I love the fact that this device is completely feature over form factor. Today’s devices are the opposite. Wow that thing was really ahead of it’s time and super feature packed! Not the sexiest thing to look at but nobody cared back then. We just wanted a good solid device and this does not disappoint
First video I'm seeing on your channel, and what a blast to the past! I currently have one of these from when I was a very young child, and it was the best thing for my baby brain. Its still filled with my childhood pastimes. Also, it took me 17 years for me to realize that this hi-tech nugget even had over half of the features you mentioned. FM radio, flash games, custom EQ, and a smart key? I was really missing out on a lot! Such a nice piece of tech treasure it is, putting competition into perspective. By far the most innovative PMP I have ever experienced.
I had a Creative Zen Nano, loved that thing. It took an AAA battery that lasted quite a long time, your computer recognized it like a usb drive so you could just place folders on it, very basic but also veeerrry small and light. I think of all the mp3 players I had it was my most used/favorite... actually I still have it and because it has a removable battery it still works great to this day. Can't say the same for my Toshiba Gigabeat and various other built in battery devices...
I have a LOT of mp3 players. Sony NWE394 and NWZ-E438. Cowon J3 and S9, creative zen nano and Zen V. Iriver H120 and N10. For me, the best are Iriver. Powerful output, recognized as a flash drive, good sound. I use my Iriver N10, hours every week...for nearly 20 years !!!!
i loved that device. sadly my friend sat on it. i used to put tons of anime on it (.ogg was rly good compressed) (like 10 episodes) and id have my anime on the go.
Well, here is my little beauty complete with cradle , dug it out yesterday from storage after moving from UK to Spain, I bought it in about 2006 and never has it let me down , I came across your clip today searching if there was firmware updates available.
I still have, and use, an iriver T10 2GB, formerly one of the "flagship" flash-based players, which came out following the success of their iFP-series, and before the Clix. It's got an AA battery so it's not an e-waste by now, 40+ hours of playback(!) on one battery (I use rechargeables), somehow still sounds better than my Xiaomi phone (and God, how I hate the volume stepping on that one), physical buttons so I can use it without looking. The only downsides are that the there's no expandable storage so you're stuck with the original capacity (which still offers 24h of music), and the USB interface which is slow. No BT or anything like that, of course. It survived 16 years of use and abuse, drops, pocket and backpack carry and it's one of my most cherished pieces of tech.
Do you have another youtube channel? You look familiar as hell to me yet i cant place where ive seen you before. Anyone know anyother channels he has been on?
i accidentally ran over my iriver clix. it was such a great little device. i still have my cowon d2 which works. but boy i wish i would have kept my creative zen micros!
Thanks! this one was awesome. Hoping it's a false contact and it's fixable. looking forward to the next iRiver, hoping you will show the one I have (IFP899, with an difficult choice you have to make, either 320 kbps recording and proprietary software to transfer files, or USB file explorer, but 64 kbos rec only...)
Has anyone, in the history of MP3 and „Media“-Players, ever viewed freakin Pictures on their player? I mean in what context? Who has ever loaded PICTURES onto their MP3 Player, sat down in a train and thought to themselves „Ah yes, ima watch me some old photos on this tiny screen now for some reason!“???
I Know right. I remember when the iPod Color came out with Photos. I was like "yes, Ima look at so many pictures" After a day the novelty wore off fast!

As a user of the clix 1 and 2. I absolutely loved these devices. I wish i could could still use my clix 2.

The flash storage on mine failed
I looked at this before I bought my Creative Zen that was about the same shape but thinner.
Its amazing how many old ‘next big things’ are floating around out there!
I had the Cowon D2. Very similar. Very Cool.
I had one of these and loved it.
I loved iRiver, had both versions of their MP3 CD players, as well as a flash player. Loved the features of it and versatility
It's a smart way to have "touch screen" but without all the hassle of implementation.

Such an excellent device, form plus function

As someone who has dealt with a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini, that tiny little screen with those blue menus, look very familiar.
That's a premium nugget. Surprised I've not heard of them before, even as an ambitious failure.
What are those headphones you're using?
Do you have another youtube channel? You look familiar as hell to me yet i cant place where ive seen you before. Anyone know anyother channels he has been on?
thanks for the video, greetings from Ukraine!

How do I replace rhe battery of this thing
Wow looks great
Does the screen physically move? or is it like the MacBook trackpads that are just haptic?
yes, it clicks on the button you push beneath it.
@@katerynavitel7739 aha yea thats what I figured. Really cool piece of tech when it first came out and even now.
I am detecting a slight accent in your speech. What part of the states our you from?

i thought i read somewhere that it could also play avi's
I bought one of these new but the battery never lasted, even returned it and got a different new one and same thing, was very disappointed
Why did it failed ???
AM country stations come in at the bottom of a 1000ft mineshaft.😂😂
Could be worse, could be NPR.
@@joeblow5214 lol...
@joeblow5214 NPR just has that MASSIVE BASS!! SCHWETTY BALLS!! GOOD TIMES!!
2:56 proprietary because they could lol Steve Jobs before his time :-) really cool device though in all seriousness. I’ve never seen one in person!
I bought an iRiver device. It didn’t work right. Out of the box. Took it back for a Creative Zen Micro.
I need to find some old Creative gear! 💯
Just figured out where I recognized this feller from! Its watchJRGo man i been watching since u left your job on your bike.
Are you the John that is going to try to get the Space Van EV computer to boot????

i wish you told us what year it was released lol
I have the IFP-899, 1GB.
You buying up all of Dankpods' nugget sack supply?
Cool wee device but it’d have been nicer seeing it more than you describing it.

You make a good point... but you can't really market a "Personal Media Player" that only plays music! 🍻

JR!?!?!?!
