Memorex iFlip for iPodStrengths: large screen, good video and audio, can charge ipod Weakness: unit is thick and heavy, design problems Video is good. Audio sounds okay. Battery life lasts about 5 hours. It's kind of thick and bulky, so not easily portable. When playing music, a graphical letter "M" is displayed, so could have screen burn problem if playing a lot of music with this. Things can get stuck in the speaker holes - poor design. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Jan 22, 2008 What version of IPod are you using with this Video system? I recently purchased this item from Walmart. When I connect my 160 GB IPod Classic the sound comes through, but not the video. On my IPod's display I get a message asking me to plug in a video source.

Memorex iFlip 8.4" for iPodStrengths: Screen size, extra 5 hours of video playback for iPod video Weakness: no remote control This portable video player for iPod video has a strong set of features. Your get to see your video on a 8.4 inch widescreen color LCD. Additionally one can extend the battery life of the iPod an additional 5 hours making this player ideal for viewing videos on long plane trips. The stereo speakers sound good. The player can also be used as an additional charger for your iPod. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Memorex iFlip 8.4" Portable Video System for IpodStrengths: nice sleek gloss black finish, great battery life, light weight, easy to use. Weakness: lack of features such as remote control, audio/video adjustments; the case is easy to get scratch up; a litte thick. After all, this unit is worth to buy consider the extra 5 hours battery life to watch couple movies on a flight. Other places sell the ipod external extended battery alone for $60. This system is not the best but sure is a stealth for the price I paid. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

iFlip 8.4" Portable Video SystemStrengths: Very light and portable. Easy to set up. Very nice little unit Weakness: None that I have found so far Setup on this machine is very easy. I really like the screen size and the weight of the unit. I found that it plays pictures and music very well and am going to play a video this weekend. I would definitely recommend this for anyone who has a video ipod and who like to view pictures and stuff on a bigger screen than just the little ipod screen! Did you find it helpful or unhelpful?

Cute Little Video Player
Strengths: The price I paid was amazing!
Weakness: Resolution could be better (you can see the pixels)
The old saying holds true to this little gem: you get what you pay for. Although, I only find one weakness with this product - that the picture quality is only fair at best, for the price it is an amazing unit. It is SO MUCH BETTER then trying to watch videos direct from you iPod, but it also charges your iPod while you watch. For the price, it is definitely worth the money unless you want a superior picture.
