iriver SPINN Review

[leiw265]

holy mono tone

[ilcool90]

@idoeverything15

Not a chance in hell.

[TheKingPhisher]

The casing is cool but functionality is crap. Can't swipe and slow GUI.

[mydreamisrx8]

the touch screen is not anything as good as an ipod touch

[BarcelPL]

I'm about to buy this player, but one important question - is it really that 'laggy' when scrolling through songs/playlist (like in 6:24)? Because in this vid it really looks laggy as hell.

[BanginDopeJunt]

selling the products half the job, and this presentation is boring. Shit it looks cool tho, and like he said "its touch screen"

[kingj1992]

Yo i noticed that u didnt put in the review with the new firmware..with the memo. So if you are actually from the abi site. id like to ask if u can give me the steps as to how to take my memo drawing out of the spinn and onto my computer. PLZZZZZZZZZZZ.. ive done some neat stuff but id like to share em with my friends

[mcboltron]

are you the dude who plays toby on the office?

[evereverman]

how much does it cost?

[audioduo]

@evereverman i got mine on ebay for 50 dollars

[JUnKOwner]

fucking hell you are killing me 

[strawhatluffy0002]

Although it was a tad bit boring, it was still pretty informative on everything. I think I'll be getting one soon. Well, hopefully :D

[audioduo]

@strawhatluffy0002 u should because it has high HD quaility sound than the ipod touch trust me i love the iriver spin...... but to bad its just MP3 not like ipod with the apps or web browsing but still its high quality

[Zombieacropalyse]

it's actually small

[7Lecaf]

it seems there is no DMB like in Korea. I guess I have to buy from there.

[caldevera]

when i first saw the player, i thought the spinning thing was like a hinge and the player could open and close, but it's not.

[rachet197]

I am going to buy one pretty soon getting it for $70

[snelpiller]

it looks really nice but I they have the hpjack on the side... if u have a large plug it wont fit in ur pocke :( designflaw imo

[bozio89]

yea this is pretty rediculous...i fast fowarded 3 mins and the damn thing still wasnt turned on

[treacherousasian]

God, you are booorrriinn....z.zzzzzzz.z.zzz­zzzzzz sorry, fell asleep. Let me finish my thought, you're really boring. Walk away from the ledge.

[elwlx123]

thx for the review..but can you be any more enthusiastic? lol :D no offense, but it sounds like you just got out of bed or something. :D

[ClassicMovieMoments]

A great mp3. Mainly for music as it got huge good sound. I would say the sound is 3 times better than the ipods.

[DanePax]

Awful user interface design in terms of interaction and quirky design which I guess could grow on you

[varunmaster]

does this lock? like if you are listening to music, and you put in your pocket, will it lock so you don't press anything by accident?

[SundayPK]

yes there's a lock button.

[varunmaster]

ok thanks.

[SundayPK]

If you need anything else, just ask I got one for christmas :)

[varunmaster]

ok thanks again

[gebruikersnaamnodig]

@SundayPK

I got a question too:

is it possible to turn the volume down without having to look at the screen? i mean, is there a button on the side for the volume. because when i have it in my pocket i don;t constantly want to take it out to control the volume. thanks in advance

[SundayPK]

@Gebruikersnaamnodig

You can turn the volume up and down by clicking the buttons on the left side of the iRiver, or if you put it in lock mode you can just spin the spin button.

[jarintasnim]

@SundayPK  does it support PDF?

[SundayPK]

Yes.

[jarintasnim]

thanks =) so i guess i can read my pdf fomatted ebook??

[123adrianramirez]

wow i slept a bit throughout this video

your voice is so dull

[Fjohnny]

and where is the function of DMB?

[Fjohnny]

it`s getting cheapper than before. you can buy this(4G) just for $90 dollars in korea!

i bought it arround $200 dollars in korea last year!

where is my money!! T.T

[edge160]

I just got it for $75 cdn for the 4gb version. The price for these things drop like crazy, considering the OLED screen is new technology.

[quiteobserver]

finally some nice review. thank You.

[BrEnNo1023]

hm, and i wouldn't really call it a 'premium market'.. just price skimming to encourage people to buy an expensive product under the illusion it's premium.

well, his product is a year old, i'll give it that, and i'm sure the price has dropped, hhhhhhopefully. but i'm not interested in paying AU$350 for something that fits A QUARTER of the amount of music that my Zen X-fi 2 fits. oh, my Zen doesn't have bluetooth, oh well.

[BrEnNo1023]

it's...a box. You could kill somebody with those sharp edges!

why have a touchscreen (more like PUSHscreen) when that button can do all the work for it instead?

nice how you can switch between landscape and portrait. i guess that's...useful, but an accelerometer would be more logical and functional

and..

only 8 GB??? people who have the $300to spend on an mp3 player DON'T listen to crappy compressed MP3 files in order to save space. for that price, 16 or 32 GB at the least, please..?

[AnandaShake112]

Dude, you frgot to tell that it got Bluetooth - you can connect to the player with like BT Headphones, or a BT speakers

[secretMachine]

You can drag but you can't scroll by touch? that don't make any kind of sense. It looks cool and the ui feature change would be nice, but somehow it doesn't seem well thought out.

