16GB Creative Technology Zen

Pros: Compact, universally connects to any computer, video and audio playback, and SD expansion slot.

Cons: Could playback more audio types like FLAC and OGG.

The Bottom Line: A great audio player for anyone thinking of purchasing an iPod.

Review: I purchased this item to replace a Creative Zen V because I was looking for something capable of also playing back video. The Zen is amazing. Watching a movie or video on a 2.5" screen isn't the greatest but it's a good way to pass the time if you're ...

Pros: SDHC.
Battery Life.
FM.
Voice Recording.
Video.
Flash Memory.

Simple Software.

Cons: Two-Handed Use.

The Bottom Line: The glitches hold this player back. But if you need an inexpensive flash player with unlimited storage, this is the way to go.

Review: I thoroughly researched MP3 players for a month. My options narrowed down to 3 players:</p> The Ipod Touch 32GB, the Sansa View 16GB, and the Creative Zen 16GB.</p> The Sansa View had all of the features I wanted, from ...

Pros: Chock Fulla features SD Card support

Cons: Crippled SD Card Support No Bluetooth Easily scratched Screen

The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend this player to anyone who wished for a high capacity flash player with more features than iPod.

Review: I bought two of these (one 8gb for my sister and one 16gb for myself...I was being greedy at the time...and NOW I want the 32gb). The player works well, is easy to use and has a host of features that should be standard on all player including: FM ...

Pros: Great user interface, beautiful color screen, works with Yahoo Unlimited and Amazon Unbox

Cons: Poor random play, battery life is less than promised

The Bottom Line: You generally can't go wrong with a Creative Player. I'd consider the Zune as well and of course an Ipod but I'm very happy with the Zen.

Review: The Creative Zen 16GB is definitely a player that should be high on your list if you considering an MP3 player purchase. Creative is a very well respected name in the world of MP3 players, and the Zen will not change that reputation at all. The Zen comes ...

Pros: Size, ease of use and ability to use SD cards.

Cons: Low volume, small screen.

The Bottom Line: If you are looking for portability and primarily an MP3 player this is one to look at.

Review: I bought this product when it first came out, after my Creative Zen W (30G) went "kaput" and I needed something fast for a long road trip I was going on. As an MP3 player, it is very nice if you have a decent set of sound canceling headphones when on ...
