We have put together a list of our favorite MP3 players for under $300 dollars.

Not everyone wants to lug around a honking media player, yet you might want a player with enough storage space to hold most of your tunes. We have put together a list of our favorite MP3 players, all small in size and with an affordable price tag. Sure, there are cheaper players out there, but none of them come as close to these three when it comes to features. We hope you will agree.

SanDisk Sansa e280

Watch out Apple, here comes SanDisk! SanDisk, a company known for their compact memory cards, has flown past the likes of Sony, iRiver and even Creative with Apple clearly in their sights. With its large 1.8-inch color display, not only can you play music on the e280, but you can look at album art, pictures and watch movies. With 8 gigs of storage space, there’s enough room to keep you going for days on end. And as if that’s not enough, there’s even a microSD card slot for expandable memory. The e280 costs around $249.99 USD. Watch Video; Check Prices

Samsung K5

Arguably the bad boy of the group, the Samsung K5 let’s you share your favorite tunes with others, thanks in part to its slide-out speakers. Now, while the K5 might not have a fancy color LCD display, or the capability to play back movies, the K5 does have an innovative OLED interface complete with touch sensitive controls. There’s no doubt your friends will think this is the coolest MP3 player around. The 4GB K5 has a street price of around $199.99 USD. Watch Video; Check Prices

Apple iPod nano

America’s favorite flash-based MP3 player, the Apple iPod nano, gets a facelift including a new color display. Available in five vibrant colors and three storage sizes (2GB, 4GB, and 8GB) there is a nano out there to fit your budget. The new nano also features a brighter screen so you can show off your favorite pictures and view album art. The nano also comes backed with the largest online music library out there: Apple iTunes. The 2GB nano runs $149 USD, while the 4GB goes for $199 USD and the 8GB $249.99 USD. Watch Video; Check Prices
