Saregama Carvaan Tamil - Portable Music Player with 5000 Preloaded Songs, FM/BT/AUX (Cherrywood Red)

This device was purchased as a gift for my dad, primarily to enjoy his favorite old songs. While he liked the device, a few limitations were apparent. The songs are categorized by different actors and artists in folders, which becomes inconvenient. If you're playing a folder and turn off the device, upon restarting, it begins playing from the first song in that folder, making it difficult to resume where you left off. This also means you can't skip directly to a specific song using the remote; you have to manually search for it every time you restart.The speaker quality is just average. Considering the cost, there are better options available, such as high-standard Bluetooth speakers with superior audio quality. Most people today own smartphones and can create playlists to stream through a Bluetooth speaker, which offers more flexibility compared to the limited song categorization on this device.The device may be suitable for those who prefer not to create playlists on their mobile phones or simply want a dedicated music player. However, it may not be worth the investment given the more versatile and higher-quality alternatives available in the market.

Perfect Gift for parents , food quality features all good,Faced few issues after 6-7month with delay in song playing!

Excellent quality.

The media could not be loaded. The Radio should have dual power AC/DC. It has only battery power.So it will be better and also sales will improve if dual power system is present.

The charging port is designed to fail. Do not buy until Saregama sends the one with the C port chargers.

I gave it as a birth day present to a close friend of mine . We have been friends for 63 years

Looks really good. But not a good quality speaker, bad antenna which badly receives signal, not great songs collection and I strongly not recommend this. Choose something better.

Pros:I love. the song selection. look and feel. Almost perfect match with my furniture. sound quality is good on internal speakers and awesome when I play songs through my Bose using the AUX port. FM radio works wellCons:. a little pricey for such a simple electronic gadget. But I said to myself that I am playing approximately 1 rupee per song which is a good deal. some songs do jump or skip when playing like a scratched vinyl record. Maybe the state of the archives are like that. instead of Hindi stations on a Tamil caravan, there could be all out Tamil stations. I however love the Hindi songs too. So this is not a huge problem for me. The remote uses a standard remote protocol. So it interferes with my TV's background LED lighting which also has a remote for controlling the LED color, intensity, etc., Result - when I use remote to operate the Caravan, the LED strip behind the TV goes crazy.Suggestions for improvement:. Corded headphones are becoming things of the past. Since the caravan has bluetooth, it can support pairing to bluetooth headsets. Use a unique remote protocol
