Pros: Super small, arm strap, lightweight, weatherproof, can be operated by feel only.
Cons: Headphones, battery life, won't last forever.
Summary: I have owned mp3 players since about 1998. I started back with the Rio300 and have owned almost every Rio since then because I have an unfortunate addiction to buying electronic toys like this. So my Nike psa[play 120 made by Rio just died on me so I ... read more

Pros: Compact, good sound, unique headphones direct cable behind, comes with charger and battery.
Cons: Musicmatch caused ripped Cd's to skip, no product support
Summary: This is a neat little player. The sound quality is pretty good and the unit is easy to operate. I like the armband and the fact that a rechargeable battery and charger were included. The headphones direct the cable behind you out of the way but didn't ... read more

Pros: Works well, sounds good, and is very versatile.
Cons: You have to turn down a sales pitch every time you quit the software.
Summary: I have had this MP3 player for nearly a year. I have no real complaints about the player itself. The maximum volume is too low for the soft parts in symphonic music, but high enough for pop and even for small-ensemble classical. The sound is very rich ... read more

Pros: * Small size
* Rechargeable battery/charger are included
* Very water resistant
Cons: * No clip for player
* Can't scroll through titles
Summary: This is my first review for Epinions- I normally read other people's opinions, but when I bought and tried to use the Nike PSA 128, I was "inspired" (read: enraged enough) to write in. I had read really mixed reviews, but then in reading reviews for ... read more

Pros: Small size, good capacity, skip free (if you can get the thing to work).
Cons: Does not work on Macintosh computers as advertised. Bad Tech Service.
Summary: I bought this device to use on a Macintosh (it is advertised as being Mac compatible). However, the Mac version of the installer software does not work at all. I have tried it on ALL currently available operating systems (OS 8.6, 9.2.2 and even OS X) and ... read more

Pros: small size, lite weight
Cons: IT FREEZES
Summary: This player is small, lite weight, and has more memory then Nike's prior model. But it freezes up towards the end of the playlist. For example, if there are 20 songs, 1-15 will play fine. But for songs 16-20, it will freeze at the end of each song as ... read more

Pros: Great size, sound, and battery life(rechargable)!
Cons: A little pricey.
Summary: In short...this MP3 player is amazing. I got this player in the December of 2002 and am still amazed at its small size and enormous power.
The sound is amazing, you can even create your own custom balance.
Portability is probably the ... read more

Pros: Skip-proof, Smart Wire Management, 128mb, and loaded with necessities & accessories...
Cons: ...none at this time...
Summary: I am the everyday athlete that most people would come to think of. I run daily, I lift weights, and most of all - I play soccer nearly 24/7. As you know, if you yourself are an athlete, it can get pretty exhausting when training hour after hour. I am ... read more

Pros: small size. armband for workouts.
Cons: terrible headphones, annoying magnets, can't use RealOne, no shuffle option, MusicMatch software, flaky performance
Summary: I purchased the Nike PSA 128mb (phillips model) from Best Buy. The customer service representative encouraged me to buy the Rio 128mb instead. Now I realized that he was very correct.
While downloading .mp3's to the player via MusicMatch, ... read more

Pros: Very small, lightweight and holds a good number of songs
Cons: Headphones are awful, magnet idea is solid, but unconventional
Summary: Finally, after two straight months of slaving away at work, I was able to go back to the gym. The fourth quarter was over, and I dedicated myself to start working out at lunch again.
This was me on January 1st, but I had been thinking that way ... read more

Pros: Comes with arm-band, battery charger, small, splash-proof.
Cons: No shuffle/random play, headphones are horrible [fall out of your ears], needs better EQ.
Summary: The idea behind this MP3 was great. You can wear it on your arm-band to the gym or run with it. Unfortunately the headphones do not keep up with you. Behind the head headphones get in the way if you want to bench press, and worse, they fall out of ... read more

Pros: This item is VERY portable. "Invisible" controls allow for ease of use.
Cons: ANNOYING headphones.
Summary: I recently picked up this item for use at the gym. I'd been threatening for some time to get one of those "strap-em to your arm" Sony walkman's, but they only got the radio, and reception on those things is horrendous.
The Nike psaPlayer ... read more

Pros: Tiny, comfortable, great sound, easy to use
Cons: Headphones sometimes clumsy, Wiring can be clumsy as well
Summary: I received the Philips/Nike PSA Play 128 Max personal mp3 player in December 2002. This is a self-contained mp3 player and requires no external discs. It is like a mini 129Mb hard drive in a compact component.
The player is about half the size ... read more
