SanDisk Sansa FUZE FM 2GB - Expert Reviews

Review summary: sandisk sansa fuze review: Hey there, Nano killer! The Sansa Fuze has its sights set on Apple's skinny player, but comes up a little short. Still, with its extra features and ease of use, it's one to put on the shortlist.

Pros: Chic, sturdy design, Easily navigable menus, Heaps of features including a memory expansion slot, Handy Home button

Cons: Lower-res screen makes text menus and images look blocky, Dodgy earphones, Few customisation options

Review summary: Time to replace your aging iPod?

Pros: External hot-swappable microSD slot, excellent audio quality, radio

Cons: Bundled headphones not great, pause buzz

Verdict: With great audio quality and competitively priced, the SanDisk Sansa Fuze is a serious contender as your next music player

Review summary: A low price, a deep feature list, and an ultracompact design make the Sansa Fuze a very worthy Nano competitor.

Pros: Attractive design, great audio quality, lots of features, microSD expansion slot

Cons: No gapless playback, screen not great quality

Pros: Slim, compact design ; Expandable memory

Cons: Video playback isn't crisp
