Review: Buyer Beware! - Sometimes we have such high hopes for a product only to be sorely disappointed in the end. I did a good amount of research on MP3 players before settling on the iRiver H10 and it still bit me. The unit itself is really attractive, easy to navigate, has an awesome color display and sinks perfectly with Windows Media Player 10. That's the good. The bad and the ugly side come with reliability. It's just down right terrible! I've had my unit under 6 months and I've already had two issues. First, the clock on the player wouldn't advance which was a total annoyance. If you're like me it's the stupid, little things that bug you the most. I called up their service line, only to get enraged by the amount of time I spent on hold. Without exageration, to get my issue sorted out I spent a good 3 hours on hold and that was only from about 5 calls! Most of the time I would get sick of waiting and just hang up. Eventually I was directed to download their firmware upgrade. Amazingly, that seemed to fix it. Now, we come to problem 2. During playback of audio files, my player now only emits high pitch static. Again, I've been going back and forth with them on the issue. I wrote them two emails for starters which were never responded to. Got one of their service people on the phone, astoundingly in under and hour, and was told to download the next firmware update. No offense, but I am truly sick of downloading upgrades for a device that should function correctly out of the box. Anyway, I did as I was instructed and my unit still plays static. To date, my H10 remains non-functional with no fix in sight. In short, for a product that ran me upwards of $250.00 after it was all said and done, it is without a doubt the worst piece of home/personal electronics I have ever owned. If you enjoy spending a lot of money and getting nothing but a company that has zero customer service and isn't concerned with correcting that problem then buy an iRiver. As much as I despise the Apple organization, I have to say they have really cornered the market on portable disc-based audio. Review: "Amazing potential, poor execution" is wrong - For the Cons at least.. 1) I don't get how you are not able to feel where the buttons are. Either this thing is doing somersaults in your pocket and you don't know what the orientation of the player is or, I don't even know what. this thing has about 5 buttons and a touch strip. 3 of the buttons are play, next track, and previous track all easily "feel-able" on the side. the other two buttons are back and select, and the touch strip is a simple up and down. I don't get how that is hard to use. 2) Format? So what? And I didn't have to format mine and it works fine with WMP. 3) A new, simple, firmware release fixes the whole problems of having to play song tracks in album order. It all works fine now. 4) Who really uses stock earphones? And anyway, that is just you for you as you mentioned, so its OK. But anyway, iRiver probably gives some of the best stock earphones compared to any other companies. 5)This is an Mp3 player, not a photo viewer. And besides, Ipod started offering it's new Ipod video with a 2.5" screen. If you can't view pictures on a 1.5" screen what makes you think you could watch movies on the Ipod. And besides, all that the picture viewer is meant for is so that one could carry around their pictures with them for a quick show, not to replace their photo albums. And the photo's are much clearer than the Ipod Photo. 6)The sync feature works great. You must make sure that the song isn't selected in another playlist. Other than that, it deletes and add songs as soon as I make the change on my computer. Couldn't be easier. 7) If you look around online, there is a program that allows you to transfer ratings from and to your H10. 8) Shut down and start-up time have been shortened with the new firmware upgrade. 9) I don't know what you mean by not transferable, but they easily go onto the Mp3 player. Additionally, iRiver is known for their long wait times and slow response customer service, but once you get through, they are one of the best. I would strongly encourage people to purchase this product as it is the best Mp3 player that I have ever owned. The design is beautiful, the touch strip is amazing, and it's so easy to use and so compatible with various music sharing programs. (Not just Napster) With it's great sound and functionally (Music, Pictures, Radio, Text) it's one of the best players out there.

I've owned several MiniDisc units in the past, some of which made me happier than others. I am somewhat computer savvy and I've never played with an iPod. Basically, I'm pretty darn satisfied... vs. other competitors in its class (not the iPod itself) it wins in several categories. 1. Oh-so-sleek look. It doesn't have the same minimalist/modernist design of the iPod, but that's something I never wanted in the first place. Its appearance seems to suggest it's a distant relative of the PlayStation 2. The battery recharges quite quickly, about 2 hours on average. 2. SIMPLE and easy to figure out interface. Menu system is very logical and it's easy to choose songs to listen to based on artist, album, genre, or playlist. Touch bar has just the right amount of sensitivity and appears to be pretty rugged. Great fit in the hand. 3. Windows XP compatible. Plays most, if not all, common forms of MP3 and WMA files. I haven't tested how well it handles media with Digital Rights Managment, but that's just not in the cards for me. 4. Great sound. Has around 20 preset EQs for all genres of music, including a Custom EQ. Haven't used the headphones but I hear pretty good... I use my own pair of earphones and the sound is many times better than even the MiniDisc units I've had (by Sony!). Alas, there are a few downsides... 1. The silicone case hides the beauty of the player, attracts dirt, and the clip is somewhat awkward. It's good for protection, if you're on the go. 2. Though it has photo capabilities, the size and resolution of the screen don't yield very good results. Text interface also has its quirks, but it does its job. Same could be said about the FM radio... it picks up only the strongest stations in your area, but when it does, sound is good. 3. The player (out of the box) and its computer interface has a few minor problems. Best recommendation is to get the latest firmware upgrade ASAP. It still doesn't solve a few things... sometimes I've gotta Refresh the music database to maintain the order of music listed the same as inputted. Also recommended is to use Yahoo! Music Engine, although no program is really required (ie. drag-and-drop files onto the player in Windows Explorer). It does require a little tinkering to get it set up the way you want it, and therefore requires a bit of computer savvy as well as patience. But once you get used to it, it's a truly high quality and convenient item to have. Also, I found a sale here for about $50 off (I paid $199). Definitely affordable and great quality for the price paid. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/95793942-iriver-h10-5-gb-digital-mp3-player-trace-red](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/95793942-iriver-h10-5-gb-digital-mp3-player-trace-red) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
