  Simple, practically invincible, feature loaded.

  Summary: I've owned this little jewel of an mp3 player for two years and have put it through the most difficult trials you could expect an electronic device to go through. After being soaked in salt water, freshwater and mud the device still performs as advertised and sports a great 12+ battery life of selective playback (using the screen every 5~15 minutes to pick a different song).
  
  The screen is a tad too small for good picture viewing or video playback
  
  Audio recording quality is impressive for an mp3 player and allows you to save at different WAV bitrates and line in allows for on the go music ripping from any device with a male-male headphone cable.
  
  Audio quality is where this player shines even at Increases volume the player still outputs crisp distortion/noise free audio. You can download modified firmware that increases the output volume and a program exists that allows complete firmware modification for total user customization.
  
  TL;DR Great music player for cheap audiophiles: supports flac, outputs enough amps for larger headphones and has great recording options.

  Summary: This player is generally cheap and feature packed but there is also a lot room of errors. Wish that it has a better music interface and a fast navigating system. The SRS WOW EQ is horrible here since the balancing of sound is hard it at some point it lacks bass and treble. I recommend use the user EQ here. Video playback is passable enough. Build quality is flimsy but luckily there is a silicone cover.
  
  In general this player is half good since it has a lot of features and half bad backed by poor interface wish transcend will release a new firmware that addresses this issues.
