Expert Review

Transcend has impressed us before with its good quality mp3 players that are more economically viable compared to its competitors. T.sonic 630 is nothing less. The T.sonic 630 series of MP3 players is available in three high capacity colorful models, 1GB (Orchid), 2GB (White), and 4GB (Black). We had the opportunity to review the 2GB (White) Version, so here goes.

T.sonic 630 is, remarkably, a very versatile MP3 Player that not only plays the usual MP3, WMA, and recorded WAV music files but also WMA-DRM10 (subscription music). Besides this, it has many impressive extra features, which we shall discuss later.

The first thing that impressed me was the look of the player. Smooth finish and good build quality was written all over it. And then I saw the display. Now according to Transcend, its white text (4-Line) OLED Display is easily viewed from any angle and in any light, so we decided to check it out. You can read the display in clear sunlight, which many players fail to accomplish. Besides that ability to be read easily, it's also very detailed and hence it's one of the best OLED Displays that we've seen yet.

Navigation is quite simple and hence very user-friendly.

Measuring only 73 mm x 33 mm x 12.5 mm and weighing a mere 30g (with Li-ion battery), the T.sonic 630 easily slips into your pocket, or bag or for people like me, it's quite light around your neck.
