Buying Cheap mp3 / mp4 Players… Is it Worth it???

December 21st, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Press Releases

Many people are cautious about buying ‘cheap mp3 players, or a cheap mp4 player. This causes people to stick closely to the big name brands they know and trust, but are they loosing out because of this?
 

Can a Cheap MP4 Player be Any Good?


 
Some cheap mp3/4 players really are abismal, many even go as far as tricking purchaser by tweaking the chip inside them to falsly display their memory capacity (and guess what folks, they tweak them the to appear bigger than they are, not smaller).
 
There are some exceptions, of course…
 
Onda mp4 players are actually made to a high standard, and are also significantly cheaper than the top name brands that you will find on the high street.
 
Just for example, the Onda vx747 has a touch screen display, can play almost any music file format (which in itself is much better than the so called ‘top brand’ models). The vx747 also playes most video formats.
 

How to Onda mp4 Players Differ?


 
Onda mp4 players differ from other cheap mp3/4 players mainly in build quality and functionality. We already mentioned the funcionality side of this, so all that is really left to say is that Onda mp4 players are made to a very high standard, and have recieved many good reviews.
 

Wher to Buy Onda Players


 
So, we have mentioned a good quality yet cheap mp3/4 player, but where do you buy them from? – It is unlikely you will see them in any highstreet any time soon, so you are left with buying them online.
 
Be careful where you buy them from. Try to go for a UK based website, one that also has a secure payment system, such as Google Checkout, for example.
 
It may be wise to avoid buying direct from China or Japan, for fear of getting stung.

Caution Advised When Buying Cheap mp3 or mp4 Players…

November 29th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Press Releases

 
Top brand mp3 or mp4 players can be rather expensive, this causes many people to look for cheaper alternatives as, lets face it, we all love listening to music!
 
Problems can arise though, when people opt for a deal that sounds too good to be true.
 
It is reported, for example, that every day on ebay 1000′s of fake mp3/mp4 players are being sold.(source )
 
While these mp3 / mp4 players may seem like a bargin at first, some units have reportadly had their storage capacity falsly advertised, possibly by having their chips hacked and manipulated to appear that they to have a larger capacity than they do.
 
Often the buyer doesn’t realise they have been scammed until it is too late.
 

Where to Safely Buy Cheap mp3 and mp4 players

 

It is possible to buy good quality, cheap mp3 or mp4 players if you know what to look out for. For example, choosing a brand that, although not that well known in the UK is known for producing quality products in other countries is a good start.
 
Onda are a make that are thought by many informed consumer to be one of the better mp3/mp4 players on the import market.
 

 
Onda produce high quality players, with varying storage capacities and functionality.
 
One of the players reported as being popular is the onda VX747 . This unit has 8gb of storage capacity as standard, and the ability to uprage by a further 32gb via the Micro SD expansion slot.
 
As this unit is an mp4 player, not only can you play the mp3 music format (well, just about any music format to be honest!) – but the playback of video is also supported. (Again, just about any format you can think of).
 

UK Based mp4 Player Websites

 
It is well worth considering buying your mp3/mp4 player direct from a UK based website, that offers a secure payment system (such as Google Checkout). This would, perhaps, give you a bit more protection as a consumer.
 
Many people also advise checking the ‘about us’ or ‘contact us’ pages of websites you intend purchasing goods from to ensure they have a UK company number.
