iriver's 4GB Clix caught slumin' in special black

What's this, a press shot of the rumored 4GB "special black" Clix perhaps? Well, that's what Swedish site Min Hembio is reporting and if true, makes for a notable bump to that hotly reviewed Clix (U10). Expected in Sweden at the end of this month for...

iRiver U10 media player reviewed

We had a chance to play with the iRiver U10 a little while ago, and were surprised to find that we actually liked the PMP, despite its 2.2-inch display and relatively steep price of $199 for a 512MB version and $249 for the 1GB model. Now Everything...

iriver clix Rhapsody

iriver's second clix, an excellent flash player, is the player for Rhapsody users.

Syncs with Rhapsody accounts for custom channel playback, purchase, and account info. Excellent user interface. Easy "direct click" navigation. Screen is bright and sharp. Flash games. FM radio/recorder. Voice recorder. Good sound quality.

Terrible earbuds. Volume controls seem to operate backwards. Can't use while recharging or loading. No shuffle or repeat modes.

Clix 2ND Generation

The small, sleek Clix 2nd Generation from iRiver has pretty much everything you'd want in a flash-based media player, starting with a beautiful, easy-to-read display and good controls.

Beautiful AMOLED display Simple, intuitive controls

Easy to accidentally click controls

The Clix 2nd Generation is a fine player, with a great display and intuitive controls. Its storage space can't match that of a hard-disk-based player; but if you're looking for a light, portable, flash-based device, it makes an excellent choice

Well-designed and packed with features, iriver's second clix is one excellent flash player.

Excellent user interface. Easy "direct click" navigation. Bright, sharp screen. Comes with Flash games. Has both FM radio/recorder and voice recorder. Good sound quality.

Terrible earbuds. Volume controls seem to operate backward. Can't use while charging or loading.

Review: iRiver Clix gen 2

Click-screen navigation makes scrolling through menu fun (seriously!) über-slick user interface. Customizable SRS WOW HD settings for remarkably crisp audio, even at painfully loud volumes. Supports MP3, WMA, OGG, Audible books and some subscription...

Video software is PC-only and won’t convert Quicktime movies. External buttons difficult to press. Drive gets formatted when switching from mass storage device mode to Windows-only MTP mode. Spotty music subscription support – consistently crashed...

Iriver Clix

The next generation Iriver Clix is even sleeker and slimmer than its predecessor, but offers the same unique and intuitive interface and stellar audio quality. This player comes packed with extras such as an FM radio; a voice recorder; an alarm clock;...

There's no cradle or line-in recording options for the new Clix yet, and Iriver doesn't offer an easy way to get video content for the device.

The Iriver Clix offers the perfect blend of hot design, desirable features, and stellar sound quality. If you're looking for an alternative to the iPod Nano, this device should top the list.
