Review on 🎧 AGPTEK A02 8GB MP3 Player: Long-lasting Playback, Lossless Sound, 128GB Expandable, Dark Blue by Adam Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great little music player!

I've had this music player for a few weeks now and I really love it. In contrast to the iPod, this AGPTEK is very inexpensive and has the following advantages: - Small form factor similar to the iPod nano. - Very light, ideal for traveling. - The sound quality is fantastic. I see no difference between AGPTEK and iPod playback quality. Excellent battery life. Some Revain specs say 50-70 hours of battery life and I believe this is based on some of my own testing. - Played all the media files I've thrown at it so far. - Features a side USB card slot. supports cards up to 128GB. If you have more than 128GB of music (wow!) then swapping cards is a snap. Can be connected (connected) to a computer via a standard micro USB cable and read/write to a USB stick like any other USB stick - Has a built in FM radio which comes in handy when traveling abroad and are interested in what's on the air - You can take small recordings of voice memos with the tiny built-in microphone - Turn on/off with a simple toggle switch on the bottom of the device. I don't care if it's really over. The LCD is the perfect size, not too big to add bulk to the device, not too small to make the display difficult to read etc. A wide range of colors are available. The blue one I received has a "soft-touch" finish, which gives the device a non-slip property. However, there are a few areas where the product could be improved, as I don't think it detracts from the overall usability (for me) it would be unwise to shoot a star over it: - The LCD screen is quite low resolution and low frame rate. I just play music and it shows the titles and album art and it's perfect for that. You should be able to play movies on the device, but you must really hate yourself to watch them on that 1 inch screen! - The menu navigation and the position of the dial is a bit strange and takes some getting used to at first. After a bit of use you get the hang of it and can get anywhere pretty quickly. The rim around the front of the device would be a bit more aesthetic and tactile if it were a bit more rounded. Overall, this music player is great for traveling and storing your music collection. I would recommend this to anyone without hesitation, but I especially recommend it to travellers!
