5.0 out of 5 stars Best MP3/Headphone combo for the money on the market.
I have given this 5 stars, only because there isn't an option for 4.5 stars. I'll explain.I originally purchased the TAYOGO headphones - absolutely useless but around the same price and user reviews. Hopeless unit and waste of time and money.I then found this little bad boy. From reading the reviews, I was more concerned about the sound quality than the firmware update issues.Opened the package, everything is laid out in an organised manner. Bear in mind this is a cheap little device, so the instruction manual's translations are a bit off, but nothing the average person couldn't put together via context.Adding music to it was really super easy, plug it in, immediately recognised by my computer, transferred 20 files in less than a minute.As soon as I started playing the music, I was a bit concerned about the volume level as it was so low. There is no blatant Volume Up/Volume Down button, and the instructions give very vague guides on how to adjust the volume. When music is playing, wait for the screen light to turn off. Then you can adjust the volume by pressing the M button to increase, and the Return/V button to decrease.Getting the rubber ear inserts off, super easy. Getting the other one's on... kill me now. It's a bit fiddly, my advice, take some care when holding the headphone so as not to tear the cable, and just really give it some to get the other pieces on there. But, we are talking about waterproof headphones, it's got to be tight so water doesn't get into the wrong places.Whilst some have complained about the sound quality - I found it quite banging for a cheap little waterproof mp3/headphone combo. First track I put on was DJ Zinc Feat. Ms Dynamite - Wile Out, and I Was super impressed with the quality of the bass.Clipped it onto my goggles and set off for my swim, and wow. Just frigging wow.I don't use a swim cap and I thought maybe I should to stop water from getting in my ears and affecting the sound quality, but with a bit of play they stayed in super easily and the sound quality was bang bang. Being underwater and listening to music while swimming is a whole new level of workout for me. It is, however a super weird feeling. Bobbing your head along to tunes while you're swimming is weird and really throws you off your game! But once you get the hang of it IT'S AMAZING.All in all, you're getting a lot of bang for your buck with this little unit, easy to use, easy to charge, works straight out of the box and helps you go that little bit longer with your aquatic workouts.
4.0 out of 5 stars Rugged and reliable
A good little bit of kit, audio quality is sound and has more than enough storage to download a whole library of audiobooks plus music to last you days. Battery is long lasting, you can just press play, put your headphones in and your set until you want to turn it off. While the hard ware is good the system could do with a bit of an upgrade, one problem being that you can't make additional playlists to the pre-set three and you can't rename them from their original and similar names. There is a way to get around this however, when uploading your downloaded music to your mp3 player you sort them into files named as your playlist names then add your music to your respective playlist folders. To find these playlists, instead of selecting the music menu from the main menu, select the folder view menu then you can select your playlists from there. This allows you to have as many different playlists as you like plus sorting the music is far easier. While I do not use the player underwater so I can't vouch for that, I have defiantly put it through its paces and dragged it along with me on hikes through heavy rain, mud, mist, dust and sand. It has been battered, dropped and dragged about and still is in good nick. The one thing I would suggest though for future iterations is something to plug the audio jack while not in use to prevent any moisture or dirt getting in while not in use. All in all, a reliable bit of kit, but you have to be creative with sorting out your files. Hope this helps.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic and easy to use. You need a PC and downloaded mp3s
I love this so much and use it regularly to make my longer swims pass more quickly.Transferring music is easy via a pc. You just drag and drop songs in to it. You cannot stream.Setting up playlists is too fiddly with the tiny screen but if you build playlists as folders instead it is easy to select a folder and play.The earphones stay in well. The device does pull my Goggle straps down occasionally it is important to get it centred and have your goggles right enough .For the money it is really good.
1.0 out of 5 stars It's stopped working after less than a month.
Really neat little gadget. I use it for swimming but I don't actually put it in the water, instead I use the handy clip on the side to pin it in my hair to keep it dry. The music is good quality and easy enough to use overall, but a few days ago it kept freezing for no reason. I've restarted it so many times but now it refuses to play music at all. Less than a month old! I will come back to this review once I've heard back from the seller about getting a replacement.
5.0 out of 5 stars Music
I purchased it few weeks ago for using it in the pool during swimming. The sound is excellent and clear. Easy to use. I still use it as radio, haven’t upload songs yet.*Plus it doesn’t get water in the ears!
2.0 out of 5 stars Issues with connecting to PC
Works, but after few weeks of usage it has problems with not being recognized by any of the computer, practically making it impossible to load any new files. I tested it on 3 different PCs and 2 Macs - all are unable to recognise player as a USB device.There are also some errors in the manual or usage, that don't necessary work with the player. For instance, adjusting volume doesn't work they way it is described in the manual.
3.0 out of 5 stars would be really good if the headphones were better sealed
you'll be very lucky if the headphones last a few weeks without breaking,When I say breaking I mean let water into them & gradually get more muffled the more you swim,After they dry out again they work ok the next time you swim, well for a few lengths anyway!Luckily Bolo are really good but AGPTEK just ignore your messages.The mp3 player is really good, nice little display & easy to use & put tracks on etcI have just purchased some H2O headphones for this so fingers crossed they will last more than a few weeks.
Saved my swim training 💙
Finally! After all the searching, reading and asking - I found it. This mp3 player really works in water. You fasten it was a sturdy clip on your bra, trunk, cap or goggle lining and off you go! I use it for swim training in pool for approx. 1,5h sessions currently and it works like a charm. Headphone plugs come in different sizes so you can adapt to your ears. I tend charge it for an hour or so, make sure to plug the cable in properly before going into the water and thoroughly dry it after each session before plugging the headphones in again or charging it. Uploading the mp3's is super easy, just drag n drop. I will report back here if anything happens, but so far, this actually works 💯🌊
Super Klang.
Optimal bei einem Strand Urlaub. Sehr robust, wasserfest. Leider hatte mein erster Player nur zwei Jahre gehalten , und konnte nicht mehr aufgeladen werden. Ob es diesmal besser wird ?
Excellent MP3 étanche
Je l'utilise uniquement pour aller à la piscine, le son est excellent.Petit inconvénient le fil pour les écouteurs sont un peu courts, j'ai du acheté d'autres écouteurs étanches pour la piscine.
Radio y reproductor
Es genial ,pequeño, buena calidad de sonido ,a la radio le cuesta coger sintonías, buen precio y calidad,menú fácil de entender , recomendable
doesn't work with itune
I had so many audiobooks, I could not upload it from my Mac, nor I could use itunes. But it is nice to have a little display. I will continue to use my water prof Ipod shuffle
