So, should you pick up the HiFi Walker H2?
Well, that really depends on what youre looking for.
The HiFi Walker really ticks as many connectivity options as it can.
The design is another area that needed a second draft: its basically a big bulky block.
Perhaps the most questionable area is the software though, which would be most aptly described as harebrained.
I could never work out if I should play songs from the explorer menu or category.
There are two different configs menus with options randomly scattered between the two.
Thats not the machine being tested for this review.
So what features does the HiFi Walker H2 have on board?
Otherwise, the H2 is distinctly feature-bare.
One is not included in the box.
Its fair to say that the H2 has more buttons in more places than a Bop-It game.
The screen measures 2 inches diagonally, with a resolution of 320 x 240.
Unlike most rivals its not a touchscreen.
Instead, youre using that scroll wheel to navigate menus.
It couldnt be simpler!
By default, the HiFi Walker H2 has 64GB memory for storage.
The user interface layout of this MP3 player is illogical and confusing.
So which of those options do you press so that explore your library of songs?
If you picked explore youre wrong, its category.
What about to change the system-wide wallpaper?
If you picked system tweaks, youre once again wrong, its just tweaks.
Same as with the back button and foward/backward buttons too.
The players default sound quality is slap-bang neutral: dont expect any booming basses or shrill trebles here.
Its inoffensive but lovely and balanced.
Should I buy the HiFi Walker H2?
Buy it if…
If you miss that, you’ll enjoy navigating this.
Its default microSD card is smaller though.
The testing was done simultaneously to several other MP3 players to give some context to it.
