The Zen Sleek is another Creative attempt to compete with the iPod and is one of Creatives best efforts yet to do just that. Although some people feel it lacks the design credentials of the Zen Micro the Sleek does have a bigger capacity and in fact, the vast majority of online reviews have been very impressed by the Sleek in terms of its style as well as its usability, performance and specification.
Creatives Zen Sleek uses a rechargeable battery and USB connector for recharge. It supports MP3, WAV, WMA and DRM WMA and has built-in voice recorder and FM radio. The 2 in LCD screen has a minimal blue backlight.
