iHP-120 - Think Differenter

byzwerski Mar 30, 2004
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros In order: sound, ease of file transfer, remote, appearance, leather case, price
Cons In order: weak radio, no font sizing or selection, learning curve.
Recommended it? Yes

Having wanted to purchase a hard-drive based music player for some time now, I was looking at getting either and iPod (or Mini) or the Rio Karma, iPod being the gold standard these days. So many reviews said the Karma had some serious flaws, not the least of which was the drive failures experienced... Read full review »

Pros Excellent sound quality, easy to use, Windows friendly.
Cons Not Mac compatible (Yet!), bad headphones, slow start-up.
Recommended it? Yes

I just love the iRiver iHP-120.

Overall this is an excellent, Windows based, MP3 player. I'm not going to get into bad mouthing iPods but this is a great alternative for PC users.

Pros:
1. Same size (within 2 mm) & weight of the iPod.
2. FM Tuner (works great).

Pros Long battery life, plug-and-play, great portable hard drive, great look, great remote,...
Cons Could use a built-in FM transmitter. Takes a while to figure out.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this MP3 player for 3 reasons:
1. Portable audio playing (duh)
2. Needed a big portable hard drive for design projects.
3. Wanted something that could easily record from a variety of sources.

As an MP3 player, it works great. However, you probably want to have your... Read full review »

Pros Includes remote and FM Radio
Cons Navigation Joystick and not Electronic Music Store friendly, must use Winamp for playlists
Recommended it? Yes

A very good MP3 player. Decent design, and a good alternative to being an iPod clone! The earplugs are nothing special. I recommend purchases a set of noise canceling headphones. I also recommend getting a Tunebelt (http://www.tunebelt.com) if you are going to workout with this or any other... Read full review »

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 3 Comments
Pros Simply perfect hardware.
Cons Simply awful software.
Recommended it? No

Let me begin by stating that the hardware this player is built on, and comes with, is top notch. The battery life is fantastic, the full-function backlit LCD remote is incredibly useful, the capacity is perfectly adequate, it can play a large variety of file formats, it is compact and solid, and it...

Pros Decent form factor, fm radio, recording feature, battery life
Cons Joystick control, software
Recommended it? Yes

I have had this device for about a year and I am generally happy. There are only a few things I don't like, but they are not insignificant.

I bought this after playing around with an ipod, the main reason being I really liked the FM radio and the recording feature which comes in handy on... Read full review »

iRiver pushed me to iPod

byhawke75 Feb 7, 2004
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Many features in theory. Reputed long battery life. WMA file support
Cons Unintuitive. Poor user manual. Terrible support. Mine did not play music.
Recommended it? No

Because my music was already in my computer in wma format, length of battery operation, and concerns about Windows support, I decided not to buy an iPod, and after considerable research, including reading the reviews written here, I bought an iRiver iHP-120. This proved to be the worst decision I... Read full review »

Pros Nice design, convenient belt clip
Cons Unusable due to sound quality issue; Battery lasts for 4 hours under normal use
Recommended it? No

I just bought the 40 GB version and returned it a week later. The main problem is that its not usable due to its sound design!!!

I didn't notice it right away, but I did about an hour after listening to it. The problem is that it has no real EQ and the factory DSP settings are not proper... Read full review »

Great sound, lots of functions - TOOK IT BACK

Pros Great sound, easy download, built to last, remote, leather case
Cons Multi-function buttons, non replaceable battery, terrible user manual
Recommended it? No

I thought I did my homework before I bought the iRiver 20GB. The main reason buying it rather than the iPod was the FM Tuner addition. After spending 3 days trying to figure out how to operate it consistently, I gave up.

The sound from the unit is excellent. The download, using an USB 2.0... Read full review »

Cons It's discontinued
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my H120 for over a year now, and I'm very happy with it. The firmware that comes with it is a bit, well, quirky, but Rockbox is available for it and it's very easy to install and it works very well.

My unit recently went through the wash for a full wash cycle (I rescued it before... Read full review »
