Guys, this is very quick overview of the other PMP named the Teclast M33. It is the same as OS 81 being sold on MP4nation. Many of the things are very much same like the Teclast M50HD so no point in reinventing the wheel here.
Deliberately calling this as an overview as i feel this does not fit to be a full fledged review
The Box
Here's how the box looks. Far better than what it looked for the M50HD
Whats Inside
It has the following things
1. Teclast M33 PMP
2. USB Cable
3. TV Out cable (we got this complementary, not part of standard package)
4. Earphones
5. Strap
6. Cleaning Cloth
[BREAK=Specifications]
Specifications
These specs have been directly lifted from the MP4Nation website for the OS81 player.
Just that the player in the pictures is a 8G model
[BREAK=The Player]
The Player
3.5mm jack, On/Off and enable/disable TV Out button, TF Card slot
Menu and Volume keys
Back of the Player
Main Screen
[BREAK=Audio]
Under audio player you can navigate through albums, Artists, song title etc
Playlist
When a song is playing, you can either have a equalizer type visualization, ID3 Tag display, lyrics or album art, but cannot have all of them together
Here's where you select what should be displayed
Album Art
Lyrics
This is the only Hindi song for which i got lyrics file (.lrc)
ID3 Tag
On top right you can see the bitrate. For FLACs here is a screenie
In this case it is showing 1026 kbps
For a VBR file, it does not show bitrate, instead shows VBR there
[BREAK=Video]
The video on the 3" screen looks crisp. The specs boast of playing many video formats but somehow i found a few issues. I tried playing a .mp4 and .flv file and both of them did not play and the player threw a 'Decode Error'. Even sometimes AVI files dont play properly and lot depends on how it is encoded (i think).
For example on 700 MB DVDRip i put in this and the time it showed was only 26 seconds :S So after 26 seconds the movie used to stop. That did not happen with another movie and it showed the time correctly as 2hrs 32 min.
Some screenies
Movie as seen on player screen (ON screen controls are on)
Movie as seen on a TV screen (using TV Out option)
Please note that there was a substantial and noticeable drop in frame rate when the movie was coming on TV out. I suppose it is difficult to notice this on the small screen but it was evident on the TV screen. Although the video quality was good.
[BREAK=Other Things]
The player features other things like FM Radio, FM Transmitter (i dont know how to use this :ashamed: ), e-book reader (text files), picture viewer which all are similar to the M50HD.
By the way here we can select any picture and set it as the background of the player.
Some other points
The touchscreen is very much responsive and works like a charm. There is no stylus available and we can use our thumb/finger to operate the same.
The player looks really good physically. Its tiny has a small screen but decent enough for videos. Sound quality is good and has the necessary equalizer settings.
Charging of the player needs to be done using either the USB port of the computer or using a wall USB charger.
Damages
The 8GB model of the player costed around 380 RMB or around 2700 rupees. At this price, this a great player
