Creative Zen Stone user reviews (1GB, red)

4.5 stars

"amazing player at a unbelievable price 9.5/10" on May 12, 2007 by demon-strative

Pros: very small, light. comfortable. stylish. great sound quality. cheap.

Cons: unimpressive ear piece. no screen, no recording and radio

Summary: it is so light when i first held it up, i even wondered that is it because i havent inserted the battery pack. the shine from polish surface gives it an extraordinary look. the range of colours offered are excellent. first impression of player 10/10
while charging the player through a usb port, transfering of songs is relatively simple, just drag and drop. the 1 gb of memory was then took up by my 200 songs. though 1 gb might be rather small, but i personally feel 200 songs is more than enough. 9/10
plugged in the included earpiece, music wasnt as excellent. i then used my soundproof earpiece, great sound quality from tiny player. included earpiece 4/10. player's sound quality 8/10
i then fell asleep while listening to music. when i woke up, 8-9 hours has passed, the player is still running.
in addition, the protruding play/pause button makes easy for control in the dark. 9/10.
overall, i feel its an excellent player for such a stunning price. buying 2 zen stone is equivilant to 1 shuffle who has similar function. the fact that it doesnt have a screen doesnt seem to be affecting me the slightest bit. 9.5/10
