At the end of last year, I was looking into purchasing an MP3 player. I did a lot of research into them and found that there were not many contenders that shine above all the rest. The two choices that I was left with ultimately were the Apple iPod and SanDisk Sansa.

I purchased this SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 Player (Black) about 3 months ago and I must say that I could not be happier. I use it every day and no other words could help describe it except perfection.

SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 Player has a beautiful sleek exterior that not only is very attractive, but also very durable at the same time.

The storage capabilities of the SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 Player are perfect for those people who do not wish to house their entire music collection. And my favorite aspect of all is that I do not need to use an additional program such as iTunes to manage my music; this really outshines iPod for this sole reason.

I like the fact that Maximo iM-490S iMetal Isolation Earphones are tuned specifically for Sandisk’s MP3 players.

I am now 100% happy with the sound quality from my Sansa! These iMetal Isolation Earphones totally block out external sound allowing you to focus totally on the music.

They can handle heavy metal bass chords as well as withstand the rigors of daily wear and exposure thanks to their metal alloy construction.

These Maximo Earphones are supported by a LIFETIME warranty!

After much research and talking to 2 proud Sansa owners, I decided to buy this SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 Player (Black) for my nephew. It does everything the iPod does at half the price.

The large capacity, FM radio and compact size are great features. I also like that the battery can be replaced without sending it back to the manufacturer.

My nephew loves it. He says it’s easy to download music, it sounds good and it holds lots of music. Converting files and adding them is so simple.

This SanDisk Sansa e280 charges quickly, holds the charge for a long time and has a good form factor.
