Product Description
The MP-C885 from Coby is an inexpensive MP3 player that also functions as a USB stick. So in addition to playing your favorite music, you can easily transport any type of digital file from computer to computer. It can hold up to 1GB of files, so it has plenty of room for both. There's even an integrated microphone, so you can use it as a digital voice recorder too. ID3 and LRC support for song and synchronized lyric information display Convenient integrated USB plug (with cap) USB 2.0 Support OS Support - Windows 98SE, 2000, Me, XP or higher, and Macintosh OS X or newer 3.5mm Headphone Jack Unit Dimensions - 3.58 x 1.1 x 0.75 (WxHxD)
Amazon.com Product Description
Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand but loaded with features, the Coby MP-C885 MP3 player lets you listen to your favorite tunes on the bus, at the park, and just about anywhere else. The device measures a mere 3.58 by 1.1 by 0.75 inches (W x H x D), with a removable end cap that reveals a direct USB plug for connecting to a computer (no cable required). More significantly, the MP-C885 offers 1 GB of integrated flash memory, so you can store roughly 16 hours of MP3 music or 32 hours of WMA music--more than enough for a marathon training run or a cross-country flight. And for those occasions when you need to transport data rather than music, the MP- C885 can handle that, too, with the ability to store JPEG photos, text documents, and more. The mobile storage function is ideal for transporting business documents across the country or serving as an overflow backup for your digital camera's memory card.
It's easy to navigate through the audio player's contents thanks to the high-contrast LCD display, which displays the song title and artist information. And as with the best MP3 players, the MP-C885 offers a number of handy extras, such as a built-in digital FM tuner, support for Windows Media DRM-10 online subscription services, an integrated microphone for digital voice recording, ID3 and LRC support for song and synchronized lyric information display, and a high-speed USB 2.0 interface (up to 40x faster than USB 1.0). The MP-C885, which runs on a single AAA battery (included), works with Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, and XP and Mac OS X operating systems and carries a 90-day warranty.

Difficult to navigate.......2007-09-07
I liked the compact size, easy download capability, the 2G memory and the price however it was difficult to store and then retrieve the files once they were on the device. Obvious you lose some functionality when you pay less than $30 for a storage device. All the files need to be set up before you download the them, i.e. playlists, favorites, etc. becuase once the items are stored it is not 'one button' friendly to scroll through the stored files. I have a Toshiba Gigabeat and love the ease of use, simple buttons located conveniently when walking or running and even driving. I bought the Coby as a gift for my sweetie who is a runner. I know we will be replacing the Coby for a device that is easy to use in the near future and use this as a data memory stick only and not for music. If you don't mind spending hours trying to figure this out and don't want to scroll through music files while being active, it would be a great buy. Also, managing your files requires you to have ready access to a computer since you can't sort once files are stored on the device.
A good buy for pennies.......2007-09-01
With the 1 GB memory capacity of my Coby MP3 player I've had just enough to put all my favorites songs and play them over and over. The size of this MP3 player is such that it is quite easy to hide it away, in case you want to enjoy it while attending important ceremonies. And if you want more variety, you can always put your favorite radio station on it. You can also record your own messages to use it as the best way to help you remember things you may otherwise forget (such as getting milk on your way home).
Junk.......2007-08-23
I purchased this product just a little over 3 weeks ago and it has already given me problems. One of the selector buttons doesn't always respond and I don't think it worth the time or money to send back to get this reoccuring problem fixed. I don't recommend this product to anyone.
Amazing little device.......2007-08-22
I've used this device for about 2 weeks now and so far it has been wonderful. Sound quality is excellent, FM tuner works extremely well, and the storage capacity (1GB) was exactly what I needed. And I must also say that it is a beautiful looking piece of electronics.
When deciding to buy this player, I was concerned by some of the reviews that say it is unreliable. I figured that getting all these features for 30 bucks was worth a shot. So far I have been extremely pleased, but if I do have any problems with this player I will be sure to update this review.
Everything but a charger.......2007-08-19
Works great but one problem. The manufacturer forgot to add a charger. You need to keep replacing the battery.

