Samsung YP-P3 Haptic Touchscreen PMP Review

[news 28]

Everything USB is pleased to announce our Samsung YP-P3 Haptic Touchscreen PMP review.

 

Music, movies, bluetooth, oh my! The Samsung YP-P3 may not have too many bullet points over its P2 predecessor, but as we reveal in the review, just looking at the specs can be deceiving. Read on to see how this Haptic-enabled touchscreen PMP holds its own against discerning audiophiles, movie lovers, and those pesky iPod touch fanboys.

Verdict:

The YP-P3 has all of the major ingredients needed to become one of the best portable media players on the market but is hampered by a finicky capacitive touchscreen along with Sammy's implementation of ID3 tags and stereo Bluetooth A2DP.

 

Pros:

+ Great sound

+ Intuitive UI

+ Haptics-enabled

+ Native DivX / Xvid / MP4 video support

+ Supports Bluetooth A2DP + AVRCP, HFP and OPP profiles

+ Decent battery life

 

Cons:

- Bluetooth A2DP sounds compressed

- Capacitive touchscreen can be innacurate

- No ID3 support for AAC and FLAC

- Some album art incompatible

- Subscribing to video podcats can be a chore
