SanDisk Sansa View (8GB) price range: $139.95
- Reviewed by: Jasmine France

The good: The Sansa View digital media player is an incredible value considering its features, which include photo and video support, a microSD card slot, an FM radio, and a voice recorder. The screen is relatively large, and there's a separate podcast menu for easy sorting of such content. It works with Mac and Windows and supports WMA subscription services and Audible.
The bad: The Sansa View is large for a flash player, and the onscreen interface is somewhat uninspiring. The small center select button may present a problem for some users.
The bottom line: If you value features and price over a flashy interface and excellent sound quality, the SanDisk Sansa View digital media player is definitely worth a look. It's easy to use and offers a relatively large screen and a memory expansion option.
You may recognize the name Sansa View, but that's about all SanDisk's new video MP3 player has in common with the original View announced at CES. SanDisk essentially went back to the drawing board, which is why it's taken so long for the official View to surface. Rather than a screen-dominated PVP, you get an e200 with a sleeker design, a beefed-up screen, and a larger body. It's a smart move, since more users are inclined toward compact players than dedicated PVPs. Even smarter is the price: The 8GB View goes for just $149.99, and the 16GB for only $199.99. By comparison, the Creative Zen in 8GB and 16GB capacities goes for $199.99 and $249.99, respectively. However, it must be said: The Sansa's sound does not stack up to the Zen's.
We're a bit torn on the Sansa View's design. On the one hand, it's pretty large for a flash MP3 player (4.3 inches by 1.9 inches by 0.4 inch), but it also has an ample (2.4-inch) screen. And we're taken with the mechanical scroll wheel that sits below the screen and the nifty backlit control indicators that switch their orientation depending on whether the screen is in landscape mode (for photo and video viewing) or portrait mode (for navigation and music playback). In addition to the wheel, there's a home button that alternates between the top menu and the playback screen, and a small center select button. The size of this key may present a problem for the less dexterous, though the fact that it's slightly raised helps things. Sadly, there's no dedicated volume, and the syncing port (located on the bottom) is proprietary. On the plus side, you get a hold switch on the lower-left spine, while the lower-right edge contains a microSD card slot capable of accepting SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) cards. At the time of this writing, these went up to 8GB, meaning you could potentially have a View with up to 24GB--definitely a good thing for a video player.
Style-wise, the Sansa View definitely falls into the understated category; its shiny black face isn't unattractive, but neither is it eye-catching. The clear coat should do a reasonable job at protecting the player from scratches, but it also creates a dimming effect on the LCD, almost as if you're looking through a very fine-mesh screen. Luckily, the display gets very bright, so visibility is not really an issue. However, I should note that, although the text for all the menus is black, the lettering on the playback screen is white, which may present a problem for certain people. Along with track info (title, artist, album), this screen also displays album art and can be set to show one of the following: time elapsed/remaining, a graphic equalizer, full-screen cover art, or the song that's on deck.
Although the playback screen offers all the info you'd want, most of the Sansa View's interface is fairly uninspiring. You can set different wallpaper colors, but they all appear a bit washed out, and there's no option to set a photo as your backdrop. And although the main menu with its magnifying icons is graphically pleasing, the inner menus feature small font and a rather blah overall feel. That said, music organization is good, sorting by artist, album, and so on; and we're keen on the photo thumbnails in that respective menu. Also, we're happy to see a separate podcast sort, which allows for easy organization of that content. Another bonus: Although SanDisk's documentation calls only for Windows support, we had no trouble attaching the View to a MacBook (running only Mac OS) and transferring audio files.
In addition to standard MP3 files, the Sansa View can play back a healthy array of other digital media files. There's direct support for JPEG photos and MPEG4, WMV, and H.264 videos. This player can even take videos purchased from services such as Amazon Unboxed and TiVoToGo, and it should have no problem with video podcasts acquired through iTunes. The Sansa Media Converter, available as a download, can transcode other (unprotected) formats for View. On the audio side, you get support for WAV, AAC (unprotected), Audible, and both protected and unprotected WMA. The player will work with any Windows Media-based audio service, such as Napster or Rhapsody. If you get tired of digital audio, switch over to the onboard FM tuner, which features autoscan and 20 preset slots.
The Sansa View's tested battery life of 32.3 hours for audio is certainly formidable, and the video battery life of 5 hours should satisfy most power users--though we'd be more impressed if it matched the 7-hour rating. Audio quality isn't quite as inspiring, though this player certainly doesn't sound bad. The downside is that--other than electronica--music tends to be lacking in bass, and we get a lot of low-end distortion when we adjust to compensate via the five-band user EQ. And this is despite using test earbuds (Shure SE310s) and headphones (Ultrasone HFi-700s) that offer great low-end response. However, music in general sounds pretty good, with nice high-end clarity and warm mids. It's not as sparkly as the Sony NWZ-A810, but the average listener should be satisfied. Despite the aforementioned dimming effect of the screen, photos look sharp and bright with good color saturation. Videos, however, did suffer a bit from the dimness, and we noticed some slight pixelation at points, but they still looked passable.