Great CD Player.......2007-09-22
For the price I paid for this CD Player, it sounds great. Sometimes Coby makes nice products. I would recommend this CD Player to anyone low on cash.
awesome little thing!.......2007-09-05
has way exceeded all expectations! this is an awesome sounding little player. easy to use, has a great big sound, great bass and no skipping, and thats a plus as i use it alot waiting at doc offices and other appointments. the only con to this is, it seems that the batteries dont last so long. however with the battery compartment outside the player it is really easy to replace the batteries. no need to open the player and remove the disc to reload batteries. I love it! thanks!
Lesson Learned.......2007-08-21
People who use Amazon are hardly the type who have the time to return defective items. this thing didn't work out of the box. So it cost me 30 bucks to learn to limit Amazon to books etc no Big ticket items ever!
Horrible Product.......2007-07-09
This is one of the worst products I have ever purchased! Operating instructions were very unclear and performance of product was woeful!
Review For COBY MP- CD521.......2007-07-07

Customer Reviews:
Not worth the money! .......2007-06-09
Had it for less than two weeks and the player no longer works. The player would shut off for no reason occasionally and then finally it had a total malfunction. Customer service only had one solution and that was to reformat it on my computer but the computer would not recognize it being there. Had trouble with switching between songs with the toggle switch. the headphones are bad to use, sound quality is ugly to say the least. You get what you pay for!!
so far so good.......2007-05-03
I have had this product for about 8 mos with no problems. I bought it for 19.99 at a local save-a-lot store. The pros, other than being inexpensive, is its ease of use and transferring music. my pc immediatly recognized it with no disc needed. There are a few cons but for the price they are negligable.
Don't waste Your time.......2007-03-09
The only possible attraction to this gizmo is the price. With that said it is still over priced. I purchased my Coby player from a local sporting goods store because I didn't want to pay a lot for a new mp3 player. I just had a really good one that I spent maybe $49 dollars for, stolen. And when I went to buy a new one they were priced around $80, $90 and up.
I went with this cheapo item and paid about $36 hoping that if I lose it or get it stolen again it wouldn't be a big deal. Now I'm begging someone, please take it. I used it for a few days and did not like the difficult screen menus. You have to scroll with a toggle switch several times just to get to a menu that enables you to play music. The toggling is not intuitive and you have to jar it several times before it actually moves once. The view is less that an inch tall and so you really can't see what your playing.
Long story short before anyone got a chance to steal this one it stopped working completely in a couple of weeks. I just took it back to the store for a refund of my money. It is well worth it to spend another 10 or 20 dollars and get a decent MP3 player.
Great for four months.......2007-03-05
This item was great for the few months that it worked. I liked how I could just plug it straight into a USB port to transfer music. I had just started using its voice recording function when it stopped working. I was able to record a lecture and do an interview with it. It seemed to me to have a good range and playback. I typically didn't use the earphones, but rather plugged it into my tape player in my vehicle. A drawback perhaps is that songs are listed sequentially, so it is not possible to select a menu, choose your favorite artist, and then choose a specific song from that artist. But, I didn't mind that so much. The major flaw was that it stopped working. The COBY screen flashes on and off, never getting to the point where I can play any music. I can still use it as a thumb drive to store media if I want, but it's a bit bulkier than my other ones. When I contacted COBY about doing a reboot, I was told how to reboot it, but that it was out of the short warranty period. I know that no device is going to last forever, but I think that I'd like an MP3 player to last longer than 4 months.
It's okay..........2007-02-25
Alright, first off this piece of crap will randomly stop playing. It started off when I'd just walk around that it would turn off, but now sometimes I barely TOUCH IT and tilt it to the side to look at the song and it turns off. It is NOT easy to use if you're a HOLD button person... if you have it on hold while plugged into your computer, it will not let you delete or add music, which made me panick at first and fear for a permanant playlist.
Also, the headphones that come with it are REALLY not worth it, they are really really bad, so go buy some nice Sony ones.
AND, the song switcher thinger is a little defective... it's neat, but you can push it down and it'll hit something inside of the MP3 player that makes the songs skip and be all crazy... so it gives me a fear of damaging the insides of my MP3 player whenever its in my pocket or something.
I think thats about it... I wouldn't recommend it, unless you want a cheap piece of s***.

