Conclusion

This is one of the few gadgets we’ve seen that have truly lived up to the marketing hype. In fact, this player hasn’t been hyped enough. It is arguably the best MP3 player on the market today. We found no significant faults, and were delighted and surprised by the extreme depth of the user experience. If you want a simple player that just plays your tunes, the T9 delivers. If you want a level of customization not seen in most portable players, the T9 also delivers. Simply put, if you are looking for a high capacity flash player, the Samsung YP-T9 is what you want. The competition won’t catch up for years.
