Amazon.com Product Description
The Samsung YP-K5 4 GB Audio Player is a lightweight MP3 player that is loaded with features, such as an innovative touch screen, FM radio receiver, and a built-in speaker. This compact audio player also doubles as a mini boom box, and defies engineering logic by somehow squeezing a high-end music player--complete with a unique slide-out speaker--into a slim, compact device. The K5 also makes it easy to access your complete music library by interfacing with your PC to quickly and easily download music files (MP3 and WMA) via USB 2.0. This MP3 player is PlaysForSure-compatible, stores up to 1,000 songs on 4 GB of memory, and features a playback time up to 30 hours with earphones (up to six hours with the speaker).

This device is built with an attractive, slide-out speaker that features DNSe--Samsung's proprietary Digital Natural Sound engine technology. DNSe delivers virtual surround sound with great volume, no distortion, and a natural and accurate high-quality sound. A gentle nudge from your thumb and forefinger effortlessly positions the speaker for optimal sound acoustics. At the same time, the K5 utilizes an interface that switches from a vertical, personal-use view to a horizontal, shared-use view. And with a minimum number of keys, simplified system, and a stylish, minimalism look, the K5 is all about functionality, without sacrificing style, and superior performance. In addition, five preset equalizer modes allow you to customize the sound experience to suit your style of music. These advanced music functions will allow you to enjoy an acoustic experience that you'd expect from your home stereo. And for times when you just want to keep the music to yourself, you can use the included state-of-the-art earphones with two-part earbuds that offer a bass-enhanced sound experience.

With the K5 in hand you can also tune in FM radio, so you'll never miss your favorite broadcasts. The device also features a digital alarm clock that you can personalize with your choice of music. And to make sure you never miss an appointment, the alarm will automatically sound even when the K5 is switched off. No alarm is complete without a snooze option, so if you need a few extra winks, just hit snooze and go back to sleep. At night, a timer function and auto turn-off enable you to ease yourself into sleep with your favorite tunes without draining your battery. You can also enjoy a personalized picture slideshow as you listen to your K5. The 4 GB device stores up to 25,000 photos and allows you to take memories with you anywhere, anytime. Use your photos as your MP3 player's screen saver, beautifully displayed on the OLED screen in brilliant 128x160 pixel resolution. With superior sound, an innovative slide-out speaker design, and a simple, functional interface, the K5 is designed to exceed your expectations.

What's in the Box
Samsung YP-K5 4 GB audio player, earphones, USB cable, and installation CD.

The PlaysForSure-compatible K5 stores up to 1000 songs for the 4GB unit. With Samsung's proprietary Digital Natural Sound engine technology (DNSe), the K5 offers virtual surround sound. This guarantees great volume, no distortion, and a more natural and accurate higher quality sound, even with just two small speakers. In addition, 5 modes of Preset EQ allow you to customize the sound experience to suit the style of music. These advanced music functions allow you to enjoy the same acoustic wow that you would hear from your home stereo.

1 out of 5 stars technology not there yet   April 21, 2008
speakers were very "tin" sounding. if you improved the speakers this would be a great product. i would be willing to sacrifice small size for better sound quality.


2 out of 5 stars random/shuffle problem   April 9, 2008
Our daughter had a T-7 for a couple years but was ready for upgrade. We bought her a T10 for Christmas. Our son got a T9 last year and liked it so we figured the T10 would be even better. It seemed neat, had lots of nice options and sounds good BUT the big problem our daughter experienced was with the shuffle function. It played the same songs over and over in the same order and did not play all songs. We contacted Samsung in search of a solution for the malfunction but could not get support. Sent the T10 back and bought the YP-S5J which daughter thought was even cooler because of the speakers. It has the same random/shuffle malfunction. Always starts on same song and plays songs in same order. Does anyone have an idea how to correct the problem? If there is not a solution we will have to return this product.

Purchase this item for my wife at Christmas. She really thinks it is a great player. The sound that it puts out is great. Highly recommend. The shipment of this item was excellent.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome sound quality, speakers decent   December 8, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Sound quality surpasses or equals any iPods I have listened to. Very decent player. Lacks the 'extras' that the iPod has though, but I tend to just listen to music when jog/run/cook etc and don't care the extras.
Great to play in cars too.


On songs recorded at >128Kbps, the speakers in 3D mode are just simply awesome. Lower bit rates tend to sound flat on the speakers.

The accompanying headphones were of average quality, and tended to respond too much to treble in comparison to bass. I replaced these with the JBuds Noise-canceling head phones from Amazon ( about $20)...and the combination is simply awesome.

Overall a good audio product, but does not have the frills you tend to expect from today's audio players.



4 out of 5 stars Exceptional product   December 1, 2007
This is an excellent, easy to use mp3 player. It is the size of a cell phone and may be too big for people who want to use it in a gym, but, otherwise, it is spectacular. The sound is great. It is just right for travel and normal listening situations. If the user wants to feel like he is at a rock concert, this is not the player. For everyone else, this should be a great device. Navigation is easy, and it syncs with Rhapsody very well.
