iRiver H10 6 GB Digital MP3 Player Grey

Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The iRiver 6 GB model H10 is the perfect portable digital player/recorder for true music and audio enthusiasts. Hardly bigger than a deck of cards, its internal microdrive has space for over 1,500 songs (128 kbps MP3, 4 minutes per song) or more than 100 hours of music. Yet the whole player measures just 2.2 x 3.8 inches (W x H) and little more than half an inch deep. Sensibly arranged controls--including an intuitive central touchpad--make it child's play to setup and use, and an internal battery delivers up to 12 hours of non-stop music between charges.

But the H10 is about more than just music. It comes complete with a brilliant, full-color 1.5-inch TFT LCD that supports up to 260,000 colors, rendering your favorite JPEG digital photos with breathtaking clarity. (Yep, it does slide shows, too.) What's more, an integrated text viewer lets you lose yourself in paperless novels, news, essays, short stories--you name it.

A built-in microphone facilitates use as a voice recorder, with 3 quality settings to choose from. The unit also features a built-in FM tuner with a choice of automatic and manual channel-search functions, including 20 station presets for one-touch tuning to your favorites, especially handy for traffic and news updates when you're out and about. An antenna built into the supplied headset ensures crystal-clear sound quality, and a timer lets you set the H10 to record radio programs with real-time MP3 encoding at specific times of your choosing.

The H10 is PlaysForSure compatible and fully integrated with Microsoft Windows Media Player 10, which makes it even easier to enjoy your digital media. In addition to a range of options for managing digital content, you'll enjoy fast access to the H10's "digital media hall," where you can scavenge the virtual shelves of numerous online shops (including Napster To Go) in search of cool songs old and new. With the player/recorder connected to your PC, you'll be able to purchase and download songs straight into the H10. An auto-sync function synchronizes music and image files on the H10 with those stored on your PC, just like a PDA.

An optional docking cradle (the H10 5GB/6GB Cradle) charges your H10 player plus an additional battery, connects your H10 to your home stereo system, and lets you record from external analog sources via an integrated line-in port.

Icing on the cake, the H10 also a guaranteed head turner with a high-grade aluminum casing whose purist elegance is as pleasing to the eye as the touch.

What's in the Box
Digital music player/recorder, stereo earphones, a carrying case with belt clip, a USB 2.0 interface cable, an installation CD, an AC adapter, a user's manual, and warranty information.

Not for Yahoo! Music .......2006-11-08

Owned for about 10months now.
Pros: Sounds good, good size/durability (has been used daily since purchase)
Cons: 1) Always has sync problems with Yahoo! and constatnly has to be reformatted (weekly), despite most recent firmware. 2) Freezes up at least twice a month necessitating battery removal. 3)Shuffle seems to favor certain songs for no identifiable reason which is annoying

Recommendation: I plan on trying a different brand when this thing finally breaks, and I don't recommend it to my friends. My wife's T110 seems to work ok though, so it may be product specific.

For those on a budget, not bad.......2006-10-22

I was looking to pick up a new mp3 player at Circiut City, and saw this for $100 so I figured I should give it a shot, since everything else near 6gb was $70+ more. Heres a breakdown.

PROS
-Removable battery
-Built in Radio
-Decent earbuds, replace them if you're a complete sound freak though.
-Color screen that is very crisp/clear
-Good layout
-Built like a tank
-Relatively cheap

CONS
-Touchpad/interface not nearly as easy to use as, say, the ipods
-Horrible cables which require you to have the computer in order for the wall charger to work.
-"Syncing" your player to your computer is annoying/tedious
-Sometimes mine will mess up, such as none of the songs or only certain songs will play until I shut it off, take out the battery, and hope it works the next time.

So all in all its just an OK unit. I would never suggest it over an ipod, but for those on a budget looking for a music player that will do just what it takes, this is a good choice.

This machine is a workhorse!.......2006-08-07

Like everyone else, I did all the research and knew I wanted to use Napster. So, I ended up with this unit and it has been great.

People may complain about the set up or song transfer, but I have had no issues and it works like a charm.

But most impressive is this...
I have had this MP3 player for almost one year. I have it running in my car and office for an average of 10-12 hours a day, non-stop. I get to work, plug it in and listen until I go home at the end of the day. Whatever durability testing iRiver did, I have surpassed it. And it is still running perfectly.

It's been dropped, kicked, baked in the car, and even doused with water. It is still going.

After all the issues with durability I have heard about other MP3 players, this one rules. I got my money's worth a long time ago and am now looking for a 20GB.

DO NOT BUY THIS.......2006-06-20

This mp3 player is a piece of junk. I bought it from amazon last christmas after reading all these good reviews about it. If you plan to transfer files from windows media player or napster to this device DON'T BUY IT. The firmware is sketchy and hard to download. I have had a problem with licensing on it. When i called the customer support for napster, they told me they had no clue what was wrong with it. The support from the iriver company was bad as well. The player is now collecting dust on my desk, and the music is slowly decaying somehow. I suggest you buy an Ipod and put hacked music on it or something, or take a chance and buy the Sandisk Sansa e270. It looks a lot better, but than again, so did the Iriver H10.

Greater than the iPod.......2006-04-22

My friend let me borrow his iPod for about a month. It's a nice player, but I wasn't impressed with its features. It had about the same sound quality as my old CD player

No matter what people are saying on how great the iPod sounds, the H10 sounds even greater, especially with the Custom EQ or SRS WOW turned on. I have yet to find a player that comes close to the sound quality that H10 is capable of, provided that you have good headphones.

The earbuds that come in the box are mediocre at best. I strongly suggest investing in some higher quality headphones/earbuds. I use a set of $20 SONY earbuds.

I always charge it overnight so the battery life is almost never a concern with me, but iRiver claims to have a 12 hour battery life. The battery is removable and extra batteries can be purchased from the iRiver website. It charges through the USB port or through the provided AC adapter.

The touch pad is a true touch pad. Most other touch pads for electronics are heat sensitive, which means it must be directly touched by a person for it to respond. This one for the H10 however is pressure sensitive. I keep finding myself just rubbing my pocket to change the volume.

The user interface is really easy to learn. I found it very similar to the iPod's interface. Some of the more advanced features may require reading the manual.

I strongly suggest upgrading to the latest firmware. It will speed up access/loading and shut down times. At first it took about 10 secs for it to shut off, now it only takes about 3 secs.

One problem I found is the hybrid USB/AC adapter cord. The AC adapter connects directly to the USB cable. The AC apapter alone is useless, unless its connected to the USB cord. I don't want any extra cords near my computer, there is enough as it is. Apparently iRiver uses the same AC adapter for several of their products.

The other problem is Windows Media Player. I found it a bit frustrating becuase WMP tends to not respond a lot. WMP is poorly programmed so getting music onto the player may take a few tries, but it only needs to work once. I blame Microsoft for these problems though. Hopefully WMP will have better MP3 player support in the future.

Technically, 4 and a half stars..........2006-02-27

but that's not possible here. Anywho, my only beef with this contraption is the shuffle option. It sometimes gets "stuck" on a song and repeats it several times. However, this rarely happens and I just skip ahead. The sound is great (although, I use my old sony walkman headphones,) great price, and easy controls. Excellent iPod alternative.
