iriver E30 Released in China, Israel

Tweet

iriver already showed off their E30 earlier this year, but the basic MP3 players are now shipping in certain countries in the world. iriver’s new E30 aims for the entry-level market niche, but sports an impressive 52-hour battery life.

The iriver E30 has been released in China and Israel. As for storage, the E30 comes in flavors of 2GB, 4GB and 8GB, with a 1.8″ color display. It’ll play any of the popular audio formats, and will even play SMV video. The real attraction here is the claim by iriver of a 52-hour battery life while listening to music. Of course, that’s their number and your results may vary. Watching that video cuts it down to a 10th – only 5 hours of battery life while watching video.

Other features of the no-frills MP3 Player include a FM tuner, with the ability to record radio, and a photo viewer. The 2GB model will cost you ₪250 in Israel, which roughly comes out to $66. No information is out on a possible European/US release, which is too bad because these would make great stocking-stuffers for the holiday season.
