The editors didn't like
Not as slim as some of the competition
Lacking software
High price
Spinn wheel can be imprecise
Bundled software is clunky and Windows-only
Expensive given limited storage
FLAC files won’t play over Bluetooth
Overpriced. Touch screen seems superfluous
And its easy to overshoot your selection with the cylinder controller. User interface isnt all that attractive—and could be more responsive. Storage tops out at 8GB
And theres no expansion slot.

No link to online store or subscription service
Pricey
Stark
Poorly designed user interface

Uses proprietary USB cable
Only available in 4GB and 8GB capacities

And yet it lacks some of the advanced features expected in the price range
Such as integrated Wi-Fi or an SD card expansion slot. It maxes out at 8GB and using it isnt immediately easy. Despite the seemingly decent vide...

Stark, poorly designed user interface; no expansion slot; screen dithers colors in photos, video; touch screen lacks gesture controls; uses proprietary USB cable; only available in 4GB and 8GB capacities; very expensive
Abstract: For those of you who have missed reading about this device on the blogs or seeing one in the shops, the SPINN is a small PMP with a retro twist…a small analog wheel at one end that can be used in combination with the 3.5 inch AMOLED screen to do just...
The SPINN is irivers best DAP so far this year and a refreshing change from the string of budget players released before it. Its built well, sounds good, and sports a one-of-a-kind design with a beautiful display. While this is proof that iriver ha...

It's plain to see that iriver has obviously put a lot of thought into the design of this player, we just wish they'd put half as much thought into everyday usability. There's so much to love about the SPINN, and a bit of an x-factor that makes us want to ...

The iRiver Spinn is an incredibly attractive device whose saucy looks, amazing display, and high-quality audio and video playback are sure to win many admirers. A few usability and navigation issues knock it down a notch, but some of those may disappe...
The Spinn is an excellent an innovative PMP, though it might struggle to find a niche between other compact players and high-end, touchscreen devices like the iPod touch. If you fancy a more versatile widescreen take on the Lplayer and Clix 2, it's well w...
Iriver has always positioned itself as a premium brand putting emphasis on design and unique user interfaces. Since the clix 2, however, their products have been mostly disappointments. The E100 had a nice design but lacked quality hardware, and the...
