SanDisk has been paying Creative run for its money later, dismissing many flash based players who are not only competitively priced, but smooth and easy to use. Slabs against Creative ZEN, Sansa View is music player that can also be used for video as it comes with a decent size screen. The unit of approximately the same thickness, but more than ZEN.

The screen is 2.4 - inch display with a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. The quality of stunning images, video look, bright and clear It comes with 16GB of storage on board and there is a microSD slot to add more storage, whether you want. This means that you can hold 4000 songs, or 20 films SanDisk synchronised using its own compression software. This works well, but it is quite arduous, so do not expect to swap movies over instantly.

In terms of support, it will play MP3, WAV, WMA and very much everything that you can convert using Windows Media Player. When it comes to images, you can see in JPEG, and DivX-encoded MPEG4, WMV and H.264. Extras include FM radio and recording is also built. SanDisk claims 35 hours of audio playback and 7 hours when viewing videos. We found this little generous, and in some tests we were able to run the video for 5 hours and music to more than 20 hours before needing to replenish stocks.
