Zen will creative be creative?

Advantages: High class processing rates
Disadvantages: Navigation and doldrum design again

...CREATIVE ZEN - MX Storage - 8 GB Release date - 05 - 2009 RRP ? 99.99 GBP ? Amazon website via the market-place option Zen will creative be creative? = There are not a lot of life patterns you can be sure of; but when it comes to Creatives new MP3 player launch, the same old design pops its mandatory blue-print into the box of blandness. Yes, I?m talking about the so called new ordinary MX. This years silently released epic from the Creative Lab team. The difference with this model is it?s quirky pointless OCD shift that plays with the navigation direction buttons rather than any major bold steps to bridge the gap with Apple?s flying machine the iPod. Creatives efforts are not with simplify design; but with different processors and technology that they feel capture their loyal client...

Review of Creative ZEN MX

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 V Plus 16GB

Creative zen

Advantages: reasonable price, looks good, dinky, good battery life, good sound quality.
Disadvantages: NONE:)

...i bought this product in may 2008 for about £80 very reasonable for a new 8gb player considering the ipod of that size and generation cost £120-150. I choose it because i had a muvo and loved the quality but out grew it and after battleing with numerous unbranded models i was sick and tired of rubbish. I am a stong hater of popular branded stuff such as the ipod as people i know have had ipods stolen and broken after a year or so (just after the garentee runs out i think) so i didn't look at the ipods and as me and my brother had both had amazing creative mp3 players with no problems (his zen touch has been running for 4 years and still going strong) i decided to look for a new creative player the mozaic in my opinion was the same thing with an ugly casing and the x-fi was a bit expensive so at the size i needed the zen was ideal...

Review of Creative Zen Mosaic 16GB

The Creative Zen is brilliant little device!

Advantages: Small, sleek and lots of features
Disadvantages: Buttons could be a bit tricky at first

...I received this device as a gift. I was a little unsure at first as I had never owned any kind of MP3 before. I was very pleasantly suprised to find it very easy to use and that it has unexpected features such as radio, photo and video. Personally I often use this on the train or the walk to work - the sound and video quality is excellent. I have often watched programs downloaded from BBC i Player and the quality is brilliant. The Zen comes with computer software which is very easy to install. You can also use i-tunes with this product, which is very handy. The only very slight gripe with this product is that I found the buttons a bit confusing at first... although saying that, I didn't read the instructions! This is a great alternative to an i-pod, personally I think it is better - easier to use and with more features....

Review of Creative ZEN

creative zen gives the ipod nano a run for its money

Advantages: large screen, good battery life, very good sound quality
Disadvantages: clicky buttons, can freeze and tricky to reset

...The Creative Zen, in my opinion, is a very good MP3 player which could quite easily give the Ipod nano a run for its money. The sound quality of the Creative Zen, I believe is far superior to that of an Ipod. Although it may not look as impressive, it is a neat looking piece of technology; very sleek and stylish looking. Also, It is neither masculine nor feminine and therefore suits everyone! The Zen also plays videos and again, the quality is good. It has a 2.5 inch screen, larger than the Ipod nano at 2 inches. The software that comes with the Creative Zen is really good, allowing you to put any file onto your Zen as it converts them for you. A massive advantage, in my opinion, is that the Zen comes with a SD card expansion slot so if you only buy the 4GB Zen, you can increase the capacity at a later date, up to 12GB which is better...

Apple iPod Nano 16GB

Advantages: Many New Features
Disadvantages: Can Get Scratched

...Apple iPod Nano 16GB Apple has always been the most well known brand for making brilliant mp3 players. The iPod Nano is just one of them brilliant mp3 players. The iPod Nano has 16GB of memory, which is great if you have lots of songs and videos on your computer. The Apple iPod Nano can hold up to 4,000 songs or 16 hours of video, which is excellent. The iPod Nano can also hold pictures, which can be viewed at any time. Colours - Silver - Purple - Black - Pink - Green - Blue - Red - Yellow - Orange One of my favourite things about the new iPod Nano is the new design. It is curved on both edges and I personally think that it looks really good. The iPod Nano is very durable and can be dropped without it breaking or getting damaged. The iPod does scratch a little bit but if you keep it in a fairly good condition it...

Review of Apple iPod Nano 16 GB 4th Generation

Creative Zen Touch

Advantages: Sound quality, storage capacity, playback mode
Disadvantages: Bulky, Navigation system and pricing

...Design and feel The Creative Zen Touch is quite a big and bulky mp3 player which has a white body cover, the device is smooth to touch and its got a nice sleek design to it. The main feature of the zen touch has is its touch-sensitive Touch Pad, it is easy to use as i have found out as through navigating and scrolling. It also has a lock switch by the side, so buttons aren't accidentally clicked or pressed which is useful for when your on the move because you'll know that even if buttons are pressed it wont affect the zen. Its quite easy to use due to the simple layout of buttons. A USB 2.0 mini socket which connects to the computer can be used to transfer songs. Like the Ipod's the menu shuffle song can play songs which you have in your library. It is also somewhat heavy and bulky and not ideal for carrying around in your pocket...

Review of Creative Zen Touch 20 GB

Zen Creative

Advantages: Sleek appearance. Not an i-pod. Good video capacity. Easy to use.
Disadvantages: No case - screen scratches easily. No function to edit playlists without connection to a computer.

...In my opinion the Zen creative is a great alternative to an i-pod. Personally I would rather not use i-tunes as I find it zaps the processing power of my computer so having an mp3 player that doesn't require the apple software is great. Plus it is more unique than having an i-pod. I think that the sound quality is excellent. Both the computer software and the player menus are really easy to navigate and use. The video quality and screen size on the player itself are impressive considering the small size of the player. Furthermore the player is aesthetically pleasing and the background theme can also be altered so it is possible to personalise the display! I also enjoy the inclusion of an fm-radio function. The only disadvantages to this otherwise distinctive and well-designed player are: 1) you have to be careful not to scratch...
