Digital camera reviews of Creative Zen Stone 1 GB MP3 Player (Pink)
Digital camera Review: poor quality mp3 player :-(
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this pink zenstone from Target for a very good price, and was ecstatic about the simplicity of the design...and the small size.Until I took it home, charged it on my computer (which took almost 3 hours). The songs downloaded with ease, and needed no software (which was a great bonus), but when I played it, the battery died after 5 minutes! :-( I took it back to Target,got store credit and paid alot more for a Sony mp3 walkman, which was well worth the extra money!This zenstone is a great concept, but the quality needs to be greatly improved.Digital camera Review: works great for me!

I don't really consider myself to be in the iPod generation but I really love this little player. I got a free MP3 player (generic) which ended up breaking so I went looking for a replacement. I especially like the Zen Stone for its speaker so that I don't have to use the earbuds. I use it while gardening to just clip on the inside of my shirt or to set out while I do exercise. I use it while playing guitar to be able to have the song I am working on right in front of me to listen to different parts of it.
The only thing I have had an issue with is the same as some people have mentioned before which is the charging. To me it holds the battery life fine but I have not used others to compare. The issue I have had is my computer not recognizing the player when I hook it up on USB to charge and I did the same thing as was mentioned, I plugged it in overnight to charge and went to bed without realizing that it hadn't actually connected. You sometimes have to really make sure that it is connected or change USB cables, or it might be that I am still on Win2000pro? Either way I always make sure that it is connected when I charge and then it works great for me!
Digital camera Review: works great!

Got this for my daughter. Easy to load songs onto. Charges with usb, so no need to buy tons of batteries. Decent headphones. Worth the money! Cute pink color.
