Title: I love this so much, it hurts me to give it only 2 stars
Review: I've had my X5 for about 15 months now. In that time, I have used it mostly around the house and at the gym. I charge it regularly and use it gently. I chose the X5 because I like the way I have my music organized in folders, and I don't like the way itunes organizes my music. I found the X5 to be very intuitive and user friendly.However, at about 12 months old (just after the warranty expired), my battery life went from 10-15 hours to 2-3 hours (and sometimes less). The unit hasn't been through any trauma to warrant this drop in battery life, and now I am faced with the decision to spend 80 or more dollars to replace it, or to just put that money towards another player.Iaudio states on their website that the battery should be at about 80% at 2 years old. I made my decision based on this information, and I might have gone with another player if I had known my unit would be fairly useless in a year.
Is the review positive or negative?
