It's cheap, but I'm not impressed

$119 is quite cheap for a 16gb upgradeable DAP with Flac support, and the price will probably lower than the MSRP when it is released. However, I don't really see any need to upgrade from the Fuze I have already.  They didn't add any of the features I wanted, and it's disappointing that they keep promoting slotRadio and insisting that a 2.4" screen is good for watching videos.

16 Gb of space and a 24h battery life is dissapointing as well

SlotRadio is definitely a fail. The SlotMusic cards, if they had been FLAC, might have been worth considering, but SLotRadio, no way.

Everything I saw was a step backwards.

 

1) No physical buttons other then volume rocker.

 

2) No dock for LOD anymore.  Having the mini-usb is alright, but the benefit of the LOD is better.

Oh, no, it looks like Samsung Q2. That awful touch control - I hope not.

I, for one, hope for higher capacity players soon enough, with better battery life :)

What a dumb move on Sansa's part. They completely ignored the features that the Fuze excelled at, and instead tried to jump on the iPod flashiness bandwagon with a slick new skin. Really disappointiong.

Are you sure it doesn't measure blood glucose levels?

Read the title... Was excited to see what the Fuze+ would be like...

 

Read the article... Am now disappointed...

 

I'll be keeping my original Fuze until it dies. I love it... even if my friends don't really like it since they're used to iPods.

Lol.  I guess that means it will sound better than the last Sansas that had flat RMAA graphs.

Damn the price actually looks pretty good.

Too bad it had to come with capacitive touch controls.
