iRiver B30 review
The new iRiver B30 is a DAB+ MP3 and video player that is expected to prove extremely popular now that digital radio has had a widespread launch in Australia.
In fact, at this stage the iRiver B30 is the only player on the market that can display images that are broadcast digitally, giving it an automatic headstart over other DAB+ ready MP3 players.
In a nutshell, digital radio offers you improved sound and features, as well as more stations, and the B30 does a reasonable job of taking advantage of these benefits. It comes with a telescopic aerial to assist reception as well as a range of sound settings.
Aside from the digital radio functionality, the iRiver B30 also offers support for a range of audio and video formats, including MP3, WMA, WAV, OGG, DivX, WMV… and lots more. Rounding out the package: a built-in speaker for sharing your music with friends, video subtitles and a microSD slot for expanding the on-board memory.
The iRiver B30’s Australian price is $299 for the 8GB version, with a 16GB version also on the way.
