Amazon.com Product Description

Chic, dependable, and ultra-intuitive, the GoGear SA9200 MP3 player lets you enjoy the world of digital music anywhere, anytime. The compact device measures a mere 1.81 by 3.45 by 0.35 inches (W x H x D), making it small enough to fit in a pocket or purse with ease. Yet its 2 GB of built-in flash memory stores up to 1,000 songs, so you can listen to all your favorite MP3 or WMA tracks while working out or commuting. And thanks to the 1.7-inch color LCD screen--which offers a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels--you can also share up to 560 JPEG photos with friends in slide-show format, complete with a custom soundtrack in the background.

The GoGear SA9200 is a breeze to control thanks to the sensory touchpad, which lets you navigate through hundreds of songs easily and smoothly--or one at a time--in just a few seconds. The scroll key senses your finger movements on the touchpad and adjusts the speed to your navigation through the menus or tracks accordingly. An enlarged alphabetical letter, meanwhile, helps you keep track of your position in the menu while scrolling for songs and artists. As a result, you know exactly when to release your finger from the touchpad. The device even lets you control playback and browse at the same time--a rarity among many MP3 players.

Another handy feature is the unit's PlaysForSure compatibility, which guarantees a wide choice of online music stores and synchronizes your collection easily with Windows Media Player. And audio-centric listeners will dig the GoGear SA9200's variety of equalizer settings--you can choose from classic, dance, electronica, hip-hop, lounge, pop, R&B, rock, spoken word, or custom--and the SRS WOW bass enhancement. Other details include a soft fabric pouch, a USB 2.0 interface (cable included), and support for ID3 tagging.

The GoGear SA9200, which runs for up to 14 hours per charge of its lithium-polymer battery, is backed by a one-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars elegance and long battery life.......2007-12-18

I am very satisfied with my purchase. I wanted something small, which would fit my pocket, at the same time something elegant and with long battery span. It is very easy to operate because of different sorting options (type of music, artist, album). This mp3 player meets all my requirements.

3 out of 5 stars Almost awesome! .......2007-12-14

I ended up returning this mp3 player, but It wasn't all bad. I'll start off by talking about what I did like about it, before saying why I ended up returning it. I see it's now $70 on amazon, which is a good price (I paid $80).

Good things:
1) I'll start off by agreeing with some of the reviewer here that this is probably THE most elegant looking mp3 player on the market. The blue touch buttons that light up when you press them are a lot of fun. The screen art is simple but elegant too. Easy to read menus and nice scrolling song titles for those long song names.
2) The scroll bar down the center is also a beautiful idea. A lot of people say that they find the touch interface too sensitive (including my wife), but I had no trouble with it at all. After about 5 minutes of using it, I was flying through the menus. The scroll bar can be used to scroll one menu item at a time, or you can swipe it to scroll very quickly down a long list. This is a great alternative to the iPod's wheel thingy, and I found myself just scrolling up and down menus for the fun of it!
3) The sound quality sounded ok to me, but I don't have a set of $300 ear buds to check it with. With my nicer Sennheiser headphones, the bass sounded rich, the trebles clear. That's all I was really after.

