Comments about Slacker Personal Radio Player (4GB, 25 Stations ):
This is actually my second slacker radio. My first one broke from a drop so I immediately ordered this one and I got the 2 year warranty in case it gets dropped again.
This slacker G1 is a bit different from the G2. The screen on this one is huge and the picture quality is very good. All of the operating functions are good and easy to use. The battery life is good too. I can usually get a day and a half from it (listening on and off at work).
The thing that I do not like about it is that there is no way to clip it on a belt for portability. It is quite a bit bigger than the newer model. I would definitely recommend the G2 over this one. It is a little more money but worth the upgrade. This model is nice if you get the docking station and leave it on your desk.
Pros
- Artist information
- Auto updating
- Easy To Set Up
- Good Sound
Cons
- Buggy interface at times
- Kinda cheap build quality
- Not true touchscreen
Best Uses
- Broaden music horizons
- In the car
Comments about Slacker Personal Radio Player (4GB, 25 Stations ):
I purchased this player because I wanted to find some new artists without a lot of work, which this is perfect for. Punch in your WiFi password, and it goes and fetches it's own music. Beautiful.
I like how it displays information about the artist currently playing, and you can favorite or ban certain tracks.
The music selection is pretty good thus far, and categorized well.
The firmware is a bit buggy, and does some strange things once in awhile, but you can deal with it. I would recommend this player if you want to find some new music, or don't want to spend time and money seeking out mp3s.
