Add Rockbox to have a Great PlayerReview by Michael Loktu, 2010-09-03
I have great luck with the Clip. Great battery life. Not real happy with the Santa firmware. No file browser. Limited control. Add the pitch issue and the Clip is just OK. Add Rockbox software to the Clip and all issues are gone. Control for every player feature..sound, pitch, and controls. Rockbox for the clip is currently in a "unsupported" mode. USB transfer is not supported under Rockbox. When the clip is connected to a PC or laptop. The normal Clip firmware runs. I move whatever files that I want over the the Clip, disconnect the Clip, and turn the Clip off. When the Clip is turned on again, Rockbox boots...sound is great!

Review by arker, 2010-09-02
I also got a 32GB Micro Sd card. The good news- an incredible amount of storage. But be warned- the refresh cycle can take up to 2 hours!
Displeased.
Review by J. Edgar Mihelic, 2010-09-01
I have a Sansa Clip + 8 gig, which is a replacement sent me in the early part of this year to replace a prior, defective version of the same model. Now eight months later, this one has started randomly freezing as I listen to it (I followed all the directions on the website to try to fix the problem, and even formatted it multiple times as suggested, and there has been no improvement.)
I am fairly displeased with Sansa's products as this is the second one that has started failing (a mechanically simple device) in less than a year. I like the size and the clip, but either the software or the chips are crap. I want a new mp3 player, but I don't want to go through help and have to send this one in and wait a month to get one back. I hate to say this, but I think I'm just going to look around on amazon for something similar but from a competing company.
CLIP + is a CLIP Minus for Audiobooks!
Review by Careful-Shopper, 2010-08-28
CLIP + is CLIP Minus for Audiobooks!
NOTE this REVIEW is for BOOK listener only! If you haven't tried the regular CLIP for books, I recommend it. Books, unlike music, average from 5 to 14 hours long. They have to be chopped to 45/60 min files for downloading. These parts do not correspond to chapters. When you stop you may not notice which part number you stopped at. When you restart the CLIP and select your book from the Audiobook folder, it highlights the last part number you were at. When you select that file, it asks you if you want to resume or start from the beginning. Also if you are listening and are interrupted you can pause and restart. If you missed what was being said, due to loud noise or your boss... you can hold down the rewind and go back to the exact spot, even if you were at the beginning of a new file and wanted to rewind to the end of the last file. This scenario happens often when listening to books. That is why the CLIP is so great. It knows the difference between a book part and an individual song when you load the files to the AUDIOBOOK folder!
Unlike the original CLIP this version (CLIP+) treats each Audiobook part as a separate song. If you accidentally fast forward to the next book segment (file) you cannot rewind to the previous part. You can only jump back to the beginning of the previous part and fast forward through the 45 min or 60 mins to the place you want. If you miss this place and fast forward to the next part you have to start all over at the beginning of the previous file.
The tech support does not even know that this is a problem. I was told mine was broken. I exchanged it for a new one and it does the same thing. Even if you create a play list (they recommended that as a solution) it treats each book part as separate song and starts from the beginning of each file. I have tested this against my regular CLIP using the same books and transferred the same way. SO BUY THE ORIGNAL CLIP WHILE IT LASTS.
By the way don't use MEDIA PLAYER to transfer, it does not recognize the AUDIOBOOK folder, you have to drag and drop into that folder with your file manager. If you are using AUDIBLE use the AUDIBLE folder. If you downloaded library books with OVERDRIVE software make sure to transfer to the Audiobook folder.
I am a loyal Sansa fan; I had 2 Sansa Express's and 2 Sansa Clips, but this new CLIP + is such a disappointment! ALSO library books (DRM) do not play from the added memory chip.
SANSA why ignore the growing Audiobook market? FIX THIS BUG or don't market it as a CLIP+!SanDisk Sansa Clip+ 2 GB MP3 Player (Black)

Review by Helice E. Jones, 2010-08-26
I previously bought an old model Sansa; however, I really like this Sansa Clip. To carry it around is very easy, just clip it on and be on your way.
The only problem I had is that it stopped working for a day and when I tried to recharge it, all my music was wiped off. Hopefully, I will be able to restore the music but that was the only major problem. It was a little difficult to navigate. Not many instructions on how to get around the Sansa Clip.
