Digital camera reviews of Creative Zen Stone 1 GB MP3 Player (Black)
Digital camera Review: It is what it is
Summary: 4 Stars
Pros:
1. Small
2. Rechargeable through USB (no AA battery like MuVo)
3. Easy to use
4. Blinking LED lets you know status of charging and whether or not it's playing.
Cons:
1. It takes about 20 seconds between the time you hit Play and the music actually starts.
2. The headphones that came with it were crappy. Would rather not get headphones at all then pay for crappy ones.
3. IT HAS NO CLIP FOR RUNNING. It comes with no clip to add on like the Muvo did, you have to buy an armband separately. I used to have an iPod shuffle, which had its own clip already built onto it, which was nice.
4. The iPod shuffle had a nice feature where if you hit the play button three times quickly it would jump immediately to the first song on the list. This one doesn't do that.
Digital camera Review: It suits my purpose
Summary: 4 Stars
I wanted a music player that was inexpensive and that I could wear while exercising (gym, running, spinning)or working in the yard. This little guy holds about 10 hrs of music (so far I have about 6 hrs of my stuff on it). The software is very easy to use. It's easy to add, delete or make changes. You have to use your computer to charge it but that is no big deal for me. The earbuds that come with it are useless. I knew that from reading reviews so I bought Philips SHE2650/37 earbuds for about 8 bucks and they work very well. Also, the battery discharges more rapidly than advertised, at least that is my experience. So that and the earbuds are the reasons I only gave 4 stars. I also bought the arm band which is very good but at $15 almost half the price of the player. You need to decide if it is worth it to you. Overall it is great for the purpose I described.Digital camera Review: Just what I needed...
Summary: 5 Stars
This little guy is JUST what I needed. It does NOT have all of the bells, whistles and whatevers that most people want. I wanted a simple player with a speaker for when I am out in the garden or with my kids playing in the park/backyard. I didn't need something that holds a bazillion songs (obviously means a pricier unit the higher the storage). I don't need a screen to search through said bazillion songs. Mr. Stone is just what I wanted. Perfect!
I do think I will buy the keychain holder since this fella' is TINY. I'm afraid that I might knock off the skin clip that comes with it.
Digital camera Review: Love it, small & sleek
Summary: 4 Stars
It feels great in your hand and it's small. It feels smooth without any protection, but after applying the silicone case, it still feels good since it's so cute ^^ and small of course.
Wish I had waited for the PLUS one to come out, but I'm fine with the 1GB. I'll just be changing the songs a lot whenever my taste changes. The screen that comes with PLUS is useful, but I'm still glad I have the 1 GB one. It's better than not having one.
Great small player, but lacking assess. So far only some sport band, clip, and silicone skin.
Digital camera Review: Made cheap
Summary: 2 Stars
Came with ear buds that one wire to one was way longer than the other, luckily I had other sets. It has flaws in the music that is loaded into it, even though I know the songs are flawless on the PC. I do not recommend buying this product and am most likely going to return it.
