With Bone Conduction Audio Transmission, sound is clearest when submerged under water.

About Bone Conduction Audio Transmission:
Ideal for swimmers and submerged use, bone conduction audio transmission bypasses the ear canal by vibrating through the bones, sending sound directly into the inner ear. This alternative conduction allows for the transmission of clear sound in the absence of air. The SwiMP3 uses this system to surround you with high-fidelity music as soon as you submerge your head under water.

  • Bone Conduction Audio Transmission--clear sound without headphones or ear buds
  • Hydrodynamic Clips attaches securely to goggle straps and rest on cheekbones
  • Improved wire connections for sound quality durability

    Note: Through diagnostics it was found that the hidden files in the memory of the MP3 causes this problem.When the processor finds the hidden file, it tries to play these incomplete files and the unit freezes up. Once the hidden files are deleted properly, the SwiMP3.2G returns to normal functionality.To properly delete files on a MAC operating system, not only does the user need to trash the files but also empty the trash bin.

2.0 out of 5 stars really dissappointed!!!, November 11, 2011
This review is from: Finis SwiMP3.2G Waterproof MP3 Player (Sports)
ordered this from trinowfitness. It came very quickly and I was very excited to use it. It took a few days to figure out how to load it. once done I headed to the pool. When i started swimming I thought it was great= really cool to have music and the sound was great. After the third song the unit stopped. So...I went home and reloaded thinking i did it wrong. For a week i tried contacting finis. Not easy to get an answer= they require a suport ticket and can take two days to get back to you. Finally , I called and got through after 4 attemps. I was told that this is a new product and they have been having problems with it. It was determined by technical support that the item is defective and I should send it back. However, they will not pay the shipping- its not their policy. Also...it may take up to 2 weeks to get a new one. Really??? you would think if its their faulty design they would try and compensate you for the inconvenience.
So..if it was working sound is good and item... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Also disappointed..., November 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Finis SwiMP3.2G Waterproof MP3 Player (Sports)
I got through to Finis much quicker than the earlier reviewer but with much the same results. They must be having a lot of problems with this model because the tech was very quick to respond that it was defective and needed to be replaced. I also had to pay to ship it back. Very poor customer service model.

Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Finis SwiMP3.2G Waterproof MP3 Player (Sports)
I was so excited to receive this product as a Christmas gift. Unfortunately it was not worth the money my wife paid for it and definitely not worth the hassle it provided. It worked for one song only even though I uploaded 136 songs as my first experience with the product. Unfortunately after the one song it played it then then provided an endless blinking green light. Reformatting, resetting, etc. would not help this product to get out of the blinking light tailspin I continually experienced. Although excited about the prospect this product would bring, I'll continue to swim in silence until another company - with proper QA measures - comes up with a more reliable product. For those who have experienced this product positively, cheers to you. For those considering purchasing this product, buyer beware.
