What a great buy.
By DeShaun
This is my third Samsung mp3 player. I own a YP-MT6Z, a YP-T9, and now this. I'm really thoroughly impressed with this player. The touch screen interface simplifies some tasks, such as quickly finding a song in a list. No more multiple button presses, just scroll your finger down to the song and tap.The screen is beautiful and clear. They give you two screen protectors, but I'm horrible at applying them, so I just keep a microfiber cloth handy.it comes with a nice mini stand that allows you to prop the device up at an angle while it's on a flat surface. That way you don't have to carry it in your hand while you watch video.Video is clear and smooth. Be certain to configure the media studio to encode at 30 fps, because it defaults to 15, and that's too choppy.I don't have bluetooth headphones, but I'd love to use that functionality. Turn it off if you don't have the headphones, though (it is on by default).The ability to hear your music while browsing the other menus is really good. I can play a song, go through some photos, change some settings, build a playlist, and never have to worry about my current song stopping.Gesture based functions come off without a hitch. Personally, the earbuds provided do not stay in my ears, but they do provide a decent sound quality.I definitely recommend this. If I had any complaints, it would be that it doesn't come bundled with a pair of bluetooth headphones, and that there is no way to charge it without a usb port. Oh, and a carry case couldn't have hurt.EDIT: I've since updated the firmware and if I could give an extra star, I would. The bluetooth functionality they added really boosts the value of the device. Out of the box, it can already pair with a set of bluetooth headphones, but as of December, it can also pair with your phone. If you've been wondering what the mic on the bottom of the device is for, that would be it. You pair it with your phone, and when you get a call, you get a tone in your headphones to let you know a call is coming. Take out your P2, answer the call, and speak through the mic while you hear them on the headphones. It's great. You can also add your address book to the P2, so that you can see specifically who is calling just as you would on your phone. I've used this with my Blackberry Curve, and it's really great. I was easily able to send my address book via bluetooth over to the P2, and call quality was pretty good.I had a little trouble with the file transfer, but I'm blaming myself for that, not the device. Pick this one up.

Awesome MP3 Player!!
By J. N. Parmar
This is the best mp3 player! It has fantastic sound quality. Pictures and videos are really stunning on this 3" widescreen. FM radio is very clear. With a firmware update, you can even record the radio, which sounds terrific.In addition, with the new firmware, you can even play fun games, with its good touch screen. With other updates you can have a calculator to perform simple calculations; you can also create your own menus with EmoDio (a new version of Media Studio). This player also has bluetooth. It allows you to pair the player with a pair of headphones or bluetooth speakers. You can even transfer files wirelessly between bluetooth devices.The touch screen takes a little while to get used to, but after getting used to it, then it is really easy and fun to use. Its interface is cool and this player is fun to use. It has many useful extras like text viewer, alarms, and a world clock.Downloading music and video onto the P2 is very easy even with Samsung Media Studio. You just bring in the file into Media Studio, then you click the arrow and it converts it into the correct format, svi, then transfers it to the P2.Samsung has very good firmware updates that raise the value of their products and add more features. The first and second updates added added the ability to make calls with the P2 with bluetooth and transfer files to other bluetooth devices. It also improved the touchscreen interface so that it is more responsive. The 3rd update added games and more menu styles. This was followed by the fourth one that added a touchscreen calculator to the Samsung P2. As you have read, Samsung continues adding additional features to make the P2 even better. Best of all, each of these updates are all free!I think more people should buy this rather than an ipod. An 8 gb nano is about the same price, yet you get much more with this mp3 player. It has a wonderful touchscreen interface unlike the ipod. It has a 3 inch screen compared to the ipod nano's 2 inch screen. In addition it has FM radio, bluetooth capabilities. Best of all you are not stuck using iTunes. You can easily transfer files with Windows Explorer or Windows Media Player or the included Samsung software.I really recommend this player and I think everyone should get this. If you are thinking of getting an ipod, think again and consider this P2. You will be glad that you did so.

Great player, minimal problems
By Raymond Chow
Sound Quality: Great, a majority of average users will be more than satisfied; audiophiles may be slightly disappointed.Provided Headphones: Average, acceptable for common use, but for a significantly upgraded experience, invest in a slightly more expensive product.Video: Clear, smooth. Above average quality when encoded at 30fps.Bluetooth: Excellent functionality. Connected to my 5 year old Sony Ericsson T637 without a hitch. When a call comes in, music fades away and call is routed through the player. Can also make calls by entering a number, or by selecting an existing contact (requires you to bluetooth your addressbook to the player from your phone. in order to do this, make sure the two are NOT connected as a mobile device first). Functions as a headset when connected to a phone, wireless headphones when connected to bluetooth headphones/headset. Functionality requires a firmware upgrade (see below)Firmware/Software: Firmware upgrades easy and without problems, just follow the onscreen instructions from the software. Software functions okay as a media player; transfer is quick and conversion speed is acceptable for video.Microphone: Player with most recent firmware as of June 08 still does not have a voice recorder option. When relaying phone calls through the player, microphone is weak and requires either loud talking, or holding the mic end up to your mouth.Screen Button Size: I have small/thin fingers, and even I have trouble sometimes with the touchscreen buttons, especially at the bottom. Generally not a problem, you just need to be very conscious about exactly where you touch.Touchscreen: Easily picks up fingerprints, but also easily cleaned. Responsiveness is average, occasionally swiping left/right to go next/prev will activate the up/down volume control, and trying to swipe occasionally changes the visualization option instead. Outside of the Now Playing screen, functions well. Screen is bright and vivid indoors, but will be washed out and difficult to see outside.Battery Life: With bluetooth on, around 10 hours on full charge.Physical Buttons: On/Off/Play/Pause, Lock, Volume Up, Volume Down.USB Interface: Proprietary, requires the Samsung USB cable. When connected to a computer, the player is un-usable, and will display a USB Connected screen. When connected to power-only, player is usable.Most annoying problem IMHO: Tapping the visualization in the Now Playing screen changes it to the next available vis. This annoys me to no end, as I like to keep it on the Album Info vis (static, no animation).
