Good Job Coby
I bought this a few days ago, and its been awesome. I'm gonna go through some features then advice:
pros---1.only 4Gb player less thatn $30 that I've ever seen
2.looks sleek
3. plays very fast; my brother has a $100 rca opal that takes literally 5 minutes to "build database" every time it is turned on, but this player takes about 2 seconds.
4. I got a 50 songs and 1 audiobook free from Coby, and another 50 from Amazon
5. The earphones do sound just a little tinny,...

You get what you pay for...
I purchased this MP3 player for its price. I normally listen to audiobooks while workingout in the gym so I am not that concerned about sound quality. I was disappointed by this player. It continued to glitch and lock up on my while playing tracks. I tried to re-copy files and nothing seemed to work. I decided to return this player and find another brand. I give it two stars for ease of use and size.

very good for the price! (DEAD after 3 months)
This little thing does everything it's supposed to. It's easy to load with music via drag & drop. I found the easiest way to transfer music was to leave it in MTP mode, format the drive, and just drag and drop my music onto it. There are some files on it from the factory, some podcast program also, I don't need that stuff so a format worked the best for me. MTP mode lets you just pull it out and go, without having to do the "safely remove hardware" method. (windows XP)
The batter...

Good basic player
Good:
- cheap
- excellent sound quality (for my untrained ear, at least)
- plays by folder, simple drag-and-drop interface. Just drag the folder with MP3s onto the player and the folder's name will be listed in the player's menu
- ability to delete files on the player itself
- FM radio
- pretty small
- AAA battery source - no need for a charger
- standard USB connector
- standard male-female USB extender cable included
- serves as a USB thumb d...

Start good then flop
We were so excited by this product, it worked very well for a while and suddenly stopped working. I did not want to go through the hassle of getting it fixed because of the price I got it. I probably would have wasted a lot of time to get it fixed.
Conclusion: that was unfortunate but I would not by another one of the same type.

Thought I would like it....
I had read all the reviews that said, "this is just a USB stick that can play MP3s. Don't expect a fancy interface." Because it was so cheap, I figured, "why not?"
Well, I am returning mine. Don't get me wrong, it plays mp3s like it's supposed to. But after using the Sansa model of mp3 players, I'm spoiled --- I like an interface that allows me to select mp3s quickly. I just found this one to be too bare-bones.

Coby MP305
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) The Coby MP305 4G MP3 player is a low cost player with good features but you get what you pay for. About a month after purchasing the player, the FM radio quit working. Music files still play. Also the menu button doesn't always respond and you have to push it and move it around to get it to work.

First MP3
This little MP3 is not only compact and handy but very easy to use. My only complaint is the player goes through batteries really quick. I use this product five times a week for 2 hours a day and within two weeks I have to replace the battery.

The battery life
It sucks. You have to buy batteries for it, but in 8 hours it's completely wiped out. I bought it for a friend and she told me that was the only setback to this player. Overall it's a great little MP3 player and the radio is a added plus, but your best bet is a set of rechargable batteries to compensate for it's battery killing capabilities.

Great MP3 for the $$
This is my first MP3 player. It is used to entertain myself while I work out at the gym and I'm really amazed by this little device.
PROS- price, memory capacity, downloads are simple, long battery life, quite durable and the small size.
CONS- navigating through the small LCD screen is confusing at first, earphones are really cheap, comes with no arm band strap.
I'd recommend this player though you'll probably end up purchasing another pr. of headphones. I bought the Sennheiser CX400's a...
