Customer Reviews

Creative Couldn't Care Less
Beware of Creative customer care.

I recently contacted them with a problem with my MP3 player.

Basically, although it worked fine and was fully loaded with my whole music and video collection, I couldn't add any further content to it.

Customer care took me through a diagnostic process which ended with a instructions to completely reformat the machine, stripping it of its operating system.

I e-mailed them to say I was nervous of doing this, but they insisted it was necessary and that if it didn't work I'd be invited to send the unit in for repair or replacement.

When I took the fateful step and lost everything they informed me that I was out of warranty and they wanted £60 to repair it (even though they had known my purchase date and had a copy of my Amazon receipt from the beginning).

As this unit can now be bought for about this amount I had no option but to bin it.

Result, no player, 4500 tracks and dozens of films lost forever.

If they had told me the cost of repair before pushing me to reformat I could have made and informed decision.

Do not trust their advice, in fact if I were you I'd buy elsewhere!

what's the problem?
I've seen a number of complaints about this but I don't see the problem here. I've been using this for about four months now and I have no complaints.
The wire management system is simple, intuitive and has saved me many frustrating minutes of disentangling headphone wires.
The lack of plastic in the screen hole actually makes it easier to take the skin on and off, which is also a bonus.
If you want to protect the screen there are plenty of better options than an integrated plastic sheet, such as the plastic films also available on this site (and also highly recommended). They cut down less of the illumination than an integrated piece of plastic would and are less liable to tear, especially when taking the skin on and off.
If there is any potential flaw with it, it's that it make the player quite a bit more bulky, but overall I find that a minor consideration given the benefits.

zen skin
If your like me, who dosen't care about the wire management and wants a cheap skin to keep the scratches away from your shiny, new zen then this is what you want.

Because it is rubber, it stops it sliding easily on smooth surfaces too. SD slot, usb and headphone sockets are all accessible with it on- thats a good thing. All the buttons are covered up but can still be used easily. Stops finger marks also. It does get dirty quickly but no hassle really.

Yes it dosen't have a screen protector, but I thought that is obvious as it is a 'skin' and if you want to protect the screen, go down your local market and get a screen protector for about £1, which you cut to size. Best of both worlds then!
