Customer Reviews

Pretty good stuff
Well leather cases don't have to do much but this does just fine. My x-fi 8gb fits in perfectly and slides in and out when needed to without any faffing around. Al necessary sockets are accessable without removing the player from the case. There is no belt loop and the cover flap closes and is held by mild magnets. There is not a clear plastic sheet covering the screen but the suede finish inside the case should prevent any serious scratches.

Buttons are easy to push while in the case

Not perfect
I can't really say that the case is perfect but does it's job well to a point, but however if you want to change the memory card, you would have to take the ZEN X-Fi out of the case.
Also the ZEN X-Fi when placed in the case doesn't feel as secure as one might think as the X-Fi can easily slide about inside the case from side to side.

Also if you forget that you have the flap open, make sure that your fingers are placed at the opening where you insert the player in to the case, as the player itself can slide out on it's own very easily.

Pro's:
the case itself feels solid and quite tough to take accidental drops and bumps.

Con's:
The player feels slightly too loose when inside the case.
The player can slide out too easily if the flap is open.
No access to card slot when the player is in the case.

Pretty good official Creative Zen X-Fi case
I'd recommend this to anyone with a Zen X-Fi.

It has easy magnetic closure which keeps the cover on and the Zen secure inside. Most of the player is protected, only the speaker, on/off switch and USB/headphone sockets are left exposed.

The cover flap is stiffened for extra protection and can be used to stand the Zen on a surface (see pictures) although it can't easily tilt the Zen to a more convenient viewing angle like some cases.

It is well made and looks durable, more so than some other cases I've seen. All the buttons are accessible while the Zen is in the case but it's not as easy to operate the right hand buttons. All of the screen is visible when in the case.

For extra safety I also carry my X-Fi and case in a bag which came with my Zen Micro, so that's still useful for something. So you might wish to consider something like this to keep the case in good condition.

The only annoying aspect is that removing the Zen from the case completely while listening requires unplugging the headphones momentarily as they are passed through an opening in the side. This is true for a lot of players and cases though.

All in all good value for money.
