Customer Reviews:

INCREDIBLY reliable mp3 player!!!.......2006-12-18

I have had this mp3 player since March 2004 ($330), and was the best purchase I have ever made.

I recognize that the firmware sucks, however, there was a firmware upgrade offered a year and a half ago or so, and with it, has significantly improved the product.

I have not had any problems with it. The click-and-drag format is easy and makes for a very organized system. The battery life per charge is amazing, 16 hours. Over the course that I've had it, it has only decreased to 12 hours or so. So even nearly 3 years later, the non-replaceable re-chargeable battery is still performing at near-top notch.

It has excellent recording (internal or external mic--included), AM/FM radio (another reviewer on 12/8/2004 said it didn't have AM capability but it does), navigation (very intuitive to pc users), "remote control"....I could go on and on. It is bulky compared to today's standards (3 years ago, this was considered "small"), but is well worth it. It also has a sleep timer, so if you're listening to it as you fall asleep, you can make it turn off by itself after 30 min or 60 min, whatever you specify.

It also originally comes with the case, external mic, earphones, remote control, and USB connection. Which is more than you can say for ipods.

I am aware that others have had problems with the harddrive and other problems, but I have not experienced any of these. I have used this extensively during 6-hrs a day studying over the past 3 years, so I can attest to its dependability towards long-term use. Addressing an ealier comment left by a reviewer (on 7/28/06), it most CERTAINLY DOES play other formats than mp3, INCLUDING wav and wma.

Cons:
-You can't make playlists or delete files on the go. But with 20 gigs, who needs to delete files?
-the earphones it comes with are painful. i bought a sony pair for $7.
-It is too bad iriver does not make this product anymore, it is far better than what they offer now.

If you can find this product, I highly recommend it. Apparently others have had problems with it, so I guess the quality between units differs. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them lizz2424 @ yahoo . com (remove spaces)!

It's all in the marketing.......2006-11-27

I've had my iRiver since early 2005 and have not a problem. The battery holds the charge a long time (I play my player on the way to work and at my desk for a total of over 9 hours and I still have power left to carry me thru for most of the next day (just remember when you turn it off to move the button to the hold position, this will keep the battery charged longer)). I love the radio and all the other features especially the remote control. It comes in handy when your on a long flight with not much space.

The H-120 is great overall!.......2006-07-29

I found that the unit plays only MP3 files, not WMA or WAV, like listed, but it is backlit, and has a remote. I really love this player, just download the MP3s, load them on the unit as if it is a portable hard drive, and it has great sound. It's as easy as copying from the hard drive to a floppy, except that this would be drive f: or something. When the battery finally dies, after about 16 hours of use, just plug it in for about 5 minutes, and it will have enough juice to use it, plugged in.
As it is an older model, I would probably recommend getting something newer, but if you own one of these, they are great. If you can't find what you are looking for in a newer model, definately consider this.

The Battery Dies & You Are Screwed.......2005-11-10

Had the player, a little funky to figure out but was working well. Works more like a hard drive than a music player, By that I mean it is not very Windows freindly. It has upgrades for the software, if you have a lot of music, the Moodlogic firmware upgrade is not a very good idea. The firward can really slow down the player.

Sound quality is good.

Warranty is 1 year. My player died at 1 year, 2 weeks. Player was $299 when I bought it.

It took 7 calls, emails, and 1 fax from 9/27/05 until 11/08/05 to get a response, to my request to have it fixed.

Response: It is out of the 1 year warranty, there is nothing we will do for you.

$300 annuanly for a player is a rip off

BUY SOMETHING ELSE

A great Mp3 player - but flawed.......2005-09-18

Pros: It plays many formats, including ogg. It's nice that it's a usable hard-drive, without requiring special software for the computer it connects to. The radio and recorder are great plusses. The interface is better than average, although still not great.

Cons: If it breaks and it's not under warrantee, there is no way to get it repaired. User interface could be better. The fast-forward is very slow, and there is no "bookmark" feature - together this makes the iRiver nearly unusable for long podcasts or audiobooks.

Summary: A good choice, especially if radio, recorder, and ogg playing is required, and if you don't need to listen to audiobooks. Otherwise, consider the Rio Karma or iPod instead.
