 Not Bad, But Not Really Good Either May 28, 2010
John W. Allen (Ohio, USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The concept is a good one, but the execution is not quite up to par.
The Phillips SA61 portable media player is one of those "jack of all trades, master of none" players.
It's music function is okay, if lacking.
It's video function is okay, if lacking.
It's picture viewer is okay, if lacking.
It's radio function is okay, if lacking.
I never made use of the voice recording program.
In fact, it's biggest issues are the features it lacks.
For example, with video play, your movies have to be converted over with the Phillips Media Converter, or 3/4 of the time it won't play. There are also no skip functions for in movie viewing, just fast forward and rewind, so if you're watching a long movie and want to move ahead a chapter or two, you can move at 4x or 8x fast forward.
The music function is alright, but lacks real controls as well. For example, playing a song is fine, but there is no stop button. You can only pause or play, and if you're not on the music menu function, you can't stop a song at all or skip ahead. You have to go back to the music menu, find the album, find the song, and then pause it or skip to the next song.
The picture viewer is just that, a picture viewer. You can turn the image sideways, which is nice if you need to do so, but there is no zoom, no other options. Just next and turning your image to the side on the screen.
The radio function works okay, there's not much to it but I guess there doesn't have to be. You can scan up and down the radio dial and save presets.
As for the voice recording option, I didn't make use of it. Your mileage may vary on that one.
Finally, the settings. It's the most bareboned settings menu I've seen in any kind of electronic interface of it's type. I mean, there are a list of options, but there's very little that you can really change. You can change the "screensaver" time, you can change your video and music playing settings, but even those are very limited. In fact, I would describe the whole setup as limited.
It's about as basic as it gets. iPod, Zune, even the first edition PSPs, these media players are well ahead of the Philips GoGear. If you're looking for absolute bare bone essentials, with just enough to barely get the job done, then I guess you could get this player, although I'm certain you can find something more feature equipped and just better able to handle slightly more complex functions other than "Play/Pause/Next".
Overall, 3 out of 5 stars, and I'm being a bit generous with the 3.
 Highly recommend this player May 27, 2010
L. Gehrig (Idaho)
I received this player as a Christmas gift in 2007. I have used it almost everyday since then and this player is still working. The volume control is starting to need a bit more than one push but considering most electronic equipment fails after a year or so I don't consider this a big problem at the moment. I have bought a couple more as gifts and they too are still running. I had to return one twice as the one i got off e-bay didn't work and i had to send it back to Philips. When the replacement was returned the screen was scratched, I returned that one and it was also replaced. It is working fine according to the person I gave it to. The customer service was easy to work with. The Mp3 player is very user friendly. The only con I can think of is that I listen to e-books and there is no bookmarking on this player. Maybe the newer ones have that now. I definitely recommend this player.

 Good player for the price. January 13, 2010
Bill B. (Chicago, IL)
For $60-70, this is a good player. Nice, large screen. The video conversion software is clunky, but works. The finish is very slick, so a case would help tremendously with not dropping this player and protecting the nice screen, but none is currently available. I-nique used to make one, but doesn't offer it anymore. Tried a different case for GoGear SA3300, but it's just too small. You will need USB adapters if you want to charge this on a wall socket or car charger.
