Iriver has launched a 5Gb version of its H10 MP3 player to offer its customers 2500 songs on the go. The H10 [5GB pure] is from the same mould as the H10 [5GB] and features a colour display, touchpad, aluminum casing, space for 2500 songs and perfect sound quality.

By removing the built-in FM tuner, iriver has eliminated the considerably steeper import duty on radio equipment and passed the savings directly on to customers – but definitely not at the expense of high-end audio enjoyment and elegant design.

The H10 [5GB pure] will weight a mere 96 grams and packs a 260k 1.5in colour LCD into its 95 x 54 x 15 mm frame.

The player also features a clock/alarm function, a built-in microphone for voice recording and a removable, rechargeable battery for up to 12 hours playback time.

Thirty equalizer presets and for audio enthusiasts, a manual equalizer enables the sound to be customized to the users exact requirements. Multi-codec playback guarantees support for a variety of formats, including MP3, WMA and ASF.

The iriver H10 [5GB pure] will come in four different colours – midnight blue, deep red, neo silver and slate grey – at a price of £159 .
