Kaser 64MB Portable MP3 Player (YF10064)Brand: Kaser Binding: Electronics
piece of junk with no support [Posted on 2003-12-07] Purchased the player and it worked fine for two months of low use. Then it stopped playing music. Can move files back and forth just fine. FAQ's at their site are pitiful so I wrote tech support- no answer in a month. I just wrote again. If you want to roll dice and hope it works then go ahead but if it doesn't you are up the creek with no paddle and no place to turn for help.
Couldn't install Driver, No Support [Posted on 2004-02-18] Wanted to use it to record voice and then transfer it to my computer. Recording seemed to work OK, but couldn't get the drivers to install on Windows 2000 nor Windows XP. The manual is the worst translated Chinese to English I've seen in quite a while, making it incomprehensible. The Kaser Corp web site is awful and doesn't seem to provide any updated drivers. Tried to contact them, but never heard back.
piece of junk [Posted on 2004-05-09] The yo fun is a piece of junk. The UI for the downloading software is terrible. It eats batteries.
What a horrible piece of garbage. [Posted on 2005-01-07] I wouldn't give this to someone unless I absolutely hated them. Even then, I would think of something worse to give them that was free, like herpes or setting their house on fire. Stear clear of this "MP3" player. Don't be a tightwad, get an Iriver or Ipod.
Looking for a good deal? Don't buy this [Posted on 2006-06-25] I actually got this as a gift back in 2002 or so, a good few years back. Back then, it was my first MP3 player and I was satisfied. However, I soon noticed its shortcomings.
First, it only has 64MB of space. I might as well be listening to a CD Player that has the same amount or more space. The only advantage of this would be that the Kaser is smaller than the CD player. Yet although it is smaller than a CD player, it is certainly much larger than any other MP3 player I've seen. Its chunky and clumsy and feels cheap in your hands.
The earbuds are pretty bad as well. I kept the silicon covers from them, but I threw the earbuds themselves. After a few months, one earbud was louder than the other. In addition to the poor sound, the MP3 player would actually make a buzzing sound with any speakers or earphones. As the batteries died out (which didn't take too long since this thing ATE through batteries) the buzzing grew until you couldn't hear the music anymore or the MP3 player just shut off.
The worst part is that this plays limited types of files. I know it plays MP3 files... but nothing else has worked for me. Long story... but put short, it was me putting on a .wav file on the Kaser that caused it to break. Now it can't play music at all. It can hold songs and data to be transferred to other computers though. Haha... its like a super chunky USB drive. Anyways... DO NOT BUY THIS. It's a waste of your money. You will regret it.
