Wolverine ESP 5120 (120GB)

price range: $299.95 - $349.99

Reviewed by: James Kim
Reviewed on: 09/25/2006

The good: The practical Wolverine ESP is available in up to 120GB; plays back music, video, and photo files and includes built-in memory card slots; includes an FM tuner and audio- and video-recording capabilities; plays a wide variety of unprotected formats; supports RAW photo images; removable battery; UMS and MTP modes; good GB-per-dollar value.

The bad: The Wolverine ESP is not DRM compatible; it has a somewhat mundane interface; not a wide-screen display; a tad bulky; must purchase cradle to record line-in audio or video.

The bottom line: The Wolverine ESP may not be a fancy portable video player/recorder, but it gets the job done, particularly for digital photo enthusiasts.

Read full review

Irvine, California-based Wolverine Data (creators of the memorable MVP) will soon be launching a portable video player (PVP) with up to 120GB. The Wolverine ESP joins a rapidly growing list of portable devices that can play back video and audio and display digital images, though this PVP is much more photo friendly than most. The ESP, which comes only in megasizes of 80GB ($399), 100GB ($449), or 120GB ($499), may not be an Archos 604, but it's a solid device with its own charms. I got to play with the product before its official October 3 launch. Note: Prices on Web site are higher than retail.

At 5.3 by 2.8 by 0.9 inches and 10.2 ounces, the Wolverine ESP is not supersleek and is far from sexy. It has much more of a utilitarian vibe than most media players due to its unassuming gray plastic exterior, 4:3 screen, and mundane user interface. Still, the unit's definitely pocketable and extremely durable, and importantly, it's intuitive. Plus it holds up to 120GB of data.

The Wolverine ESP (80GB) next to the Creative Zen Vision (30GB). The Creative's a better performer and sexier, but the ESP has some of its own charms.

To the right of the 3.6-inch 4:3 TFT display (320x240 pixels) is a nice five-way joystick. Above the joystick is a mediocre mono speaker, and under the joystick fall the tactile Menu, Escape, and Volume buttons. These controllers coupled with the simple GUI make the ESP one of the more straightforward devices I've used in a while. The only other buttons to pay attention to are the power and hold slider located on the right spine. The left side of the ESP is rounded and padded with a softer plastic (though still a little slippery); the ESP is designed for righties.

Photo-friendly PVP
You will notice two flip-open panels on top of the device: one is a CompactFlash Type I/II slot, the other an SD/MMC/MS slot. Stick a memory card in, and the ESP will ask to back up photos or the entire card. Transfer times are decent-- I backed up my CompactFlash card with 76 JPEGs and AVIs (about 55MB) in well under a minute. These files are placed into a new folder in the main menu's Backup option, and they are easy to access and view (either in list mode or thumbnail mode, with two rows of four thumbnails). Incidentally, the ESP's USB 2.0 transfer rates are speedy (55MB in about 10 seconds).

The ESP is also a seven-in-one media card reader.

The Wolverine ESP is a shutterbugs' PVP.

Of course, there are some MP3 players (such as the Toshiba Gigabeat S and the Cowon X5) that can move photos over directly from a digital camera, while others such as the Creative Zen Vision:W have a CompactFlash slot. Furthermore, there are PVPs including the Archos 04 series that make excellent photo viewers. But none of the mentioned can play back RAW files like the ESP. The ESP also displays full EXIF data, and photos look bright and sharp onscreen (though we've seen better resolution). You can easily zoom in and rotate.

The ESP is packin'
The ESP can also handle many other media types, including MP3,unprotected WMA and AAC, and WAV audio files, Motion JPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-4 (up to 720x480 at 25fps, 640x480 at 30fps), WMV9, and XviD video. As long as they're not DRM-protected, most of your files will play back without a hitch, and playback quality on the bright display is very good. Other files will most likely be converted in Windows Media Player. Conveniently, the ESP can be switched from MTP (PictBridge/Media Player) to UMS hard disk mode.

While the ESP GUI lacks the sizzle of those of the Archos 604 or Cowon A2, it's not a total bore. The main menu features low-color bit icons for Pictures, Music, Video, Backup, Audio Recorder, Video Recorder, Radio, and Game. Additionally, player settings, the Browse Hard Drive feature, and any inserted media cards will show up on page two of the options. All browsing is done folder-tree style, and all items (including the main menu) can be viewed in either icon or list mode. Conveniently, you can copy and paste any file into any folder. The background can be customized with any photo. The music playback screen doesn't show album art, but it does display pertinent file info and a sweet spectrum analyzer. You also get one on-the-go playlist, the unit is compatible with standard M3U playlists, and you get seven good equalizer presets and a custom setting that includes 3D enhancement. The ESP can feel very much like an MP3 player, and yes, it sounds pretty good.

