SanDisk MP3 player or Apple iPod - This is one tug of war that continues to rage ceaselessly amongst all music lovers. While some vouch on the pros of one, some just regret their choice of buying the other. And the war continues...Read on to know more.
A quick research into the sales trend of music players reveals that SanDisk MP3 players and Apple iPod are today the most preferred options among music lovers. But, when it comes to comparing the two, the task becomes very tough. In this article, I will dissect the most popular SanDisk MP3 player, SanDisk Sansa Clip and Apple iPod Shuffle and further compare them with each other for your benefit:
Design & looks: As far as design is concerned, the iPod Shuffle has this one in the bag. It's half the size and made of stylish anodized aluminum. Both are stuck in black or white land, but the iPod allows you to buy different colors for variety.
Format Support: When it comes to supported formats, the iPod Shuffle is a winner too; it supports MP3, AAC, WAV, AA, and AIFF while the Sansa Clip supports MP3, WMA, WAV, and AA.
Usability: In terms of usability the Clip is the winner with a screen, capability to make on the go play-lists, non proprietary USB connection; while the Shuffle has none of these.
Operations: The sleek and chic iPod Shuffle comes in two variants. However, neither shuffle is capable of holding the typical person's entire music collection. As the name suggest it has no display, no equalizer and no easy way to get to the 221st song on the shuffle, so basically you have to play your songs in random order. The lack of controls means that there's also a lack of any adjustable equalizer.
On the other hand the new Sandisk MP3 player have all this and that too at an affordable price.
Accessories: The Apple iPod has more accessories, but it does not have the capability of being expanded. The SanDisk can be added to with a MicroSD slot. In fact, you can double the capacity at a budget price. Further, with the MicroSD you can buy more disks, to hold a variety of content.
Sync support: Apple requires that you install their software in order to keep your iPod synced. Whereas the SanDisk can be used on any machine and synced with Windows Media, Real, or you can just put the music in the music folder.
Price: And last but not the least, though the price of the SanDisk Sansa Clip Mp3 player varies from place to place yet, it is always cheaper than the iPod Shuffle.
So for everyone out there the choice is yours, but whether you choose SanDisk Sansa Clip Mp3 player or an iPod Shuffle, we suggest you try online marts, as they offer myriad options. And moreover, you can always do a little bit of research before zeroing on the music player of your choice.
