Newest Review: ... not great, but I've got another set anyway which I use with it. It is a bit cheap of Creative not providing a case for it as ... more

 ... the screen must be prone to scratching, but I picked up a leather one for a few pence on ebay next day (something like £2.99 including postage from Hong Kong !). So I'm all kitted out and ready for action. Listening on the bus to work or on a plane is good. I'm getting up to around 24hrs battery life if I lock the screen when playing. If you dont lock the screen its a lot less. Anyway, its enough to do a flight to Australia on one charge. The radio has an autoscan and picks up FM stations, this can be a bit hit...more

Premium Review A great little 16Gb mp3 player with video and an FM radio (780 words)

After many years of service from a previous Creative Zen Touch 20GB which was (is) still going strong, I decided to get something I could watch video on too. My selection criteria were 1. small, 2. support last.fm scrobbling (yes, I'm addicted to it), 3. support BBC iPlayer downloads, 4. a radio and 5. good battery life (use it on planes a lot). The Creative Zen 16Gb was about £80 and streets ahead of the competition on paper so I opted for it. I sort of debated the Zen X-fi version with wi-fi but decided this is for use while I'm on the move so I dont need wi-fi. 16Gb is more than enough for me - I'm only carrying the tunes I want, I've got a 500Gb disk at ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Creative Zen 16 GB: Good, but only for small usage. (170 words)

When I first received this mp3, it was as a gift. I was over the moon! So much memory, and it worked really well, so it seemed at first. I was wrong. My Creative Zen had to be restarted many times at first, and I even had to delete the whole library and start again. Also, the battery life is something to be considered when buying this product. You will find that even after charging it for what seems like forever, the life of the mp3 will go and will go very quickly! If you are only to use this mp3 player for a few hours, or just a day and can charge after 6 hours of use (or just don't change the songs), then you'll be fine. Aside from this the outer case is very durable ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Is it really that creative to customers? (797 words)

As being a fan of the Apple Ipod Classics for many years, I thought it would be a good time for me to take an interest in finding an Mp3 player that could hold enough music but be small enough to fit in my pocket. The size of this device is a huge positive for me as its small enough to fit nicely in your pocket while it doesn't get in the way when walking, the way the developers made the Mp3 player as a small as a common credit card sends fans of small music players into ecstasy. ((Appearance)) As the appearance goes its a nice simple look but in my opinion after buying this device, you have to look at the "Creative Zen X-FI 16gb" with it's ...  Read the complete review

By definition Creative are one of the best innovaters of sound products on the market today. I've never yet gone wrong with a creative product and once again i'm not disappointed, just purring over another yet another high quality product that does exactly what it says on the tin! I've owned an ipod, and lesser branded mp3 players over the past few years, but for me this beats them all hands down.... Firstly its small, compact and extremley lightweight... For a moment when your sat on train listening to one of your many music created playlists, you can even forget that, you've even got the device sat in your coat jacket pocket.... As soon ...  Read the complete review