Customer Reviews:
Waste of money for me unfortunately.......2007-09-12
I just bought a COBY MP3 Player a few days ago. I had music on it, it played well and 3 days later it stopped working. The Battery was on right, I never dropped it and It was very well taken care of. Now all it does is flash. I tried to plug it into the USB to see if it would start to no avail. I am starting to think COBY is selling refurbished products on low priced ones. I don't think I'll waste my time buying another COBY Digital Audio Player MP3
Horrible experience with this product and the Coby company.......2007-08-13
I recently bought 4 of these mp3 players. I had bought one and thought it was pretty neat, so I bought three more (one for my wife and two as gifts). Within a couple of weeks, however, each one had started to malfunction in different ways. I was quite upset, so I returned them to Coby and requested a refund. The Coby company refused a refund, never sent any replacements, and the elusive person who was the only one who could authorize a refund was conveniently always "in a meeting" when I called. I am now out more than $120 dollars with no explanation or apology from the Coby company, much less a working mp3 player. I would highly recommend NOT buying this product!!
Perfect throw around mp3 player.......2007-05-17
I would never want to spend $200+ on an mp3 player I'd just use for working out and get sweat all over. I used to have another version of this mp3 player that held less songs, but I wanted to hold a bit more on it. At most, it can hold around 160 songs and the sound quality is quite good. If you just need a low cost and high quality mp3 player that can handle being jossled around, this would be a good investment.
you get what you pay for.......2007-05-13
not easy to navigate.
can't choose a song.
basic.
never ever take this product.......2007-05-13
plz dont take this product....bcoz it has no sign of USB at all....when u connect it to the system....it shows no sign that it is connected...
Average customer rating:
- works for her
- Absolutely positively terrible
- Stay far away! (it sounds better that way too!)
- Not even worth the trouble
- Inexpensive unit that would be great if it worked as described

Amazon.com Product Description
Take your favorite tunes on the road or to the park with this portable CD boombox. Sporting a unique, rounded chassis with silver highlights that's way more fashionable than standard boxy models, the MP-CD451 is an ideal choice for music fans who want a little extra style with their sounds. Fortunately for listeners, the cool shape doesn't detract from the music, as the CD player includes all the basics and a few extras. Among the features are CD-R/RW compatibility and standard skip, search, and repeat one and all functions. Listeners can also enjoy MP3s burned onto CDs, giving them access to a vast digital music library. And because each MP3-CD holds up to 10 hours of music, you can take a ton of music on the road without bringing along dozens of jewel cases. When the CDs are played out, listeners can turn to the AM/FM tuner for a less-structured playlist.
The MP-CD451 owes its audio performance to its 1-bit digital-to-analog converter, which ensures a clean CD sound, and its pair of wide-ranging side speakers. Rounding out the feature set is a 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack, a digital two-digit LED display, a telescoping FM antenna, and a flip-up carrying handle. The unit runs on either AC power or six C-size batteries (not included) and measures a compact 8.25 by 5.5 by 8.5 inches (W x H x D). And as with all Coby audio products, the MP-CD451 is backed by a 90-day warranty.

I gave this player to my daughter. She has had no problems with it and likes the small size
Absolutely positively terrible.......2007-06-07
I needed a small boombox for occasional use, so I didn't want to pay a lot for one. But man, even if this boombox had been less than five bucks it would still have deserved no more than 1 star. It was absolutely bad in every aspect. Like many others have said the CD player is virtually unusable, and sometimes it wouldn't turn on. I returned it and just ordered a Panasonic boombox.
Stay far away! (it sounds better that way too!).......2007-05-07
Terrible sound. Bought one at Fry's. They have a ton they are trying to dump. Just needed something for my son's room. Loud buzzing when the CD is on. I took it back and got another one. I tried listening to it in the store, but there is just too much noise in a Fry's to hear anything. Got it home and it was just as bad. Anybody saying these things sound great plays AM radio only and doesn't know how to spell CD.
Not even worth the trouble.......2007-04-12
My husband purchased the player for his desk at work, but tried testing it out at home. When the cd was in with the cover closed, it wouldn't spin. He tried every suggestion to make it work in the instructions (why would the instructions include something like that?) but to no avail. DO NOT BUY THIS, IT IS GARBAGE!

