This SanDisk Sansa View 8 GB Video MP3 Player is packed with features at a price that is far below what you would expect to pay for this level of features and quality. First the screen is the perfect size for portability, it is neither too big to be portable nor too small to make it hard to view. You can download and watch full length movies as well as most other videos and photos. Of course you can download a tremendous number of songs but, for those times when you don't want to bother with downloading new songs or simply want to listen to something different, you can also listen to the built in FM Radio with presets. This unit can also be used as a voice recorder great for meetings or classes. This unit feels substantial in your hands and features very easy to use controls. This is a feature packed powerhouse at a budget friendly price. If you are looking for the features of an iPod video but don't want to pay the high price then this is the player for you! I would not hesitate for one

After about 8 months of use of the 8gb Sansa View, I decided I should write a review of my experiences. I did quite a bit of research and choose the View over the Creative Zen. My requirements in the video mp3 were to be a minimum of 8gb, cost effective, and radio (which ruled out any ipod). The expansion slot was also a much needed bonus, which was crippled on the Zen (i.e. files on the expansion card were much more limited).
PROS:
Good screen quality that is large enough in my opinion to watch videos.
Micro SD/HC expansion slot is fully integrated with files on main memory.
Being able to drag and drop files onto player
Multiple video formats supported.
Menu and buttons are easy to use
Sound quality is good
FM Radio can automatically search and save local stations.
Good battery life and quick charging (~2 hours)
Good size in my opinion, not too big, not super small.
CONS:
Limited personalization of menu
Playlist can only be 500 files
Can be more tedious than nessary to sort through

I've been using Sansa players for about 4 years now and have always preferred them because of how well they work with Rhapsody which I think is much better then iTunes. Having said tht I have been disappointed with my view. The player has all the features that I liked in my e200, without the mechanical wheel. The rhapsody interface is good. The biggest problem I have is that the battery only lasts for about 3.5 hours playing music before it is discharged vs. 18+ hours for my e200. I'm not sure what the problem is but it simply wont last.
A quick update, i contacted sandisk about the poor battery life. After formating and a hard reset, the player completely lost its mind and I am instructed to return it as it is defective.

When I first received my View the only issue I had with it was that it would freeze up occasionally. I downloaded the latest firmware, and I haven't had any problems since. Well worth the money.

I ordered the e280 through Amazon and their vendor sent me the VIEW by mistake. I had the option of returning or keeping it and decided to keep it for the bigger screen, ability to show long videos/movies, and longer-lasting battery.
Some people are concerned because the battery cannot be replaced, but I have a half-dozen devices going back 5-6 years with lithium batteries and they are still going strong, so it is not a concern for me. If you are still worried, get the 2-year replacement policy.
As soon as I got the Sansa, I hooked it up to my PC and used a file manager to pick out and copy 1000 of my favorite MP3s to the Sansa, then I used the Sansa Media Converter to copy over several dozen pictures and several dozen music videos. Even though I had 1.5GB left after copying the MP3s, I put the pictures and videos on the Sandisk 4GB MicroSDHC Memory Card that I got through Amazon for about $18. This leaves me plenty of space to add more MP3s, record speech, and record FM radio music.

Before a friend of mine showed me his Sandisk Sansa View, I was almost ready to purchase the Zune because I was impressed with the navigation, sound quality, and the heavy feel of quality the Zune seemed to possess. However, when I found out that Zune made you get Zune Marketplace and did not even work with Windows Media Player, I became disillusioned. However, I got to actually play with my friend's Sansa View, I was impressed with the feel of the quality, the capabilities of drag and drop from Windows Explorer (not available with Zune or iPod), sound quality, the same feel of switches and navigation, and the fact that it will hold other types of files as a huge memory stick.
If you decide to purchase a Sansa View, you need to do three things before playing with your View and installing mp3's. (1): Go to the Sansa site and dowload the media converter and most importantly the pdf advanced instruction manual (the manual that comes in the Sansa box is worthless). (2): Make sure that your

I am not sure why everyone has given this player a bad review. I own the 8 GB version, and I love it. I have never been impressed with the iPod. It's too over-rated, and it's not appealing to me. Although the click-wheel is cool, that's all that I like.
I also looked into the Zune, and I'm not impressed with that one either. I checked out the 30 and 80 GB versions of the Zune. The 30 GB is like a brick. It's huge! And it's heavy. And I don't really need 80 GB of space.
Then one day, strolling through Best Buy (or rather, Worst Buy) I came upon the SanDisk Sansa View. I started playing with the features on the in-store display, and I was impressed. First off, SanDisk has been around for years and is a name that geeks everywhere (like me) know and trust. Second, it's not an iPod. Third, it does all of the same things as the iPod, and it's cheaper. Let's compare.....
The 4 GB iPod Nano (3rd. Gen.) is $149.99. It plays music, video, displays pictures, has a click-wheel, and is kinda small.

I bought mine (16gb one) the first week and heres the deal:
The player is beautiful, no question. The size is perfect imo and very light. The radio and mic features are very nice, and watching music videos or movies is much more enjoyable then i would have thought, thanks to the screen size, vivid colors, and detail. Everything is crisp and clear.
But the player does have many faults that I found upsetting, epecially for such a new product.
There does seem to be some difficulty with adding songs, you can drag-drop or use windows media player to "sync", but personally both options are faulty. Drag-drop twice did not work when i tried adding a single song to the rest of the files, and the folder wmp "sync"'s to is not the same folder where you drag-drop to, so maybe its an "either or" type of thing. wmp would be easy IF (and thats a big if) u already use it to manage your mp3 collection (i didnt though.)
For some reason mine would not retain a charge after charging from my pc. I took it

Amazon is incorrectly using the product description from the old Sansa View that was shelved earlier this year. They should create a new product page for this Sansa View. This is a completely new product that was just announced by SanDisk a few days ago and will be available in early Fall.

UPDATE: It now looks like Amazon has fixed this entry. The product description seems like it does now describe the new Sansa View, which is correctly pictured in the graphic at the top of the screen.
I also want to add that this device seems to pack the power of an iPod Nano + FM radio + support for subscription music sites + MicroSD expansion slot for about $50 less for the same amount of memory. It's also only slightly thicker. Seems like a killer device, but I might wait until someone can review the quality before I buy one.
