Kevin MCD's review of iRiver Clix

“Sound quality not as good as expected, the biggest let...”

★★☆☆☆

written by Kevin MCD on 31/01/2007

Good Points
Looks great, very small about the size of a box of matches

Bad Points
Takes a long time to sync with media player, longer than iTunes. Does not come with a power pack so you can only charge via USB which is inconvenient if your taking it on holiday.

General Comments
Sound quality not as good as expected, the biggest let down was that it does not transfer all the album art from media player, and you just get a message on your Clix saying no picture available. I also bought the cradle, which for the price has no value. It will cost a lot less to buy a Nano and some speakers for the same effect. After pondering over this buy for a week I was so disappointed I sent it back the same day I bought bought it.

Album Art does work on the Clix - you just have to update the album properties in the iriver Plus 3 software - its not difficult and only has to be done once.
<br/>I think you should have had more time with the player - it has loads of features (more than the nano) and I certainly have no problem transferring media very quickly using either iriver software, windows media player or or just drag and drop.
