Strengths: cute, smart, quality, easy to set up, easy to use
Weaknesses: the color I ordered (green) doesn't look like the green pictured on the website
Summary: As someone who considers themselves to be highly UN-computer or tech savvy, I am happy to say it the Zen Micro MP3 player is easy to set up and play. I was worried there would be too many functions and I would feel like I wasn't utilizing every aspect of it, but it turns out there's not too many, or atleast they organize it well enough so it's not overwhelming. The touchpad screen really is easy to use, and you can even set it to the level of sensitivity you want. The earphones that are included sound AMAZING, it's too bad I can't use this MP3 player to run with though. I was a little surprised at the color in person, the green is actually very neon, and not the avacado-like color it appears to be on the creative.com website. Overall, I am very happy with it and will be taking it on a long road trip.

Strengths: after firmware upgrade battery life was amazing, the style of the player and how it felt more natural in your hands then other players.
Weaknesses: slow in loading the playlists.
Summary: It's good that there are different colors to choose from because you want the most unique you can get, not just black, silver and white. The sound quality is amazing and it's even pretty good with travel speakers. At first I was wondering why the battery level just kept going lower, but after a quick upload to the newest firmware I realized that there is a least double improvement in the battery life and no more battery drainage. All in all this player is so phenomenal with the 5 GB and the radio, microphone, organizer and special area the store your files exclusively.

Strengths: This is a great product--it is so small, intuitive, & convenient. You can listen to music or the radio, record anything that needs recording (voices, data, etc.), or organize stuff with the calendar.
Weaknesses: None.
Summary: I think it is important to choose a color that you really like, since this is an accessory as much as an MP3 player. The great thing about this player is the choice of color, yet the functionality is also outstanding. I really love all the features & think they are so easy to use--you almost don't need the manual. It's really great that you can also use the player to transfer data even without the software, which definitely comes in handy if you are trying to get your friend's music collection & naturally do not have the software installation CD with you. Finally, I think getting the remote is a must (even though it's still only sold by Creative itself & costs about $ 30 with the shipping & all), since it really allows you to select songs, modes of playing them & adjust the volume without having to take the player out every time. A great product--highly recommended!

Strengths: light, small, cute, sylish case, ac charger included, easy to use, intuitive controls.
Weaknesses: none
Summary: would highly recommend this product from Creative. If you want to go for something which is light, stylish, and still stay within your budget, compared to iPod (4gb). You can transfer music from your own collection, in mp3/wma format, without having to buy from iTunes. Storing data in this is no hassle . ac adaptor is included. The case looks stylish, at the same time protects the player very well. Software is great, like the media explorer. earphones are great too. touchpad,& other controls r very easy to use, intuitive, just play around with it for a little bit.
