 FANTASTIC! May 23, 2005

This underwater mp3 player is fantastic! I've been waiting for something like this for years!
My sport of preference is swimming. The only problem I have with the sport is boredom. The Finis SwimP3 is a dream come true for me. I am amazed with the clarity of the music. The only way I can describe on how well it sounds underwater is... it sounds like listening to your car stereo with your windows rolled up.
I haven't done it yet, but the clarity of the music is so awesome that I'm 100% positive that you can listen to a audio-book without any problem on hearing the narrator.
If you are a lap swimmer, this will be money well spent. For me, it's worth every penny.
GREAT gift idea for any swimmer August 23, 2007

I bought this for my girlfriend who swims two or three times a week. She absolutley LOVES it. She told me today that the ONLY thing wrong with it is that she keeps hitting the wall. Apparently she used to count strokes (back stroke) to tell her how close she was getting. Now the music takes her mind off each and every monotonous stroke that she forgets to turn around. It's VERY simple to use and has a rechargable battery too.
Worth every penny! July 26, 2006

Since my knee injury, biking & swimming are my best workouts but swimming laps was quite boring after the first 15 minutes. Then one day I read an article about Finis in the business section of my paper, and found mostly positive Amazon reviews and decided to splurge.
I feel like my life has changed. I often swim up to an hour and the SwiMP3 has kept my sanity. I'm swimming longer and stronger - much easier to stay motivated and the time flies by.
It is amazing how good this sounds, once you stick your head in the water. Breast stroke and freestyle are fine, but can't quite hear it when using the kickboard, since my head is out of the water the whole time and my outdoor pool has a lot of ambient noise from the kids' swim team at the time I swim and in the flight path of the airport. Might work okay in quieter pools. I think that my brain fills in the songs when my head is above water during breast stroke - can still hear it, but sounds tin-can-like, but just for a moment, if I'm concentrating on it (hope this makes sense).
Relatively easy to load tunes, now that I figured it out with some help from emailing tech support - they got back to me within 12 hours.
I purchased mine for about [...] below Amazon's best and with free shipping (shop around online).

This is much better than the previous version. I did have problems with the previous model, but the customer service was tremendous and they replaced it immediately with the new model, even though the warranty was up. I would not hesitate to deal with Finis.

This is a great device. Lightweight, placed in position very easily and stays there as long as you swim. The sound is very good both in and out of the water. And if you are sensitive to ear infections you don't have to stick ear pads inside your ear. If you are a regular swimmer, this will make a big difference to you.
