5 out of 5 stars Awesome player   September 7, 2008
Music Lover (Ormond Beach, FL)
I moved up from a Zen Vision to this X-FI model. I have to say I'm very impressed with this player. Transferring files were much faster than with the Zen vision. This is definitely an IPod killer - no comparison. The screen is amazingly clear and the colors are very accurate. I've got large thumbs and did not find the buttons to be small as others say they have. Response was much faster than I've seen on other players. The X-FI really restores the sound. The cymbals and the bass return in this player. 32gbs of storage and a 2.5 inch screen in a credit card size is as good as it gets. I would highly recommend this player to anybody.


4 out of 5 stars Great player if it would work   September 3, 2008
Diana Morgan (Pacifica, CA USA)
This is such a great improvement over that old large Zen player with speaker! Mostly because it is a nice compact size. And its features seemed to be very user friendly, especially the ability to sync straight from Media Player. Only thing, as has happened to me and my family with about 1/2 of Creative Zen products we buy, it isn't working properly. This one has to be returned for warranteed repair because the screen light went out about one week after purchase.


3 out of 5 stars Torn   August 31, 2008
Benjamin Britton (Colorado, USA)
Well, this is a semi-solid Creative product. It size is a nice change, very nice video quality and superior sound quality. As said before, the x-fi technology is kinda a gimick... the basic sound improvement comes from the sethoscope-like headphones that seal out alot of background noise, and do provide higher highs, and amazingly lower lows. I"m thinking its more the headphones that the technology.

The software isnt that bad... anyone with mediocre computer experience should be able to do well with it.

The player itself is teh problem... it seems cheaply built. While the light plastic used contributes to the light weight, it just seems cheaply made. The silver paint on the back of the unit is easily scratched off. For nearly $300, I'd expect a more durable player.

So, for now, I would suggest buying the new X-fi earphones... but maybe reconsider on the player ;)



3 out of 5 stars Not Too Bad but there is a shortcut on repair   August 30, 2008
Paultaro (Indiana)
I bought the player a little over a month ago. Even though I had returned the Creative Zen M: 30 because of hard disk failure. Bought it through overstock.com my first mistake. Overstock has basically no electrical knowledge. Ok had the player loved the new 32 gigs filled it up. I had no problem with the programming.
Then it crashed. It didnt even say harddisk error woke up one morning and it was on the ground my cat must have knocked it off my computer tower and turned it on. Blank screen that turned green. Amazon has no electrical help either and creative website is a joke. While checking out the zen jukebox reviews stumbled onto pricegrabber.com and it showed some reviews about restarting and holding down the play button and smacking it on your right hand. Guess what it brought me back to the restart screen. After my second attempt of this it cleaned the disk and rebooted the music.
This should come on the box. Overwise you will be tempted to return it or send it to one of those websites that promise to fix it and then want an arm and a leg then a tooth and a nail.
Would I buy another creative zen? Yeah honestly I love the ease of the software if you have Rhapsody or another download program it is so easy to maintain.
Just be wary of the fixing. Now I will just keep an eye on it. And if you can buy the extended warranty on all Creative Zen products. Especially the higher gig and pricepointed ones.
