CNET Editors' review - Creative Zen (16GB)
 Hide
CNET Editor's rating: 8.3 out of 10
Reviewed by Jasmine France Review date: 9/14/07 The good: The Creative Zen sounds fantastic and features a brilliant color screen capable of displaying photos and video. The player offers a smorgasbord of desirable extras such as an SD card expansion slot, an FM radio, a voice recorder, and a user-definable EQ. It has a slim, pocket-friendly design; is very user-friendly; supports subscription music; and sports a reasonable price tag. The bad: The Creative Zen only comes in black, the control pad feels cheap, and it doesn't come close to matching the max 60GB offered by the player it's replacing. The bottom line: We're hard-pressed to find anything not to like about the Creative Zen. It's a great option for anyone looking for a great-sounding, pocketable MP3 player with an excellent, video-capable screen and plenty of extra features. Product brief - Creative Zen (16GB)

Description: The Creative Zen is a 16 GB, large capacity player. Compared to other large capacity MP3 players on the market, it is midpriced at around $170. Pros: Has a 97 dB signal-to-noise ratio, which is somewhat more favorable than some similarly priced MP3 players. (Signal-to-noise ratio is a measure of the strength of the audio signal in comparison to that of the background noise. A lower signal-to-noise ratio means that the device produces more hiss and static, while a higher number (closer to 100) means clear-sounding audio.) This unit comes with a radio tuner. Cons: None noted, given available product data. Suitability: A large capacity MP3 player, suited for bringing an entire music library with you. Listen to your favorite local stations on this radio equipped player. Comes with equalizer presets to easily tailor your listening experience. Comes with a 1 year warranty, which is standard in the industry. Value: Overall, this MP3 player's features are as expected for this price. Suggestions: Audiophiles may wish to buy aftermarket headphones for better sound reproduction. User opinions - Creative Zen (16GB)
