A power walker’s guide to the Intel Pocket Concert player

by tanster Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 05 '01
Pros: Compact, light, large storage capacity, excellent sound quality
Cons: Poor FM tuner reception
If you’ve read any of my other reviews, you know that I love to eat. In the course of the past year, this pastime has landed me in a state of, shall we say, augmented density.

It was time to dust off the ol’ treadmill and go for...

Out on the Town in Intel's Portable Concert! (updated review)

by yusakugo Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Apr 09 '01
Pros: 128MB of memory for $300! Sound Quality, FM Tuner, Good headphones!
Cons: Extra for accessory kit, little larger than other MP3 players, cheaper more expandable options available.
In the field of flash memory MP3 players, a new competitor enters the market. But... Intel? What business does Intel have coming into this field? Well folks, the answer will surprise you... it certainly surprised me.

A Problem In My Pocket

by ReviewerScott , Oct 11 '01
Pros: Good volume, comes with a belt clip
Cons: Very poor radio reception, childish headphones, memory isn't expandable.
I'm confounded by the ecstatic reviews given the Intel Pocket Concert Audio Player (IPC)in the computer press and here on Epinions. And while I have the greatest respect for the other reviewers here, I must respectfully disagree.

This is the...

This is the best flash MP3 player out there

by spideymd , Apr 24 '01
Pros: Small, sturdy, lightweight, FM tuner, loud volume, good headphones, 128 MB
Cons: No rechargeable batteries, changing FM presets requires 3 turns/clicks for each change
There are a LOT of MP3 players on the market right now, and it is hard to decide which one to buy. I have read multiple reviews/ratings/critiques prior to buying the Intel Pocket Concert Digital Audio Player, and I have to say that I am very satisfied....

Pros: Size, Volume, Functionality, Durability, Versatility, 128Meg
Cons: Slow music transfer, What FM radio?, software bundle, Expensive
Intel's Pocket Concert is one of the best portable devices that I have ever owned. Nothing beats the convenience of having this as portable audio solution.

1. Sound Quality- Very good if you rip at 160 bit rate or better. It really depends...

Finally, the right one

by watsondog , Jul 19 '01
Pros: Superior audio quality, portability and durability
Cons: Inferior FM tuner, accessory pack virtually impossible to find in Canada
The Intel Pocket Concert (IPC) was my third MP3 player in a week. I had become so frustrated by the SonicBlue Rio 600 and the RCA K@zoo that I decided to avoid the low end of the market and go for the best. I'm glad I did.

I have never...

I bought the Intel Pocket Concert several months ago, and for the most part I have been quite pleased with its performance. Some of the factors that influenced my decision to purchase this model included:

A must have toy

by mvtton , Apr 04 '01
Pros: Lots of memory, easy and intuitive to use, excellent software, rapid USB transfer
Cons: Dorky Intel logo
I have waited for over a year for the right MP3 player to come along. And of all places it comes from Intel! Anyhow, I have used my friends MP3 players for a while. My main beef with them has been either not enough memory ( or ridiculously expensive...

Who needs a stadium concert, when you can have a Pocket Concert!

by hurttc21 , Aug 04 '01
Pros: Compact yet easy to use.
Cons: Belt Clip could be improved.
There are so many reasons to buy the Intel Pocket Concert MP3 player, I hope I can remember them all! The product comes with 128MB of built-in memory (not upgradeable), an FM tuner, a belt clip, and some very comfy ear phones. With 128MB of memory I...

Intel Got This One Right

by bub78 , Aug 05 '01
Pros: great form factor; excellent sound quality; relatively inexpensive
Cons: non-upgradable memory; cannot delete/reorder tracks on-the-fly
After years of yearning for a portable mp3 player, I finally purchased the Intel Pocket Concert about two months ago ($50 off and a free accessory kit helped the decision). Overall this little silver gadget has been one of my better purchases, and I...

This is a GREAT little Mp3 player

by hawkeye_1 , Jan 09 '02
Pros: Lots of pros such as great design, plenty of memory, great features, etc..
Cons: Cheap looking headphones, transfer rate is a little slow, low battery life.
If you are looking for an mp3 player that is small, light and compact with just enough space, look no further. If you are looking for players that hold many more songs you will have to move to the large, bulky, expensive players.

This Intel...

Compact and a breeze to get going.

by mimimc , Jan 05 '02
Pros: Tiny! And so easy to set up and use. Good headphones. Lots of storage space.
Cons: Not expandable beyond the 128 mb, but really .. that's plenty.
Last August, my husband bought me an MP3 player for a birthday gift, so that I could take my music on my daily run/walk. The idea was that an MP3 player would be small and skip-free. He had researched them thru Consumer Reports and on their...

Pros: Memory capacity, size and shape, sound quality, headphones, controls and ease of operation
Cons: No case. Garish logos and color of headphones.
Before we begin, I want you to know that I'm speaking from experience and that I've lived with a variety of MP3 players over the last few years (in chronological order):

Not a good deal

by dracoa1 , Dec 16 '01
Pros: Nice display, easy to install/use, uses MusicMatch (the best!)
Cons: Trend of malfunctioning headphone jacks, nil FM reception, feels cheap, "accessory" pack sold separate
When I was looking for an MP3 player, I read all kinds of great reviews on the Intel and Amazon had a decent deal going on combining the player with the accessory pack.

Once I actually got the player, I opened it up and set it up without a...
