iRiver T6 MP3 player

 

This iRiver T6 MP3 player is sleek and slim

Good design, simple interface, good build quality

Control scheme takes some getting used to, average screen quality

The iRiver T6 MP3 player is sleek, slim and shiny enough to slip into your Prada clutch, and it's easy to operate. It’s not as feature-packed as an iPod, but as a simple music player it works well.

iRiver T6

 

The iRiver T6 is a slender, sleek and well-made MP3 player, though it does lack an extensive feature set. For the casual listener or as a backup player, it's perfectly capable, but audiophiles may want to look elsewhere.

Glossy, sleek and very small. FM tuner and voice recording. Easy to use. Great build quality.

Average screen. Small feature set.

If you are looking for a slender, sleek and well-made MP3 player, the T6 is a good choice as long as you can forego an extensive feature set. For the casual listener or as a backup player, it's perfectly capable, but audiophiles may want to look...

Review: iriver T6

 

A few weeks ago, iriver quietly added a new digital audio player to its catalog: the T6. It features a very basic set of features and doesn't support video playback, but a thin design, affordable price tag, and exceptional build quality make it worth a...

For its price, the iriver T6 is a good choice for a secondary player to keep at work or in the car. Though sound quality with premium earphones isn't the device's strong point, it's sufficient for casual listening through basic computer/home speakers...

iRiver T6

 

If it didn't keep freezing, i might of gave it a 9. It gets dirty easily. I've had it for about 3 months. It started freezing about a month ago.

Easy to use once you understand the controls are opposite to normal mp3s, sleek, good quality sound (volume for me noisy condition = 23 quiet = 15)

It keeps freezing on me! Then i have to wait till it runs out of battery and recharge it before i can listen to it again

I got mine today, it was AUD$78 so i reckon it was worth it. it has good sound as well and the LCD screen is much better than other mp3 players. It takes 3 hours max. to charge it. I would give it a ten if it weren't for the fiber glass. I think it...

easy to use, sleak build, sylish

should be able to change the colours from orange to something else and requires a little cleaning because of the fibregl