I'm getting attached.
by kathrynck on December 20, 2007
Pros: memory space, expandable memory, screen size, sound quality, features, battery life
Cons: casing seam
Summary: I got mine about a week ago at circuit city They have an awesome deal, and they just lowered it even more than what I paid, IF you can find ...
Summary: I got mine about a week ago at circuit city They have an awesome deal, and they just lowered it even more than what I paid, IF you can find it in stock. Newegg oddly doesn't list this item yet, normally they are my favorite.
First off I'd like to talk about the issue raised by cnet about bass response. At default settings, it does seem to drop off at the low end. If you ran it with flat EQ, it would sound just about perfect if you ran it through a car stereo which had a 'loud' button to shift things towards the bass end a tad. However, the EQ is quite responsive and allows for some serious adjustment. The presets (classical, etc.) are very poor in my opinion, so if you really like to use pre-made eq settings you'll be disappointed. And cnet is correct that if you raise the bass bar on the custom EQ by a lot, it does run into some distortion. However, this is true of any audio product which is being pushed for more bass than its amplifier can give.
Many people however, forget that only raising the EQ bars above the baseline increases the sound output at a given volume setting. And the sansa's EQ is extremely sensitive & responsive. Its very easy to overdo it. To improve sound quality without elevating the sound output above designed maximums, the bars should be moved both above and below the baseline, in roughly equal amounts. I have mine set at about 1/4 up from flat in bass & treble, default in mid-bass & mid-treble, and 1/3 of the way *down* in midtone. It sounds very good with no distortion.
Also, I have some mp3's which are badly encoded and have horrible sounding treble normally, but they sound surprisingly good on this player. End result, the sansa can make great sound, but it does take some tweaking to get it just right. I would agree that good bass response shouldn't be tucked away with tweaked settings at the limit of the player's ability though. It may have something to do with how it interprets the mp3's, since I have a few mp3's which have awesome sounding deep bass at flat EQ settings. Which suggests the hardware isn't at fault. I didn't update the firmware yet since its just released. I think a well designed firmware adjustment by sansa could make good bass something you don't have to tweak to get.
Syncing in WMP10 is a breeze. I haven't figured out how to simply drag&drop songs onto it yet, it doesn't seem to recognize as a usb mass storage device (my old mp3 player did, which kinda obsoleted usb flashdrives for me).
Menu's... The uppermost menu is nice, works well, and is fun to use. But all the submenus are rather plain. This alone is no big deal, it has a LOT of features in the menus, and its a media player, not a menu showcase. I did however find some of the menus a little counterintuitive to navigate during playback. Its just a matter of time before learning them inside out, but its nice when a device has a more naturally intuitive layout. It would be really neat if someone would code a new skin for the menu system for this thing. But it works fine.
Battery life... being used to using the cdplayer in my car since my old mp3 player died, i forgot to disconnect my sansa and take it inside the other day. 24 hours later when I left for work, it was still playing. Given that it got below freezing for most of the night, I'm really impressed with the battery life. It even continued to play through that work day, and it still had a bit of battery life left on the battery display when i took it home and finally plugged it in. in other words 'wow'.
The screen looks great. I don't notice any problems or lacking quality at all. It seems bright, great resolution, and has vibrant colors. And its 'big'. 2.4" is a pretty big screen compared to the size of the player. It is flush with the player facing, which looks very sleek, but I'd have preferred it to be recessed about 1mm to avoid scratches. The facing material does seem to be pretty scratch resistant though.
This is the largest flash-memory mp3 player i've seen. So it you want something you can clip to your nose ring and forget about, this isn't it. on the other hand, if you're looking for a portable video player, this is 'tiny'. It's still a bit smaller than most hard drive based mp3 players. While really small players do have a 'wow cool' factor, I don't really see this player as being too bulky to carry around (unless you're in a bikini and have a drink in both hands). Its about the same overall bulk as my cell phone (LG 8300, great phone by the way) but taller and flatter. its quite pocket-able, and light enough to put on an armband or some other jogging friendly spot.
The casing is slightly separated near the on/off switch. Its so slight that I would not have noticed it if I had not read a review which complained of this on another site. It doesn't have any effect on functionality and it doesn't make it feel at all lacking in durability. But I do plan on putting a little superglue on the corner of a 3x5 card and slipping that through the seam gap, then hold it tight with a padded c-clamp for about 10 min. It may be no concern, but I just don't want dust or lint getting in at all. Really I'm being quite perfectionistic about this.
The wheel feels great, works great, is great. Its pretty too, I love the blue glow ring around it. This is the wheel which the old e200 series should have been born with. The center button is small, but I haven't missed it yet. I have rather large hands, and manicured nails, so I'm not sure why anyone would have a problem using the center button. I have increased the amount of time that the controls stay illuminated. I use it in the dark a lot, so I'll leave it at least until I get to know the feel of the player more. Actually with the battery life, I'll probably just leave set longer it indefinitely.
The voice recorder is basic. Sound quality is not stellar, its about like any other pocket voice recorder. Its a neat little 'extra' that most other players don't have.
FM player is pretty good actually. Better than you'd expect without an external antenna. Lots of presets, etc.
Flash memory... For those of you who've never had a hard drive based mp3 player while jogging or driving a sports car over rough roads, you probably don't appreciate how nice flash memory is. Flash memory has no moving parts, uses very little electricity, doesn't have drive spin-up delays, and most importantly, has flawless playback even when you're shaking it. Also, hard drives in portable players tend not to hold up in the long run. Sure they may be rated to survive a drop from the moon without breaking, but the bearings do not survive routine shaking in the long run. Mine has 8Gb of memory, and a slot which can take up to another 8Gb of memory. My music collection is currently about 8Gb (the good songs anyway), so this is the perfect size right now. And as I add to my collection, it will be easy to upgrade and keep my whole music 'favorites' collection on my mp3 player.
In an ideal world, the menus would be really cool 3-D graphics all the way to the bottom layer, it would have a better sealed seam, bass response a bit better at flat EQ, and the EQ presets would be nicer. But in an ideal world it would also weigh nothing, cost nothing, and make me pancakes in the morning.
Its a really nice player. I also liked and gave some serious thought to the Zune, and the Nano. But I kept coming back to this one. It's nice enough to get sentimentally attached to it I think

