A Bad Experience...

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2006
Review: I've had this MP3 player for nearly a year, and I'm sad to say that I have not been very satisfied.

This is probably the glitchiest MP3 player ever. It has totally crashed on me three times, and deleted my whole library of songs and...

Nice Little Toy

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: Worth the money for my 1st player, and I seem to enjoy Creative products in general
Review: I'd had this player about 2.5 months now, and this is my 1st MP3 player that I've owned. Physical description - very small, think of an oldschool box of wooden matches & it is just a pinch bigger. It easily fits into a shirt pocket, but almost too...

I will not buy Creative products again!

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: Product is decent but not recommended because of disappointing, frustrating customer support and software compatibility issues.
Review: I was very happy with my Zen V Plus, until we got a Vista OS system installed on my PC. Then things went from bad to worse. I bought this MP3 player for audio books that I download from the public library and also to play my favorite music in...

Good MP3 Player to Step Up To

Date of Review:  Aug 16, 2006
Review: I bought this player to replace a player that my kids commandeered. Storage capacity is excellent as I can fit every MP3 that I want to on the device. Sound quality is as good as others that I looked at prior to purchasing this one.

Wonderful New Player

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great little player, easy to use for first time MP3 buyers. Great color and sound, good battery life between charges. Easy menus to learn. Worth the money I spent.
Review: I've had my player for a week now. Not available in Canada so I ordered directly from Creative Labs (USA). I really like the sound. It has very easy to use menus and great color. The menus are a little harder to read if you have photos as wallpaper...

Mixed Reviews

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this player because while it can view photos, its hard to see and its not practical for the 60 dollar price increase.
Review: I've had mine for a few days now. Got it from Staples. It's a great little mp3 player. The OLED screen is fantastic inside or at night in the car but in daylight you really have to find just the right angle to see it properly. The combination of the...

A little iffy

Date of Review:  Jan 19, 2007
The Bottom Line: While the features and sound quality are great, it has been frustrating to download multiple updates to sync the Microphoto with music providers. I can't recommend it.
Review: This player looks trendy and it feels comfortable in my hand. It appears sturdy. Although I've heard complaints about the controls on the Microphoto, I personally like the controls. I had no trouble getting use to them and prefer them over the...

Good but still disappointing

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2007
Review: This is my 1st creative personal audio product and I m utterly disappointed with it. Its also my 1st mp3 player as i had always been using Sony and Panasonic CD players. I bought it because i thought it was better value for money than the more...

A Year and Counting

Date of Review:  Jul 8, 2008
The Bottom Line: Buy it. If you're unsure of what to get, then it's for you.
Review: I've had my Creative Labs Zen V Plus for over a year now. I bought it to replace my iPod, which finally just wore out, the poor thing. I have to admit that so far, I like the Creative Labs Zen V Plus better than the iPod because it has a joystick...

Great Audiobook Player

Date of Review:  Jan 31, 2009
The Bottom Line:

It's hard to beat a handy little player like this at current prices

Review: My local library is now offering audiobook downloads, but IPOD and Zune are out, since they don't currently support DRM (digital rights management). This means buying another player in addition to the two IPODs we already have ! I wanted to listen...
