    The Good: The Samsung P2 offers fantastic audio quality and a large, brilliant touch screen. The interface is fun and customizable, and the player is packed with features including video playback, a great FM radio, support for subscription music and Datacasts, and a plethora of sound enhancement options.

    The Bad: The touch screen of the Samsung P2 is not always precise, and the lack of tactile controls may not appeal to all users. There's no memory expansion option, and it's pricey.

    The Bottom Line: The Samsung YP-P2 is an excellent-sounding MP3 player that will appeal to those looking for a cool touch-screen interface and stereo Bluetooth capability.

    Review Summary: The Samsung YP-P2 is a nice portable media player. It looks the part, plays relatively high quality audio, and widescreen videos are always nice. The added Bluetooth functionality is a bonus, especially with the ability to pair it with a mobile phone ...