Good Value for money, Good Sound
by MrRugger on December 3, 2007
Pros: Sound was good, but could just be me. Pretty good for watching videos and pics. Love the expansion slot. Easy to navigate.

Summary: I've had the View for 10 days now. The sound is very good. I have 900+ songs on it, a few music videos and still 2 gb of space left. Plus I have a 1GB MicroSD card in the expansion slot, where I keep my family pics. I am impressed by the view. I am primarily using it to pump music into my stereo system using a $10 adapter. It works great for my purposes. Also, the video is pretty good. Battery Life: My testing shows it is less than 35hrs, more like 15-16hrs with constant music searches. Right now I am testing running it till the battery can't go no more. We'll see if not touching it and using the menus helps the battery life much. Unlike the review, i don't mind the interface. I find it easy to use. Happy so far. Good value.

Poor Quality Control Could Hurt Product Reputation

Summary: Let me start of by saying that I work as a mp3 expert at a very popular electronics retail store. In my time there I have had the chance to try a huge variety of mp3 players and I decided on this one for its price and features. This is my fifth mp3 player and so far is my favorite. It has a very highly rated battery life, an FM tuner, picture and video playback, custom EQ, and several supported audio formats. Yes it is large, but don't forget that part of that size is due to that vibrant screen. The weight is nice and the sexy black finish hides scratches nicer than an iPod. The sound quality is much nicer than reviews show, and I believe that may be due to users using the headphones that come with the unit which need to go in the trash right out of the box and traded in for a nicer pair perhaps the high performance Sony earbud or even a pair of Shures if you dont mind dishing out the $100. Now that you have replaced the earbuds start off with reformating the unit on you PC this really helps to make the unit responsive to being hooked up to the computer. Not sure why but it worked for me. Really other than that the only thing that in my mind that hurts this product is poor quality control by Sandisk. But dont let this scare you away from this jem of a product.

