Abstract: While the Zen X-Fi is loaded with features and boasts superb sound quality, it’s too slow and frustrating to put many of these features to good use. Creative clearly wanted Instant Message capabilities for the X-Fi, but this had lead to the clunky key...
Abstract: The Fi stands for Fiddly. Well conceived and well made, but gets some of the basics wrong and isnt pleasant to use. The ZEN X-Fi is a portable media player that can not only store your music, photos and videos in its 16GB of memory, but also str...

Abstract: Creatives Zen X-Fi is one of only three players here to have integrated wireless networking, so it can play music from a UPnP media server. It doesnt have a web browser, like the iPod Touch or the Archos 5, but it has an instant messaging program...
Its an outstanding digital music player that rises to the top with ease. The masses may continue to think iPod first when they need a new MP3 player - but it will be a shame if they do. The Creative Zen X-Fi is arguably the most innovative, feature-p...
