Sandisk Sansa 2GB - a proper review

Just bought one of these on impulse, even though we really ought to be getting sent cool stuff like this for free.



It's 2GB, and has a Micro SD slot on it, which we thought was really great and totally 'futureproof' - until we saw how shit the Micro SD card 'scene' is and how they only seem to go up to 1GB at the moment. That's the problem with improperly researched impulse purchases.

Still, it's got 'the radio' for listening to music for free with, plus it's also a voice recorder so you can justify the purchase easier as that means it can also be used as a dictaphone. You know, for in meetings.

It's also good because it's not an iPod, plus you can record off the radio and everything's saved in a nice folder as an MP3 so you can pull it off onto your PC. It lights up, which is nice, although the big round dial feels a bit plasticy. It plays movies too, although the DivX rip of 'Anal Trainer 6' we stuck on there didn't show up, so it must only support mov files or some other shit format.

That's the entire review. No one's paying us to do this nonsense, so there's no need to do it properly. We'll give it 8/10. It'll definitely do for listening to the Pet Shop Boys greatest hits on.
