"The Open XML format is designed for performance. XML is fundamentally slower than binary formats, so we have made sure that customers won't notice a big difference in performance."

iRiver Clix reviews

iriver%20Clix.jpg

Read- PCMag

The Clix is a nice player that offers very good audio and photo quality, long battery life, and a host of extras.


Read- Anything But iPod

The Clix predecessor, the U10, was a great little player, but iRiver was swinging for the fences charging $250 for a 1GB U10. But iRiver came back down to earth with the Clix, offering it at a price that matches its peers. If you are shopping for a high capacity flash player you must consider the iRiver Clix for its comfortable eye pleasing user interface and typical but well done feature set.

Read- Cnet

t $199.99, the 2GB Clix is much more competitively priced than its predecessor. Of course, we'd love to see a 4GB, 6GB, or even 8GB version in the near future. Still, if you're looking for a WMA device and can handle 2GB of storage, check out this MP3 player--we're enamored with it.
