Cnet.co.uk Review (Rated 7/10): "The iRiver E100 is a nice player with excellent sound quality and a good price. We feel it's still inferior to Creative's Zen or Apple's iPod nano in terms of screen quality, but its painfully simple operation makes it a good choice for MP3 newbies or Apple and Creative haters..."

Pocketables Review: "The iriver E100 is a stylish digital audio player that ups the ante with native FLAC support, built- in stereo speakers, microSD card expansion slot, and line-in recording functions on top of the usual feature set many expect to find on modern DAPs...."

anythingbutipod.com Review: "iRiver has always been known for some fantastic looking designs; modern, minimalist, and fashionable. The E100 is no exception and closely follows this high-design trend.

Trusted Reviews Review (Rated 7/10): "The latest player from iRiver - the 8GB E100 - comes from the opposite school of thought, putting practicality before looks. It's certainly not the greatest piece of hardware design I've ever come across, clad entirely in plain black plastic. Click over to the iRiver website and you'll see all sorts of sexy stock shots of the player..." Click here for the full review.
Pocket-Lint Review (Rated 7/10): "The iRiver E100 has clearly been designed as a rival to the Creative Zen, with audio and enhanced video playback. In terms of size, it's the same depth as a Zen but slightly narrower and longer. So, it comes as something of a shock to find the player generally feels bulky in the hand. It needs this depth to fit the 2.4-inch (QVGA) screen that is the main focus of the player..." Click here for the full review.
