The Creative MuVo Slim 256MB MP3 Player is one of the thinnest MP3 players I have seen in a long time. It has a nice sleek look and is very small and easily portable. This MP3 player also features some of the best sound quality on the market today. At the size of a credit card and weighing just over 1.5 ounces, it is one of the smallest MP3 players available. At 256 MB, it can hold over 4 hours of music and has a relatively long battery life of over 15 hours. A handy feature available in the MuVo Slim is the FM Radio tuner and recorder. Some people just prefer to record their favorite songs or talk shows of the radio and save them. This way they can listen to all of there favorite tunes and news programs without paying for them or downloading them illegally. The radio is also a great alternative when it gets boring listening to the same set of songs over and over again. The radio sound quality is good although the sound quality may be slightly altered in recorded files. The MuVo Slim also allows you to record your own voice and save these files directly onto your MP3 player.
The MuVo is targeted towards business professionals but it makes a great MP3 player for just about anybody. The only complaints I have is that the ear buds are not that comfortable, but you can replace these with a pair that you like. Also, this MP3 player needs a USB Cable to recharge but these are just minor drawbacks. All in all this is one of the best new MP3 players on the market for those who do not have thousands and thousands of songs to store.
It is a great alternative to higher priced iPods and other expensive MP3 players as many online web sites as well as your local electronic retailers will probably carry it for around $100. From searching online, the lowest price I found was just over $75, while other online retailers were charging as much as $106 for it. If you shop around you shead be able to find a good price from a reliable retailer.
