- Lock button useless - can be pressed by mistake while in a back or pocket
 

It may not be the biggest issue, but this can also be changed so that ''Lock'' also locks the buttons. Just thought I'd say that incase.

It locks the butons but not itself. Te player can be locked in a pocket, but a single press of the lock button unlocks everything. A lock button should be a mechanical one.

So, just put in an order on the 16gb version. 15 bucks cheaper than the 32gb.. but then i'd have to wait two weeks. 
And i'm not good at waiting.

I never unlocked the player by accident after a year of use, but its may be due to the protection "Ringke" I use with it.

Anyway it's not a phone and the only risk is to drain the battery in my humble opinion.

I know there is no risk apart from battery drain, but still believe to be a design flaw.

A minor one imo. Have had the player for well over a year, never once accidentally unlocked it. And mechanical locks aren't perfect either, as they can be moved while inside a pocket as well. I've actually unlocked my D2 before, but not my J3. Perhaps the button locking system works better for me. Granted, the iPod locking mechanism was perfect, solid and hard to undo by mistake. But for what its worth, the J3 works for me, which is what is important. 
 
The USB force thing improves over time too. I had issue with that in the beginning as well. Or it could be that I got used to it... 
 
I also never thought the J3 felt cheap. I still put a Ringke case on it, but I never questioned its build quality, except for the usb port cover... That should have either been made better or done away with entirely. Everything else is dandy.

Also, is it normal for it to drain abttery completely overnight while being off?

 

[andrewberge]

Not if you've had it for a while, but the battery drains quick on the first couple charges.

So, just picked it up and i just have to say that the usb-cable isn't that great. It doesn't really fit and the slighest nudge disconnects it.

Edit: Righty.. just had to push it in with force. It felt like there was a stop but nope. No problem.

Hey, it felt like it was just about stuck there. Wouldn't want to force it in on the first date, would ya?

Cowon players are generally a lot better then a Sony or a Apple. Bloated bass can be good bass if you tend to enjoy hearing bass. Seems many grew up listening to what their father played which was no bass. If your music coming out of your Cowon sounds  so called "bloaty" then maybe its the earphone, its cable or you can use the power given to you and EQ the bass down or raise the treble.

Are you for real? I would really like to see how many of those Sony players you've had.

 

[lostid]

Are the popular EQ's of the J3 are software based or hardware based?

 

[bmiamihk]

Yep for realz bro. I am 45 years old bro and I had over 5 different Sonys. Also had Samsung, Creative, Sansa, Cowon, and the $800 Dollar iBasso DX100 DAP Player.