Unit arrived broken - appeared to be a repackaged return. Something was lose and rattling inside the unit.
To be fair, I never tried the unit as it appeared damaged.

Totally Fair for the Price.......2007-08-14
I bought mine over a year ago. I've changed out the music three times, run through several battery changes and even dropped it once. It still works perfectly. I did throw away the really crappy earphones that come with it, replaced them with a better quality set, about $20, which I can always use in other ways if this gadget finally does die. The buttons all work, just the basic stuff: skip forward, skip back, +vol, -vol and off. What else do I really need? The sound is fine, too.
Like someone else, I took away one star for a temporary freeze-up, but like him, it started up again just fine with a battery change.
(Strange, though, because the first battery was new, and had plenty of juice.)
Overall it sounds like they have some quality control issues, as a lot of people are getting units that just plain don't work, BUT if you dodge that bullet, you get a very decent little mp3 player for an amazingly good price.
love it.......2007-07-21
I bought this for my husband so he could listen to tunes while mowing lawns. It doesn't hold a lot, but enough for what he does. It was easy to use. He is pleased with it, and so am I.

I had it for about 3 months and it finally started skipping non stop so I got a new one but not the same brand. Dont drop it a lot and be careful where you put it
So Far, So Good.......2007-06-14
This is my 1st MP3 player. It was the cheapest one with the best ratings I could find. I didn't want to pay for features I didn't need. I had an initial problem getting it to work...turned out to be my mistake...I hadn't noticed that the battery came in a shrink-wrapped sleeve that had to removed(duh). But after that, it was fine. I use it primarily for quick&easy data file transfer between our two PC's, but the sound is fine through my Etymotic head phones for music, too. It did freeze up once (couldn't get the buttons to respond). I removed the battery, put it right back and then everything worked fine again. If not for that, I would have given it 5 stars. I'm a little nervous about the few reviewers who say the thing broke down quickly, but if this thing lasts a year, it will be worth it.
Used at the Gym.......2007-05-10
I bought this to use at the gym. I'm glad I bought it. The most important thing is to use good headphones. I used it with some cheap headphones at first and it was nails on a chalkboard, then I plugged in my Audio Technica ATH-M30's into it and it was a completely different story. If you put songs on it for the gym and can hit play and just let them go this player will work well for you. If you need to adjust the volume or change the song every 4 minutes this probably isn't the best thing to get. Overall I think it's a really good value.

Coby MP3 Player.......2007-09-09
Priced right, works fine. I'm not happy with the usb connection, it broke in the first week, so all of my music is on the 1 gig sd card I put in. Battery lasts maybe 5 hours.
Coby MP-C741 MP3.......2007-04-12
As a novice, I needed some help figuring out how to load onto a data card instead of to the memory, the directions were not clear about how to do that. The single AAA battery only lasted the length of 4 mp3 cd's. On the plus side, it is light and easy to read and I love the data card option to take extra music and audio books with me. It's a keeper at a great price for someone like me.
It works............2007-01-20
Bought this for my Girlfriend to use at work. I gave it two stars because it's functional, and it looks good (she really likes it). Memory expansion is a plus. FM works fine, decent reception. The third star is because its relatively simple to use/figure out. Documentation is minimal, transfer connection was picky using the cable. Memory card works fine (Corsair 512mb), and is fairly straight forward....almost.
Would have gotten more stars if not for:
Battery indicator flashes empty at about 2 hours use...but will run for another 10-12 hours.
Files are stored in 4 unnamed folders under the menu, different for recordings, voice memos, files on the player, and files on the card, but with no labels, its certainly not straight forward.
Headphones that come with it are garbage...the $3.99 gas station special is just as good/better.
If it could handle a larger memory card (1-2GB) that would earn a star alone....says it only supports up to 768 total (untested by me).
Coby support (website) is terrible. But hey, what do you expect for $35?
meh.......2007-01-18
you get what you pay for, its not the best but it works fine
Didn't work.......2007-01-17
I could not get the songs to download to the MP3 player. I followed the instructions word for word and it would not work. The system froze and when I unplugged it from the USB cable it stopped working all together. I attempted to contact Coby's customer service but you can not get through on their phone lines. I finally emailed their technical center and received a generic response. I continued to question them about the problems with connecting and downloading and COBY instructed me to return these to Amazon?!?!?!?!