The decent FM radio is recordable (AAC) and features a neat retro interface. You also get 18 presets in two groups, and stations are autoscannable. The ESP is a voice recorder out of the box (performance is good at the highest AAC recording setting), but to get line-in audio and video recording, you'll need to spring for the $69 dock. The good news is that the audio-recording interface features a real-time graphical sound-wave monitor (cool!). Video recording (MPEG-4, 352x240 at 30fps) can be scheduled (up to eight events), and content can even be recorded onto media cards. There is no TiVo-like programming or even channel selection, though. Recorded video looks good, and the accompanying AAC audio is solid.

Battery life is rated for 3 to 3.5 hours of video playback and 8 to 10 hours of audio. CNET Labs was able to muster about 13 hours of MP3 playback, definitely better than the mediocre rating. I'll update this review with results of video playback draining. Good news here is that the lithium-ion rechargeable battery is removable and is actually a pretty affordable standard model ($30; Sanyo UR-18650F). The ESP ships with an OK case, earbuds, audio and video cables, a USB cable, a small wall-wart power adapter, a CD, and a user's guide. As mentioned, the recommended docking cradle is $69. Additional accessories such as a remote control are available here.

The Wolverine ESP with its bundled accessories. The docking cradle, required for audio and video line-in recording, is an optional accessory.

Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the unit's file compatibility, features, and playback performance, though I'd personally still opt for the fancier Archos 404 or 604, or if I really wanted the extra storage, the $599 160GB Archos 504. But still, if you're a digital shutterbug and don't mind the non-wide-screen display and the lack of DRM support, the ESP is a very good choice, especially at $399 for the 80GB version (the 80GB Archos 504 is $499, the same price as the 120GB ESP).

Summary: I am former MPV owner which is rock solid device. As for the ESP this is a very attractive unit with user friendly interface, tech savy individuals will not need the user manual for basic video and music download and play. As good as this PMP is enough cannot be said about the outstanding customer service, you actualy get to speak to a live person and they are willing to take their time and explain things to you in easy to uderstand language(you dont feel like they are rushing to get you off the phone). I had a issue with my unit's hard drive, and since i live in Southern Cali. I drove down and the problem was resolved in less than one hour.
I can go on but here is the bottom line, this is a rock solid media player that is easy to use, if you have a problem they treat you like a CUSTOMER, they appreciate and respect the fact you spent your money on their product and they will resolve any issue promply and with smile.

Lovin' my new toy!

by thruthelenz on November 26, 2006

Pros: Huge storage capacity. Everything you want in one "gadget". Much nicer than the MVP.

Cons: The music library could offer categories for easier access. Also, there's a very minor problem with audio and video matching up exactly. (a "patch" is forthcoming)

