Advantages: Sound quality, reliability
Disadvantages: Size, fiddly controls
I've had mine a few years now without any major problems and its still going strong so top marks for reliability. The following are the strengths and weaknesses of this player:
Good
1. Massive memory - should be more than enough to hold your music collection.
2. Competitive price - it has all the features you'd expect from a quality mp3 player and great value compared to similar units.
3. Sound quality is second to none, i have owned several players and this rates amongst the best.
4. If you use the Zen Touch Explorer software(available to download from their website) transferring files is easy and very fast.
5. Good build quality - I've dropped mine a few times with no significant damage to the outer case.
Bad
1. Navigating songs using the touch pad can be a little frustrating. Although a clever idea it can be a bit over sensitive and takes some time to get used to.
2. Size- it's a bit big compared to similar players.
In conclusion I would recommend this player, certainly worth picking up on ebay if you can get a good price.
Summary: Highly recommended, although a bit dated

- 16/01/08 This review could do with a lot more info, especially actually using the controls, build quality, LCD screen - is it light enough or too dark? What about the price? |
