'The FM radio and JPEG photo viewer found on the NWZ-S710F are nothing special, but both are easy to use and add value to the device.'
'In PC World Test Center audio tests, it netted a signal-to-noise ratio score of 82 decibels--just a shade below the latest iPods and the top-ranked Creative Zen X-Fi --as well as a barely registering harmonic distortion and noise level of 0.01 percent. '
'Its indoor video quality is poor, and without even basic controls for brightness and contrast, there's nothing you can do to compensate for bad lighting.'
'Slim design with larger screen.'
'The bundled headphones do a capable job of rendering FM-quality broadcasts but fall a little flat when it comes to high-quality audio files, and still struggle with sounds at either extremes -- rolling, deep bass or high trebles came out a little squidgy for our tastes.'
'I plugged several pairs of headphones into the new nano and I was as pleased as ever with the sound, playing MP3, AAC, and AIFF files.'

'Even without any of the whiz-bang options or noise-cancelling activated, music is full-bodied and vibrant. '
'FM radio reception isn't great and connection of the Clip with Rhapsody was problematic.'
'The highest volume was more than we could stand.'
'Impressive sound quality'
'Like most budget MP3 players, sound quality from the included earphones is nothing to write home about, but at the very least, generous foam padding and light weight makes them comfortable to wear for long periods. '
'Shortcomings like occasionally unresponsive controls and weak video support are disappointing, but the overall good looks, top-notch user interface, and value factor cancel them out.'
'Samsung's been a little stingy with the screen.'
'The slim, candybar shape with the screen at the top is simple but effective.'
'the images are very clear and there isn't a slight hint of blurriness.'
'Summary: The design flaw in its A/V out connection cable made the Zen X-Fi2 a terrible disappointment after the great success I had with the old Vision M as a teaching tool.'
'And the player's interface, despite its clear and colourful design, felt sluggish and did not properly respond to touch input. '
'troublesome touch interface'
'the screen was bright and the contrast just about right.'