Summary: I'm a professional wedding photographer. I'll admit it; I like toys! I will also admit to not being very technically saavy, so please read this review with the understanding that I don't have experience with similar products from other manufacturers. But, here's what I do know: I don't want to be carrying around lots of gadgets; give me everything in one tool. I don't need something that can be hidden in the palm of my hand; in this case, size doesn't really matter that much. I've had my 100gb ESP for about a month now, and have been extremely happy with it. I can keep everything in one fairly handy tool. For imaging, it's great for both personal and professional reasons. I can store, back-up, and do on-site proofing with the ESP. I also wanted music or movies available for those times when I'm working, playing or waiting for customers or my kids. I've hooked it up in my car, to my vcr, video monitors and to televisions. It has great sound through the headphones. I also liked the idea of voice recording - although I still haven't used it for that. The battery is extremely reliable. Because I was concerned about the possibility of being on a trip and running out of "juice", I purchased the RoadPac accessory kit - which includes a car charger, a "AA" battery pack that recharges your ESP battery 2-3 times, and a soft-sided case - which I don't need, but by buying the kit, it was free. I also purchased the optional cradle, because I wanted to add some of our movies to the hard drive for long road trips, and possibly to record from television. There is, of course, a bug or two that needs to be worked out, but so far, it's so minor that it's almost not worth mentioning in the "cons" section. Granted, anyone who loves iPods will probably not love this tool. The ESP is bigger, isn't as quick to get around in when looking for specific musical artists or songs, and isn't as "sexy" as an iPod. Okay, that being said, the surface of the ESP doesn't scratch easily, the screen is bigger, it has more storage capacity, can be used as a DVR for your home library or television programs (i.e. it's not limited by having to be hooked up only to a computer for incoming data), it can copy any of 7 types of memory cards without additional accessory purchases, and you can even listen to the radio with it if you'd like. Oh, and although it leaves alot to be desired, the ESP does have a built-in speaker, so you can share music or movies with a group of people and everyone can hear at the same time. Having the versatility of a 7-in-1 card reader is exceptional. At a recent family reunion, where there were 3 different memory card styles being used in several different family members' cameras, I was able to immediately copy each of their cards onto my ESP, so I didn't miss a single shot from anyone's camera. That was awesome! How many times have you asked someone to e-mail you a photo, and it never comes? It's just another great way to use this device. I really believe that the ESP suits my needs quite well, so going the way of an iPod didn't feel right, and the price is actually pretty reasonable, comparably. My kids both have iPods and love them, they're great, easy to use and maneuver around in, etc. etc. But for me, a technically-challenged professional photographer who takes hundreds of thousands of photos each year; this seemed to be a better choice. For further reference, I owned the MVP before this - it was big and ugly, the joystick made me a little crazy, and there was no "hold" feature for the power button, which meant that, often times, I would open my bag and find it "on". Still, it worked well, never failed me, and although it stuck out like a sore thumb, it gave me confidence in what Wolverine was producing. So, after using it for a month, I can honestly say that, from color to quality, the ESP is a great improvement over the MVP, no question. Now, if they'd just add a cell phone and scheduling software with a keyboard, I could travel everywhere with this one device! I'll keep dreaming of that, but for now, the ESP has really "delivered" as a reliable and entertaining multimedia storage device.

Summary: This machine seems wonderful out of the box, radio, game,recorder,backup. I ve been shooting for 19 years and am not an angry person take this information for what it is worth, I bought this item so as to backup images instead of carrying a lap top thru Thailand. The machine was purchased 16 months ago but never used just charged to keep battery up. The ESP was only used for this trip/job. So loaded images into system on CF and SD cards from Nikon and Leica systems. After 21 days after downloading machine froze! First the machine had hard time shutting down then the battery fell out during shut down stage which caused the HD to crash reset button never worked. I am not hard on gear in no way,my gear is how I make my living so I treat it well. Back in USA, Sent to company they charged shipping both ways after asking RA #'s and explained there should be no problem just needed to reset HD (not format)! 2 weeks later said they could not fix, hard drive broken, nor can they give me any idea of what went wrong, this never happens! Read into Amazon reviews way down the list some people not so happy. SO if you are serious about your money or making images. Best bet buy a Apple lap top $999 and Hard drive $120 and go that route or carry enough cards for work. This also enables emails and music movies for $700.00 more! The Wolverine ESP is a waste of time and your hard earned money. I am just passing on info so to save you $300+ and some stress. Please don't take this as a angry review did I get a lemon who knows can YOU take that risk. Am I upset sure but mostly that the machine didn't perform very well.

Summary: ITHE ONLY NEGATIVE I FOUND IS THAT AFTER I HAD THE ESP FOR A LITTLE OVER A MONTH, IT WOULDN'T READ MY COMPACT FLASH CARDS. I CALLED TECH SUPPORT AND TALKED TO RICO. HE WAS VERY INFORMED ON THE ESP AND AFTER WE TRIED A FEW THINGS, HE DETERMINED THAT I NEEDED TO SEND IT IN FOR REPAIR. I SENT IT IN AND WITHIN ABOUT 2 WEEKS TALKED TO RICO AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT HE HAD TO REPLACE THE BOARD BECAUSE MY SANDISK CARD HAD PUSHED A PIN BACK IN AND COULDN'T READ THE CARDS. I WAS GLAD TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM UNTIL HE TOLD ME THAT SINCE IT WAS THE SANDISK CARD THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM I HAD TO PAY $120.00 FOR REPAIR. THIS SEEMED VERY UNREASONABLE BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WARNING ABOUT WHICH CARDS TO USE TO VOID THE WARRANTY. HE TOLD ME TO SWITCH ALL MY CARDS TO LEXAR OR IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN. I ONLY HAD 11 SANDISK CARDS SO I WAS REALLY HAPPY TO HEAR THIS(SARCASTIC). I HAVE NOW SWITCHED TO LEXAR AND HAD NO PROBLEM(ABOUT A MONTH). I'M SORRY BUT THE $120.00 CHARGE WAS BULL. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. TO ME I MEANS I JUST PAID $120 MORE FOR THE UNIT AND COULD HAVE BOUGHT A BETTER ONE FOR THAT MONEY.I REALLY LIKE THE UNIT AND IT DOES WHAT IT IS MEANT TO DO BUT I GUESS YOU HAVE TO WATCH WHAT CARDS YOU USE. DON'T PLAN ON USING THE WARRANTY.

