Conclusion

When summarising an MP3 player there are really only a few points which are important. So we will take them in turn.

Is it easy to use?
Absolutely. As with all new devices there is a period where the user has to learn the menu structure and functions. After about 1 hour of use we found the player to be perfectly usable and the button functions easy to remember. The clarity of the screen and layout was also beneficial. There are also some nice featrues such as the sleep function which turns the player off after a set amount of time. Finally with regards to ease of use the player is recognised by Windows XP without any additional drivers, just plug in and its ready to use.

Is is compatible with widely available formats/software?
Again the answer is a yes. As we discussed earlier in the article the Super Talent player can be used with its own software and with Windows Media Player 10. Drag and Drop to the device also works for music (MP3/WMA) and any other file time for storage/transport.

How is the sound quality?
As with all players the quality of the playback is entirely dependant on the quality of the source file, after that it becomes really subjective and down to the end user. Having used a Sony player for the past year or so I have to say I was perfectly happy with the audio quality provided by the Super Talent player and something which was particularly good is that the player has a high maximum volume which is great when listening to audio on the train.

Summary:
It's small, its incredibly light and its a breeze to use. Additionally, it's very attractively priced. The Super Talent 2GB MEGA Screen MP3/FM/Recorder Player gets a Driver Heaven Editors Choice award.
