Good Points

Clear sound, good volume, smaller than an iPod mini, cute, radio, 5gb (1gb more than the iPod mini), cheaper than the iPod mini, can record the radio, play lists, play modes, microphone, organiser, interesting keypad, nice blue glow, nice range of colours, and a nice click sound when buttons are pressed.


Bad Points

Headphone jack broke but I sent it off and got a replacement the next day!


General Comments

I get a clear sound from the Creative Zen Labs Micro Blue MP3 player ear phones. The volumes good... it can go really loud!
It has 5gb (1gb more than the iPod mini) and is smaller and cheaper (at the time of purchase) than the iPod mini!
Such functions as radio, the ability to record the radio, play lists, play modes, microphone, and organiser, are all good and handy!
It's cute, has an interesting keypad (can be a bit fiddly at first), a nice blue glow round the edge and on the buttons, a nice range of colours, and a nice click sound when the buttons are pressed!

One problem. I think it was to do with the first batch though. The headphone jack broke, but I sent it off and got a replacement the next day! Every cloud has its silver lining! The replacement was the 5GB one, just like the one before. There are now 6GB ones. My replacement is cuter and easier to use than the first one.

The battery life isn't amazing as it was said, but enough to listen to on quite a few long distance car journeys, and it comes with a spare battery anyway, so it is fine!

If you're thinking of buying one now, you won't get the faulty batch. I suggest you buy this, and be different from the iPod fad!

Overall it is a smashing MP3 HD player!
