Typical price: £49
What is it: Slim, flash-based MP3 player
What we think: A distinctly average player overshadowed by its competition -- its design is its largest selling point
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 14 July 2008
Tags: iriver, cable, media player, category
We like:
Lightweight; integrated USB; acceptable sound quality
We don't like:
Buttons and interface; music lacks warmth and deep bass
Also known as:
iRiver T7 Stix; iRiver T7
You might also need:
Better earphones; USB extension cable (included)
CNET UK judgement:
The iRiver Volcano T7 is a distinctly average performer in numerous respects, with competing players offering notable advantages in each. But if you like its design and don't require anything more than MP3 playback, it'll probably please
