Product Description
The iRiver S10 offers innovation with the revolutionary D-Click system in a micro-small player that weighs only 17.5 grams to play your music and view your photos.

Amazon.com Product Description
The iRiver S10 might be small and compact in size, but it still manages to pack in some amazing features--including 2 GB of internal storage, a 1.15-inch full-color screen, a digital FM radio, and more, all in a sleek design. With support for MP3, WMA, ASF, and OGG (including Q10) audio file playback, the S10 supports up to eight hours of multimedia playback powered by its internal Li-Poly rechargeable battery. Easy to use, the S10 features iRiver's legendary iRiver D-Click system interface.

The S10's usability goes far beyond the typical multimedia playback abilities that most MP3 players boast. In addition to audio playback and picture-viewing capabilities (the player supports BMP picture files), the S10 supports a voice recording mode--a great feature for students and business users--and even allows users to use its ample 2 GB of storage space as a mass storage device. Other great features include a digital clock, an alarm, and a timer. The S10 is compatible with Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista, and Mac OS by 10.2 and later operating systems. Sporting speedy USB 2.0 connectivity, the S10 measures 1.65 by 1.18 by .42 inches and weighs a scant 0.62 ounce. The player is backed by a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

What's in the Box
S10 2 GB multimedia player, iRiver earphones, installation CD, USB 2.0 cable, and printed manual.

Small, small, small September 10, 2008
Ross A. Seymour (La Crosse, WI United States)
This is a small player. If that's what you need, this player is for you. I looked around but couldn't find any players this small with similar quality or features.

My teenage daughter uses it. It has gotten banged around quite a bit over the last year. I thought the D-click screen might not hold up, but it has. It is slightly looser than new but not enough to cause concern.

She likes the sound and ease of use. Don't use the iRiver software unless you have to. She just transfers files from explorer.

She has a couple of gripes. The major one is that it is hard to read the song titles. There is no landscape display orientation that would solve this. Another is that you can't use the hold while the player is off. Occasionally, while in her pocket or backpack, the power button gets pushed and drains the battery. Finally, battery life is not astounding.

Having said that, I've compared this player to the Apple Clip (2nd gen) and find it much, much better on sound and ease of use. Also, I have some other iRiver products and have found them to be of good quality. It is a shame they are not better known here in the US.

If you need a tiny player, this is the one.

Good alternative to iPod September 10, 2008
Wei Xu (Long island, NY USA)
This mp3 player is easier to operate than iPod, especially for people who are not familiar with iTunes. It could be used as a normal USB driver. I compared pop, classical and R&B songs. It sounds no difference from iPod. Besides, it's so tiny and the battery could support for long time. Just not sure if the buttons will be too loose to use in the future. Till now it's pretty good.

Neat little device, terrible internal battery June 5, 2008
Richard Hill
The interface is great. The clickable unit face is great. The battery life ruins the product. The battery loses charge even when the unit is not in use, and loses it quickly. This player is dead within a week without even being turned on. If it is on it lasts about six hours. Horrid battery life. Good little player besides that. Deal breaker though, in my opinion.

All around great player, beats the iPod Shuffle hands down February 26, 2008

I've owned this now for almost a year. Its not distributed in the US (at least not very widely). The interface is intuitive and the display is vibrant. Its tiny and light enough to not really need a case of any kind but an armband would be nice if it existed. Supposedly iRiver is coming out with a wrist band style one but who knows.

The headphones that come with it aren't great, but do have a very handy holder that clips securely to the player. I can go running with this easily by turning it around so the player is behind me. The FM tuner is surprisingly good and lets me listen to TVs at the gym if I get bored with music.

A big pro for me is that it shows up as a simple mass storage device when you plug it into your computer. Then you simply drag files to it. Works like a charm in windows, linux, and mac. No silly software or DRM requirements. You can optionally use the iRiver Plus software to manage it, but it is not necessary. Double bonus is that its also a 2G memory stick!

A few technical notes; Be sure to upgrade to the latest firmware to get access to better volume, battery life, and playback options. Cruise the internet a bit and you can find software that will let you put custom backgrounds and interfaces on it (very cool stuff). It will also enable you to use any of your existing playlists automatically. Search for iRiver H3mod to find it.

Probably the best part of this player is letting people play with it. Everyone is fascinated by this little guy. Its a quality device with better features than the competing iPod Shuffle and an excellent display.

Excellent player January 14, 2008
Gunther Wenzel (San Jose, Costa Rica)
I purchased the iRiver S10 2GB player as a Christmas present for my wife: executive summary, she loves it!
While searching for which player to buy, my most important recquirement was that it would play ogg files, since I use linux at home, and I record my CDs to my hard drive in that format. Secondly, that it didn't *need* Windows to be able to use it, and last but not least, that it was "cute" and sleekly designed.
The S10 fit all characteristics, and for a very fair price.
The only gripe I have about it, is that it is not properly recognized as a usb storage device (in linux) every other time I plug it in. But this is something I'm currently working on, so it really isn't that bad. I guess I'll eventually get to a software (on linux) or firmware (iRiver) upgrade that will fix this.
