Review on SanDisk Sansa Clip Jam MP3 Player 8Gb: High-quality portable music on-the-go! by Hien Kent ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

Very long chose the player. I stopped at this - the price at the time of purchase was about 2.5 thousand (I took it in December 2022). What immediately pleased me was the weight (just a feather), the built-in memory - well, at least for the first time it is enough; In addition, I inserted my 16GB card. (+) A clip on the player is always useful. Hooking somewhere for clothes is sometimes just necessary) (+) As for the volume - very good. If someone has not yet understood - there are settings for the permissible volume, depending on the region. When you first turn on the default is "Europe" - and there are strict requirements for the maximum volume. Change to the rest of the world - and all the way through. The sound quality is quite decent. (+) A player with a screen, for such a price - it's cool. There is a useful feature "playback by folders". For me, this is extremely important. (-) Immediately found a minus - if there are more folders in the selected folder, they will NOT be included in the playlist. So if you have, for example, the "Rock" folder - dump all the tracks in a heap, without folders by albums or artists. A little uncomfortable. (+) But all the button locations and all the commands are intuitive and you will understand the controls completely painlessly) (-) As I already wrote in the shortcomings - sometimes it stops seeing the memory card. It is treated easily, just reconnect. But the aftertaste is bad. (+/-) As for the firmware, 2022 localization is a little less than completely miserable. Phrases are long and do not scroll, i. E. do not read. It is better to immediately switch to English. Here is an example of inconvenience: "Random selection": this phrase does not fit on a small screen, and it is not clear whether you enabled the function or not. But here is "Shuffle: On / Off" - easily, and everything is clear. (-) Another disadvantage is that there are three cells for playlists, and there is no way to name/rename them. Stupidly "Go List 1/2/3". Uncomfortable. Bottom line: for its price, a player with a screen, excellent sound, weight, clothespin and folder playback is a great find for those who need an inexpensive but good player. Take it for sure!)

Pros
  • Clip!) Weight, price, sound volume, built-in memory 8GB, playback by folders, built-in clock + date, timer and stopwatch. Intuitive interface. Memory card slot.
Cons
  • Poor 2022 localization, build quality (the front and back of the case are roughly docked), subfolders are not included in the playback. The memory card sometimes "falls off"