Now onto the things I did not like about this mp3 player.
1) The first and main thing was the resume feature. If you turn off the player for less than about 30 mins, it will resume from where you left off. That is, if you're halfway though a song, it'll star playing from that point when you turn it back on. However, if it's off for any more time that that, it will go back to the main menu when you power back on. I have some long 1.5 hour mp3s, so having to fast forward back to the same point in a track is a real pain! That brings me onto another one of my problems with this player.
2) Fast forward (within a track) is very slow! It would take about 5 mins or more to get an hour into a track. It seemed to have big issues with this, I have no idea why. I did a few things to try to fix this problem, first I upgraded the firmware (the software that is installed on the mp3 player itself), and I called customer support. That was another reason I decided to return this player.
3) The website for downloading the firmware was TERRIBLE! It was very hard to navigate, and the instructions for the firmware were very cryptic. They also don't list what has actually changed in the firmware versions, but I gather the only things they upgrade are the Vista compatibility. When I called the support line about the resume problem, I actually called twice. The first time I got a fairly helpful girl, who said that one of their technicians had taken one home and found the same thing, so it's probably a "design feature" which is not on any lists to fix. The second time I got a very unhelpful guy who kept telling me about the power off feature (it turns itself off if inactive for 5 mins or so, which is fair enough), and had no idea what I meant by the resume feature. He even told me that I could send it in, but it probably wasn't worth it!
4) The player doesn't support songs with special characters such as "&". What?!?! I spent quite some time fixing this issue on my mp3s, but when I got to Röyksopp, I refused to change their name just for the mp3 player.
5) This wasn't a problem for me, but if you don't organise your id3 tags (the tags such as track name, track number, artist etc), it will be hard to get the player to play albums in the correct order. I do organise mine, so it wasn't a problem until someone gave me some songs (legally, they were an internet mix) which were played in a random order.

So in summary: This mp3 player looks great! If you just want one for listening to regular music, not long tracks with funny names, it's great. The menus are easy to navigate, and well organised. Philips were so very nearly there with this, and hopefully in the future they'll get sorted with the problems I had. There aren't lots of flashy features, but I don't use the ones on my new mp3 player anyway (Samsung YP-T10 which I'm very happy with). I liked this player, but for my purposes, it just wasn't good enough.

4 out of 5 stars Pretty Good Buy.......2007-12-01

I did a good amount of research before i bought this MP3 player as it is my first. I knew when i bought it that it is windows media player 10 compatible and i have WMP 11 and was willing to downgrade just because of the physical qualities and the price of this player. However i just got it in the mail today and tried to downgrade my system to WMP10 as i've had it before i upgraded to 11 and dont really care for the layout of WMP11. My computer gave me an error that my version windows isnt compatible with WMP10. So, I started transferring music files to the player using WMP11 and it was successful. However i am unable to transer pictures using WMP11. I was really looking forward to transferring some photos onto the player so that's a bummer. I tried to copy and paste photo files into the gogear file but they didnt show up on the player. I will probably try one more time to load WMP10 and see if there's another way to load the photos without WMP10....

That is the only negative experience i've had so far and like i said i knew before i bought it that it needs WMP10. Now, as far as navigation is concerned, I LOVE this player. It's very easy to transfer the songs and the player categorizes your music for you and you are able to create playlists which i havent done yet because i'm still loading up all my music. The touch screen isnt too sensitive, its just right and really easy to use. The player is very slim and beautiful glossy black with really cool blue illumination which is one of the reasons i got it. The sound quality is pretty nice and there are several EQ settings you may use. The back looks like a metal finish sort of like the ipods but its a black finish not silver. The headphones are pretty good too. I wanted a media player that wasnt too expensive but didnt lack in quality and i'm happy with my purchase. There's a lot of hype around IPods but i really wasn't interested in its plain looks. I was also looking at some of the zune players but those too didnt strike an interest for me.

Overall, besides the fact that this player should probably be capable with WMP11 i'm still stoked about the product and cant wait to bring it to work on monday...

5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......2007-11-09

This is one of the best MP3 i have ever owned it hold a good amount of songs and sound quality is excelent. Oh and by the way the songs a very easy to download using Yahoo Jukebox.This is a must buy.

5 out of 5 stars Superior MP3 player.......2007-09-03

I've owned several MP3 players over the years, including two iPods (a mini and a shuffle), and this Philips thing is the best one yet. Really easy to use, superior sound quality, feels great in your hand and sits well in your pocket due to its light weight. Slick design, shiny black front with beautiful blue LED controls, and a smooth black backside. Makes iPod users jealous because the Philips looks so much cooler than their bland, generic, "everyone-and-their-mom-has-one" style.