Good Choice for a First-Time MP3-er.......2007-05-20
My daughter had been asking me to get her an MP3 player for I don't know how many months. She can be a little irresponsible so I was not going to drop half my paycheck on one just to have her lose it, so I put her off. Then she needed one--preferable with its own speakers--for a presentation. I decided to try this Coby brand because we've had other Coby products that were good quality. This MP3 player not only performed well for her presentation, but it's so easy to use and she and her friends enjoy the convenience of the built-in speakers. Don't expect them to sound like you're in a concert hall; be reasonable about your expectations and you won't be disappointed. I think it's just fine for a pre-teen, first-time MP3 player user. The only issue she's had with it is the folder system. This player performs without error if you don't put the .wma files into folders. In other words, don't sync your music. Use Windows Explorer and copy/paste the music from your hard drive to the MP3 directly onto its storage area. Every time we have music in folders, it cannot find the files when it's set on shuffle; it will say there are no music files. This issue is very minute and not enough for me to say it's not a good product. It suits her needs.
BOOOOOOOOOOOO.......2007-03-10
This mP3 player is absolutely terrible, the sound quality sucks. and it has about enough memory for fifty songs. it doesnt even deserve one star!!
Buyer Beware this item does not really rate even a 1........2007-01-11
I could not get this "player" to turn off! Nor could I set up playlists. The pictures I loaded were distorted and the presets for the FM function, guess what,they didn't work either. I returned it. Sadly it cost me return postage, but Amazon did refund my credit card in a timely manner. I would not consider a product from Coby again. I instead purchased a Sansa as the Christmas gift for my husband and it works very well.
This product does not deserve a star....trash can yes...star no! Too bad there is no ZERO.
Value priced MP3 player.......2006-05-17
Not too many budget priced players come with a full color screen so I decided to take a chance. Overall not bad. Coby's higher end players may be worth a look.
PRO: Full color 1.5" screen with intuitive menus.
Decent sound quality - kinda thin with little bass, but good treble.
Drag and drop files from PC.
CON: Flimsy plastic construction. Buttons click when pressed.
USB 1.1 a little slow these days.

Customer Reviews:
What a waste of a good gift certificate!.......2007-07-12
I am not completely giving this 1 star, as I do feel the product itself is sleek, simple and full of useful features.
However, the anti-skip is HORRIBLY sensitive. I have found very few conditions under which I can play a CD without it needing ESP. This includes positions in which it is completely still! Often times, I can start to play a CD with no problem, but over time it will start to need ESP more to play, and eventually stop playing altogether. From there, it's pretty much useless to try and play the CD - the unit will barely read it.
This has been tested with multiple CD's, all in perfect shape, some brand new.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! These things are not very attractive anymore because of the electronic memory units, but I wanted something that I could still hook up to my car until I can afford a real replacement for my CD deck. I guess I should have saved up!
IT SUCKED!.......2007-05-08
Just get yourself a genuine bonifide mp3 player that takes memory cards! Archive your music or audio on cd but use a regular mp3 player. 1 slight drop and it didnt work anyomre only 1 foot high fall killed it! It sucked! My $14 frys electronic mp3 player lasted longer and even fell in water twice and still plays! PASS ON THIS ITEM!
Coby MP-CD561 MP3 CD Player.......2007-04-10
I have had nothing but trouble trying to make this player work. I ordered it specifically to listen to the entire New Testament on an MP3 CD. I have tried many times to make it work and can only get the beginning or the end. I had a friend try it and she made it work and search for the proper spot on the CD and showed me how. Now when I try, I still can't get it to go to the spot on the CD where I wish to listen. It is not user-friendly.
