Seems as though the launch of Apple’s iPod has inspired other companies to launch their media players. SanDisk has announced its latest device called Sansa View.
The Sansa View features music, photos, FM radio and audio books, as well as video transferring capabilities. The player comes in two models – 8GB and 16GB. Users can expand the player’s memory with microSD/microSDHC card.
The new player from SanDisk features 2.4†TFT color screen with 320×240 resolution to view movies or photos. Also it boasts rechargeable, long-lasting lithium polymer battery, which allows playing nearly 35 hours of audio and seven hours of video. The Sansa View is also equipped with a voice recorder with built-in microphone.
The key feature of Sansa View is its thickness. The player is just 8.8mm thin and thus features portability.
The Sansa View can play:
“The Sansa View is a new video MP3 player that combines all of the great characteristics of a MP3 player with the video capabilities of a PMP, and packs it into a pocketable device,†said Eric Bone, vice president of marketing for SanDisk’s Sansa audio/video product line.
“What’s more, we’re once again showing that category-leading technology can still be very affordable,†continued Bone.
The Sansa View with 8GB memory will be available at the price of $149.99 (approx 6,090 INR) and the 16GB version will cost $199.99 (approx 8,120 INR).
