LG FM37 MP3 Player Branded For VW

lg-fm-37-vw.jpg

It is quite refreshing to see companies realizing that not everyone wants an iPod. So I give props to Volkswagen for pairing up with LG to bring us a nice-looking MP3 player. The player will be branded with the V-dub logo and will be coated in a few of the same colors as the New Beetle.

The player is actually an FM37 [Korean Press Release | More Photos] flash-based player packing in 2GB or 4GBs worth of storage. The 2.4” screen will allow for 3 hours of MPEG4 or WMV playback. On the audio side it supports MP3, WMA, and Ogg with a playback time of 20 hours.

The player was unveiled at the Soul Motor Show but there is no word on the official release at this time.

^ What is that supposed to mean? LG makes really nice products and the LG design team was awared as the best design team in the World by Red Dot.

The LG Design does not annoy me, it is the LG quality of products. I had 3 LG phones (Chocolate and older models), LG LCD and all of them were "dead" in two months. Therefore I personally do not like LG.

thats funny it was unveiled at a motor show, but anyway, i like the design and in a different color it would look great but it kinda follows the whole iphone,prada phone trend which, is a good design but if it becomes the norm it becomes a bit boring

How is LG a bad product?

LG made a million-seller chocolate phone and makes all sorts of "luxuriously normal" products

Had LG aircon whisen and never had a problem since.

Anyway, 'Nakladac' why did you even buy 3 LG phones after you realized it has bad quality?

abi Editor's Choice
  • SanDisk Sansa Clip
    SanDisk Sansa Clip

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

  • Samsung P3
    Samsung P2

    The Samsung P2 was a success and the P3 is a very welcome and substantial update. Samsung has paid close attention to users on P2 issues and made great strides in addressing and improving most of them. The best feature of the P3 is its native video support. Most content you thow at it will playback without conversion on the great looking screen. Stop by the Samsung P3 forums for more details or check out our indepth P3 review.

  • Microsoft Zune 120
    Samsung P2

    Sure, many of us are not big fans of the walled garden, but there are a lot of great things going on with the Zune- sturdy hardware, ultra easy to use user interface, and a media player that is worthy of editor’s choice. The best part of the Zune is the constant firmware and software updates virtually giving you a new device at each major refresh. You can check out the latest Zune 120 & 16 review or stop by our Zune forums for the latest.

    Cowon iAudio D2

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

  • Phonak Audéo PFE
    Phonak PFE

    Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely.
