Almost perfect.

by transcend1 , Aug 31 '03
Pros: Excellent sound. WOW SRS on-board. Small. Light. Easy to use. Serves as USB drive. Multi-purpose.
Cons: Supplied headphones terrible. Sub-standard case. Poor mechanism for changing tracks. Capacity non-upgradeable.
I finally decided to let my beloved iRiver Slim-X go because I got tired of carrying a bag just so that my investment (the excellent Slim-X - read my review here ht tp://www.epinions.com/content_ 90892766852) is ...

MP3 player/recorder

by kemasa , Jun 22 '04
Pros: Nice recorder, good sound quality, small
Cons: Poor user interface, poor battery life when recording (no external power source)
Most of the reviews of this product fail to mention that it is also a recorder, which is one of the main reasons I got this. You can record voice with the microphone, but the quality is limited. There is a line in plug which you can record from other ...

Yepp, I like it!

by jeannebucks , Jan 04 '04
Pros: advanced recording ability, sound quality, supports WMA format, uses standard battery, FM
Cons: no playlist(?), is it durable?
A couple of years ago, I was looking for an MP3 player that could also record and play FM and wasn't successful. (Probably they had them in Japan, but I'm stuck in the backwaters of Canada). I was really happy to find out about the Samsung Yepp YP-55, ...

Yepp YP-55 Lipstick size MP3 player with great sound and lack of quality feel

by leisure_larry Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 10 '03
Pros: Great sound, voice recording, mp3 encoding function, Lipstick Size factor
Cons: EXPENSIVE, no memory expansion, user buttons have no quality feel to them
So MP3 players are becoming popular. Why choose this one? His 256 MB will hold about 80 songs at 128 KB. A standard MP3 CD player will hold 700MB and about 200 songs. Quite a bit more but quite a bit bulkier too. Good news about a CD MP3 player: ...

A very cool player

by mrblod , Jan 22 '04
Pros: Great sound, firmware upgradable, almost perfect size, plenty of storage, includes FM radio.
Cons: Cruddy headphones, useless case, tricky menu navigation, low battery life/very little low battery warning.
After suffering through a bulky, substandard sounding CD player (ht tp://www.epinions.com/content_ 92047904388), I decided it was finally time to upgrade to something smaller, a little higher-tech and, well, cooler. ...

Superb MP3 player, get the new firmware and make it even better!

by bentonquest , Feb 03 '04
Pros: Loud, amazing sound. Good battery life. Quality construction. Speedy transfers.
Cons: No balance setting.
This is the third MP3 player I own and I must say I love it. I researched a lot of MP3 players before buying it and I'm confident it must be one of the best flash based players on the market. Sound is amazing and loud, and the YP-55 feels like a ...

This is what I've been looking for

by townjam , Dec 29 '03
Pros: Small and Portable - Decent Voice Recorder
Cons: No memory cards--cannot jump from folder to folder
After returning the annoying Sony MiniDisc MZ-N10 I started looking for something that would: 1. Play a few hours worth of MP3's 2. Allow Voice Recording that can be transferred to the computer 3. Be great to take to the gym for a workout 4. Be ...

a great buy

by kirillch , Feb 15 '04
Pros: sound effects are great, can switch between 4 soundeffects with a touch of one button
Cons: nothing serious
I bought this thing by accident. Came to bestbuy for mpio but it was not available so I decided to try this one at 150 tax included (I was sure I would return it). And the more I have it the more I like it. Sound quality is great. Frankly i did not ...

YP-55i (192MB) Great Player! (updated OCT 19 '03)

by digitalnub , Oct 12 '03
Pros: Great sound, sexy design, SRS equalizer, versatile, no software required for file transfer
Cons: Crappy headphones, annoying low battery warning
This was my very first MP3 player and I'm very happy about it. No regrets. When I first did my initial research, I found out that this player was over all very good, with exception to the included headphones. I thought that it wouldn't really matter ...

Great little player for people who don't like to lug more bulky electronics

by bob98sr5 , Dec 08 '03
Pros: - small - lightweight - intuitive volume and song select controls
Cons: - ridiculous case - substandard headphones---just give them away - inactivity shutoff
I work out 3-4 times a week. I also go on one long run per weekend. Also, I travel to Korea about 3-4 times a year. I need my music! Thus, I needed something extremely small, lightweight and inconspicuous. Thus, some of the MP3s out there do not fit ...

by mandy88 , Jan 26 '04
Pros: see above
Cons: see above
before buying this yepp mp3 player, i had previously bought a 64mb rca player which had good sound and worked well except for the fact that it only held around 10 songs. i then decided to do a bit of research to look for a 128mb player that was not too ...

Excellent first impression

by mattsjunkemail , May 04 '04
Pros: Easy to use. Full feature set. Light. Mass-storage for Linux and Windows. Standard AAA.
Cons: USB Dongle is cumbersome. Ear phones are cheap. Device feels somewhat cheaply made.
My first impression is great. I've had it for a few hours and haven't found anything really wrong. I didn't have to read the manual to copy files on and listen to them. Nor did I need the manual to figure out the other main functionality -- FM radio ...

Overall, okay player

by montster70 , Jan 20 '04
Pros: Nice rich bass sound, FM radio, line-in feature, small, voice recorder
Cons: Terrible case, poor button design, inability to organize tracks, marginal headphones
I bought this player about 1 year ago to replace a Toshiba model that came with the purchase of my laptop. I wanted an FM radio and more memory. The Yepp has great sound, but the headphones are buds and fall out of my ears when I'm working out at ...

Fantastic
by dawgchaser ,Jun 29 '05
Pros: Size. Ease of use. Didn't have to have any special drivers or software. FM reception.
Cons: Type small on display if your eyes aren't good close up
This is the easiest mp3 player that i've used. I'm no expert but I play with all kinds of electronics. I've had experiences with 4 different players and this is the easiest to figure out. I was able to hook it up to my computer without any special software and put my music on it. My eyes aren't thay good anymore so seeing the display is hard , but thats the price you pay for such a small device. I didn't particularly like the earphones but they are adequate. The battery lasts 2 days at work , probably about 14 hours. The FM recieves better than my son's player. I have had it about a month and the only time it wasn't working right was when the battery was low , a fresh battery fixed the problem. It fits nicely in my shirt pocket and the ease of use makes this one a "10" to me.
