Advantages: 6gb, easy to follow instructions, light up touchpad, protective sleeve included

Disadvantages: easily scratched, quite bulky, touchpads scroll too qucikly

I am surprised by some of the bad reviews on this product, as I purchased it and had hardly any problems with it whatsoever. The instructions were clear to understand and it was very easy to put music onto the player. The audio was clear and of high quality and the headphones were comfortable, with 2 sets of replacement heads.
The display is clear and the touch pads are fairly easy to control however, sometimes it would scroll through music so quickly that you would end up accessing the wrong item. The main display colour and brightness can also be changed to suit whatever mood you are in. The fact that the touchpads light up make the player attractive and it can be used in the dark.
The fact that the player is 6gb means that there is a lot of space for music however, pictures do take a lot out of the 6gb, so I would recommend getting a player with a higher number of gb's if you wish to put pictures on your player. I did also find that the player is much bulkier than it appears in the pictures, making it less stylish than many on the market at the moment. Also, although a slip on sleeve is provided to 'protect' the player mine still somehow got very scratched on the screen, as it is not protected by the sleeve. There are also a few scratches on the parts protected on the sleeve, and these scratches are very obvious due to the shine to the player.

Summary: Overall a stylish and high quality player.
