The Sorell SF3000 ships with 1GB of flash memory and also includes an LCD for the playback of video so one might conclude that it might be bulky or larger than the previous SF2000 model but one would be wrong. The Sorell SF3000 is about the size of a pack of gum and incredibly lightweight. After tacking the player out we hooked it up to a USB 2.0 connection and allowed it to charge. A full battery charges takes about four hours as it charges from the USB connection, unlike the batteries that some smaller units require.

Sorell SF3000 Reviews

CNET Reviews reviews the Sorell SF3000 and gives it a ‘Very Good’ rating. They write – ‘The Sorell SF3000 is for people who want to hold the (1GB) digital universe in the palm of their hand and are willing to shell out a few extra bones for the luxury. Elegant, petite body; colorful, high-resolution LCD; multipurpose recording abilities; strong FM radio signal; compatible with WMA music stores.’

Tech Zone reviews the Sorell SF3000 and writes – ‘Looking at the SF 3000 as just a MP3 player, the price seems high. However, the SF 3000 is more than just a MP3 player – it’s a fully loaded video player that also plays and records MP3 music. Still I would like to see Medialine drop the price by $50. Then it’ll be a no brainer to get the SF 3000 over the 1GB iPod Shuffle‘

AMD Zone reviews the Sorell SF3000 and writes – ‘Sorell definitely have pushed technology far and fast with their SF3000, taking an MP3 player one step further with the ability to play both video and picture files and have done a good job at it. Couple this with a long battery life, a weight at just over an ounce with battery, features such as their lyrics database and the transcoding software, FM player, audio recording, MP3 encoding, and an included rechargeable battery and you have a good package overall.’
