Cowon D2 vs Iriver Clix v2

rayx2 · 02-12-2007, 10:28

So the new clix is out in korea.. can't wait to see what that has to offer

Clix and D2 looks pretty similar in style, except for the touchscreen

in general, the clix2 might actually be the better player (in my opinion). but the D2 has a 'WOW!' factor that the clix2 (or any iriver product) just can't touch (forgive the pun).

Compare the playback times

For me the battery and sound output was important. At both points the D2 wins.

very true and battery life is a big factor for me. however the clix2 has around 20 hours (IIRC) which is plenty for a lot of people. and while it's not as good as cowon, iRiver has good sound quality as well. It also has 8gb of storage as it's max price, as opposed to 4gb (not including SD cards). i believe it's also being released for cheaper, but don't take me word.

that being said, I'm glad a chose the D2. It's an absolutely stellar product.

everything about the d2 seems good, except for the fact that its hard to change songs without taking the d2 out from the pocket

actually, i've found if you SLOWLY run your finger along the side where the next button is, it'll pick up.

Do you mean that the D2 on most buttons only receives the "clicked" command only when you release the finger?
Anyway, I think thats great except for the slide bar...
It should slide with your finger..
But what I actually wanted to say, its ok to change songs with the custom. button(menu) or even with the Touch screen while the player is in your pocket...

as soon as SDHC support is added, were going to start seeing 12gb and 20gb D2´s, SDHC has a logical limiting factor of 32GB (imagen a 36GB D2)

hopefully SDHC will be added, but we are not sure if SDHC will get implemented or not, its just one of our "wishes"

Rockin_amigo14 · 02-12-2007, 19:21

and just because SDHC is added, that won't mean all the capacities will be supported either.

Wow, I just realized that the max data transfer spd
for clix is 480Mbps.
That's more than 10X faster than D2's.
And the design is just irresistible
Hmm, what to buy...
