Sound Quality on the X5 is truley fantastic. As for features, this player does everything. Pictures, Videos, Text files, FM radio, Music(of course), and has a wide ranfe of files that can be uploaded onto it. But, I would suggest getting the X5L instead.. it has 35 hour battery life compared to about 14 I think on the X5.
