Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product... stores a ton of sounds...easy to use.. fits in my shirt pocket.. I plug in daily... the only con I have.. it's not Bluetooth...but otherwise just the storage space is incredible...

Small and effective do a great work I recommend to get the music the headphones they are bolony

I purchased this SanDisk 32 GB because it has the storage I need and as a replacement for a Sony which in my opinion is too expensive! This SanDisk player has a lot of storage for my songs and it has an F.M. radio built in. I also got a set of ear buds which are included with the MP3 player. I caught it on sale at Best Buy for around $50. The price was right and it's a great player! I love it.

The SanDisk Clip Sport Go MP3 player is amazing if you need something small to play your songs while exercising, relaxing or on a trip. I mainly used the SanDisk as an MP3 player and it turned out to be great tech. • The size of the SanDisk MP3 Player is incredibly small. It is about 2.5 times smaller than a business card! Don’t let the size fool you though, this MP3 player has 32 GB memory for storing music, pictures, audiobooks, podcasts, FM Radio, Stopwatch and Voice recording. The SanDisk MP3 has a lot going for it as you can see. • I plugged in the MP3 player about 3 hrs and it was fully charged. It comes with a cable that is mini-USB to 2.0 USB. It plugs into your computer through the USB 2.0 port. • I decided to use the Windows Media Player. You can choose to burn or make a playlist. But I used the sync feature to get the music on the MP3 once plugged into your USB 2.0 connection. I dropped and dragged my music onto the sync part of the Windows Media Player. Once you have completed your list hit the sync button and the music goes right into your music section of the SanDisk MP3 player. • I got to tell you, 32 GB is a lot! That is about 8,000 songs!! (32 GB is total, but software that makes the MP3 work cuts about 3 GB off) I have a large collection of music and chose some favorites to put on the SanDisk MP3. I think it took me about 20 minutes to make my selection and then sync. It took about 15 minutes to sync all the music from the computer to the SanDisk MP3. I thought it moved very fast considering how many songs I had to put on the MP3 player. • The controls are simple and easy to use. There is a back button near the screen, play/pause, left/right buttons for going forward or backward. There are also 2 buttons you use to enter and maneuver the SanDisk menu. You push the top half of the controls or the bottom of the controls to scroll through and select your MP3 to do what you want. There is even a DSP and an EQ! • Another great feature of this SanDisk MP3 Player is that it has a battery life of 18 hrs! When I needed to charge it, I plugged it in the USB port of the computer and it took about 3 hrs to fully charge. Not bad at all for charging. • The SanDisk MP3 player, despite its size, has a very readable 1.22” LED screen. The screen is bright and easy to see. It shuts off after a short time to conserve battery life. • It also has rubber ridges on the sides which keeps the SanDisk MP3 in your hand and not on the floor. In the top rightside of the SanDisk MP3 is the volume controls built in. Tap Up for more volume and tap down for less volume. I like the fact that they are hidden so I don’t change the volume with just a tap. I have to press the button, which ultimately works better. • Having a radio to listen to is nice. If you get tired of your music or need a break choose the radio section on the SanDisk MP3. • FLAC, WAV, MP3, WMA, AAC and DRM Free songs a few other formats are supported by the SanDisk MP3 player. That gives you lots of flexibility in choosing what you want to listen on the MP3 player. • The sound is good with the headphones included, but not as great as I would have liked. I don’t believe they are sweatproof either, but the MP3 player has a 3.5 mm connection for headphones. So I added a new set of in-ear headphones and then the SanDisk MP3 sounded great! An easy and little expense if you want more quality sound. • Included on the SanDisk MP3 Player is a clip on the back. It is very sturdy and tight, to hold on to your clothing while exercising. You will have no trouble running/walking with the clip engaged on yourself. It is sure not going to unclip with just about any kind of movement. The SanDisk Clip Sport Go 32GB MP3 Player is very small, compact and built tough. It’s all there, in a tiny package that is the SanDisk MP3 player. If you are looking for a small MP3 with options, look no further than the SanDisk MP3 Clip Sport Go!

