Ever since the iPod mini and the successive Nano player arrived in the market, many manufacturers were determined to defeat this digital audio device - either by emulating its abilities, or by bringing innovativeness to their own products, or both. Touted as "iPod killers", these players did create a fierce competition for Apple's flagship product, but none of them managed to overthrow Apple from its throne.

These were the thoughts that ran through my mind when the Creative Zen made its way into the test labs. It looked pretty neat on paper, but is it "the" media player that will end the iPod reign, I thought? Let us find out



Bundle

- Creative ZEN
- Ear-phone
- USB 2.0 cable
- Quick Start Leaflets
- Installation CD

Also, the USB cable bundled is a rather short one. Of course, any other USB cable can be used, but why to give a short one in package? Also, External SD card is treated as different device. It does not get integrated with the library. May be Creative can come up with a firmware which has a function where one can integrate data on SD card with player's library... I bought this player a mnth back and its performing awesome. Agreed, bundled headphones r not good. I bought myself a new pair and then i understood the power of the player. Video is awesome. 4.5/5.

Cons: Bundled ear-phones could have been better?? The bundle DOES contain a ear-phone set! Get real guys. Moderate!

You mention that the UI is stunning but have not put in a picture of that. Why?
