you are looking at an unreliable 128mb mp3 player that costs 70. Erm... did you forget to put your brain in this morning? Look around. mp3 players these days are top spec, and the basic ones are really good value. You could get a 2GB one for this price. Put your head on, mate!!!
 Great little mp3 player for short walks and runs! February 11, 2005

I would just like to say that before the ipod we had these and then ipod suddenly bring out there new creation the: IPOD SHUFFLE - the design is typical ipod (64mb one is white) just it was made many years previous before apple...anyway after saying this I really like philip keys - they are neat and are just basically top spec pen drives that play music - if you want to look cool and not look like every person on the planet using an ipod hardware that requires you to you use "ipod tunes" get this its so easy to transfer music you dont need some compulsory nonsense sofware to upload tunes! uses 2 formats in wma and mp3 formats - only flaw with philip key is that you cannot skip through a track - other comments suggest that it would be good to have buttons on the device but its really not needed when you have them on the strap - I say neat with the flashing orange light (download mode) and green light (charge mode!!) old technology (hehe! dare I say old it is mp3!) that still rocks!
 Excellent - shame it went dodgy after only 3 months !!! June 24, 2004

I received this mp3 player, purchased end of March 2004, as a birthday present from my husband. Good stuff to say about it: It's super light, holds about 25 tracks, straight forward to charge and copy over mp3 files from computer. Plugs directly into USB port - no extra cabling required.Not so good: after only 3 months of use (sitting on a train to and from Brighton/London the stereo has kicked out. Will take it back to suppliers and get replacement or money back. Up until it went dodgy I thought it was excellent. Now, I've no faith in it working properly - Philips, you've let me down.
Do not buy this item!!! May 18, 2004

This mp3 player looked great. slim and made of metal so if it dropped it wouldnt break. BUT the buttons are on the headphone lead and after a few weeks one of the earpieces stopped working. i am finding it impossible to get a replacement set and recommend that you look for another mp3 player with the buttons on the actual player and not on the lead.
Not what I was expecting May 9, 2004

My old MP3 player got nicked, so I decided it was time for an upgrade. Looking around for players to buy, I was specifically looking for something very small. This player stood out in this respect, and got reasonable reviews, so I bought it.Well, I should have done my homework a bit better. Yes the player is very small, but it suffers from three problems: 1) No scan/seek feature (for fast-forward/rewind within a single track). As I regularly listen to hour-long tracks, it's a huge pain to have to start again if I switch the player off in the middle of one. In my experience (I've owned several MP3 players), MP3 players usually have this feature as standard, but not this player! 2) Flat sound. Very subjective, obviously, but the sound of this player was not to my liking. And with no equalizer function, there's not much you can do about this. 3) Controls only on earphone lead. Again, this is personal preference, but I hate having to use controls on a headphone lead. I sent the player back and got a Rio Fuse instead. A bit more pricey, but you get what you pay for (including none of the above "issues"). This is not a wholly bad player, but not what I was expecting. Frankly I was amazed at the lack of scan/seek functionality. But, if you're looking for a relatively cheap player and the above "issues" don't bother you, then this is worth a look, especially if you're looking for a very small and good-looking player.
