Digital camera reviews of Creative Zen Stone 1 GB MP3 Player (Black)
Digital camera Review: So far, so good...
Summary: 5 Stars
While I could have opted for a player with a bit more space to take on my workouts/runs (2gb+) or one that includes FM radio or a voice recorder, I purchased the Stone for the basic function of holding a good amount of music (64kbp WMA files means around 500 songs, or 30+ hours of music...which is plenty for a MP3 player smaller than my two thumbs put together). It is small and well-designed, has great sound quality, and is very inexpensive. Since it has the ability to skip through folders, despite its lack of an LCD screen, the ability to shuffle through all music OR listen to an album/playlist at a time is all there. Well worth the money I spent.Digital camera Review: Sounds and performs great, but won't play all the music.
Summary: 3 Stars
I really like the way Zen Stone sounds and how small it is, but for whatever reason it WILL NOT play all the music I sync to it. I've filled its 1GB compacity, and it will only play about 30% of what was put on it. I know because I've taken shuffle off and went through the whole thing. It may be something with just mine, but that's the only issue I have with it.Digital camera Review: Thanks to all who reviewed this! I love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Based on the reviews I read here at Amazon I bought this and could not be happier. I use it when I exercise and hardly notice it is there. DO however purchase/upgrade earphones and buy the arm band. I could not be happier with this. Easy to use, charge, download music. 10/10Digital camera Review: The Way MP3 Player Should be at
Summary: 5 Stars
First off, I am the kind of person who thinks that MP3 player should be small, easy to carry because it doesn't need to become big as CD or Cassette to hold, yet it only need to have memory card to store files as a music format which is called MP3. The small, the better, you know. Therefore, what all MP3 player I have been looking for is required is to play music with low cost and be small. I have been looking at Ipod shuffle and Zen stone, and now I am happy with my decision.
Pros:
1. Small, it's about same size as iPod shuffle. light weight.
2. Nice design
3. Easy interface as well as iPod shuffle. However, it has 1 more interface than iPod shuffle which is able to skip the folder, it's like you can make book mark and you don't have to skip whole lot of tracks to find what you want to listen. Once you get used to this, you will love this interface.
4. Easy to transfer files. You can use Zen stone just like regular flash memory cards, you have no regulation doing this work unlike iPod which have so many regulations that hackers had to crack iTune for freely transfer music files. In Zen stone, you don't have to worry about this issue. It's all your own and you can transfer any type of files to anywhere you want. You don't even need to use a software to transfer. With copy and paste, you can do all you want. However, it would be much easier if you use a software Creative provides on their website. It's easy and has a tool for ripping CD which is my favorite.
Cons:
Only downside is it would be much better if it has a clip just like iPod shuffle. I had to buy an arm-band. Extra cost.
Digital camera Review: The Zen Srone is terrible
Summary: 1 Stars
Not only is the zen stone obsolete and old, it's hard to use and quits for no reason! It has a short battery life and proves unreliable at the best of times. Don't use it at all. Very poor.
