    The P2 has a beautiful 3-inch touch screen and an excellent interface, but until its Bluetooth capability is fully activated, the player's most alluring feature is missing. Read more

    In a world where their hasn't been any real ground breaking media players for a couple of years, the Samsung P2 shows a lot of evolutionary improvements when it comes to aesthetics, functionality and performance.  This little 8GB unit is priced very competitively in the market and has a great touch-screen interface that is one of the best in the business.  I've played with the iPod touch and with the SuperTalent VideoGo touch-screen players and the Samsung P2 fall Read more

    If you're looking for a lower-priced alternative to the iPod Touch, the Samsung P2 16GB makes an excellent choice. It doesn't have application support, but it does what it was designed to do very well - play media files. The included software is excellent or you can use it with iTunes, and it has all the media format support you're likely to need. An excellent offering from Samsung, and a true alternative to the iPod touch. Read more

    The P2 commands a premium price compared other similar capacity players and rightfully so, due to all the packed in features like Bluetooth and a brilliant large screen. But I believe that the price premium is also justified in the quality of the hardware. As I described above, it is a well-designed and well-built player. Read more

    • Sturdy Design, Good Sound, File & ID3 Browsing, Multiple playlists, Lots of Features, Bluetooth
    • Strict video file types, Touch Interface, User interface could use some tweaks, Limited Playlists, No Bookmarks

    I bought this product , in-fact a P3, which is a higher version of the P2 about 2 years ago. The music quality is terrific, better than the IPOD, The touch feature is so-so - not very intuitive. But the hardware itself is substandard (at-least in Samsung's quality standard) had to replace the front touch panel twice, just months after the replacement , the player started to fall apart, now none of the touch functions work and I am stuck, because every function operates...
