Features:::…
The
MuVo comes in a clear plastic wrapped package that shows
the buyer which model they are purchasing. Another useful feature of the clear packaging
is that it allows the buyer to view the features and playtimes
of the various types of MuVo players.
This
is a front and back view of the package.
These
are the contents of the package.
The
package includes the player itself, a case with belt clip
and shoulder strap, the earphones with dynamic bass response,
a line-in cable and a USB cable.
The
contents vary in different regions of the world.
The above are the contents for the European package. In the Asian package, the case with belt clip is replaced by a neck
cord and the earphones are listed as simple earphones without
dynamic bass response.
Also
included in the package are a manual, quick guide and the
player software.
The
player itself and the battery to power it.
Over
here is where you put the battery in the player.
The
battery is an AAA battery and it is used to power the USB
flash drive. Depending on how you use it, the battery will
supply power for approximately 15 hours.
If
you turn up the volume or do a lot of recording, operating
time will decrease because these activities will draw more
power off of the battery.
Here
is how the unit looks in the case with belt clip.

The
case leaves the user plenty of room to easily plug in the
cables, use it and pop it back out again.
Although
the earphones are not extravagant, they are stylish and
functional.
Usage:::…
For
those of you who have read the V200 review earlier, you
choose to skip ahead and see what the differences are between
the V200 and N200, since most of the following is almost
the same as the V200.
Let’s
have a closer look at the features and go through them one
by one.
I
copied the below explanation of the functions from the manual,
so you can see the different buttons and functions that
are available on the device.
Like
many portable audio devices, the scroller button has dual
functions.
It
is used to scroll up and down and through options from the
menu. You depress it to select something or jump into the menu.
The
USB port is protected by a rubber cover or cap, to prevent
dust to clog up in there.
The
display has a nice backlight.
This makes it easy to read the display in dim lighting.
The
display settings can be changed to fit a right or left handed
person. This is something that not many companies consider
when designing a device of this type.
Saving
myself some time and trouble, I used the diagrams from the
manual to take the below photos.
Here
are some of the icons that are included in the menu.

Music
You can put MP3 or WMA files on the flash drive.
Uploading your music files is easily done. The USB flash
drive has a USB 2.0 connector that allows a good transfer
rate.
You
can use the Media Source software that's included in the
package. This software will be examined later in this review.
The Media Source software is basically a manager for your
mp3 player.
The
drive connects as a USB mass storage device. That means
that no extra drivers are needed; and, you can easily drag
and drop (or copy and paste) files onto the drive.
Using this feature, I was able to test the transfer rate
of the USB flash drive.
