Creative Muvo2 4GB. Ipod anyone?

Advantages: Small, light and has a blue backscreen.
Disadvantages: Hard to navigate songs, doesn't come with remote, battery life.

...In the world of portable MP3 players we once had only a small choice of players, and they had only a few sizes available. 32MB, 64MB, 128MB or 256MB. They may or may not have upgradable functions and they costed a mint. But now we have bigger and better MP3 players such as the Creative Muvo2 4GB with 4,000MB storage. No need for upgrades anymore, there's more than enough space for a few albums and a documentary on fish fingers. Yes this Muvo2 has the capacity and it is small, smaller than it's rival the IPOD Mini in fact and lighter too. It can play WMA files as well as MP3 files and has a very nice neon electric blue backlight for it's screen. The Muvo2 comes with 2 USB2 cables (1 long 1 short) so that songs can be transferred from PC to the player. Since it is USB2 the speed of transfer is very very fast. Before you would make...

Creative Muvo2 4GB

Advantages: Very small, easy interface, great sound quality
Disadvantages: Occassionally crashes, small screen

...Having researched a variety of portable MP3 players i decided to purchase the Creative NOMAD MUVO2. It cost £146 and comes with a 4GB mini hard drive that can store approx 1000 MP3s. Although i made my purchase through ebay you can pick the muvo2 up for anything between £175 - 230 in retail outlets and from the web. First impressions count for a lot as far as i am concerned and i wasn't dissapointed. The muvo2 is very small (about the size of a pack of 20 cigarettes) so it is easy to carry in your pocket without noticing it. It is available in 2 colours, black or silver (silver looks the better). So why did i go for the muvo2? Well, firstly, its made by Creative who are renound for producing quality audio equipment, secondly, the size and thirdly the price. As with most electrical equipment there are always disadvantages...

Review of Creative ZEN V 4 GB

Solid effort from Creative

Advantages: Built-in speakers, easy to use and durable player
Disadvantages: Permanently backlit display

...is very similar to that of other Zen mp3 players so if you've had another Zen then nothing will be a shock in terms of how to work it. The only thing that I've found which appears to be different is that the backlight seems to stay on the whole time. There might be an option to turn this off but it hasn't really bothered me enough to want to find out if there's a way to turn it off. I also found that the range of compatible accessories is good for the Mosaic, I have the speakers and an armband for the gym. Overall I'm very pleased with it, I'm not sure I like the look of it quite as much as the V+ but it does actually look better in person that from pictures on the internet. I'm not a hardcore music fan so 4GB is fine for me but if you want more than 8GB then you might be better picking another player. I can heartily recommend it though...

Nano 4GB

Advantages: Tiny
Disadvantages: Scared it will snap!

...I bought my first Nano a week ago and have had to take it back to the shop to change it already. For some reason I had problems getting it to turn on sometimes but the shop exchanged it for me and the new one seems to be fine. To being with, it really is a small as the adverts make out, if not smaller. When I first saw it I was shocked! The 4GB can hold approx 1000 songs and can also store photos but this obviously takes up memory so the more photos you have, the fewer songs you can store. Apparently the first batch of Nano's had problems with the screen cracking and people have said to be careful of forgeting its in your pocket and sitting down. This didn't surprise me as it is so thin but I have sat on it a number of times! Once for 40 mins in a lecture and it has been fine! It does more than just store music and photos though...

The Krystal screams as a perfect attire attachment for the ?oil-barrens ball? and a spritzer twist that now has become...

Review of Creative Zen Krystal 4GB

The best small 4GB MP3 player -No its NOT an IPOD!

Advantages: Small & Sleek design, Can store any file format
Disadvantages: Small screen (although it still gives all the information you ever need)

...OK, so I may be a bit bias as I have a MuVo2 & not an IPOD, but read on & decide for yourself! A couple of months ago I started looking for some personal audio that could play hours of music without me having to change CDs or anything (so I didn't have to have an endless supply of CDs in the office). I finally settled on a CD/MP3 player which allowed me to burn any songs I wanted onto a CD (fitting around 170 on a disc). However I only used this for a couple of months as I managed to win this MP3 player through 'Nuts' magazine (please don't call me that!). I have since looked at some prices & it can be found from £150 to £200 depending where you look. The MuVo2 4GB has the same memory as the apple ipod mini. It weighs the same as a small mobile phone (about 91g) & although it is 15mm wider & 6mm deeper, it is a massive 25mm shorter...

Creative Zen V

Advantages: small, lightweigt, good price
Disadvantages: not many accessories,

...I bought a creative zen 4GB because i wanted a good quality mp3 player, which held a decent amount of music, but i wasnt particularly bothered about getting an iPod, because i think theyre a bit overpriced. i chose the 4GB because i dont have loads of music, but wanted something which held a decent amount. What i really liked about the Zen V when i was looking to buy something was its clear screen, which is a feature of the iPod which i like, and i also think its quite well priced. when i got the Zen, i wasn´t disappointed! it looks good, its small, lightweight, and very easy to carry around. A lot of my friends who have iPods complain that they scratch easily, but ive had my zen nearly 2 months, and its taken a few knocks and is well used, but still looks like new. It comes with head phones, but they have foam bits on them...
