Creative Zen 4 GB ... the Creative ZEN at a glance. Decked out in an all-black suit, the Creative ZEN is smaller than your average credit card and sits snugly right in your palm. With an attractive 11.3mm thickness, this sleek player weighs a mere 65g, allowing you to carry it around easily. And with its patented ZEN user interface, which offers more information to be viewed on the screen, navigating through mass content is simply a breeze.

 ... that I love, and swap music on and off it regularly, and I have to say the Zen is perfect for this. I plug it into my laptop, and can drag and drop music on and off it in seconds. There is no need for 'syncing' it and it's by far the easier to use MP3 player I've had. It's small and light, which is perfect for putting in your pocket when I go out jogging, or popping in your handbag and carrying it around. It's also easy to switch on and off, and browse for music. The buttons aren't too sensitive that you spe...more

The Creative Zen 4GB is my second MP3 player from creative. My original creative MP3 player was the Zen Jukebox and is a complete brick of thing but was, it has to be said a very accomplished player. The Creative Zen 4GB was a present from my girl friend for Christmas and what can i say, a great gift and a very welcome upgrade. The first thing you notice about the creative is its small size, coming in smaller than a credit card and not much over 1cm in thickness. Despite being small it has a great 2.5" screen and well sized buttons which are easy to use. The front casing is a very shiny black plastic which loves finger prints unfortunately much like the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Creaitve Zen : Smaller than a credit card (280 words)

It's pretty small - it's smaller than a credit card. The sound quality is pretty good, it's about the same as my iPod Shuffle but obviously with more settings. The earphones are identical to the old iPod earphones. The User Interface is very good, it is clean and tells you what you need to know. The screen scratches very easily, so I would advise some sort of cover or case for the Zen The battery life goes down very quickly, I am pretty sure that it doesn't last for 25 hours. It charges via USB port but any mini-USB mains charger (which costs less than £5 from Amazon) will charge the Creative Zen perfectly well. The navigation buttons ...  Read the complete review

I have been meaning to review this product for quite a while, although having not been a regular user of Dooyoo for the last couple of months I have not found the time. However now I feel I can give an unbiased review of this product as I have not had any MP3/4 players from Creative or any of the major rival firms like Sony and most notably Apple and their Ipod series. Design: Well this player has been billed as being smaller than a credit card and this is completely true. Placed on top of a credit card it is in fact a tiny bit smaller although of course in terms of thickness it is not possible with the earphone jacks themselves being thicker. It is just ...  Read the complete review

This is a pretty amazing piece of technology for the price. 4mb might not sound very large but this Mp3 player comes with an expansion slot which will take a memory card so you can easily and effectively double the memory capability when you need to. I was a bit scared of MP3 players, I'm not as young as I used to be and it takes me a bit longer to cotton on to new technology than some younger minds. I got this for my husband when I was stuck for what to get him for his birthday. As I'm the computer user i knew it would be up tome to manage it and load stuff on to it. I needn't have worried. This baby is so easy to use even I just ...  Read the complete review
