Different model numbers question.

MP3 players Sansa Clip | Clip+

Hello, I am considering buying Clip+ locally (Poland) but I notice that the product code is different than in, say, Amazon.co.uk.

Amazon.co.uk number is SDMX18R-004GK-E57 and the one offered locally is SDMX18-004GK-E57.

Now I wonder what does the “R” part in the first section mean and whether it even matters. Does it have anything to do with, I don’t know, volume restrictions or something? Anyone knows? Thanks in advance. Speaking of volume limits, is it bad on this player?

Yes, the locally distributed model has a radio so that’s probably not it.

It’s probably nothing important but consumer electronics is a bloody minefield, I’d rather ask a question too many. Thanks for the firmware assurance, figured as much, Europe regulations are evil.

Ok, my Clip+ arrived and it is SDMX18R-004GK-E57 after all. So it was probably just error in the listings, if anyone is curious. Enjoying the player, it is quite wonderful. Loud for it’s size too, I mean, I felt pain on max settings, so can’t complain there :smiley:
