5 out of 5 stars Excellently small, infinitely expandable   September 24, 2009
Defaultluser
70 out of 71 found this review helpful

I've been very pleased with this small wonder, it is about 1/2 the size of your average portable mp3/video player with an LCD screen, but the OLED screen on the Clip+ is still very readable and easily navigable. I've paired my player with a 16GB MicroSDHC card, giving me enough room for my entire mp3 collection in a player the size of a matchbook.

The player itself is very lightweight, but feels very firm gripped in your hand, and the buttons have a very solid feel when pressed. The clip is non-removable, but probably not a breakage concern like the previous Clip.

Some technical observations:

The Clip+ plays back OGG Vorbis tracks completely gapless. It does not play back mp3 files encoded with LAME gapless (but the gap is extremely small).

The off-pitch playback issues of the original Clip (songs used to play at the wrong speed) are fixed in the Clip+.

Battery life is around the advertised 15 hours. It's not amazing (it trades battery life to have the screen and the slot), but it does last a week of casual listening.

Sound quality is outstanding, better than I ever expected from such an inexpensive player.

FLICKER WARNING: the OLED screen is crisp, but due to how the technology works, the screen must be refreshed like a CRT. Thus, if the refresh rate is too slow, flicker is visible (to those who are sensitive). The refresh rate of the Clip+ screen is very low, and people sensitive to it (including myself) can see flicker.



5 out of 5 stars Thoroughly Impressed   September 28, 2009

I am very impressed with this device. I needed something small and light so that I could use it while running or biking, and I couldn't ask for a better product.
Before coming across this, I had purchased the new iPod shuffle, which looks cool and is incredible small, but that is where the pros end for that device. I immediately returned the shuffle when I realized I couldn't use my Shure 530's with them (wtf?).
Then I found out about this awesome player. It obviously fits my need for a small, light player, and the fact that it clips easily and securely to a shirt is great. Now, in order for it to earn a five star rating, it needed to do a lot more than just clip to my shirt, and it far exceeded my expectations:
- Sound Quality: I am amazed at how much better this sounds than my iPod classic. The bass reproduction is the most noticeable difference. Hip Hop and electronic music was always lacking in the bass presence with my old iPod, even when paired with some great headphones. There is no issue with this device. The bass does not sound over bloated or artificial in any way, just clear, bold bass as it sounds out of a home theatre or car. Sound Quality is absolutely top notch. Be sure to rip your music using high quality settings, because the difference is definitely noticeable between highly compressed files and larger ones. Lossless files sound amazing.
- Durablility: Can't speak on this yet. I've only had it for a week. But it seems pretty well built. The only issue is the lack of covering for the micro SD slot. This seems to be the weakpoint and I expect problems with reading micro SD cards before the player itself has any problems
- Battery Life: No complaints here. I took it with me out of town last weekend and still haven't had to charge it. It's got about 50% charge after many hours of listening. This will definitely suffice for me.
- Ease of use: Nothing major enough here to cause me to rate it less than 5. It's not as easy to navigate as an ipod, but the value and other considerations make this easy to overlook.

Overall: I really love this product. At only $70, it is a low risk buy that will definitely prove its value in spades. With 32 gb cards on the horizon (c'mon san disk! Hurry up with em!), you can potentially have a 40 gig player the size of a box of matches. This thing is cool.



5 out of 5 stars Sandisk hit the target with a bullseye   September 28, 2009

My son has a refurb 1GB original Sansa Clip - for the money I paid, we got a heckuva deal. It occasionally has lockup issues, but a soft reset or firmware update always seemed to wake it up. It's small, inexpensive, full of features, has a screen, and sounds great.

Bought the new 8GB Clip+ to replace my wife's dead iPod Nano 2GB. It's basically the same player with an expansion slot and even better sound quality. The earbuds that come with it are pretty decent, nothing fancy, but it's obvious when you first listen to it that the sound is really, really good. My wife even commented that the sound was really good, which surprised her.

