 Nice little unit, but not so great for Audible users... August 9, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a reasonably well-thought out product that stumbles when it comes to use as an Audible player. It does not consistently return you to the right place in the book you were last listening to.
Compounding that deficiency is clumsy navigation: fast forward is momentarily non-responsive, then works at a snail's pace for 10 seconds or so, then speeds up the point of being almost too fast to manage.
I am still hopeful that a firmware upgrade can address these issue; the current downloadable one does not.
For non-Audible, non-video use, my only reservation is battery life that does not seem to be anywhere near that which was promised.
Four stars for MP3-only use, two stars for exclusive use as an Audible device.
 Overall a decent player June 16, 2008

The Sansa View 32GB has a few annoying traits, but overall it is a nice player and the storage capacity is great. My biggest gripe is the MTP as the default transfer protocol and it's a bit of a pain to make it be a mass storage device. I really wish Sandisk had made this a configurable item in the firmware/settings and while I'm on the subject, I really would like to see Sandisk come out with a completely new firmware. The View uses the same firmware as all of the other Sandisk players I've tried in the last couple of years. Music playback quality is great and the only thing I feel this player lacks in playback is support for Ogg Vorbis. Video playback is very nice! When it plays a video it automatically plays it sideways (so it turns into a widescreen player) and ALL of the controls switch (so that they are right-side-up) automatically (even the lights change to match) which is a really cool feature! Battery life seems to be really good, but I haven't gotten anywhere close to the 35 hours Sandisk claims (although my MP3s are encoded at a higher quality than their test). The player has a professional quality to it that I feel is lacking in almost all other brands (especially Apple's). If Sandisk would stop using the same tired old firmware and create something new (with more user configurable settings!) this player _could_ be king.
Love the View May 30, 2008

I have a e280 and like that one but I love the View. The e280 has frozen on me several times and often takes a prolonged period of time to access the file I want. I have not had any problems with the View. It turns on quickly. Moves from one section to the next quicly. And your chosen file comes up quickly.
The menu wheel is smoother than the e280. The View has a better screen. I like the distinct on/off switch on the side which also acts as the hold switch. Accessing files including external memory card is very easy. I have no complaints.
 Sandisk Sansa View--Replacement Battery (not) May 1, 2008
16 out of 24 found this review helpful
I recently purchased a Sandisk Sansa View 32GB MP3 Player for $350 + tax. I love the player and it has many very nice features. However, I sent an email to Sandisk asking what the procedure was to replace the battery when it would no longer take a charge which is inevitable. Their response was that the the battery could not be replaced. Sandisk said that they would replace the unit if it was still in the warranty period which is 1 year. I've concluded from their responses that it then becomes a $350 throw-away. I think this is outrageous. I would not mind paying to have the battery replaced but I guess I'm out of luck. I strongly recomend against purchasing a Sandisk Player unless they have a documented battery replacement option. Caveat emptor. Another rip off.
