Top 10 Mp3 players for the Best Music Quality

Most consumers are not aware of the options they have available when choosing an mp3 player. Here are the top 10 mp3 players for the best music quality.

1. iPod Touch 4th generation

The fourth generation iPod Touch includes a front-facing camera on some models, making it also possible to skype with people. It should go without saying that the iPod Touch is one of the best music players available. Apple continues to produce quality products that are backed by excellent customer service and warranties, including insurance options. Further, iTunes is still the leading application for purchasing and downloading music, movies and television shows.

2. Microsoft Zune HD
If you prefer other products to the Apple products, your next choice for an mp3 player will probably be a Zune. Zune has its own store that rivals iTunes. Zune also supports a full Web browser. Older versions of Zune had bugs that eventually were worked out with the newer versions. Most people still prefer iPods, but they purchase a Zune for its competitive pricing.

3. SanDisk Sansa Clip Zip (4GB)

If you need a small mp3 player that will store the few songs that you like, then there is no other product that you need other than the SanDisk Sansa. This player is perfect for active consumers. If you jog or frequent a gym, you need this player. Its price range is in the $40 area, so it won't break your bank.

4. Samsung Galaxy player 5.0

Samsung's Galaxy player is designed to look much like Apple's iPod Touch. Its sleek design makes it easy for consumers to hold. Though it is a great effort by Samsung, the Galaxy player still has a long way to go before it can match the power of the iPod.

5. Sony Walkman NWZ-w262

Sony is known to make quality sound and video devices. The Walkman's innovative design is perfect for gym members. For $60, you can have a great pair of headphones with superior sound performance that is also an added mp3 player.

6. iPod Nano 2011
The Nano has come a long way since the first generation. It was the model to put Apple products on the mainstream map. Though many fans have moved on to the iPod touch and iPad, some people still prefer the Nano. The 2011 version is a stripped down version that is literally half the size of previous models. If you want a basic player that still has the power that you like from Apple products, purchase a Nano.

7. iPod Nano 5th generation
If you prefer the older model Nanos, go for the 5th generation. It contains the classic click wheel and a sleek design. However, these iPods aren't particularly friendly toward people who work out at a gym. The wheel constantly changes volumes. Users will have to lock the device when they are not using it. It is a simple inconvenience for some people. Still, for the price, you can't beat the 5th generation and newer generation Nanos.

8. iPod Shuffle

This list would not be complete without a mention for the Shuffle. It is probably the most inexpensive product from Apple, but it still does exactly what users want from an mp3 player. If you want a simple player without the fancy screens and menus, pick up a Shuffle.

9. Archos 3cam Vision

The Archos is a great substitute for a simple iPod Nano. It is relatively $50 less than a Nano, but it doesn't offer the grace that comes with a Nano. Still, the Archos offers the same storage space and touch screen capabilities.

10. Samsung Q2

Samsung delivers great mp3 players, and the Q2 is no exception. It's great for simple low-capacity use. It's design makes it attractive to consumers, but they may be disappointed by the simple file support. If Samsung were to give this device a small update, it can prove to be real competition for the Nano.
