AGPTEKIPX8 Waterproof Mp3 Player with Screen, Multi-Functional Clip Music Player with Waterproof Headphones for Surfing Swimming Water Sports

I have given this 5 stars, only because there isn't an option for 4.5 stars. I'll explain.I originally purchased the TAYOGO headphones - absolutely useless but around the same price and user reviews. Hopeless unit and waste of time and money.I then found this little bad boy. From reading the reviews, I was more concerned about the sound quality than the firmware update issues.Opened the package, everything is laid out in an organised manner. Bear in mind this is a cheap little device, so the instruction manual's translations are a bit off, but nothing the average person couldn't put together via context.Adding music to it was really super easy, plug it in, immediately recognised by my computer, transferred 20 files in less than a minute.As soon as I started playing the music, I was a bit concerned about the volume level as it was so low. There is no blatant Volume Up/Volume Down button, and the instructions give very vague guides on how to adjust the volume. When music is playing, wait for the screen light to turn off. Then you can adjust the volume by pressing the M button to increase, and the Return/V button to decrease.Getting the rubber ear inserts off, super easy. Getting the other one's on... kill me now. It's a bit fiddly, my advice, take some care when holding the headphone so as not to tear the cable, and just really give it some to get the other pieces on there. But, we are talking about waterproof headphones, it's got to be tight so water doesn't get into the wrong places.Whilst some have complained about the sound quality - I found it quite banging for a cheap little waterproof mp3/headphone combo. First track I put on was DJ Zinc Feat. Ms Dynamite - Wile Out, and I Was super impressed with the quality of the bass.Clipped it onto my goggles and set off for my swim, and wow. Just frigging wow.I don't use a swim cap and I thought maybe I should to stop water from getting in my ears and affecting the sound quality, but with a bit of play they stayed in super easily and the sound quality was bang bang. Being underwater and listening to music while swimming is a whole new level of workout for me. It is, however a super weird feeling. Bobbing your head along to tunes while you're swimming is weird and really throws you off your game! But once you get the hang of it IT'S AMAZING.All in all, you're getting a lot of bang for your buck with this little unit, easy to use, easy to charge, works straight out of the box and helps you go that little bit longer with your aquatic workouts.

A good little bit of kit, audio quality is sound and has more than enough storage to download a whole library of audiobooks plus music to last you days. Battery is long lasting, you can just press play, put your headphones in and your set until you want to turn it off. While the hard ware is good the system could do with a bit of an upgrade, one problem being that you can't make additional playlists to the pre-set three and you can't rename them from their original and similar names. There is a way to get around this however, when uploading your downloaded music to your mp3 player you sort them into files named as your playlist names then add your music to your respective playlist folders. To find these playlists, instead of selecting the music menu from the main menu, select the folder view menu then you can select your playlists from there. This allows you to have as many different playlists as you like plus sorting the music is far easier. While I do not use the player underwater so I can't vouch for that, I have defiantly put it through its paces and dragged it along with me on hikes through heavy rain, mud, mist, dust and sand. It has been battered, dropped and dragged about and still is in good nick. The one thing I would suggest though for future iterations is something to plug the audio jack while not in use to prevent any moisture or dirt getting in while not in use. All in all, a reliable bit of kit, but you have to be creative with sorting out your files. Hope this helps.

After spending £120 on a Sony one that packed up within months, I decided to buy a cheap one, so replacing won't be expensive.It's a year since, I swim roughly 3 times a week, works superb. Battery never really goes down, so I just charge after few weeks.Music volume is really good, the earpiece keeps water out from your ear. Storage is massive, my music list is big, but just takes a fraction of the space.

I absolutely love my waterproof mp3 player! Nothing beats getting in the pool with some tunes to keep me motivated! I swim two or three times a week and I doubt I would without my mp3 player.This product worked perfectly for a couple of months but then I did run into trouble with connecting it to my PC (as others have). I contacted the company who advised resetting the mp3 player by holding down the play button for about 10 seconds. This did the trick and I'm now ready to hit the pool again.It's super easy to use although it can take a little faffing to get it to your preferences. I'm not sure how the headphones will hold up with lots of use but that part is easily replaceable if needs be.If you're looking for top-notch sound quality, this isn't really going to provide it but when you're swimming I'm not sure the best quality of sound is possible. But the quality is good enough to enjoy the music and your swim at the same time.I recommend not attaching the main body of this to your goggles as I found my goggles were not staying in place as well. Instead, I attach it to the shoulder of my swimsuit and tuck excess cable down the back. Fair warning, the cable is quite long! The headphones proper can be attached to the goggles strap without consequence.I can't recommend this product enough!

Really neat little gadget. I use it for swimming but I don't actually put it in the water, instead I use the handy clip on the side to pin it in my hair to keep it dry. The music is good quality and easy enough to use overall, but a few days ago it kept freezing for no reason. I've restarted it so many times but now it refuses to play music at all. Less than a month old! I will come back to this review once I've heard back from the seller about getting a replacement.
