If you think your MP3 player is ultra portable, think again…MobiBLU has released the world’s smallest MP3 player that measures .94" x.94" x. 94" and comes in a variety of colors to interest users of all tastes. The MobiBLU DAH-1500i features an OLED display with blue lettering. Thanks to OLED technology, the text on the tiny unit is sharp and bright, which makes it painless to navigate through various menus.

Even though you would expect this player to be limited in functionality, the MobiBLU 1500i is packed with FM radio receiver and recorder, voice recorder, SRS WOW surround sound audio enhancement technology, five preset equalizer options, a built-in clock and rechargeable battery. It also supports MP3, WMA and DRM WMA audio formats to cover compatibility across the board. MobiBLU lets you use different folders for diverse song types or albums, thereby organizing the playlists in a cleaner manner.

The exterior of the MobiBLU looks gorgeous with a bright display screen. This particular player is available in either 512MB or 1GB storage and retails for about $99.99 and $129.99, respectively.

Initial Thoughts: The innovation behind this particular player is jaw dropping. The whole concept behind the MobiBLU is impressive – the bright screen, a minute design and a plethora of features just make this player one of the most attractive offerings in the market. MobiBLU has even integrated the latest in audio enhancing technologies in addition to the standard features to really make this a competitive player. Not to mention, the price of this particular player is more desirable than other similar audio devices. The only drawback we see with this player is the actual size, which could potentially be its downfall. The 1500i is so tiny that you’ll have a difficult time locating it should you misplace it. Theoretically, there doesn’t appear to be other major flaws in the player. Of course, we’ll only recommend the MobiBLU’s DAH-1500i once we have tested its performance in our lab; you can expect to see our performance results very soon.