Summary: I bought the 8gb Sansa View thinking I was getting something new and revolutionary. I was opposed to getting an Ipod, because I am a PC user. I wanted something different.
But after playing with the Sansa View for about 30 mins, I was very disappointed. The navigation buttons for photos and music are totally backwards and slow for loading photos.
Ashamed with spending money on this item, I went to Best Buy and spent the difference of my returned christmas (sansaview) present and bought the 8gb Ipod touch. After minutes after hooking up the Ipod - I was happy - and proud of my new mp3 player - (this is my first mp3 player - and I love it !!2 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: Bought this one almost a year ago now.Could have bought a I Pod with only 4GB for the same price and im glad I didnt. Sometimes the controls are slow to respond after playing a bit.Its annoying as the current song will keep playing sometimes up to a minute waiting for the player to "wake up",but its infrequent enough that its no biggie.Battery life has been good for me. Ive played it 5-6 hours straight on a few occasions with lots of scrolling/seeking different songs and the battery stayed strong.Im about to finally add more memory to it so I can fit my entire music collection on it.8GB MiniSD cards are getting pretty reasonable nowdays.
I would buy another SanDisk product.Nice price,no real issues,and I love being "anti Apple"!1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Not perfect, but very nice

Summary: There's one thing about the Sansa players that bugged me at first but as I got used to it I came to love it and it became one of my favorite things about the device - there is no actual SanDisk brand software for managing music. To get music onto the little guy you can either sync up with Windows Media Player or just drag and drop music from your computer's music folder to your Sansa's music folder, making music transfer much faster than say waiting for iTunes to start up and getting that confounded thing to recognize any new tracks as part of your library and then finally getting to transfer music onto your iPod.
Of course the music also needs to sound good when it's on your player, and while many people complain about the sound quality of the Sansa View I personally thought it was good. Comparing it to my old mp3 players, I'd say it was better than my first generation iPod mostly because of the better bass and about the same as my last Sansa.
Other features I thought were nice is the size has been slightly increased over the old Sansa e-series, especially in the way of the screen which is very clear on any brightness level. I haven't had the chance to see how movies look on it yet as I don't have the patience the transfer any onto the player yet. It did come with a video pre-loaded into memory though, and that one looked very clear.
I'm also very fond of the battery life in this little guy. I like to listen to music while I read and at night I turn the screen brightness all the way up and keep the screen lit up so the player can double as a reading light while my old iPod only lasted a night like that I've gone a few nights in a row and still haven't had to charge the player yet. I have yet to see how the battery holds out playing movies, but I can confirm that the thing plays music for a while on a single charge no matter what you do with the screen lighting.
If there's anything wrong with the player it's probably in the interface. While it's been slightly improved over the Sansa e-series in the way that some of the myriad of icons have now been placed into a single "More". However, the circle of icons that's only partially displayed on the screen still fails to be as user friendly as the simply menu employed by other mp3 players.
But honestly, once you get used to the interface it's really no big deal. With the long battery life and so many other nice features the Sansa View is a very sweet little player.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: i got this player at christmas of 07 so ive had it for about four mounths now the first the screen is very big and bright. you can see it almost in direct sunlight its also very clear but photos are a little blury. it also has all the features you would need, photo viewer, video, microphone, expandable memory, F.M. tuner and all for an unbeatable price
I dont know much about judgeing sound quality so it sounds fine to me. i will also say that the screen was not the best with pictures and videos the screen is a little blury but good for veiwing basics
There are also some bugy things about the ui. first navigating and changing settings with the scroll wheel takes some getting used to. also would have liked to see some sort of dedicated voulme.
Now onto bugs the first bugs i had with it are some green line that show up in photos it also had trouble in playingvideos when i had the option to view album art in the song lists the videos would freez up. but one good thing about bugy interfaces is that its easy to reset if it freezes just turn it on then off again and it starts right back up
overall i like this prouduct and would recomend it to any one1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Sound is great (buy 3rd party headphones), battery life is great, all my album covers show up and the thumb wheel makes navigation amazingly simple.
You can't ask for much more for the price.
As SanDisk and other manufactures come out with higher capacity microSDHC chips the capacity of this player goes up. I like that.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Best in class for the price
by chazzcaloy on December 30, 2007
Pros: Good sound, video quality, and array of features
Cons: Modest low bass response; menus and built-in wallpaper options uninspired

