Creative Technology ZEN V Plus (4 GB) MP3 Player

Pros: Great sound quality, bright, colourful display, removable battery, rich in additional features and settings.

Cons: Battery life not the best around, bundled headphones could be better.

The Bottom Line: This player definitely seats itself apart from the crowd! For an adequate price, you get great sound, style, a large number of functions and extra features. A player to behold!

Review: When my 128 Acer flash stick just proved to be too small to accommodate enough music for sustained listening, I have been on the lookout for a new mp3 player for quite some time now. However, I definitely wanted to avoid the iPod hype and get something a ...

Pros: Small, Capacity, Recording, Aesthetics

Cons: Small buttons

The Bottom Line: Worth the money for my 1st player, and I seem to enjoy Creative products in general

Review: I'd had this player about 2.5 months now, and this is my 1st MP3 player that I've owned. Physical description - very small, think of an oldschool box of wooden matches & it is just a pinch bigger. It easily fits into a shirt pocket, but almost too small ...

Pros: No overdrying of clothes, gentle on clothes, stackable

Cons: TIME - you have to give yourself 1.5 hours/load (true for all ventless dryers)

The Bottom Line: If you need to buy a ventless dryer, this one is superb!!!

Review: We bought this dryer to go with our Axxis washer and love it. We needed a ventless dryer to go in a closet - we actually had no choice about vent/ventless so knew there were going to be some compromises. This really is a great machine once you get ...

Pros: great size, multi media sources

Cons: charges on the computer, not a wall plug

The Bottom Line: love this thing! I use it every day

Review: I received this for a birthday gift about a year ago. This is by far the best little this I received. Not only is a it an MP3 player, but it stores pictures in separated files, videos can be formatted to fit on the drive, you can sync it to your ...

Pros: Easy to read and adjust $ priced well for the large drive space.

Cons: Must use USB to charge, I'd prefer AC Charger

The Bottom Line: I'd highly recommend this player, it's been very easy to use and the bookmark and fast forward and reverse are totally necessary for audio books.

Review: Big bang for the $$, I listen to Overdrive audio books on my Zen that I download from my local library, it allows you to bookmark your place and easily get back to where you were. The control pad is large enough and backlit making it easy to do ...

Pros: bookmarking feature, PC software interface, capacity, durability

Cons: Occasionally jams, but reset feature rebuilds the library. Directory management awkward.

The Bottom Line: Must Have! Excellent value, features, compatible with "wma" format, rugged, great battery life.

Review: The Zen V Plus MP3 player has plenty of room for all the music and audio books you could want to carry with you. It is compatible with Audible and many audio library book files such as Net Library and Media Over Drive. The bookmarking feature (there are ...

Pros: Lots of Features, Removable Battery, Standards Compliant, Easy to manage

Cons: Internal interoperability (can't view photos while listening to music).

The Bottom Line: Packed with features and plenty of space. Sins are forgivable. This is a great player.

Review: The Zen Microphoto is the first in a long line of mp3 players that I've owned that I have actually enjoyed having as a consumer electronics techie. Instead of the obvious box-cover specs, I base my decisions on some of the more technical nuances: The ...

Pros: Great color and sound. Easy to use menus. Tough outter shell and good battery life.

Cons: No dedicated volume control, keypad a bit sensitive, earbuds feel a bit big.

The Bottom Line: Great little player, easy to use for first time MP3 buyers. Great color and sound, good battery life between charges. Easy menus to learn. Worth the money I spent.

Review: I've had my player for a week now. Not available in Canada so I ordered directly from Creative Labs (USA). I really like the sound. It has very easy to use menus and great color. The menus are a little harder to read if you have photos as wallpaper ...

Pros: Beautiful Display, excellent sound quality, cool controls, generous storage capacity.

Cons: Touch controls can be hard to get the hang of at first.

The Bottom Line: If you want to stand out from the crowd, and still have a great MP3 player, check this product out!

Review: If you are like me, you don't always want to fit in with the crowd. I have always wanted to have the things that stood out among what everyone else had. I used these instincts even when I started shopping for a MP3 player. I have nothing against iPod ...

Pros: It's attractive, small, lightweight, easy to use, lots of space.

Cons: Hard to read screen in the sun.

Review: I had a horrible ordeal when I bought the Siren 4gb player, so I returned it and exchanged it for this Creative Zen V Plus player, and it was the best thing I ever did. It's just as good, if not better, than an Ipod. The controls, and everything, are so ...
