The Samsung P2 is an eye-pleasing to update the product line of Samsung MP3 players. It has elegant, sophisticated edge, round, is very lightweight and has a finish glossy black that is reminiscent of a grand piano. The sound quality is excellent, especially compared to the same prices for MP3 players in the market. The duration Battery life varies depending on how you use the touchscreen interface, but on average you can expect from twenty to thirty hours of use.
I was a little afraid buy a mp3 player touchscreen, as I usually prefer physical buttons to press, but the implementation of the P2 interface is excellent, and I must admit that I have won. One thing I might mention, however, is that when you move the screen to each other, you have to steal it from right to left, which seems a bit counterintuitive. The reverse is true when you are looking to go back a page, swiping from left to right.
With the default settings of the manufacturer, you make a circular motion on the screen to navigate the menu, which can be a bit tedious, but seems to be a fun feature in the first place. Fortunately, this feature can be disabled, allowing you to use a grid menu more functional.
The functions of the audio player of P2 are excellent, although it may be difficult getting it to sync with Winamp 5.5. However, if you use Windows Media Player to synchronize your P2, there is a great job. The P2 will sync your playlists, without any problems, and is also excellent albums recognize when they are copied directly as a USB mass storage. The player functions integrated are complete with a customizable equalizer that has several presets and a regulator of clarity. The spectrum analyzer, album art and track information are great additions, but it would have been nice if the default light show followed with the music. I consider that to be a glitch, though, and it really does not detract from the experience much at all.
The video player is not bad, although there are some problems with motion blur when viewing dvd's. Furthermore, in order to view videos, you will need to convert them using software from Samsung to play them. This seems to be quite normal, but more like mp3 players that you need to use some kind of proprietary software.
The Samsung P2 may be a little expensive, but beyond features already mentioned, it also has an FM radio and Bluetooth capability for up to two different Bluetooth devices. There is also a passage for your cell phone to a set of Bluetooth headphones. The Bluetooth feature is particularly useful if you have headphones, a car radio, or speakers using Bluetooth technology.
Everywhere, I feel that Samsung has made a great contribution to the mp3 players currently on the market with the P2. If a new mp3 player is in your budget or your list of favorites, then this is comparable and sometimes even better than the giant market of iPod Touch.
