Cowon Reveals iAudio U5 MP3 Player

Posted in Cowan,Media Players by Darrin Olson on September 2nd, 2007

Cowon iAudio U5 digital audio playerCowon introduced the iAudio U5 media player at IFA this week and while it has a slimmer and simpler design than the iAudio 7 that Cowon released in June, we don’t find the looks of the U5 quite as appealing.

The player is an audio player only, sporting a 1.8″ TFT LCD with 128×160 resolution and uses an on board equalizer to fine tune MP3 and WMA files. You can also use it to record the FM radio through a built-in tuner or do direct voice recording to the player through its microphone. The iAudio U5 has a rechargeable battery with as much as 20 hours of playback and comes in capacities of 2GB, 4GB and 8GB and can double as mass storage through a USB 2.0 connection.

There was no word on pricing or availability quite yet, but from the common-item feature set this looks like it will be a relatively affordable DAP from Cowon.

    Where can I find your troubleshooting guide? My mp3 is not even 1 month old yet & for some strange reason it won’t turn on!