Summary: I have been looking for a less expensive version of the Epson P series multimedia photo viewer and the wolverine ESP is it. Dollar for dollar it offers what the Epson offers but more capacity for the money. Since I am not using it as a music player (that's what I-Pods are for) the DRM issue is a non-issue for me. It does everything I need it to do and does it well. The joystick is a little finicky but, nothing I can't live with. The hard disk is upgradeable by just opening it up and plugging in a bigger hard disk. All of the OS is on ROM. This does void the warranty so, I'll wait a year to do it.

Useful - functionality - 5, reliability 3 (firmware?)

by ohiophotoguy on September 7, 2008

Pros: I shoot a lot of Raw / JPEG paired images - as a result, I eat Compact Flash cards like popcorn. The battery life is good enough to last thru an entire day of shooting.

Cons: After 3 years, the hard drive seems to have pooped out. (I use this device far less than I use my laptop - and they both use the same drive technology).

Summary: Bottom line........ I don't use the audio or video features - I use my Itouch for that. But I do like the ability to just dump cards on to ...

Summary: Bottom line........ I don't use the audio or video features - I use my Itouch for that. But I do like the ability to just dump cards on to the device, back them automatically and then keep on shooting. However, my biggest concern is related to a PS2002 error that I am getting on the device on an intermittant basis. This never happened until I reformatted the drive using the onboard ESP utilities. And, no, it has never been dropped, and I have the most current firmware on the device. The Wolverine customer service people are friendly, and helpful and had the device still been in warrenty, they would have replaced the drive. Unfortunatly, it was out of warrenty. Still, the device was solid until I reformatted it using the ESP reformat function. I will replace the 80gb drive with something much bigger (160 - 200?) and assuming that the PS2002 error goes away (not real comfortable about that yet), I will continue to use this. It's much lighter than a laptop and has a much smaller form factor. I can recharge the device from any USB connection that is powered - including my 12Volt to USB adapter which means I can recharge it in the car. I can use it as an external hard drive AND I can show off the images that I took without having to search thru a bunch of CF cards, find a laptop, etc.

I like this little machine, I am just uncomfortable about the PS2002 error that comes and goes and never existed before I reformatted using the Woverine ESP reformat function. By the way, it does have the LATEST firmware loaded on it.

If you buy it, don't reformat it. Just delete the folders from your PC after downloading. It is useful, very functional and handles all of my JPG's,and Nikon NEF images wonderfully.

Summary: I'm going to bite the bullet and buy one of these units. I was looking for a portable media storage device that uploads photos and video recording with sound. I wanted one with a nice size screen as well. To get a unit that also is FM Radio and records TV shows is an added bonus. The built in microphone will come in handy when viewing and storing photos. No more having to buy extra flash cards to take on trips. Also can be used to download music files.
Yep, this is the gizmo ( and options) I want under my tree this Christmas....hands down.

Best way to justify purchasing a PVP when you already have a laptop

by bitofbetterbutter on December 9, 2006

Pros: works like an external HDD with multi card reader

Summary: The LCD on my Canon S3 is small, so I need to view photos in a larger screen. On top of that, we have 2 digicams with different media so I end up toting my laptop on trips to view and offload the shots at the end of each day. This often means leaving my laptop in a hot car or sitting out in some hotel room - I'm not comfortable with either of those situations and it happens far too often.
Now the Wolverine ESP seems to be designed for people like me - gadget junkies who have everything they need but want more, yet need to justify $400 purchases to the spouse. With a built-in multi card reader, 80 - 120GB of storage and a design focused on displaying photos (to include many different RAW formats in case you own a dSLR - next year's XMas present I hope...), this little beauty has it all built in.
My unit is still in transit, so the real user review will show up around 12/15. I'll cover screen resolution as compared to the smaller ipod video, process for transferring my existing MP4 video collection, and any observations regarding quality of hardware, video playback, and sound. There aren't many reviews on this device, so I wanted to get something online for my fellow xmas shoppers.
