iRiver E100 flash-based MP3 player review

 

With its cream-coloured plastic casing and minimalist controls (the entire area beneath the 2.4in display is a four-way mechanical rocker with a small center button), iRiver's E100 resembles a slightly overweight Apple Nano - or maybe a small...

iRiver makes some slick and stylish portable music and media players, but the iRiver E100 isn't at the top of the list. Between its unprepossessing industrial design, ho-hum audio, and difficult user interface, we didn't find much to recommend it.

While it does the job just fine, iRiver's flash based portable media player the E100 does have a few niggling issues that set it back a notch from some of the competition.

Wide variety of file formats supported, good audio quality, simple to understand menu system

Unintuitive controls, sluggish at times, screen not as impressive as competition

iriver E100 review: iriver E100

 

iriver E100

The Iriver E100 is packed with pretty much every feature in the book--photo and video playback, an FM radio, all recording capabilities, compatibility with both Windows and Mac, extensive audio file format support, bookmarking, microSD card expansion,...

The Iriver E100 has a cheap, plastic feel, and the interface is very basic. The clickpad is not totally responsive, and some navigation is sluggish. D-Click navigation isn't optimal for the control pad setup. No integrated podcast support.

The Iriver E100 is a decent choice for people who want a ton of features in an easy-to-use package, but if you're after speedy navigation or top-notch sound quality, look elsewhere.

iRiver E100 8GB, brown

 

Click pad irritation We wouldn't necessarily say that the Iriver E100 completely fails in the design department, but it could definitely use some work. The main issue is the control pad--it's just bad. It's plastic and feels cheaply constructed. The...

iriver E100

 

This slickly styled player is easy on the eyes, but it's simply frustrating to use.

Slick design. microSD slot. Strong file support. FM radio and recording. Voice recording and line-in recording.

Photos and video don't look so great on the not-so-sharp screen. Uninspired user interface. Difficult navigation. Many settings and options are difficult to find.
