Creative Zen

The Creative Zen is a sleek portable MP3 player that can play videos, audios, and unprotected music files. It's an update to the Zen Vision except that the Creative Zen doesn't have the big capacity of the previous Vision. It only comes in 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB capacity.

SPECIFICATIONS:

The Creative Zen is a flash based player with a 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB capacity and a SD card expansion slot. It also has a FM radio player, 2.5 inch screen, built in voice recorder, weighs around 2.3 oz and capable of handling AAC, MP3, WAV, WMA, ADPCM, and Audible file formats.

ADVANTAGES:

Compared with the new generation of iPod mini, the Creative Zen has a larger screen, about 2.5 inch which makes watching videos a lot better compared with smaller screens. The screen is capable of outputting 16.7 million colors and though not as rich in color as the iPod mini's screen, it is capable of delivering good quality videos. The Creative Zen has a slim card design and it actually reminds me of the back of a digital camera. What is great about the Creative Zen is that although its capacity has been greatly reduced from the previous Zen Vision, it is a flash based player which means you can add as much memory as you like and transfer it from one flash player to another. Sound quality on the Creative Zen is great in whatever genre of music
