The Iriver Spinn is no exception with its Spinn System Toggle Wheel, touch-screen display, and laundry list of features. This is an expensive mp3 player but its slick, high-quality build and plenty features may be the best choice for a nonstandard MP3 player with plentiful audio codec support. This wonderful player uses iriver’s unique spinning cylindrical control (hence the name), and loaded with plenty useful features such as built-in Bluetooth support, photo and video playback, voice recording, flash games, and an FM radio with recording.

The Iriver Spinn with 3.3-inch touch screen is one of the most solid-feeling portable media players. The measures is 3.9 in x 0.4 in x 2 in (WxDxH) and 0.2 lbs weight. It is constructed mainly out of brushed magnesium, which wraps around the white plastic backplate. Inserted into the right spine is the Spinn System Toggle Wheel, a cylindrical knob you twist to navigate menu options and push in to make selections and dive through menus. Some other tactile controls are the dedicated volume, power, and back keys and a hold switch which are placed on the top and left edges of the player. A USB port is concealed beneath a flap on the bottom. The standard 3.5mm headphone jack is placed on the bottom, opposite the Toggle Wheel.

The Spinn can be controlled via the tactile controls, but the touch screen provides access to a few essential extras, such as the USB syncing mode and the contextual menu (such as setting playback mode or a photo as wallpaper). This Spinn also can be used to scan a certain place in a file or skipping quickly through a long menu list.

Used the Iriver Plus 3 software to have our files’ ID3 tag information recognized, which allows songs to be sorted by artist, album, playlist, and so on. This software is not recommended. Units with the MTP firmware should work seamlessly with jukeboxes such as Windows Media Player and Rhapsody.

In addition to music playback (in MP3, WMA, OGG, ASF, FLAC, and APE), the SPINN has integrated podcast support (under the music menu), and it plays back photos (JPEG, BMP, PNG, and GIF) and videos (MPGE4 SP, WMV9 SP, and XVID SP). Photos look great on the large, bright 262K Color AMOLED screen (480×272), and viewing angles are excellent. Videos also ok even with a bit of pixelation in the blacks. The Spinn also equipped with an FM tuner with autoscan, presets, and recording; a voice recorder; a text viewer; built-in Flash 2.0 for games, and stereo Bluetooth capability.
