SanDisk Clip Sport Plus -- New Model

[tubemonkey]

SanDisk released a 6th generation Clip earlier this month called the SanDisk Clip Sport Plus.

Best Buy is selling it for $60 and has exclusive rights for sales until Q1 2017.

Thanks to Catlady for bringing this to our attention in her thread Broken Clip.


Major Cons

• no mSD card slot
• no Audible support -- but they are working on it for a future FW update
• only 7 hours battery life using Bluetooth

FOR YOUR BEST WORKOUT—RAIN OR SHINE

The affordable, lightweight SanDisk® Clip Sport Plus MP3 player gives you the freedom and flexibility to work out the way you want. With its durable, water-resistant design1, it’s ready for a muddy mountain bike ride or a trail run in the rain.

And it’s small enough to clip to your clothes or gear, so you can stop worrying about your device and focus on your workout.

Interesting. I didn't see this model come up when I looked for AGPTek mp3 players yesterday. At half the price of the Clip Sport Plus and with a card slot, I think I may give this one a try.
