What PMP to choose ?

bledfeet · 09-25-2007

Hello,
I know i shouldn't speak about other players that Meizu, but i would like your advices

I am waiting for the MeizuM7 (or maybe M8...) who is annouced for march 2008, but I really need a new Player before , cheap and cool ^^

So i would like buy a new one, i think the new Onda VX878 is a good choice and cheap here : http://www.dapsta.com/onda/onda-vx878/prod_8.html (does anyone know if this guy is honest) for 91$ with pisshing ?

Or have you other Players to show me?

Thank a lot

(sorry for my english)

The guys at Dapsta have been making themselves known on the teclasters forum site, thay are very new to the market, do a search for dapsta on teclasters and see if anyone has actually got anything from him yet.

edit: there is a review on teclasters about dapsta, but it reads a little suspicious to me, like dapsta have written it themselves!!! - i may be wrong

read and make your own mind up

you could look to some of the stores listed in the meizume market place, they sell other items besides meizu players

Theres already a post obout the Onda, search for "Onda, Cool or Crap?" They say the touchscreen is not responsive and the audio quality sucks, but hey, it's up to you.

yeah, i think i won't order in Dapsta,

If onda has a bad quality of song... what player do you think i should choose?

MeizuM6 SL Maybe? i think a litlle expansive ...
Meizu SE ? I find the 4Gb Black for 99$ here :

Is there less expansive ?

Meizu M6 is cheap and awesome. Don't get the iPod, it is way more expensive. Other PMPs are too expensive for their functions.

Audio quality sucks!!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

mbarry you have been mislead!... Onda VX858 brings the best sound and image that I've ever heard in an MP4!!!
I am an audiophile, I've had a Meizu M6 for 20 days and I have an M3... now I've been listening my new Onda VX858, and I'm surprised by the quality of its sound... comparing it with my ex-M6 and my M3, which sports an excellent sound too.

The good sound comes from the Wolfson audio decoder. Concerning video, Rockchip have always bring a image above average, in a 2.8" screen it gets even better.

I have take some time to get used to the touch screen, but is not disgusting in any way, it just need some practice and use of a function called "bee", sort of "listen and touch".

Soon I'll post a complete review of Onda VX858 in www.mympxplayer.org talking of its limitations and benefits.

@OP: If you're any serious about audio quality, I would recommend the iAudio D2 as your PMP.

I know Cowon as a good Korean company. I've used since a long time Jet-Audio which is a software from them, that should be among the best mp3 players available for Windows XP.
I've tried too to buy one of their MP4 in my country, unfortunately they follow the same philosophy of business of Apple, selling at very expensive prices, I have no doubt of its quality.
If I am not wrong they deliver their products with Cresyn earphones, possibly branded as Cowon.
Blackstar...
What's the brand / model of the earphones of your device?
What's your opinion about its quality?

Check my signature, i updated it just yesterday. =P

Quality is excellent, although you're really paying for the sound quality and brand name. =)

If you were referring to what earphones came with my iaudio D2, then I'm not sure what brand they are, definately sure they aren't from Cresyn anymore, back in the G3/U2/i5 era they had bundled cresyn earbuds with their players but not with the new devices or so it seems. Quality of the stock buds included with the newer iaudio devices isn't so good in my opinion, probably on par with Meizu's PT800 maybe with a bit more bass.
