Given the one set back is the company, "iRiver" which sounds like it might be a cheap Chinese ipod knock-off, iRiver is actually a very good company and has and continues to produce great mp3 players.
First off, the player looks great, and feels great. The spinney thing is basically divine inspiration. Menu navigation is intuitive. My one problem is they dont do as much with cover flow / album art as they do on say the ipod touch. But hey, its MUCH less expensive. AWESOME screen. Just beautiful. Its AMOLED, which Ive heard is better than you're everyday mp3 screen. and its 3.3 inches! AMAZING! ... but wait, there's more... its also TOUCH SCREEN! woah... The touch screen is a little limited but its still very high quality and you CAN play flash games on this thing and use the touch screen + the other buttons on the device for controls. What more to say... oh...Read more 4 of 5 people found the following review helpful:  Not too bad, Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: iriver SPINN 4 GB Video MP3 Player (Silver) (Electronics) Pros: Super compact for a medium sized video player (and v/light); awesome design and on-screen display style (though that's just my opinion); rockin battery life; UNEQUALED sound quality
Cons: FM receiver is weak - in some places, audio will cut out with the slightest movement; some on-screen functions (like the options menu in the far top left corner) are hard to press with just my finger; bundled software is useless - to date, I have not gotten my WinXP machine to detect the device through the iriver software; does NOT play flac files as easily as I though it would - the ones I have probably need to go through some kind of conversion first before they work on the device All in all... Despite the drawbacks of the SPINN, it serves every function at least I would expect in a music player. I was surprised to find that up until now, some of the bigger name competitors' players don't even have FM radio tuners. The SPINN is very competitively priced to...Read more Great Budget Media Player!, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: iriver SPINN 4 GB Video MP3 Player (Silver) (Electronics) I like the way how iRiver takes different approaches to navigation with their media players and the Spinn is no exception. While the navigation may not be as intuitive as it's predecessor - the Clix, the wheel/touch screen combination is still easy and fun to use. The player supports a wide variety of audio and video formats and the playback quality is very good. The Spinn also supports flash based games and themes but unfortunately you won't find much information from iRiver on where to download them. The only issue that I have had with the player so far is that transferred music would not appear on the Spinn unless I went into setup and chose to rebuild the library. Fortunately I found that if I changed the connection type under setup to MTP it corrected the issue. I also highly recommend upgrading the player's firmware with the included software to 2.10 or greater which includes a number of enhancements including support for larger album artwork which looks great on it's 3.3" OLED...Read more |
