A Creative Finger Job

Advantages: Finger licking yummy PMP
Disadvantages: Lacks WiFi interactivity

...Welcome to the Creative Zen X-FI2 Released - Sept 2009 - X-FI2 - UK Storage ? 8GB RRP ? 99.99 GBP Introduction -------------- It?s been barely one year since the debut of the X-FI and the X-FI2 is fully loaded and equipped for you the techie masses. A month is a long-time in the world of an abundant MP3 market-place. The most contested area in the digital media world. Creative may have sent the potato-head into production into recent years; but is it a ploy for something else to emerge that will at least compete with the iPod. ? Creative certainly has the backing of many major businesses within the technologies available. So I might as well stick my head out of the window and broadcast a stance that 2010 could be very much a ?Creative? year; and it...

Creative Zen Micro-photo 8gb

Advantages: Solid, reliable brilliant sound quaity
Disadvantages: Chunky, bundled software is a pain, touch interface may annoy some users

...I recieved my creative zen micro photo as a replacement for my late Ipod mini (4gb), I was shocked when I initially tore open the packaging with an unnatural force, inside I found: *My creative zen microphoto (in black) *Creative earphones (Quality wasn't great, obviously a knock-off of the *Ipod headphones) *Leather pouch *battery *CD with software *cable Lets start with the Zen, ok, it has no buttons and some users will find the toch-interface quite annoying (as my freind put is a f***ing waste of time) the screen quality could be better and the photo-display mode seems to be a bit of a gimmick, (the photos are blurry). I only really needed the Zen for music and, after uploading the songs onto it (this can be done with media player or the bundled software which is complicated and harder to use than...

Ipod Touch 8Gb with engraving

Advantages: All the features of the iphone but without the massive price tag
Disadvantages: battery life could be better

...--Background-- I bought the iPod touch for my son for his 10th birthday. Before he alerted me to the item I knew nothing at all about it. Having played around with it for a few hours, I can now see what all the fuss is about as this item is so addictive. The touch comes in 3 guises, namely 8Gb, 16Gb and 32Gb versions. These are all identical apart from, obviously the storage capacity. --In the box-- I must admit that then the box came, I thought half the order had been missed as it is minute! Along with the ipod itself, you get the headphones, a usb to pc charger and a quick setup guide. Although this seem very little, it is actually enough to get you up and running in next to no time. As we bought this direct from the Apple store we were entitlted to free engraving on the back of the device. We took the decision to have his...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

THE 8GB MUSIC PLAYER.

Advantages: LARGE MEMORY, SOUND OUTPUT AND LONG BATTERY LIFE.
Disadvantages: : FRAGILE IN LOOKS.

...the I pod touch makes it quite a different and unique. The I pod touch is capable of storing large capacity of information well what actually do you think of a device that that has 8gb memory space. Like I wrote above, it is capable of 1500 to 1700 songs and on the other hand, capable of storing 10,000 pictures and also capable of playing video for the duration of 10 hours. In terms of videos, you can equally upload videos just like in music. You can upload movie but the issue with it is that the more you videos you put, the less you space In the music section, we have many categories like the album, artist, song title and genre these are the categories that make it very possible for you to make easy selections of your music. But what I don't like about the device is lack of external loudspeaker so it then means that if by mistake you...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

  iPod Touch 8GB

Advantages: intuitive, stylish, fun, great music player, variety of features, internet function
Disadvantages: fingerprints! no camera, no built in speakers, only available in black currently

... 8GB iPod Touch As my boyfriend's birthday approached, I was panicking as to what to get him as men are a nightmare to shop for and I really wanted to get something exciting. I noticed that he kept borrowing my ipod nano and initially planned to get him one of his own but on the Apple website I saw the ipod touch and worked out that if I got him that then I could steal it and use it! From the Apple website, the 8GB iPod Touch cost me £199 with free postage and packing and a free optional engraving. I thought this was a reasonable price it was nice and simple to order it online. I chose the free engraving option and this enabled me to have a two line engraving on the back (top centre) of the ipod. Obviously, it is a very good idea to check your spelling at this point as the ipod cannot be returned due your mistakes when...

