iRiver E100 (8GB, sky blue) review

By (cnet.com)

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 4GB

The E100 had good battery life for music playback: you can squeeze out about 17 and a half hours from a full charge. On video playback, however, expect your batteries to die after about 3 and a half hours

By Mark Brezinski (mediaplayerinfo.com)

The iRiver E100 is an entry-level media player that looks a bit like a slider-style cell phone. The E100 doesn't have many frills and it does have quite a few issues. The software looks downright dated, especially for a device sharing its market with ...

Small and portable ; Big screen for its size, external memory card slot ; Basic layout ; Media libraries have simple, intuitive layouts ; Above average frequency response, good noise control, very little crosstalk. ; Good; Don't need to use sync ...

Tends to get dingy-looking easily ; Really bad controls ; Unintuitive menu system.; Navigating the library is annoying.; Has a huge problem with distortion, packaged-in headphones are garbage.; Bad; The sync software is strictly worse than free options

The iRiver E100 is expensive for the functionality it provides. In the current media player market, which is utterly dominated by iPods, very few media players choose to challenge Apple at its main price points. Archos, for example, makes high-end ...
