Indulge in rich audio where you can hear your music in crystal clear clarity. Take in guitar strumming, crisp cymbal clashes and deep pounding bass as detail lost during file compression are now beautifully restored. The built-in X-Fi technology intelligently moves a conventional left/right earphone stereo source away from your ears, virtually expanding it for an audio experience with a breathtakingly realistic depth of field. You'll feel as if you were listening to your music from a pair of high end speakers. Less

Cons SD Integration.<br> Non-replaceable battery
Recommended it? Yes

I've had good experiences so far with Creative products and the Zen X-Fi did not disappoint.

Creative in recent times have put their foot off the accelerator with their last "big thing" being the Zen Vision:M.

Overall the build quality of the Zen X-Fi is very sturdy... Read full review »

Pros none
Cons does not work coming fresh out of the box
Recommended it? No

I ordered this product from Amazon.com since there are no stores that carry the item and Creative Labs do not sell directly.  After waiting more than a week (free super saver shipping takes that long) I finally recieve the media player and discover that it is completely dead.

Great iPod - Few problems

byjohnjackson Aug 28, 2010
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros There are many useful and simple to use features
Cons There are features that are not included in the first generation of the iPod touch
Recommended it? Yes

This is a great product. I have been using this product for years now and is still as quick and reliable as ever.

Pros Very nice display
Cons Not useful and extremely overprised.
