Digital camera reviews of Creative Zen Stone 1 GB MP3 Player (Black)
Digital camera Review: Great low-end light-weight product
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very happy with this product. I saw some of the poor reviews complained about the controls not offering enough flexibility, or the poor earphones. These are true, but what do you want for $40? Some complained about battery life, and I have had NO problem with the batteries. I get at least 8-10 hours out of each charge.
The controls ARE a bit simiplistic, but I use this for listening to tunes while working out, and do not require a lot of control. If I wanted more control (which comes with more weight and size), I would've bought a fancier unit!
This is a great little unit. It weighs almost nothing, sounds good, and plays files in order with little difficulty. If you need more than that, look at the Zen Stone Plus, perhaps.
Would be nice if they had a belt-clip accessory for it though....
Digital camera Review: Great mini-player
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had my stone for over a month and I find that it is a great device to have around. The software is free to download, but you can even use Windows Explorer to load the files - clean simple design and it takes a standard USB 2.0 plug, same as my digital camera - so it is easy to find a cable when I need one. Battery life seems good too.
The only thing that would be a nice addition would be a small clip on it so that I could clip it to my shirt.
Digital camera Review: Great quality sound and a fantastic price.
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this product through the Pepsi promotion and I am overwhelmed with its high quality sound. Several of my friends are wanting me to get them one after they saw it. I had a minor problem setting this item up. However, I sent an email to the manufacturer and they responded by the next morning with simple instructions which let me figure out what I was doing wrong. It has been working wonderful since then. The sound quality is very good with the included headphones. I had bought some aftermarket isolation headphones anyway to make the bass stand out even more.
I don't think you can go wrong at this price for a unit that holds 1GB of music. I have 74 songs on mine and some are over 8 minutes each.
Digital camera Review: Half the price/More than twice the value
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 2 of these for gifts to my extended families overseas. Created a MP3 files playlist and sync-ed it to the Zen using Windows Media Player 11 in lest than 5 minutes (not counting the actual transfer time. Did not require any instructions.
I personally own an iPod shuffle (given to me as a gift) and I love it. But this is half the price and equally good. If you want to save some money and are in the Windows world I would HIGHLY recommend this player.
Digital camera Review: I love this mp3 player!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great player for someone like me who never thought they would break down and buy an mp3 player. I'm not "into" all the latest technology, but I was getting tired of getting off the treadmill to change cd's constantly! This little thing is soooo easy to figure out. I taught myself how to operate it and how to download songs in no time. It may be a cheaper player, but the sound is awesome. I've had mine for probably 4-6 months now, with no problems. I recommend this for beginners or anyone who just needs a basic, easy to use mp3 player.
