Creative Zen Vision:M (30GB) review

Though it's not as small as the new iPod, and its interface doesn't trump the Clickwheel, the 30GB Zen Vision:M is a real video player -- while on the iPod, video remains a novelty. It's slightly more expensive than Apple's world-conqueror, but the improved screen and number of video formats available more than make up for it Read more

Creative Zen Sleek review

Unlike many MP3 players trying to steal some reflected glory from the iPod, the Zen Sleek syncs easily with PCs and looks lovely. An overly complicated navigation system, which occasionally produces annoying pop-up menus, marrs the overall effect Read more

Creative Zen Nano Plus (1GB) review

Given the recent launch of Apple's iPod nano, the Creative Zen Nano -- which came out first -- is very unfortunately named. This is unfair, as they're aimed at different markets -- the Zen Nano is half the price, has only 1GB of memory and a small black-and-white screen. It offers decent sound and it's perfectly usable, but the build quality's not all it could be Read more

Microdrive MP3 players: cute but capacious

If you like to carry around a small library of music, then a flash-based MP3 player just isn't going to do it for you. You're going to need something with significantly more storage capacity. Read more

Hard-drive based MP3 players

So, you're in the market for a hard-drive MP3 player? Well, they might claim to be hard drives, but you're unlikely to catch any of them tearing themselves out of their Dixons packaging and rampaging about, smashing and terrifying the toasters in aisle three. There's a good reason for this: hard drives are actually mechanical devices that store your music on platters that spin at high speed -- like a really, really clever record player... Read more
