Great Sound - Very BAD Battery Life

byfotodude Mar 5, 2005
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Great sound reproduction
Cons No way near the storage space advertised. Very bad battery life. Difficult controls.
Recommended it? No

I received the Gateway DMP-310 MP3 player as a Christmas gift. Upon initial use, although advertised as a 256MB player, I could only download approx. 150MB of music before the unit would not accept any more data. I reformatted the unit and was able to gain approx. 20MB more of music storage. Upon... Read full review »

Not very good

Pros Small, neck strap, light
Cons Terrible terrible terrible button interface. Batteries die for no reason. FM is...
Recommended it? No

I received one for Christmas and so far not too impressed. The main button toggle does not work well (no it is not me...). A single button controls power, pause/play, fwd/rev track, and the volume. Sometimes when I want it to go to the next track it will pause instead and sometimes the opposite... Read full review »

Acceptable but not great

Pros Decent recording quality. Convenient to carry. Easy to download from, and upload to...
Cons Controls are hard to use, especially when in case. Uploaded files stored in randomized...
Recommended it? Yes

I've used one for about 6 months, for school and business.
It's great for recording lectures, and for making voice notes from my reading. One of my study habits is to listen to voice notes while driving, doing household chores, treadmill, etc. (I actually don't listen to entire lectures over... Read full review »

OK

Pros Size. Ease of loading music. Earphones are nice.
Cons Stupid thumb pad. So-so sound.
Recommended it? No

Not a bad MP3 player but the outdated DMP-300 it replaced is much better. The stupid thumb pad is unreliable and hard to use in the case. Mine has a habit of shutting off on its own when I'm mowing my yard, even with enough battery charge, that is the only time though that it seems to happen. Sound... Read full review »

Pros Nice features and low price
Cons Poor construction, quirky controls.
Recommended it? No

I tried one of these players as an alternative to a larger player such as the iPod (which I also own). Yes, I knew on the onset that these players were in a different league, and expected a significant difference, so please do think I am comparing the two. I liked the size, the features and the...

Will NOT play Audible.com media

byerathman Aug 20, 2004
1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Good sound quality Convenient design (flash drive style)
Cons Difficult to use controls Doesn't play Audible.com media as advertised
Recommended it? No

I got this player primarily to listen to music while I jog, and for that it works rather well. The sound quality is good, and I like the Flash Drive design.

Like others, I think the buttons lack a lot to be desired, and are hard to navigate.

The main reason I am posting this... Read full review »

In most respects a real disappointment

Pros Inexpensive for a 256MB player
Cons Truly lousy customer support: uninformed, unhelpful. Falsely advertised Audible.com file...
Recommended it? No

After much research I was delighted to find this unit. Small, inexpensive, and most importantly, the web site and packaging materials said it included support for Audible.com files. I eagerly opened the plastic container and started the process of activating the player with Audible.com. Though... Read full review »
