T.Sonic 840

Mp3 players come in many different shapes and sizes. They range from small, light weight devices that can’t hold many songs at all to large clunkers that can hold all of our songs and then some.

Transcend is one of the premiere Mp3 makers in the world. They make excellent devices and the T.Sonic 840 is no exception. The 840 is a small, compact device that comes in both 2GB and 4GB models. It features a 1.8″ color screen and a 3-phase wheel which is easy to use. The 840 also has many different features that make this much more than your normal Mp3 player

Here are a few of the technical specifications for the T.Sonic 840:

• Street price: $99
• 2GB and 4GB models
• 1.8″ color screen
• Digital voice recorder
• FM radio, FM recorder
• 3-phase wheel

Things I like
The T.Sonic 840 is a really cool device. Despite it’s small size, the 840 packs a large punch. It has a 1.8″ color screen, a number of different audio features and a 3-phase wheel (like the iPod). I think the thing I like the most about the 840 is the fact that it includes a FM radio and recorder as well as a digital voice recorder. While most people wouldn’t be that impressed with these three things I am. Most other Mp3 players don’t include them and the fact that Transcend does means that they pay attention to even the smallest of details.

The other thing I like about the 840 is it’s small size. Coming in at just under $100 it won’t dent your pockets like some of the other devices. $100 means that even if you’re on a tight budget or no budget at all you should be able to afford it and then use the money you would have saved to buy your songs legally

Things I don’t like
My main issue with the T.Sonic 840 is its small capacity. 4GB is barely enough to hold even an assortment of your music. My music library is already over 20GB and growing rapidly. It’s annoying only being able to keep a small portion of your library on the device at any one time. Other than this I really like this device.

Pros:

• Small size
• Very cheap
• 1.8″ color screen

Cons:

• Can’t hold a lot of songs

Final Thoughts
The Transcend T.Sonic 840 is a great device if you’re wanting to get into the Mp3 market. It features a number of cool things and is small in size and price. If you have a large music collection this definitely isn’t for you. I would definitely recommend this device, it is a really good find.
