Transcend T.sonic 820

Great music player
Good battery life
Radio not good
Videos not clear
Other features just okay

PMPs come in all shapes and sizes, and the T.sonic 820 is testimony to the fact. Screens don't have to be large for a player to play video, but the question is, will the experience still be good enough for you to enjoy? And what about the additional features? Here are the answers to these questions.

Form Factor

In a rather traditional candy bar design, the T.sonic 820 ooks a bit like a miniature mobile phone that’s missing a few keys. It has a 1.5 inch, 65k color, 1258 x 128 pixel resolution, OLED display, underneath which you’ll find a host of keys for various purposes – including navigation, play/pause, skip, record etc.

On one side of the 820 is a mini USB for data transfer as well as charging, and just above that is a 3.5mm Line-In socket for inputting other audio devices for recording purposes. On the other side is the Hold slider. The 3.5mm earphone socket is located on the top of the player near the mic. It's an extremely light player at just 45g.

Features and Performance
The Transcend T.sonic 820 is a 2GB device that could be called the poor man's PMP as it also plays video files after they are converted using the proprietary software bundled with the package. Navigation, however, is slow – there’s a lag of some sort. But the interface is pleasant and easy to figure out. You can also create playlists for your music files in the player itself.

I'm not able to connect my Ts 820 to my windows 2003 based workstation. The device is just not detected as the workstation is unable to locate the device driver.

Even after I downloaded the latest driver I was unable to install it on my machine.

Is there any user who has used Ts820 with Windows 2003?
Can somebody suggest me anything?

good quality ear phones but not longlasting

a month and the retailer says no warranty for earphones

I have bought 2 of these. One for my daughter 6 months back and 1 for myself last month. Second one obviously after being satisfied with first one's performance.
