Samsung YP-S5 Conclusion

T he Samsung YP-S5 4GB is available for the price of around 180 Euros. Of course this is kind of expensive but we have to view the Samsung YP-S5 as a multimedia player and not as just an MP3 player. The S5 does offer Bluetooth, unlike its predecessor the K5, which enhances the possibilities of this device considerably. Besides that the possibility of playing videos is a true valuable surplus. The only thing that is lacking now is a larger monitor to view videos better. The Samsung S5 has a beautiful design and looks very innovative just like its predecessor. The included audio plug is very useful for connecting the K5 to other devices. A small minus of the K5 was that you could only recharge it trough a USB connection and it was therefore in need for a computer, unfortunately that hasn't changed for the S5. Another small minus is the fact that the S5 MP3 player cannot be used while recharging. All in all the Samsung YP-S5 is a beautiful innovative MP3 player with a fantastic sound quality, through the earplugs as well as through the speakers.
