Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 Player (Black)

Customer Review: Two time Sandisk user
Summary: 3 Stars

I purchased this device after I maxed the memory of the SanDisk Sansa m250 2 GB MP3 Player (Black), which by the way is a great base line product. I love the e280, however there are some flaws that keep me from giving it a full 5 stars.

To begin with it uses a SanDisk specific cord to transfer and charge. Not too big of a deal since the cords are inexpensive on places like eBay, but it does make a difference when "on the go" or not near a computer. Hence the reason I gave it two stars on portability. It is was not for the cord it would have 5 stars.

Another major gripe, only recently, is that I found out this player is not compatible with SDHC mini cards. It's a "recent" gripe because I just bought a SDHC card to expand my memory, but I couldn't use it. This is the reason the easy of use is rated so low.

Another gripe is that you are more or less forced to use Sandisk's converter to add movies to the device.


A few of the good points would be the battery life, the ease of use (not related to the SDHC Mini card), the size, and the sound quality.

Overall, I would purchase this device again. It's a great little MP3 player. I have dumped the Sandisk programming and added Rockbox. If you have not heard of Rockbox and you are tired of your MP3 player try it.
