Microsoft's First Foray into the World of Competition

Pros Screen, controls, wireless connection
Cons Price
Recommended it? Yes

A few years back Microsoft tried its hand in the portable music player market. Much like many of their other products, it was supposed to have a lot of different features but none of them really worked that well. This was in stark contrast to Apple who chose to make their devices more simply, but... Read full review »

The Zune Doesn't Make Me Swoon.

22 Helpfuls 23 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Good MP3 player.  I love the Zune service
Cons Terrible customer service. It's not the most durable MP3 player.
Recommended it? No

If anyone is qualified to talk about the Microsoft Zune, it is me. Not because I'm some audiophile. Not because I know all the technical aspects of it. Simply because I've had to endure hours and hours of time on the phone with people who know twenty words in the English dictionary, to try to fix... Read full review »

Pros Big shiny screen...FM radio...extreme capacity
Cons Well...we'll get to it in the review
Recommended it? Yes

Got this today at my local CC. My very first thoughts upon opening - nice, neat, tidy packaging, but not too many extras. The one thing that really irked me is the lack of an AC adapter - it only comes with the USB data/power cable. An extra $19.95 for the blasted thing - can you say margin,... Read full review »

Zune Player Gets No Respect

bymanroot Feb 17, 2008
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros Sound Quality, Ease of Navigation, Biggest Screen on a PMP
Cons Lack of accessories at brick and mortar stores
Recommended it? Yes

All of my music is ripped to the .wma format so an iPod wouldn't work for me. Being a self professed music nut, I find the .wma file format sounds better than .mp3 files at comparable bit rates. The .wma format seems to hold the bottom end better, and so I ripped all 5 gazillion of my CD's to my... Read full review »

Pros Big screen, slim/sleek, easy menus, cheap, sturdy, sound, wifi-sharing
Cons Software, proprietary, lack of simple features, video support
Recommended it? No

When my Creative Zen Vision M died, I wanted something to improve upon what I used to have. After searching around, the Zune caught my eye. It was a great looking player, it's thin, and cheap for how much space it has. So I managed to get one delivered to my door. First impressions were very good,... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I have been an avid iPod user since nearly day one of their existence and up until recently though they would all ways be number 1. But after receiving my ZUNE 80 for Xmas I have to say I am far more than impressed. The thing is nearly perfect. All the glitches that came with iPods are gone,... Read full review »

Pros Design, feel, screen size, wireless function, simplicity, online and physical marriage
Cons Wireless limitations, content organization controls within the device
Recommended it? Yes

I can't help but be inclined to review the Microsoft Zune with a semi-nostalgic and appreciative recollection of the possibilities of moving media in the past, and an idea of what constitutes the ideal end state for a digital media device in the future. Having owned a number of portable audio and... Read full review »

Pros Price, Screen size, built in radio, and sound quality.
Cons Outside casing, screen dirties easily.
Recommended it? Yes

So you need something to get you through boring bus rides, and long waits at the doctor's office. Well this is it. Microsoft has done something right...again! (Xbox).

The Zune is easy to operate, using a familiar touch pad similar to the older generation iPods. And the sound quality is great... Read full review »
