Creative Zen Micro 6 GB

Advantages Hold alot of songs, long battery life
Disadvantages Not photo, not colour, not as many features as some

...to plug the player in to your computer using the USB cable supplied and your ready to go! I have only ever used this player with Windows Media player and Napster, and adding music couldnt be simpler. With Napster, drag and drop tracks, with windows media, simply go to sync and make a playlist to add. But back to the player! Music transfer is relativly quick, the USB is 2.0 (not sure what that means to be honest!) and transferring an album takes about 3 minutes on my computer depending on how slow everything else is feeling! Once added, music is sorted in to artists, albums, genre and tracks. You can also create playlists. LISTENING TO YOUR MUSIC First, turn on the player. There is an on off switch at the top which you need to pull towards on and hold for a few seconds. The backlight will come on and it will say Creative Labs and do its... Read review

Advantages great sound-great size and style
Disadvantages vetical touch pad can be quite annoying with big fingers!

...Firstly, this is a great mp3 player madde by one of the best in the business with a great look, outstanding sound quailty and a huge amount of space in such a small electronic. Look and size: Its great! small-but not to small. The balck coulour is outstanding and is very stylish. The screen, fairly big for the size of the whole thing and a backlight LCD for alumininating teh screen. Unfortunately not a colour screen but the other aspects of it make up for this.

Advantages Easy to use, compact, cool colours, fm radio
Disadvantages Quite sensitive controls

...I took a look at a lot of reviews when considering which mp3 player to buy, and from all the reviews, this came out the best. Since having gotten my own, I can see why, its so easy to use, and all my music fits on there happily. The controls are easy to use, although it can be very sensitive so takes a few days to get used to it (you can, however, change the sensitivity). They come in soo many different colours, mine is dark blue, its snazzy and I love it. Theres also the radio feature which is great, and you can even record from the radio. Theres also a handy little recorder, so if you're a student you can take it along to lectures instead of a dictaphone. I'd say its one of my best buys, and makes my train journeys a lot easier!!...
