| chase327's Full Review: iRiver iFP-195T (512 MB) MP3 Player |
I spent $50.00 on this because I had a rebate. It was worth the money, but barely. It was hard to navigate at first, with the length of the button-push being more important than the actual button. Additionally, I had a very hard time transferring songs from my computer, equipped with Windows XP, to the player. Once I figured everything out, all was well... for a few months. The sound quality was excellent, even the FM radio! It also had a voice and FM radio recorder. Best of all, one AA battery lasted about 20 hours. After I had owned the player for about 2 months, it broke. It just wouldn't turn on! Luckily, I still had the receipt, and it came with a warranty. I sent it in, and I received a brand new one... more than a month later.
Overall, this is a decent mp3 player if you just need something small (it holds about 30 songs) and don't want to spend a ton of cash. Just remember to hold on to your receipt!