Apple itouch 8GB

Advantages: Stylish, easy to use, large storage, good features, wi-fi
Disadvantages: Long to switch on/off, browser can be slow, may freeze at times

...Having gone from a normal 4GB ipod to an 8GB itouch, I was pleasantly surprised with the major difference from the normal ipod to itouch. The itouch offers the users with an array of different features I never thought could be possible for a MP3/4 player. Its Wi-Fi capabilities allow its users to keep up-to-date with the latest news, music and events by using the built in web browser to search for any categories the users pleases. The "Maps" features allows users to find directions to their destination so they always find their way home. The ability to search and play YouTube video is a good feature that no one can get bored of. Away from the extra features, the stored MP3s can be found and played a lot more easily with the touch screen feature and are of high quality. Due to its 8GB storage space, the ability to upload and photos to...

8GB Ipod Touch

Advantages: Wii-fi support, touch screen display, ease of use
Disadvantages: quite pricey, output through headphones just, unless you by a docking station

...One things for sure Ipods are getting more popular by the day as more features and different designs are being introduced to these almost everyday necessities. I purchased the 8gb version 3 months or so back and ive been really please with it. It stands out from the rest as it has a large screen for viewing videos and photo's, but not only that it has the built in touch sensitive display which is very easy to use and im sure very popular. It has also introduced the new wii-fi so that you can connect to a wireless connection whether it be from the comfort of your home or in a coffee shop etc. when you go to i-tunes ur music and files can be transferred to your ipod within seconds though videos take a bit longer. All in all id say this product is worth investing in if you have a spare £180....

Creative's pride the new Creative Zen

Advantages: Excellent audio, loads of features, price
Disadvantages: A bit sloppy video

...the appearnce with fingerprint impressions. Rating for this section: 8/10. FEATURES: It has got loads of excellent feature, and surprisingly most of them work with very little fuss. Creative Zen is a flash based player and has 2.5? screen boasting of a full size SD card slot. It is available in 4, 8 16 and 32 GB memory option with very little variation in the price tag. It?s eyeing at 5G iPods and has better color support. Infact Creative Zen supports 16.7 million colors althought technically or statistically a mssive achievement but hardly improves the video quality. The FM radio band functions quite well and the voice recoder is a big plus. The creative DJ features is great. Rating for this section 9/10. TECHNICAL FEATURES: *Bluetooth: No *Built-In Microphone: Yes *Built-In Radio: Yes *Digital Audio...

Review of Creative ZEN

Move over Ipod, I heart Zen Mosaic!

Advantages: Original design, brilliant variety of functions, great value for money!
Disadvantages: Not enough to disuade me!

...more hype than it's getting. Even once you've got past its pleasant aesthetics, you'll find it has a brain too. Now, I'm not calling it cheap, but the Mosaic is massive value for money. I bought mine at Argos for around £60; a little black number (chose from black, pink or silver) with an intellectual 8GB memory. I found Argos was the cheapest around and they also offered a discounted Creative USB/mains adapter. Mosaic's built-in battery requires USB connection to charge and involves the use of a computer (cable provided). However, an adapter allows you to plug it directly into the mains. This is a fully functional little MP3 and Creative have really thought of everything to keep you happy. There are even built-in speakers so that you can share your media experience and a nifty little screen for video and picture display (high quality...

Review of Creative Zen Mosaic 8GB

Apple Ipod Touch 8Gb

Advantages: Slim, modern, eye catching, capable. Market leading
Disadvantages: Cost, limited memory for video.

...I have owned this since before Christmas 2008. The packaging was minimal and the design of the Apple Ipod touch 8Gb is breathtaking. Beautiful. The docking is identical to previous generations of Ipod so can be used with any of your previous connectivity and charging docking solutions. The great gui and human interface via the touch screen is innovative and market leading. However, finding your way about and updating via the Apple site takes a few moments to get your head around. Just take your time and enjoy the experience. There are speakers in the case so for occasional use you can listen without earphones. There is a mini jack for connection to systems that do not support the Ipod dock. Aftermarket accessories are available for this like cases and skins. I would recommend this to anyone. With Wi-Fi you can...
