My iRiver Clix2 Review
When I was shopping for a new, small mp3 player I really wanted to see more reviews that demo the device but also discuss the features, and so I thought I’d try doing one now that I have my new Clix! I apologize for sounding dorky and my speech impediment (cluttering). This is my first crack at a video review and I did the best I could in one take (filming and editing it myself). Oh, and my nails are long because I play classical guitar. Here’s the full review: eptiger.blogspot.com/2008/03/my-iriver-clix2-review.html **EDIT** In the video I mention that you can’t listen to music while playing Flash games, which was true when the product was released. However, the new firmware update fixes that problem, so I apologize for not checking that out.

how do you download themes into the clix! please tell me some website where i can download
Wow, I love the menu designs, very pretty. I was considering buying one now that its cheaper from when it came out. I have a Samsung P2. Not as pretty, but I love how it navigates, now that I’ve gotten used to a touch screen. I previously owned a 2GB CLix first gen. I must say, the second gen is much faster. Great video man.
You mean music software? It supports almost every common music format except for Apple’s DRM-laden format, but it works easiest with iRiver Plus 3 (included in the box) and drag-and-drop via your favorite file browser. I haven’t tried it on other programs really because iRiver Plus 3 gets the job done pretty well – I just drag playlists from other software into IRiver Plus 3 for transfers.
CAN I ASK A QUESTION?
Is the Clix 2 compatable with most common Music players?, thanks.
Hello :) We are a rare breed (fortunately).
i’m a clutterer too
Sorry, it does not :( Not that I’ve noticed, at least. I used to like that feature in iTunes back when I had my shuffle, but I’ve gotten used to not having it.
So can on the iRiver clix does it count how many times you play a song? I know some mp3 players can do that and it’d be great if this could, I’m kind of OCD about how much I listen to certain songs. xD
Where did you get this?!!!!!!!!!
excellent…..works a treat. thats saves me having to go into “browse device” and all that hassle……thanks
Just a simple reverse engineering of how the mypodder application was working: if you open up your clix in your file browser and open the ‘Music’ folder, just create a folder in it called ‘Podcasts’ and drop your .mp3 podcasts in there. I’m in UMS/MSC mode, but MTP mode may also support this (haven’t tried it).
Dude you have to tell me…..how did you get the podcasts to show in the podcast menu and how did you create those additional playlists???
Do you know how to put games in it? can iborrow the web that you use?
Ps. I have the EXACT same camera as you exept mine is pink :)
The Cowon D2 is a great device. I haven’t personally used it, but it was one of 3 devices (counting the clix) in the running for me in the end, and I ended up being swayed by the clix and never regretted it. I was never personally concerned with memory because I just fill up new workout playlists and podcasts every week, but I can see that being an issue.
Glad you found the video useful!
thx for the vid ,its way better than all the other professional ones.there u dont get all the features and settings ,possible with the clix.Nevertheless ill probably buy a cowon d2 but the vid made me to think abot my decisoin,if the clix had a sd-slot and the in my opinion fantastic touchscreen navigation…
Thanks – I did it just for fun so I’m very glad that there are people who find it useful! :)
I forgot to say your video was the most helpful clix2 video on youtube

well thanks i already got a diferent player. the samsung p2 with touch screen
Nope, so I don’t know anything about that. I don’t trust any mp3 download services though but Amazon MP3 since Yahoo Music and MSN Music folded.
didur clix have a free rhapsody trial in it should i buy the 8gb clix on amazon with the rahpsody trial and use limewire? will it work?

Really helpful review – I signed up to youtube so that I could post on here how great your video was. I don’t know if I should thank you for helping me in my search for a new mp3 or blame you that I’m about to spend loads of my bank’s hard earned money lol.
I found the 8gb model with the cradle speakers plus silicon case for approx 150 British pounds, which I think is pretty good.. Will be handy in the summer on planes or at the beach etc. Thanks for the vid!
p.s. you sound quite cute :)
