The Archos 15 Vision MP3 Player is a slim, 4GB player that does more than just play music. The 15 Vision is a true multi-tasker that also happens to be extremely budget-friendly. Listen to your digital music files and the FM radio. Watch videos and view photos. Read text, and record the FM radio or voice memos. And because the 15 Vision is so lightweight - it weighs less than an ounce - it'll fit right in your pocket or bag without weighing you down.
The 15 Vision features a 1.5" color display screen and a touch sensitive control surface. Scroll through menus, photos, and more all with one finger. The player's 4GB capacity allows you to hold up to 2,000 songs (depending on amount of other stored content) to the internal flash memory. MP3, WMA (non-protected), WAV, FLAC, and APE music formats are all compatible. When it comes to video formats the 15 Vision works with MPEG4 AVI files; while compatible photo formats include JPEG and BMP. The battery lasts up to 10 hours before needing recharging and the 15 Vision is Windows, Mac, and Linux (in mass storage mode) compatible.
- Incredibly Slim and Light
- As thin as a CompactFlash card, or a cracker for the non-specialist, the ARCHOS 15 vision is only 1/4" (6mm) thick and weighs only 0.6 ounces (18g). Thanks to its slim and lightweight form-factor, the 15 Vision fits so comfortably in your pocket that you won't even know it's there. The ARCHOS 15 Vision has a 1.5" TFT color screen, just the right size for browsing through your music files, viewing photos, and watching videos
- Innovative Touch Keys and Intuitive Interface
- The ARCHOS 15 Vision is equipped with a perfectly flat touch-sensitive control surface. With one finger, you can navigate smoothly and rapidly through the menus and files to easily access your music, photos, or video content
- Listen to Music
- The ARCHOS 15 Vision plays standard music file formats such as MP3, WMA (non-protected), and WAV as well as the exotic file types of FLAC and APE. With 4GB of capacity, you can store up to 2,000 songs on the player. You can choose your music by title, artist or album. You can also create your own favorites list to play at any time. When you want to add music to your ARCHOS 15 Vision, there's nothing simpler. Just connect it to a computer (PC, Mac or Linux) and copy/paste your favorite songs to the "Music" folder of your ARCHOS
- Listen to FM Radio
- If you're tired of your own music files, you can always listen to the FM radio. With a couple of simple taps on the touch keys you'll enjoy listening to the FM radio. And for quick retrieval of your favorite stations you can quickly scan and preset FM stations. Additionally, at any moment, you can record from the radio and save it as a music file. Replay it anytime you want or transfer it to your computer or a friend's MP3 player. What a great way to hold on to the latest hits from your favorite artists
- Watch Video
- If you're a fan of music videos or of videos sent to you by friends and family, put them on the ARCHOS and share them whenever wherever
- View Photos
- It's always nice to have photos on hand for sharing with friends, family, co-workers, etc. With the Archos 15 Vision you can put your JPEG or BMP formatted photos to show off the kids, friends, and favorite memories. View photos one by one, or play a slide show. The 15 Vision acts as your very own digital photo album
- Record Your Memos
- If you need to remember something but don't have a pen and paper handy, why not just record your voice? Simplify things and carry less around - the built-in microphone will record your voice memos for future reference, making the 15 Vision a true multi-tasker

Comments about Archos 15 Vision MP3 Player:
I liked archos brand before buying this 15 vision mp3 player. After unpacking it I turned it on and as i connected headphones, menu went in loop and I could not use it. I had to bring it back and change it. In the few time when it worked, I realized that buttons were strange to use and there was not the possibility to make playlists directly from the player.

Comments about Archos 15 Vision MP3 Player:
create counter-intuitive devices. I should probably not be writing a review of Archos products today. I spent 7 hours trying to get a variety of PCs/laptops to recognize a 604 30 GB wifi. I finally went to bed thinking that since Archos is a French company, providing any kind of support is beneath them.
Altogether, Archos products are pretty good provided you can figure out how to use them and you never need support. However, if you are an "anything but iPod" person; iRiver, Cowon & Meizu make good products for price. Creative and Sandisk have started to cut corners drastically.
