Manual of product GoGear SA2825
Editorial note
The Philips GoGear SA2825 stands out with its OLED screen with backlighting, offering excellent image quality and increased visibility in low-light conditions. Its lightweight (29 g) and compact design make it an ideal companion for daily use, especially thanks to its 20-hour audio playback capacity, allowing for uninterrupted music enjoyment. However, several drawbacks may hinder the user experience. The lack of a touchscreen makes navigation less intuitive compared to newer models. Additionally, the 2 GB storage capacity may prove insufficient for those wishing to carry a large music library. The absence of built-in speakers necessitates the use of headphones or external speakers, which can be inconvenient. Finally, the limited compatibility with recent operating systems could pose challenges for file transfers. Regarding audio performance, FullSound technology provides appreciable clarity and volume, although it is unfortunate that this device does not support FM radio stations. In summary, the Philips GoGear SA2825 represents good value for money, but its limitations in terms of features and compatibility may disappoint some users.Score details