If a cheap set of earbuds is supplied with this (magnificent, def buy it) mp3 player, just use them to plug into the back of the TV in the waiting room, so you don't have to listen to it blaring.

This unit is comedically small. It is functionally the re-incarnation of the original Sansa. I'd been using a Clip Sport Plus for a year before I bought this one and I personally like this Clip Sport Go much better. Since these are pretty much your only options I'll just compare the two. The clips on both of these are functionally useless. Put these in your pockets. The Clip Sport Plus Pros: -More durable (I'd drop this from 20 ft and it would be fine) - Fonts are much more readable (9-10pt) - Menus and song list scrolling are at 60Hz. Cons: (Oh boy) -The buttons are mushy and stiff. They don't feel good. - Headphone jack is in a terrible position. -The rubber flaps are intensely annoying (I just ripped them off) -UI is not my cup of tea. White text on teal and yellow? Why??? -Bluetooth is beyond finnicky and generally not good. Might as well use your phone. - High intensity (160 bpm+) songs get mushy. The Clip Sport Go: Pros: - Almost half the size of the Clip Sport Plus. It probably has a footprint smaller than your car keys. - Sound is better on all fronts - It is better in pockets. -UI is much more pleasing to look at. (dark mode is just better) - Buttons are nice and clicky. Cons: - SIGNIFICANTLY slower in menus. This bad boy is literally running 2fps constantly. Do you remember the 2000's? -Expect small scratches when dropped. - Fonts are really tiny. Somewhere between 8 - 9pt. Conclusion: It's definitely a matter of perspective which you like more. If you want bigger text and durability go to the Sport Plus. The Sport Go is slower and less durable However it is smaller, sounds better and feels better which makes it my choice.

-= Design =- While MP3 players have gone to the wayside since smartphones became mainstream, there’s something to be said for the SanDisk’s simplicity. It’s basically just a tiny little box (2.23” x 1.40” x 0.60” in.) with a convenient clip on the back so you can hang it from your clothes. The SanDisk Clip Sport Go is very lightweight, weighing just under 24 grams. The small 1.22″ color display supports a 240×240 resolution. Text is small but still readable, but may be difficult for some individuals to make out. -= Features =- MP3 Playback: Of course, the main function of this device is music playback, and it plays MP3s very well. Loading music is very simple: connect the SanDisk Clip Sport Go to your computer and it will show up on your computer similar to how a flash drive would. Just drag your MP3 files to the Music folder on the device and you’re ready to go! You can navigate your music library by Artist, Album, or Playlists. You can also shuffle your entire library, playlist, album, or subfolder. FM Radio: This is one feature I wish more smartphones had built-in. Sure, you can stream virtually any FM radio station with an app, but the SanDisk Clip Sport Go plays over the air station by using the cord of the earbuds as an antenna. Using the rewind and forward buttons to find a station is a little slow, but you can hold down the button to search faster. Once you found the station you want, you can save it as a preset to get to it directly. Audio Books: You can save Audible and MP3 audiobooks and podcasts to the Sandisk Clip Sport Go and it will keep track of how far you made into the story so you can easily resume it later. Voice Record: You can keep voice notes for yourself by using the Voice Rec function, thanks to the SanDisk’s built-in microphone. Stopwatch: There’s also a simple stopwatch function built into the unit if you want to time your runs. -= Performance =- Given that the unit focuses mainly on MP3 playback, it has one main job and it does it well. There’s no fussing with WiFi settings, installing updates, or dismissing advertisements. You simply power up the unit and start playing music. Startup times seemed oddly long, taking 5-7 seconds to “boot up” and begin playing music. This would really be my only complaint about the unit’s performance. -= Battery Life =- You’ll get up to 18 hours of music playback on a single charge, so you likely won’t find yourself charging this gadget very often. The unit utilizes a standard Micro USB input to charge. -= Some Things to Be Aware of Before You Buy =- DRM-free files only: Your music must be DRM-free in order for the SanDisk Clip Sport Go to play it. This would be music you “ripped” (copied) from a music CD that you own. DRM-free music can be purchased from Amazon and iTunes. Please note that this player will not be compatible with the files from Apple Music or Spotify. The exception is Audible DRM as that is supported. No Bluetooth: You’ll need to use wired headphones with the SanDisk Clip Sport Go as it will not support Bluetooth earbuds. No WiFi: You’ll need to physically plug the SanDisk Clip Sport Go into a computer to transfer music to it. You will not be able to transfer music directly from an iPhone. -= Summary =- The SanDisk Clip Sport Go does one thing and does it well: plays audio. Loading music is a simple drag and drop process requiring no extra software on your computer. Of course, this only plays DRM free music, so you will need some plain ol' MP3 file to fill it with.

