Misc. Features The range from the in-built microphones is quite good. It picked up my voice from over three feet away quite clearly. Playback is simple as the files are stored in a specific folder for voice and FM recordings. So they’re easy to find. The entire interface is easy to navigate through. I have to say the idea of the having a Jog-dial option was masterful. It makes it really to maneuver through the various options and even adjust the EQ levels. Another clever option that’s provided is the capability to horizontally flip the display so it can be viewed from any side. The device also allows provides full track information on the display with ID3 tags.
Battery As I said, the TX FM takes one AAA battery but the player really gives that single little cell a run for it’s buck. I know the Creative Website and a few others may have said that it provides you with around fifteen hours of battery life, but for the first time, I’ve come across a product that overshot that mark. The TX FM drained that battery of every last bit of power and I clocked it in at a little over sixteen and a half hours. Now that is impressive!
Conclusion As simple as the player may seem there’s nothing simple about the quality of sound you’ll get. Priced at approximately Rs. 3,000, it’s worth the price. The only problem I had was with the radio. But everything else was strictly Okay!. I absolutely loved the noise cancellation from the earphones, and I’m thoroughly impressed with the overall functioning especially the battery life. Now if only they would improve the radio pick up, I’d have given this a higher rating. But as is I think it’s a real value for your hard earned money. Go ahead treat yourself to one ‘o these babies.
