The SA3345/97 looks dashing and compact enough to suit your fashionable tastes, though for a small player it’s rather heavy. Coming back to its uncanny semblance with the SA6025, the player functions and handles much the same way, so let me warn you that if you already own the latter, your only motivation to look at the SA3345/97 would be the extra disk space.
The player has a 2.4-inch QVGA color LCD screen, offering you a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. I will take you through the features of this player in very much the same style as the SA6025, and if you feel the need to get in depth then do click here.
The front of the player houses the navigation D-pad along with the menu key. The USB slot is perched beside the hold slider at the bottom, and you can find the volume key on top. All the same as the SA6025!
The interface and navigational properties have been exactly duplicated, the only difference being that I found the SA3345 a tad slow. Starting up takes a little more than 2 seconds, and the menus are arrayed one after the other in single file. Settings are abundant, as in the SA6025, right down to backlight timer, lyrics view etc.
The music player is one of the best in the market today; just make sure you take note of all the good things that may persuade you to buy this player. The volume isn’t loud enough, true to the Philips tradition. My suggestion is to tone down your listening habits a bit, for no music is worth losing a ear for.