Thing didn't even last...was using it for yard work and all of a sudden it just gave me a dark screen been trying to turn it on for a long time I'm charging it rn to see if it just died....nope it doesn't turn on.....i mean I've been careful that it doesn't get squished...not turning on....i want refund or replaced or needs a fixing

This is not working as expected. I was not able to download music.

This Sport Clip Go is small and light. I have included a picture of it in my hand. I tested the 16GB model. It is half the capacity of its 32 GB sibling, but still holds about 4,000 songs. Even if your library exceeds that number, we are talking convenience and utility here. Charge life is excellent. Eighteen hours are claimed, but I have not tested that claim to its limits. It will certainly last all day. It charges through the same USB cable you'll use to transfer songs, and mine charged up fully in less than two hours. I tried both Windows Media Player and MediaMonkey for transfer, and both worked just great to get the songs on the device with very decent transfer speeds over the USB2 cable. The instructions are sparse, but operation is pretty much intuitive. The earphones are decent, but not exemplary. They stayed in my ears but could not keep a great seal- they don't go in your ear canal. Given the safety considerations of using this player while running, I am assuming this was a design choice. Sometimes you must be able to hear outside sounds! The device has an FM radio which can be preset to your favorite stations. All my favorites came in loud and clear. You can also load and play Audible books which have DRM protection. I am not a subscriber, so I was not able to test that feature. The Go plays mp3, WAV, and DRM free WMA and iTunes ACC files. I don't use iTunes, but I did load some WMA files from my laptop, which I had forgotten were DRM'ed. Their artwork and information showed up, but the songs got skipped with a "file not supported" message. Album and song titles and artwork are displayed in the Go's LED panel, so that you can quickly navigate to the music you want to hear. You can record memos on it as well. I did not use that function. Do you need it? I look at is as an alternative entertainment source that I can use without running my smartphone battery down. Clip it on your waist and go. State of the art sound? No, but fine sound, plenty of battery life and great convenience. It does an excellent job at what it was designed to do. And at the price, it's not the end of the world if it gets lost or destroyed.

