The Sansa e100 series has a monochrome display with a blue backlight, FM tuner with 20 presets, SRS WOW technology, an SD card slot supporting cards up to 2 GB, an internal memory of 512 MB (e130) or 1 GB (e140), and a single AAA battery for power.

It has a built-in FM tuner and microphone, and supports MP3, WMA, WAV, and Audible (.aa) audio file formats.

It comes in different colors (one for each memory size) such as blue, black, pink, and grey, and uses a single AAA battery for power.

The first three revisions used a Telechips TCC770 SoC for a CPU and DSP, and the fourth used a chip developed by Austria Microsystems that was also used in the Clip, Fuze, and later e200/c200 models.

The Sansa c100-series players have colour displays and are able to show cover art and small picture thumbnails.

The player has a feature called Rhapsody Channels, which is the online service's brand of podcasting, and also comes with preloaded content.

[2] Released on October 26, 2007, the Sansa TakeTV is a plug-and-play storage device that allows the playback of DivX, Xvid, and MP4 files on an external display via the included dock and remote.

On December 11, NBCUniversal partnered with SanDisk to provide content on FanFare after having left Apple in a similar deal.

[3] The original Sansa View was SanDisk's attempt at a portable media player, with a 4-inch screen, built-in speaker and an expansion slot for SDHC and SD cards.

The player was developed by ZING Systems in collaboration with SanDisk and Yahoo!, which provides music streaming via LAUNCHcast radio and a subscription download service.

[5] A firmware update allows the player to support microSDHC cards for a capacity of up to 8 GB and the playback of digital video.

[6] The Sansa c200 series has a removable, lithium-ion rechargeable battery, FM tuner/recorder, built-in microphone, 1.4-inch 132x80-pixel colour display, and a microSD card slot.

It has a built-in USB connector and a 1.1-inch, duochromatic OLED display, a microSD slot, an FM tuner, a microphone for voice recording, an internal lithium-ion battery, and a lanyard to wear the device around one's neck.

The Sansa Shaker, released in 2007, is a screenless digital audio player with an SD card slot and was sold in blue, red, white, and pink.

The Shaker plays up to 10 hours of continuous audio with a AAA battery, and has two headphone jacks and a built-in speaker.

The updated design moderately improved battery life[9] by introducing a more efficient ARM9E processor in place of the previous ARM9 core.

[12] The device (firmware 01.32+) has five folders: Audible (for Audible content), Audiobooks (for audiobooks that can be "bookmarked" with a resume playback feature), Music, Podcasts (which also support the resume playback feature), and Record (for WAV recordings using the device).

The Sansa Fuze, released on March 28, 2008[13] in capacities of 2, 4 and 8 GB, is a portable media player with a 1.9-inch color display and a thickness of 0.3 inches (8 mm).

[17] A microSDHC card slot has been added, allowing the storage capacity of the device to be expanded by up to an additional 32 GB.

[18] The Sansa Clip+ proved popular with audio enthusiasts and programmers because of its very low cost, excellent DAC,[clarification needed] and relatively mature Rockbox port, the latter of which substantially improved battery life and added features such as parametric EQ, completely gapless playback and AAC audio playback.

[20] The Clip+ User Manual provides instructions for copying music files and folders from a PC onto internal and external memory.

[22] Almost unique among mp3 players, the Clip + is able to hide empty folders, which is advantageous to podcast listeners, a capability not present in later Sandisk models.

[23] The Clip Zip includes all the features of the Clip+ and is based on the same processor as the Clip+ and Fuze v2 but includes a larger 1.1-inch full-color OLED[24] display with support for album art (but called "LCD" in a press release[25]), redesigned controls, a Micro-USB connector, a new user interface similar to that of the Fuze+, a stopwatch, RDS radio capability[26] and support for DRM-free AAC audio files (such as those purchased from the iTunes Store).

[29] It is similar to previous Clip models, with a larger screen and longer battery life, but with no voice recorder.

The Clip Sport Plus was released in 2016, and is the first SanDisk MP3 player to add Bluetooth capabilities and water resistance.

[31] In May 2006, SanDisk launched an anti-iPod campaign featuring graffiti-type posters around urban areas and a website (iDont.com), in an effort to promote the e200 series.

Japanese pop artist Maki Goto has endorsed the Sansa e200 series with a promotional video featuring one of her songs.
