Archos 10 GB Studio MP3 Player Jukebox Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had my Archos Jukebox for a couple of weeks now and couldn't be more happy.
I did a lot of research into all of the players out there before deciding on the Archos.The negative comments listed about the Archos were: too big to hold, volume too hard to adjust, and battery life. Every review I saw said it had good sound.I ordered mine because I was looking for a MP3 player and was thinking of getting a portable hard drive.By getting the Archos I killed two birds with one stone.
When it arrived it was SMALLER than I expected.It is bigger than most of the other brands but not uncomfortably so. The menu screen is very easy to navigate through and adjusting the volume is not a big deal. In fact, it is very simple.I'm sure everyone wishes the batteries on their MP3 players lasted longer so I am not disappointed in that.Archos does include an extra set of batteries so I keep both sets charged up and haven't had a problem, yet.Changing the batteries was said to be difficult and require a screwdriver.The manual was a little confusing on how to change the batteries, but once I figured it out, I can change mine without tools.I don't like the headphones. They are the kind that sit on the back of your neck and come up over your ears.All of the features work like a charm. I have used it as both a portable hard drive and a MP3 player... both features work great.I run XP on my system and it recognized the hard drive right off the bat. I moved over about 400 songs without a hitch and haven't looked back.
If you are thinking of a MP3 player, and the thought of having a portable hard drive has crossed your mind. Look into the Archos. I would have given it 5 stars but the headphones aren't what I would have chose. Hope this helps.