Like so many other people, I usually use my phone to store and listen to music. However, there are situations when it is much better to have a much smaller, lighter music player. For me, that situation is listening to music while running races. I have tried using my phone for this purpose and it is just too awkward and heavy. That is why in 2010 I bought a predecessor of the Clip Sport Go, the Sansa Clip+ 4GB. And I used the heck out of the Sansa, until the plastic clip snapped off. That was the one great weakness of this device, the fragile, plastic clip. And without a clip, the player is virtually useless. I did find a hack-repair for the old Sansa, which was to glue a tiny clothespin on the back (see picture, side-by-side with the Clip Sport Go). This hack works to a degree, but the spring in a little clothespin can slip out fairly easily, which it did one time at a critical point in a 5K, where I was rushing downhill toward the finish. The Sansa fell to the ground and I had to stop, turn around, and pick it up to carry to the finish line. So, for me, an initial important question about the new Clip Sport Go is, "How sturdy is the clip?" The answer is that the plastic clip on the newer model looks a little more solid than the one on the old model, but I would still be very mindful and careful with it. If you pinch the clip at the top, it should never extend too far. If you carefully pull up the clip from the bottom, you should be okay. Just don't pull from the bottom too quickly or unmindfully, because I can easily image breaking off the clip that way. A side-by-side comparison of the older Sansa Clip+ and newer Clip Sport Go (see picture) shows the difference in designs. The screen of the Clip Sport Go is much larger and nicer. Interestingly, though, instead of using the larger screen to display a more readable, larger font, the Go screen shows (in theory—more on this later) a tiny picture of the album cover. That's neat, but as you can see from the picture, the font is still the same size as the old model (very tiny). That means I will continue to have to wear my reading glasses during races if I want to be able to read the words on the screen. The layout of the basic buttons are the same across models. The "select" button is in the middle, surrounded by "pause-play" at the top, "menu" at the bottom, and "skip back" and "skip forward" at the left and right. The play and menu buttons also serve to scroll up and down in certain contexts. There are two big differences, though. The old Sansa model has a dedicated power on-off button on the top edge of the player, while you must use the middle button on the face of the Go to power on and off. It took me a little while to figure out how to power off properly, which is to hold down that button continuously until the player displays the name SanDisk, which fades out on power-down. The other big difference is that the Sansa has a dedicated home button on its face, while the Go has a dedicated "return-to-previous" button. I'm not sure which I like better. It might have been nice to have both buttons. Now, for my three biggest complaints about the Sport Go, all three of which are based on the device's behavior when I copied the Hamilton double album to the device. First, I found that the Sport Go displayed the songs from both albums alphabetically. Second, it blended the two album song lists together in mash-up form. That is totally unacceptable, since the sequence of songs on Hamilton tell a story. Finally, when I loaded volume 1 onto the device, the album cover displayed correctly, but when I added volume 2 the picture suddenly became a totally blurry wash-out of the album cover (see picture). Fortunately, I found a thread on his issue in the SanDisk forums. A SanDisk representative noted that the problem has been recognized and will be fixed in a software update. I can't tell whether the latest update has fixed it, because the update failed to install for me. But there are workarounds. One is to rename all songs with the numbers 01, 02, etc. I think that is too much work. Another is to create a playlist with the songs in the correct order and use it rather than the album view. Again, too much work. Finally, the best solution I saw was to use the folder view rather than the album view. I'm not thrilled about this, but it isn't difficult and does provide a work around for the problem of song order. Sadly, though, no pretty picture of the album cover. Everything else is just fine as far as I am concerned. The Sport Go worked great in two races for me this summer. The controls worked perfectly and I had no issues. I think that this player is going to last a long time. Heck, the Sansa Clip+ still plays songs just fine—it just lacks a sturdy clip now. The Sport Go lacks the SD slot in the Sansa Clip+, but who needs it with 32GB already available? It might have been nice to have Bluetooth in addition to the ear buds jack, but, whatever. I've run with both wired and wireless ear buds, and the main issue is not the presence of a wire but keeping the buds in your ears. I actually feel a little more secure with wired ear buds. So I think the Sport Go is going to last for many more races.

Love this little player! Relatively simple navigation. Bright screen. Great sound. Even the radio is good and, curiously enough, it has better sound and reception than the radio on my large and very expensive multi-function boombox. I haven't had this for a long time yet, but the current battery life is amazing. I fell asleep with it playing and when I woke up the next morning, I still had half the battery charge remaining. Great value ! And, for me, this is much safer than playing audios on a smart phone near my head all night.

The SanDisk Clip Sport Go 32GB MP3 Player is an excellent choice for those seeking a lightweight, portable music player that blends performance with durability. With its vibrant blue color, the device not only looks appealing but is also designed to withstand the rigors of active use, making it ideal for sports enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers alike. Excellent audio quality, battery life. During my work, I almost use it for 4 hours to avoid surrounding disturbances, and helps me to concentrate on my work.

