Rating: - * excellent player but not if it breaks and you meet customer service ... The sound quality and feel of the player are excellent. However after 4 months of light use and no accidents, the LCD screen developed a crack. Player still worked but since it was under warranty, I followed the awkward customer service rules and shipped it to their Irvine service center ... to receive a bill from an Ebay address telling me to send on over $67. No warning that they would bill me even though they already knew the problem (and that it is impossible for a customer to prove they didn't mistreat the player), no explanation. Other reviewers have had the same problem. Things break and I can take that. I would have preferred no warranty, rather than this inconvenient charade. COWON please take note. Rating: - * Great sound ... An audiophile's delight. paired with Sennheiser's CX300s I have enjoyed a few hundred hours of music on this unit - VERY happy with the sound it produces. Kinda has some issues with firmware (difficulty with playlists) but overall is user-friendly and easily navigated. Hopefully Cowon will straighten out their interface or Rockbox will be released soon - even if they don't I'm happy to have it. Also bought a Noreve case to go with - sleek little package that I have dropped while bicycling - NO DAMAGE!!!! Rating: - * Wow... ... This is an AMAZING device...simply no words to describe how great this digital player is. I had a Cowon X5 for about 4 years until its battery started to last only 30 minutes (this is an innate flaw with lithium ion batteries not a fault of the device itself, it was still running smooth after all that time!). So I stay loyal to Cowon, and they have rewarded us with this gem. Pros: -Cowon still produces (along with Sony) the best sounding music players. The JetEffect enhancements rival my Creative sound card. -Touch screen will be a love/hate affair for people...I LOVE it. -Video is great and works wonderfully. Won't be watching Lord of the Rings on it, but its nice to have for long plane rides. -Picture viewing couldn't be better. Forget your phone for showing pictures. -FM radio -Voice/line in recording -SD Card for additional storage (in theory unlimited) -SMALL! I couldn't believe how tiny this thing is. -Battery LIFE. I don't know what drugs Cowon put this thing on, but it will last FOREVER without charging. Of course I'm comparing to a 4 year old X5 which barely turned on before it lost battery life. -Many more to name here! Cons: -Interface when finding music can be tricky, but I'v only had it a few hours so might be a learning curve. -Only 4 GB of internal memory. For me this isn't a con, but some people will complain of the need to use SD cards to add more. But considering how small the thing is... -No wifi/bluetooth...but what player has this now? -Really nothing else. 150 dollars. Get this player. Rating: - * Great! A cheap and reliable iPod Touch ... The touch screen is great, and, while I don't use the stylus, it's nice to know I have it (I haven't taken the plastic off of the screen yet, but once I do, I know I'll smudge it without that stylus.) The USB charger is great, although I haven't had to charge it yet in the first week. The 4 gigs of space isn't as much as I'd hoped, but I plan to purchase a few SD cards to make up for it (which it supports). Definitely worth it's price. No problems with it at all, except there's no way to store the stylus on the device. I've knotted mine to the headphone wire, which isn't desirable. Rating: - * Don't by Cowon products... ... I have been thoroughly disappointed with their products and lack of customer service. They average about 2-3 weeks to return an email for customer service issues. I finally got through to a representative and was advised to send the product back to them, at my own expense and they emailed back about 1 month later stating that there is no problem with the item. When I emailed back with a detailed description of the specific situation I encountered (item stopped powering on or charging through the USB port) they ceased communication. I still haven't heard back from them, but will never buy their products ever again. They are terrible both at manufacturing and caring for their customers.