[nogboy93]

touch lokks dodgey or i dont know how to spel it but it doesnt look realy goood

[empireravenshadow5]

your camera keeps going out of focus

[IxYamikoxA]

The interface takes some getting used to, but other than that, it's pretty good and fun to use :DD

[frendlyman]

200$-230$!!!! thats too much buy yourself an itouch much better

[qiuhongyan]

do you know where can I buy iriver in Phoenix?

[Nosloveingneko]

*yawn* geez you make this boring =_=

[MKPthelaw]

Yes this was boring as hell, he actually put me to sleep. Good night.

[BIGMikeYEAH]

this is actually the worst review ever.

at least think about what you're gonna say before turning the camera on.. and once you've put the camera on put manual focus on too. Annoying.

[iWorm32]

I suppose that cowon s9 would be better buy. This player is good and sound quality is higher than previous Clix 2.

And this wheel...well i guess that it would it be really useful for people who likes difficulties ;).

[iWorm32]

Sorry for grammar. I'm Russian ;)

[EminetCarnage2]

looks like a dull menu, zune would kill it

[azorian2]

u can download themes of their websites

[qiuhongyan]

do you know where can I buy iriver in Phoenix?

[azorian2]

check a store or search the web for some shop i bought it of the internet and got it mailed to me

[frendlyman]

try online type in iriver pheonix at google or try ebay/amazon they are trustworthy

[opsgamer]

its a magnesium casing not aluminum

[dantrocks]

Anything but intresting dude... get a little excited...

You are putting us all to sleep!

[jhsh9928]

lol its 200 in korea we owned canada and us

[Wiilovewii]

your tone is so boring!!!!!!!

[jhsh9928]

I agree

[cladimere]

Why did someone give Wiilovewii a thumbs up and jhsh9928 a thumbs down???????????????

[bastlenicom]

Excellent review. Thanks

[tintin720]

can it show the chinese characters?

[leighrah]

I believe it can.

[iMacBooks]

OMG dude,

good review, but could you please talk more boring?

[playfocus]

oh~~~so~so~

[Lucifer11966]

ehhm ehhm lol

[hitsu98]

looks kinda small, how big is the screen?

[mastershake2393]

3.3 inches

[leighrah]

Which is pretty cool for an mp3 player.

Kind of close to the size of an LCD screen on a digital camera.

[wlsdn0128]

that's 3 inch AMOLED Screen...

[kingofscrim]

i wish you could flick thought the menus or songs

like on the ipod touch, but i would never buy a ipod ever again

[cast2bom]

i gatta say I'm also ipod user. was it bad for you? I usually use ipod touch for listening a music. It's known for widget and wifi and most younger generation likes ipod as I do. But i have another media player. yp-p3 has good condition for watch movies. while the movie going on screen, i can feel the rhythm and cotrol the mini player buttons. pretty good for me, have a see it.

[reveng101]

great review, but dont sound like ben stein so much. be a littlr more enthusiastic. i was waiting for you to say "are you gonna buy this? anyone? anyone?"

[JoeMomma2455]

Another ace looking display!

There are FAR too many DAPs to consider buying XD

[ULAtorez]

Is a case for this iriver available?

[wu443458543]

恩！！ 好是好！！  但是就是听不懂到底叽里呱啦的说些什么意思！！！！

[RomanianRacer]

Reminds of the psp a little bit.

[Mikeplus14]

Well, they both have the same resolution screen. ;)

[OnYourMarkItsumo]

Why is the back plastic? That's so weird...

[leighrah]

It's like that for the 4gb and 8gb.

I've seen it look all metal or silver on websites saying that it's an 8gb.

[Twister86]

this looks crappy , looks laggy and ive seen ur zen x-fi review too and it looks alot better. so get this if u only care about looks but get zen x-fi if u care about better sound quality and better interface.

[redstarstudios]

Surprisingly, this is better for sound quality, trust me I have had both

[AnnetteSkye]

It does move when you slide your fingers on the DOTS at the bottom of the screen... not just anywhere on the interface.

[DaveyD327]

Hahaha your voice reminds me of Toby from The Office! That's awesome.

[CoolCalmJames]

How do you get so many mp3 players ?

[hawkman6913]

its his job to review mp3 players and put them on the internet

[CoolCalmJames]

Hmm perfect job for me hhaha

[LG305]

can u change background? or menu styles?

[jazz4]

If only they made a left-handed one...

[Thongieboy]

i know right? its better to just make one big sliding bar, iam left handed...

[jazz4]

I agree...lefties always getting the shit end of the stick, first notepads and now this.

[johnathanfletcher]

regarding the menu select screens. im pretty sure you can slide your finger sideways along the dots in the bottom. Ive seen it before.... so unless they took that away????

[chylos]

it is slow and not so Functional. bad job iriver. Cowon d2 rocks!

[FatArtie91]

very poorly executed IMO. I'll settle with my D2 and wait until the S9 comes out :P

[mickaelqc]

great video, thanks !

Is it possible to put a photo or change the color of the screen ? because the black is a little bit sad ! thank you !

[muuusiiik]

yes, you can. you can even change its layout too.

[Xylo23]

First comment!

[Ecko50100]

Oh Snap! Good Vid Enzoten!