They had a sale and I was able to catch it! I had a old ScanDisk and it had went bad after all the time that I have been jamming on it! It was a bout time to get a new one. I was glad to see that they did have 32GB and I was able to transfer with ease from my old one to the new one! I still feel like I should have gotten the Bluetooth and water-resistant one it was $10 extra. I definitely think that was worth the money because during the summer time I'm surrounded by water and it was much more sturdy than the one I just bought. Overall I'm happy with my purchase. If it goes on sale again I will definitely be purchasing the water-resistant Bluetooth one in the future. Once again thank you Best Buy for all that you do

I've had it for about a month now and I love the sport clip. The earbuds that come with it are average but good enough. It has a radio option and I use the feature and find that neat. It was a replacement for my old school 4GB white Phillips MP3 which finally decided to break on me... I loved my MP3 so naturally I wanted to get another. This one is a good replacement, but not for beginners it had no instructions other than to transfer songs from a computer to the MP3. If you never had an MP3 before this one could be a little daunting. None of the buttons functions were explained and even I was confused or had to figure the settings out by cause and effect. So the arrows are the directional buttons, the lined box at the bottom is like for more info for a song or options for it and also used as the down selection arrow depending on where you are in the menus or if you're in a playlist, the middle solid button is used as the power to turn it off or on if you hold it down, but by quickly pressing makes it used for confirmation and selection, and the volume buttons are for you know volume. Plus it only has two sound options normal and loud. If you're in normal it's for like sound monitoring so you won't mess up your ears, and loud is for environments that have a lower noise or liking loud music. Other than that I'd say pretty solid. Device itself can be dropped but I wouldn't recommend dropping it on purpose of course. I am more of a clumsy person and I bought it specifically for work because they didn't like me using a Bluetooth speaker. For any activity like running, cleaning, on the bus or train, seriously this device now goes everywhere with me. I love it! And as for the belt clip you can attach it anywhere as long as you test it and tug it so you know that it stays otherwise it will come loose if it's not sturdy, like anything. I normally attach it to the collar of my T-shirt or the belt loops of my jeans. It'll stay! I got mine during black Friday sales and mine was 36 so if you guys don't wanna pay like 50 or more for it I recommend waiting for a sale.

Very good for the price. I needed something to keep my mind occupied during my long work days and had limited options for mp3 players and this one fits the bill. It’s very small and light and I can clip in on my shirt collar without it sagging. The online manual says to update the firmware first thing but I just skipped that step and transferred away just fine. It was as simple as plugging into my computer with the included USB cord, dragging and dropping music from my linux machine into the Music folder on the player. No extra software is required as long as you can mount and view the files. Please keep in mind only certain music formats are accepted. If you are confused over which may or may not work just stick to MP3 but it does allow a couple other DRM-free formats. Pair this with decent headphones and you’re golden no matter how long work lasts that day. Just leave a spare couple hours to recharge between usage.

Love the radio reception, battery life, and 32 gigs. Wanted to put my itunes music on it, but it’s very time consuming.

Bought it for Father's Day for the hubby and he loves it. It is really small but manageable to use. Charge lasts for 2 days it's used mainly while at the gym so not constant. Adding songs was not hard and the sound quality is really good considering the size. The only thing I wish was better quality are the headphones. But all in all no complaints. If you don't want to pay hundreds for a device like this and don't need all the bells and whistles this is it.

I was amazed at how easy it was to add music to this MP3. It has a lot of space, and incredible sound. It’s easy to go from settings to video, music etc. The clip on the side is very helpful if you’re moving around. I enjoy listening to music on this player as I go through my daily workouts.

I’ve always had the Sansa players, and they have always sounded great and have been easy to use. Some people complained that they are too small, but as long as they sound good and you can see the screen easily, then that’s all I need. I do hope that they improve the Bluetooth on the better version, which I would not recommend at the moment.
