What Others Say
its our first
I picked this for no moving parts, and easy interface with windows XP. So far, So Good, we use it while out on the ATV's. Ease of use for us is just fine, yea, wish it had more memory, Yea, regular batteries would be nice, but ease of getting MP3's onto it is great, hit play, and enjoy....
Disappointed
I owned several memory-, CD-, and HD-based MP3/WMAplayers and honestly I don't know why I get this Muvo2 player. There are simply too many thing that I don't like about this player
1. The control is way too small (less than 1/2" in diameter with 5 functions)
2. The navigation sucks - a. You can't choose a song directly w/o playing a folder and then advance to the song you want. b. You can't back out of a folder w/o going through menu | folder option | 1st folder | next/prev folder... c. Only 2/3 functions of the tiny control wheel is available for navigation.
3. They want you to buy additional battery for $50 instead of using standard batteries.
I Rate It At 4.75 Stars
I received the X-Trainer a week ago and, so far, so good.
I purchased this device to use while exercising, not to store my entire music collection. The 512MB flash memory gives me enough space for 5 or 6 albums recorded at 128kbps, which provides fine fidelity. If you want a large storage volume and are not worried about moving parts, take your chances with a hard-disk drive unit.
The earphones are functional if not particularly comfortable. The sports armband is secure and the lithium battery arrived charged and ready to use. The control buttons are simple and easy to use and the LCD display is easily read even with my tired, old eyes. The software provided works well with my Windows XP operating system and moving files ... Read More
Good step towards a great product....
This was my first MP3 player purchase. I have waited until there was a flash-memory-based product with sufficient capacity to be worth my effort. While the Creative MUVO2 X-Trainer has several attractive features (intuitive/no-hassel interface as add-on hard drive via USB2.0 or USB1.1 connection, mega-battery life - over 24 hours continuous play,noise-free operation - no moving parts, skip free playback - no moving parts, and armband/waistclip, seemless integration with Creative PlayCenter software), it falls short on some critical features:
* Unable to play ".WAV" files without errors * Playback buttons not very user-friendly - especially compared to other products on the market. * No FM radio * No record function/input ... Read More
Muvo2 X-Trainer 512Mb
Overall opinion: Would I buy it again? Definitely! Fantastic little player. Best solid state on the market currently.
Pros: Great clarity, good solid feel, fantastic design (clean and simple), Excellent capacity options considering other players on the market average around 64-256mb), solid state memory definitely a plus. Can recharge through USB or DC adaptor. USB2.0 for fast transfers. Backlighting good idea. Fast playing/startup. Good volume (with earphones).
Cons: Buttons a bit small - can be difficult to operate when exercising. While sound clarity is fantastic, bass is lacking a little. LCD display is really cool, but maybe not 'glance' friendly. Belt-clip accessory is a bit cheap and plastically (wheres the nice leather/vinyl ... Read More
