I love this Creative Zen Vision M 30GB. I am visualy impaired and I am still able to use display and navigate using the touch pad and symple buttons. Sounds great and I love the fact that I have thousands of my favourate songs avalable at any tiem. However, I have had some problems with the software and my device has now crashed and I am not able to reload it. I am looking to get it fixed or replaced.

I'd never trust Apple again, but the Creative is fantastic. Quite simply it's the thinking-man's (or woman's!) MP3 / video player.

The Creative ZEN Vision M 30GB is a must have object for the music lovers.
You can easily upload your music into the vision m (I hate the itunes way of uploading...creative system il more and more easily to use).
It reads mp3, avi, jpg and many other kind of files and it can record audio files. Finally it can play radio very well, without the need of any accessory.

I love my Zen Vision M and use it every day. Reliable, good battery life and great video viewing screen. The only down side is the computer software, not hugely intuitive. It's definitely 'fool proof' but doesn't allow much flexibility in moving or renaming files. Overall though, definitely one of my favorite gadgets.

I have had my Creative for just over a year and I would be lost without it! I chose Creative over an Ipod as it is easy to 'plug and play' enabling me to get copies of some friends' music using Windows Media Player and not have to have I tunes as Ipod users do.
Unlike some users, I found the touch pad easy to use with an easy interface.

In general, the Creative Zen Vision is a great product, in many aspects wins over iPod's video. Although it ask for a rather expensive price, but at this cost it is defintely worth it. Technically, I would recomend readers to get this PMP.

Simply the best on the market, you get what you pay for. If you are tired of compromising with the rest buy this!!

I have had the Creative Zen Vision M for a week and thought I had made a bad purchase at first, but after a few hours of playing around with it I found that it does all that I expected and more.

The screen is clear and the menu is easier to navigate than the ipod for me.

I have had two ipods before and found this better for many reasons but the main two I have found are being able to play most video formats without to much hastle and deleting from the unit without having to connect to a pc.

I wish I had found about this one earlier and not brought an ipod but I am now selling my ipod Nano, ipod Photo and my PSP which this will replace.

The Creative Zen Vision M is one of the best mp3 players out at the moment. A little expensive. Looks pretty good, but not as good as I-pod. Features are good but there could be more. Quality of vid, music and stuff are good. Battery life could be better, because when watching videos often it wastes quite quickly. Overall good and better than i-pod.

Looking for an MP3 Player? Want to store 1000's of songs, a load of pictures and maybe a movie or two? Want a player that will also double up as a data storage device? and while your at it, an FM radio might be nice!
THEN LOOK NO FURTHER!!

The Creative Zen Vision M 30Gb MP3 player by creative is with out doubt the best all round multi media device on the market. Not only is it small, easy to use and great to look at, it has more features and functions than all the rivals out there (including the ever so popular iPod Video).

The user interface is very easy, and it takes minuets from out of the box to happily navigate around its 30Gb of storage with simple 'strokes' of the vertical touch-pad on the front. However, occasionally there is the odd mis-selection, as tapping the central column also skips you on to the next 'page' of the user interface.

One possible downside, is that mine has produced small scratches on the shiny polished surfaces within days of removing it from the box, and the current lack of accessories is annoying in comparison to the market leaders, but I'm sure that this will pick up within weeks as the manufactures realise that this is the true rival and BEATER of the common Apple iPod.
