The iRiver H10 overall is a very good product, has very little faults and I would recommend people who were thinking of buying iPOD's to buy this because I think it is much better value for money.
the iRiver H10 comes in 4 colours - Blue, Black, White, Red. It can come in either 4GB, 5GB or 6GB to fill with recordings, photos and music! The design looks simple and stylish. I think the scrolling feature of the H10 is much better than the iPOD designs.
Also, this product has an in-built microphone to make recordings which can easily be transferred from the H10 to computer in the normal way - open the H10 from 'My computer' and move to the designated folder. It has preset AM and FM Radio. It has a photo and memo viewer.
The iRiver program looks much more better and you can use it much more easily than previous iRiver programs, it reminds you of newest firmware upgrades and new features. It has an easy-to-understand booklet on how to make playlists, rate music and so on. Music details can also be changed from this program. If you want to delete some tracks from the iRiver to make more space (which will not happen quickly) then again, just go to My Computer and delete from there. The battery life is from 12 - 18 hours.
This product comes with a Belt Case, iRiver headsets, USB Cable, Software CD, Charger and a Battery (this might differ from which country you buy from, I bought mine from a different country) - NOTE: The iRiver headsets ARE good if it was not for the fact that it will quickly wear down on quality and stop working in less tha a year. The iRiver H10 weighs 96 grams and is finished with a high quality aluminium coating, which makes the product feel smooth. You can choose the language choice, you can change your EQ settings and play modes such as Repeat, Repeat 1, Shuffle. Also you can upload music from any computer and keep the music you have on your iRiver!
There is a few negatives however - The music database can be wiped out if you drop it against a hard surface, the casing can be dented easily, the coating colour can scrape off fairly easily. The iRIver also freezes a few times during use - you can just take out the battery and place it back in, leave for a minute then switch it back on. The iRiver H10's worst point is that after a few crashes and damages done to the product the music cannot be played AT ALL and it CANNOT BE FIXED unless sent back to the manufacturers. You can access all the way to playlists, then when you select a playlist or a track to play the iRiver will freeze, no matter how many times you take the battery out and put it back in, or how many times you reset the device or connect it to the computer it will not work. Sometimes you can still play the music though by going onto BROWSER -> MEDIA -> MUSIC then choose the track.
In my opinion it is very good for the money, even cheaper in certain countries (Korea) where I got mine for less than 100 pounds. It is very stylish and a very strong competetor against the iPOD.

Advantages: Colour screen, small size, built in radio, good audio quality Disadvantages: Rubberised case - yuck
I have had my iRiver H10 now for a few months now and am very pleased with it. I think it compares well with other better known mp3 players but costs a lot less. There are 5,6 and a massive 20GB versions available. I have the 5 GB which I bought from Amazon for £120. It is small and light, weighing only 96g (or 3.5oz in old money). There are four colours to choose from - deep red, slate grey, midnight blue or silver. It is really stylish looking, ... ...left for storage.
The iRiver software programme is reasonable easy to use for creating playlists, rating your music, sorting by genre etc. The drag and drop is good for those who don't want anything too complicated. I have also found it is compatible with windows media player which also makes it more versatile
The H10 charges from either the USB or from the supplied mains charger supplied. An LED on the interface cord tells you when it's charging. ...

Advantages: Colour screen, lots of prepaid features. Plenty of firmware updates. very stylish Disadvantages: Is known to randomly come up with error messages (which can be fixed easily but is annoying), freezes sometimes
...firmware updates found on the iriver website are very useful and there are good support forums for irivers around.
Covers/facias for this mp3 player are unfortuneatly few and far between so make sure if you buy this player that you really know what colour you want.
The silicon case that comes with the player is very bulky and has a hook on the back which doesn't really help the bulkiness, also there is no screen protection which isn't great although ...

Advantages: Good Sound Quality, Easy to use menu, Durable Disadvantages: Poor Quality storage of pictures
...from your computer to the Iriver is quite easy to use and has an automatic transfer and optional manual transfer - although over the past few weeks I have had trouble with the auto function in that it has started transfering my whole library instead of just the songs that arent on my MP3 - the MP3 can store around 1250 (5gb) which is a decent amount of songs. It can also store pictures although the quality is quite poor and difficult to see the detail ... ...and you can record songs from the radio without taking up great amounts of memory, the recording are good quality too as long as you stay in signal of the radio station. There is also a text feature tat aloows you to store writing documents ( although I wudnt suggest you read a novel from it )
Conclusion - This Mp3 is great value for money and has features that rival the other companies selling MP3's in this range. I bought one and I don't regret ...

Advantages: Nice design, shape Disadvantages: Really slow to respond
...appearance the H10 proves that iRiver has come a long way with regards to design. Earlier iRiver players were hard to love for their looks, clumsy design. So on a plus side this model does win this round hands down. This device uses drag and drop to put music and photos onto the player. This makes life really easy for you. Just select the file and dropped it in the player icon (when connected to the PC) above all it's an ok player. I would really ...

The iRiver H10 is the Pocket Jukebox with a color display and touchpad at unbeatable sound value for the money. An elegant housing made of aluminum and the integrated touchpad are just two examples of the ingenious design and operating concept of the new H10 family. With the H10, iRiver once again presents a high-contrast, extra-large color display. Fully compatible with Windows Media DRM 10, the iRiver H10 is ideally equipped to download music from all the most popular music providers.