Summary: I bought the Sansa View on sale at Circuit City for $129.99, and I am very pleased with it. As a first-time buyer of an mp3 player, I was reluctant to pluck down a lot more money for an IPod, which at this point seem overpriced and overrated, given the other choices that are now out there.
The sound quality is quite good. I'd forgo the built-in EQ settings, which sound uninspired, and opt for the custom EQ that allows you to tailor the frequency response to your own tastes. I agree with some other criticisms that I've read online both in customer and professional reviews that lower bass response is a bit lacking. But I've found that a combination of tweaking the custom EQ settings, plus buying a better pair of earbuds that the ones provided, make up for this mild inadequacy. I bought V-Moda Bass Freq earbuds, which really help to round out the sound of the Sansa by providing plenty of lower bass response. My listening tastes range across classical, jazz, rock, blues, popular, and electronica, and the sound quality the Sansa provides is very good across all these genres.
The Sansa View is a bit large for a flash-memory based player, but I think this is due to the generous size of the display. The video quality is bright, sharp, and with good color, for videos, photos, and album covers. One small complaint is that the wallpaper options are quite plain, and there doesn't seem to be a way to add your own wallpaper options (or at least I haven't discovered it yet). Menus are simple and easy to navigate.
On feature I really wanted which no IPods have is an FM tuner. The digital tuner works quite nicely, with good sound and reception and up to 20 presets.
I really like the control wheel. It works smoothly and the rubber gives it a supple feel. And the look of the Sansa View simple and elegant, with a shiny piano black finish, with the body having a sturdy, solid build quality to it.
I've found the 8gb built-in memory to be more than adequate for my CD library. I've loaded around 60 CDs (a little over 1100 songs), and I still have about 1.5gb left. Bear in mind that many of my CDs are classical symphonies, jazz compilations, or electronica, which average 60-70 minutes each and take up space more quickly than your average CD. And the expansion slot for a microSD card, which I haven't tried yet, would allow me to add an additional 8gb of storage.
Overall, I'd rate the Sansa View as "best in class" in terms of offering very good overall quality and a generous selection of features for a modest price, compared to other comparable mp3 players.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Excellent player for the money
by reboot870 on December 25, 2007
Pros: sleek piano finish, blue light, bright screen, easy UI

Summary: Practically the best competitor to the 8GB Ipod Nano. Though it might be a lot bigger than the current Gen Nano, it is not short and squat and also offers a huge screen. When comparing the View to the Ipod Nano and Ipod Classic, the screen size rivals that of the Classic. The screen is also very clear. I have placed multiple videos on and so far they are pristine and clear. Album art is also very clear and easy to distinguish.
The device is very user friendly. The scroll pad lets you know when you go one slot, so unlike the Ipod where you may miss a song multiple times due to its touch pad, the View corrects that by letting you choose how many it skips. Each menu does what it says. If you make a playlist through WMP, which is the only way to make them, it shows up perfectly. Each screen is relatively easy to figure out, I did not even consult the manual yet and I have had no problems with it.
Compatibility with Itunes is nonexistent unless you count dragging files into the folder good enough. The main player the View uses is Windows Media Player (WMP). It is easy to make playlists and to Sync the device. Though I am an avid Itunes user, the transition into WMP was quite easy. I had no problems whatsoever.
Overall, for the price of $129.43 at Circuit City where I work, it was a great alternative to the 8gb Ipod Nano. Though people complain about how big it is, it isn't much bigger than a cell phone. For the price less than both the 8gb and 4gb Nano, this Sandisk player was the steal of the year. If you are looking for an Ipod alternative, Sandisk has developed their best Ipod killer of the lot. Though the case may not fit perfectly in everyones eyes, it is much easier to find a case to make sure your investment last a long time. I'm sure that everyone will appreciate how much thought was placed into this magnificent player.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.
