Default My White O2

Actually I want a black one if I had a choice, but I could only find a white one in 32G.

I think O2 is pretty cool.

The case is solid and attractive. I wouldn't say it is light; after all, it is about 206 gram.
The operation is fluent with almost no delay and the color of screen is pretty.
I haven't tested the sound quality yet, but the Build-in speaker could be very loud.
A 16G SDHC card works normally.
I played a 608 x 336 pixels, Xvid avi file and the result is better than I had thought. There was no delay in playing and the navigation speed is quick.
However, the recording function is weak with few options. It can only record in WMA with 192 or 128 Kbps.

Some photos are in my album.

It must be said that maybe because I didn't tear off the plastic coat yet, the screen seems strange.
In fact the screen is good as I already said.

I am not sure about what you mean.
Because I seldom use a playlist and usually play the file dirctly.

O2 seems not support a m3u file.

You can add files into "Your favorites", and you can find your favorites quickly through this funtction; maybe it is the playlist function your looking for.

Also, O2 has a "recent files" folder, showing the files you recently play.

I can't read Korean....I use the google translate function to read the Korean website.

I don't think that GUI could be customized in an easy way.
All I found is an option to change the wallpaper......
There is no option for changing a theme, needless to say other advanced customizations.

Maybe Rockbox could do that.

I don't have a D2, so I can't compare O2 with D2.
But I think O2 is worthy to buy.

Could you possibly make a video showing the different capabilities of the O2?

I just copped to the fact that the O2's GUI colour scheme is quite similar to this site

Doesn't this guy deserve the first O2 user title?

I can't get over how small it is. Does it have the D2's cheesey file limit?

size: A3 > O2. screen: O2 > A3. weight: A3>O2, thickness: A3>O2
touch screen: no lag
H264: O2 = A3, tested with v1.09 and v1.11


ugly part: battery is attached to the back of the screen with only three lines of double tapes (around 2.5mm wide each). tapes aren't strong enough to hold the battery tight on mine. battery is moving around when you move the device... stick some paper on one side of the battery solves the problem..
