How To Select the Right MP3 Player For You

by Clyde Dennis

In the last few years mp3 players have almost become as big a part of everyday life as cell phones. It is one of the hottest product markets going. With the introduction of several lines of players from some technology giants, consumers have more choices than ever. So many choices in fact that you could easily become overwhelmed when making your buying decision. Here are a few things to consider when buying an mp3 player.

Battery Life

It's important to consider your usage pattern when thinking about which player to purchase. How you use your player will directly effect it's battery life. If you will be using your player for short periods, such as exercising then battery life isn't going to be a huge problem or concern for you. On the other hand if you're going to be using your player hours at a time, like while traveling battery life is something you'll want to pay more attention to. Comparing battery life among the mp3 players you're considering is made easier because most manufacturers provide an evaluation of how long the battery will last under the normal use and conditions.

Size and Weight

Some of the smaller players have matching small screens, whereas some have larger liquid crystal displays. These are great and must be considered if visual quality is important to your usage. Conversely, keep in mind that the smaller players will while smaller and maybe a little less attractive will also weigh much less. So again think about how you will be using your player. If you intend to use it mostly on the go then small and light might be the way you want to go.

Functionality

Many larger players mp3 are now optimized not only to listen to the music, but also deliver an outstanding visual experience. Keep in mind viewing video on your player will generally greatly reduce the life of the players battery. As will almost any function that leads to on screen displays. Another key function to consider is the availability of a radio tuner if radio is something you would like to be able to listen to. Other popular functions include things like the ability to show album art on screen and things like calendar and alarm functions.

Accessories

The final factor in your buying decision should be to look at which types of accessories are available for the player you're considering. These could include manufacturer provided accessories or third party add-ons. Some common accessories are cases to protect your player against things like weather conditions, and an FM transmitter to enable you to listen to your player while in your car through it's radio.

Fortunately there is just a ton of information available on mp3 players online. There are even many web sites that do nothing but provide reviews of mp3 players. Use these sites and information found on them to purchase the mp3 player that's right for you.

Although the town I live in isn't that small, there still isn't a large selection of stores when it comes to music.
