Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The S3 itself is a lovely little device, playing a decent number of AV formats with a great sound and video quality. The screen is on the small side, but since I bought it primarily as an mp3 player, I don't mind that at all. The FM radio is great and easy to use, and i like the idea of datacasts (aka podcasts) a lot. It even came with a few games!
The problem is EmoDio. I cannot think of a time since I had Windows 95 as my OS that a program has crashed so many times. I've reinstalled it umpteen times, and tried every trick in the book, including installing an earlier version (Samsung Media Studio) and all I can say is that it makes me want to cry. I've literally spent hours trying to get media on the player using this program, and each time i click "sync" it quits on me. It got to a point where it quit everytime my S3 was plugged in.
That being said, you can just drag and drop music or sync it using WMP or Real player - but you miss out on a good amount of the functionality. I can't get playlists to work with anything other than EmoDio, and you can't sync datacasts in the same way. Moreover, since Samsung has some proprietary video format, you can't really use the video capability with anything else. Overall, Emodio has turned this from a cute and functional little player to a time-consuming waste of money. If Samsung reps are reading this, please please fix this horrible program so I can return to enjoying this otherwise great product.
