Customer Reviews

Awesome
The only problem with this toy is if you have two girls in which we do, then you will have to buy two bc they will fight over it all the time. I bought this for my 6 yr old on her birthday and the 5 yr old always wants to listen to it. They Love It Awesome gift. She likes this more than any other gift!

Barbie Girls MP3 Player
I bought this for my daughter for her 7th birthday. She was so happy and has remained so since the minute she opened it. It was easy to upload music and so far seems to be a durable toy. It has provided my daughter with hours of entertainment. No complaints!

Fun and Simple MP3 Player
If you just want something simple that looks pretty, this MP3 player does the job. But it may be too simple. There is no way to choose an individual song, you have to just keep scrolling through your songs till you get to the one you want. I really wish this player came with a LED screen. My only other problem with it is the controls. That circular style of control can be a real problem. Sometimes it thinks you hit the pause when you just wanted to change songs, or sometimes it will think you wanted to change songs when all you're trying to do is lower or raise the volume. I had a problem with not knowing I had accidentally lowered the volume to none, and had to keep fiddling with it till I got sound again. We really needed individual control buttons.

Installing the software is easy. And you really don't need it or the complicated instructions for adding songs to the player. Just choose to open a writable folder when you plug it in and Windows asks you what to do. It will open the drive of your MP3 player. Then you can just drag and drop your songs in there. But do make sure you follow the instructions for safely removing the device before you unplug it.

I also thought the instruction manual wasn't clear enough on a few things.

The player lets you access extra fun things on the BarbieGirls website. It's a fun time waster.

You can buy accessories for your player and make it look different, which is really the main feature. It is fun to change the hair or clothing.

I would recommend this player, just be sure you only want something really simple. Don't expect it to do anything but play some songs and look pretty.
