Creative Nomad Jukebox 2 10 GB > Reviews

Advantages: More memory, tons of feature and sound quality!
Disadvantages: FM tuner....and price

I got into this not knowing anything about MP3 players,, but with a bug to buy one after I read an article in a magazine.After reading numerous reviews, I narrowed down to the Nomad and the Rio. Based purely on looks (two things concerned me with this product, no expanded memory option and weak sound through the headphones) I went with the Nomad. And the price on Amazon pretty much blew away any competitive vendor. I got the product and have been ... Read review

Advantages: Large space, reasonably portable can be plugged into most speakers
Disadvantages: More cumbersome than most

I love this player. I bought it with high hopes and i was not let down. This is one player that does what it says. It holds thousands of songs from cd or internet and allows you to take them with you. The interface is very intuitive with almost all browsing functions being done with one wheel/button. The transfers are easy as well just plug it straight into you r computer and you can either imort from disk or drag and drop. One additional ... Read review

Advantages: Speed, Weight, Looks like a normal CD player, Ease of Use
Disadvantages: Size, Headphones

i spent almost a month attempting to select the right mp3 player for myself. I tried small ones, that would fit into shirt pockets, i tried fashionable ones, like the iPod. But this player stood out of the crowd. I thought it was a CD player put in the wrong place in the store, until i picked it up. The player is remarkably light for it's size and looking like a CD player is an advantage when potential thieves see it. iPod's are extremely recognizable ... Read review

Advantages: huge capacity drive, easy menus
Disadvantages: tricky scroll wheel, slight glitches when fuller

ok, i admit it *standing up with my hand on my heart* I'm Andy... and I'm a musicoholic! I'm not even going to start on how much music i have but i worked out about 18 months ago that there was no way it was gonna work just having a minidisc player anymore, even on mono so i decided to get an MP3 player. Many people now would say they looked around, found features, battery life, music types etc... well, to tell the truth i bought this cuz it ... Read review

Advantages: It's better than Data Becker
Disadvantages: Risky

...Music Center Pro (apologies to Creative Labs for dumping it on their category). I'd been looking for some decent music making software for quite some time and I'd more or less settled on cakewalk as my application of choice. A week or so ago, however, I saw the Data Becker software in a Makro shop retailing at £16.99 and in a mad moment of excitement I bought it. You know what it's like, you rush home with your new toy, gleefully slip it out ... Read review

Advantages: light, good design, tuner etc.
Disadvantages: pricey - but worth it

Over the last year MP3 players have established themselves as the most portable and cost effective method of listening to music on the move. The Nomad II is a real gem. The sleek design and crisp mellow sound with solid bass will blow you away. Within an hour of buying it I was jogging round the park to the sound of Rocky - Eye of the Tiger. You can't get a more inspiritainol piece of music than that! It is great for running etc. as it is lightweight ... Read review

Advantages: Fairly light, large battery.
Disadvantages: Difficult to master, quite noisy HDD.

...practise. A nice touch by Creative was to include tutorials on the player be default, which proved very useful (Especially for the slower of us, eg me:P) and the player is quite durable, which is useful for going cycling. All in all I'd give the player 9 out of 10. I'd recommend it for someone on their second MP3 player. The advanced features are a bonus when you get used to them, but are complicated to use. The sound quality is superb, and I really ... Read review

Advantages: Sound doesn't skip, easy to use
Disadvantages: Expensive

...it lives up to the creative name, it is excellent and has all the features you would need and expect in a player this price. All in all I think this Player is extremely good value and is a worthwhil Asset.Go out and buy one now. If you are always out and about this would appeal to you even more, because as there is no moving parts in a MP3 player the sound will not skip. Perfect sound. ... Read review

Advantages: Remote control, FM Tuner, Voice recording, GREAT LOOK, little weight.
Disadvantages: No internal memory pack.

I imported this player from the USA and I am stunned both by its sound quality and its beauty. Its sleek, silky, smooth and plays great. Although it comes in three different colours, I believe the silver casing definitely looks the best. The software provided is second to none (nothing else can be expected from CREATIVE) and it is future proof because you can download drivers from their site. I bought it with the 64 mb memory pack which is very useful ... Read review

Advantages: It has the EAX tehnology which delivers a superb sound quality and effects. With this MP3 player you an record meetings, seminars, keep a voice diary and transfer to you PC.
Disadvantages: Software for transffering files to player is not too easy.

...rates and easy to use. The Creative PlayCenter is used to transfer files, but here I must say that this software is not so easy to use. It comes with a 64 MB SmartMedia flash card that is enough to listen up to 20 music files. You can listen radio when you're music borred you. Information is displayed on a large LCD screen (with backlight for using in any environment. Has a memory for shocking protection. This allow for a couple of minutes of ... Read review

Advantages: good
Disadvantages: expensive

Don’t worry if like me you didn’t know much about MP3 players, well neither did I. Until, a friend explained the concept. My friend has one of these MP3 players, but it’s really difficult to chose one, there are quite a lot in the market but this is pretty neat looking and if you need a reason then that’s one. It’s got a lot of memory for a lot of songs, and it’s small and easily portable. It looks something ... Read review

Advantages: Amount of Space
Disadvantages: Slightly concerned they might be a bit too big

...haven't used any of the Creative Labs MP3 players, but I would like to express my views anyway. Before I heard of these, I thought MP3 players were really good, and I was thinking about buying one. Then I saw the Creative Labs MP3 players, and reconsidered totally. They're a great breakthrough in MP3 technology, storing more than 150 times more music than conventional players. I figure they must just be a portable hard drive, with a built in MP3 player. ...
