 The U3 is a cute little mp3 player. For such a small and low-budget player, we were impressed that it played more than just MP3 and WMV, with ASF and OGG support. We liked the small OLED screen, and think Samsung got it right by including only artist and track data on the Now Playing screen. We hate Samsung's anti-Mac stance, eschewing support for the Apple OS on all their portable media players, but WMP11 worked well enough. The included clip was fantastic, and while we liked the color coordination between the earbuds, cable organizer and player, we feel the device would be better served by spending that time and energy into making at least a comfortable pair of headphones. Despite its shortcomings, the U3 is a device we would definitely use, especially while working out. Release: June 2007. Price: $79.
Pros: OLED screen despite small size, retractable USB connector, included clip
Cons: Uncomfortable earbuds, no Macintosh support
