Pros acceptable battery life
Cons poor quality, worst ever support
Recommended it? No

After less than a year (there was one year warranty) I realised a small fault. Now recently the device broke apart. I thought the screws had loosened. In fact the inner fixations were all broke which had also caused the problem earlier the year. I have always handled the device very carefully for a... Read full review »

A decent puchase

Pros This Mp3 player has great sound no matter what brand of headphones you are using
Cons It has a tendancy to get "stuck" on certain songs.
Recommended it? Yes

The Rio S50 is a good product for listening solely to MP3 files. The tuner has less than adaquete reception, and the player has a tendency to be slow to react when buttons are pressed. Sometimes I have to restart the player because it gets "stuck" on certain songs. The Rio S50 is very compact and... Read full review »

Don't bother unless you are lucky enough not to have to deal with Tech Support

Pros Nice design and great features.
Cons Didn't work out of the box. Volume button was broken.
Recommended it? No

I purchased this unit directly from Sonicblue. I like all the features and the look of the unit but it should work out of the box. The volume control was broken as soon as I opened it. I called Sonicblue right after I received the unit and was told to call back on Tuesday because the software was... Read full review »

Pros Full featured, sure
Cons Unit has never worked/ fast but useless service
Recommended it? No

Opened the S50 package and plugged the unit in order to charge it. Nothing appeared on the screen despite the fact that I tried several plug points. I then called Sonic Blue service (quick response) and I was told by the technician that there appeared to be something wrong with both my player and... Read full review »

Pros Light, compact, backlight, LCD screen, interface, headphones, and battery life.
Cons Headphones don't block out sound very well.
Recommended it? Yes

The Sonicblue Rio S50 has it all. Even for a flash media player, it can handle 12hrs of songs after a memory card upgrade (and more when 640MB becomes available).

Since I have used this MP3 player longer, I've decided to rewrite my review and make it more detailed. I've taken this player... Read full review »

Pros Right size, good memory, excellent sound quality and easy to use
Cons MMC memory is hard to find and a bit expensive, headphones could be better
Recommended it? Yes

I was slow in moving from my old tape Walkman into an MP3 format player but I am really happy that I waited for the Rio S50. This player makes listening to MP3s easy and a total pleasure.

I looked at all sorts of different MP3 players, from the iPod to the smallest MUVO type players but... Read full review »
