Names like the Apple iPod, Creative, iRiver are synonymous with 'MP3 Player'. But the question you need to ask yourself is this – 'Is it worth the price considering the features?'

If you’re looking for a non-complicated Mp3/Radio with a low budget, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised with Wespro’s new WK512S MP3 player. It has just the right features for just the right price.

Design
The WK512 looks like a miniaturized version Sony Ericsson’s W550i Walkman phone. It comes in 2 colors – Black and White. Its oval design makes it really easy to carry around with you (no edges to tear your pockets). A 5 way navigation pad in front helps simplify your file browsing. It can be used for controlling the volume, scrolling through the menus and changing tracks. The hold and other settings keys are located on the top and although they’re a bit close to one another they are easy enough to manipulate.

The WK512 is an extremely lightweight player, so light, in fact, it seems like it’s just an empty shell. It’s just under 45gms. So all you fitness freaks out there, this is just perfect for you. It’s practically no added weight to your person at all.

The WK512 has a small but clear OLED, dual color display (blue and yellow). Its cuteness quotient is also up there with the iPods of this world.

Now here is where it gets interesting. The WK512’s main and sub menus are easy to maneuver through using the 5 way, joystick styled navigation pad. There are plenty of settings to make for a pleasant listening experience.
