For an optimal experience with your Clip Jam, SanDisk recommends that you update your Firmware with each new release. It’s fast, easy, and free! SanDisk has produced a number of flash memory-based digital audio and portable media players since 2005. The current range of products bears the SanDisk Clip name. SanDisk players were formerly marketed under the Sansa name until 2014. This new firmware has various enhancements and bug fixes, including key fixes listed below. Upon completion of the firmware upgrade, the device will turn off; power on the device to complete the upgrade process.

Anything but iPod. Archived from the original on June 2, 2012. {{ cite web}}: CS1 maint: unfit URL ( link) One of the best features of the Clip Jam is its wide variety of supported file formats, including MP3, WMA (NO DRM), AAC, WAV, and Audible (DRM only). All of these come through crystal-clear, thanks in part to a strong equalizer in the Settings menu. Whether we were listening to music, podcasts, or an audiobook, everything came through with no distortion or tinniness. Our major concern initially was the FM radio mode, as these onboard radio options usually don’t sound great. We’re happy to report that the Clip Jam’s radio came through loud and clear, even if we wish it had the ability to do AM radio. Battery Life: Keeps going, and goingde Icaza, Miguel – Miguel de Icaza's web log (January 17, 2007). "Mono-based device wins Best-of-Show at CES". The thing is, the m3u format has been around for 20 years or so, it’s a well-established standard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M3U Providing a more versatile, durable product is H20 Audio with their Stream waterproof MP3 player. Similar in shape and size to the Clip Jam, the Stream hangs on tighter and better to your body than the SanDisk device, but comes at the trade-off of less robust sound and a lower overall volume. Of the three we used during our regular workout routine, the Clip Jam provided the least amount of problems and worry, thanks in part to its lightweight and long battery life. In a hex viewer you can see the difference. In the top line of dark blue, in the 3rd section you see a 0A line end. That’s Linux. In the bottom viewer is the same file converted to DOS line ends, the 0A has been replaced by 0D 0A. This playlist now works fine in my ClipJam.

In a world of overpriced MP3 players that want to extol the virtues of every feature they possess, it’s sometimes refreshing to have some simplicity. The Clip Jam MP3 Player from SanDisk is one such device, with an unassuming form and a downright bargain bin look. The tiny device has some of the highest potential onboard memory around, not to mention a battery life of near 20 hours. Add in some runner-friendly features such as an FM radio and a lightweight build, and you have the makings for one of the best budget MP3 players available. Success at last with playlists on Micro SDHC card". SanDisk Forums. January 28, 2012 . Retrieved October 11, 2023.The Clip Sport Plus was released in 2016, and is the first SanDisk MP3 player to add Bluetooth capabilities and water resistance. It does not have a MicroSD card slot. Despite MP3 players seeming like dated technology, there’s some competition in the market. The Sony Walkman NW-WS623 wireless headset is an expensive, feature-rich device that is sometimes more trouble than it’s worth due to uncomfortable earbuds and a short cord. The high price tag might be hard to swallow for those that just want a tiny device like the Clip Jam that they can use and abuse. Yet made in Linux they don’t work, I’m guessing they don’t from a Mac either. Maybe they need to have DOS line ends instead of unix or Mac . I’m in Linux with nothing handy to try that with.

The budget price of the Clip Jam clearly comes from the fact that the device is made with cheap plastic. Likewise, the face buttons are finished in a matte coating that’s prone to scuffs and scrapes. After only a few uses ours was scratched up.Stenberg, Daniel. "SanDisk Sansa Series v2". Archived from the original on January 23, 2009 . Retrieved December 22, 2007.
