PUTTING THE “MULTI” IN MULTIMEDIA

We call it an MP3 player, but it’s much more than that. It allows you to view pictures, text, and videos and listen to FM radio. The built-in Bluetooth wireless technology turns your MP3 player into your own personal network.

TOUCH NAVIGATION!

You can tap on the touch pad to navigate through the menus.

LONGER PLAY TIME AND SHORTER DOWNLOADING!

A fully charged battery can play up to 24 hours of music or 4 hours of video(when using the earphone). Download times are shorter. Because of its USB 2.0 capability, the player is much faster than models with USB 1.1.
