The Iriver Spinn is expensive
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...

We applaud iriver for trying out new interface designs, but we do wish the Spinn’s dual control methods integrated better with each other for easier one-handed operation. The Spinn’s large touchscreen and good A/V quality make it a compelling...

Until Iriver lowers the price on the Spinn, it will remain a luxury portable media player best suited to an early adopter with a penchant for unique gadgets and a library of lossless music.
Sound quality, Amazing screen, Great audio file format support, Stereo Bluetooth, Intuitive controls
Not easily usable one-handed, Memory not expandable, Average battery life, Mechanical wheel only takes on some navigational control
Theres no doubt the Spinn is a decent player, with great audio format support, a superb screen for watching video and excellent sound quality — but its not without its share of issues. ...

Navigation can be unintuitive at times, expensive for its storage capacity

Abstract: Aside mentioning the radio twice and entirely forgetting to talk about the A2DP Bluetooth functionality, I just about managed to get it all across about the lovely SPINN from iRiver. Oh, and the general sound quality is pretty damn excellent as well. One...