The 8GB Clip+ was targeted at somebody that needed an inexpensive and highly portable music player that doesn't compromise on sound quality, and they hit the bullseye. The new iPod Nano with video recorder just came out, too, and all I could think was "so what". For the same 8GB and $80 more than a Clip+ you get a bulkier device, a video recorder, support for proprietary formats, and no expandability. I'd rather use a smart phone (iPhone 3GS or myTouch 3G) or a digital camera (such as Canon PowerShot A1100 IS or SX120IS) to take video And the Clip+ is way out of the iPod Shuffle's league - Shuffle has no screen, doesn't come in 8GB, the 4GB costs more than the 8GB Clip+, and is even more proprietary.

For what it offers and what the average Joe or Jane (or little Johnny or Judy) needs, the Clip+ is perfect. Don't waste your money on anything more expensive for listening to tunes, unless a Clip+ 16GB comes out!



5 out of 5 stars How to create playlists   December 6, 2009

I have an iPod classic and iPhone, but I needed something for exercising. I was going to add another iPod to my collection b/c they are so small now, but I saw this at a local store and got it. Why? Cheap and great features! This can't be beat for the price. Plus, some other cool benefits are that it has an FM receiver so I can listen to the TV stations when I'm at the gym on the treadmill. It also has a built-in microphone which works great for me b/c I record notes to myself a lot and the iPhone's memo apps are a huge pain to the transfer the sound files to my computer (they use email to do it and there are size limits). Clip+ saves my recordings as Wav files and I can copy and paste them to my computer. Sweet.

If you want to create playlists, you should know that Windows Media Player is very buggy and doesn't work well with this. I thought I was missing the obvious till I Googled it and see that everyone else feels the same. The cure for this is a free program called MediaMonkey. It's the easiest program to use for transferring playlists to the Clip+. Just create your playlists in MM and then right-click it's name and select 'Synch to Sansa Clip+'. Piece of cake! I spent over an hour screwing with Windows Media Player and I never could get it to work properly.

Oh yeah - one more thing. When you plug the USB sync cable into the Clip+, push it all the way in till it's flush. When I push mine in it actually "clicks" half way and it feels like it's in there. But it's not. Push it all the way in to connect it.



5 out of 5 stars All you need; nothing you don't   December 14, 2009

It was one of those slow-motion moments we all get in life. As I labored away on the elliptical, sweat soaking my shirt, breath coming in labored gasps, one of my flailing hands snagged the headphone cord that ran from the cans on my head to the Zune (30GB first-gen) on the downswing. The cord tightened sharply. The headphones jerked and nearly flew off my head. The Zune didn't have a chance - it flipped through the air, popped the headphone cord out of the jack, and smacked soundly upon the hard floor beneath.

It's a testament to the durability of those big, clunky Zunes that it survived, and with nary a scratch. But it got me thinking about the need for an uber-portable music player that would simply play music and stay out of the way.

Enter the Sansa Clip Plus 8GB. What a great little player!

I previously owned the Sansa e280, and wasn't very impressed. It was an adequate player, but hobbled by an unreasonably slow boot-up time, once you filled it up with music. Once I picked up a Zune, the e280 got sold with a quickness. But after reading all sorts of reviews on all sorts of tiny players, I decided to give Sandisk another try, and I'm glad I did.

The Clip Plus is easy to fill with music (no special software required), easily and surprisingly expandable (takes up to a *16GB* microSD card!), light and small as can be (complimentary-box-of-matches small), pretty darned inexpensive, gets good battery life, charges up quickly, and has decent sound quality. It's so small and light that you really don't have to put it in a pocket - you could conceivably just dangle it at the end of your headphones cord.

I've found that it can't crank out the tunes as loudly as the bigger, fancier players, but considering its size, that's hardly a drawback. I do worry that dust and moisture (i.e. sweat) will get inside the player via the open USB and microSD slots, but I suppose there's not much you can do besides be careful.

If you need a portable media player that will dish up candy-colored album covers when you listen to your music, store a library of movies, and allow you to catch up with episodes of "24" or whatever, keep on looking. But if you need the easiest, most hassle-free, most cost-effective way to cart your music, audiobooks, and podcasts around, the Clip Plus is an awfully good choice.
