and ment to sound good aswell so im really stuck

 

[PAULRYAN52]

Go with sony these days - well made and most importantly they sound "right"... another plus you get high end earphones with them so better value in the long run.

I have a decent pair of headphones so not worried about supplied phones

 

[PAULRYAN52]

ok i think im goin sony thanks all for your suggestions

 

[PAULRYAN52]

bear in mind the sony has no bookmarking or on-the-fly playlist creating functionality
That was what put me off it really and i ended up with a D2

all i want to be able to is shuffle my tracks so itll play any song
