  • The Creative Zen X-Fis plastic design leaves a little to be desired, but that doesnt detract from the fact that the player is an incredible value overall: for an extremely competitive price you get a boatload of features and great sound quality. Spec...

  • Streams and downloads music wirelessly. FM Radio and voice recorder. Quality earphones are included.
  • User interface needs work. Most videos need to be converted with the included software. Loaded with buttons.
  • Armed with wireless streaming features, but hindered by an irksome user interface, the affordable ZEN X-Fi is a solid player, but lacks the graceful navigation of devices from Apple or Samsung....

  • Creative is marketing its new Zen X-Fi digital media player as "the sound of perfection," which unfortunately is a bit of an overstatement. It is the companys best-sounding player to date and it does sound undeniably great, but really only when X-Fi...

  • Zen fans have been looking forward to the next big thing from Creative. These fans clamored for a Zen Vision:M replacement which is, in my opinion, the best blend of MP3 players and PMPs to date. Creative’s last biggest release, the Zen, didn’t seem...

  • Abstract:  Creative Zen X-Fi: this player rocks. MP3 players are one of the most remarkable technologies of recent years. They only appeared about the turn of the millennium when a bunch of geeky guys leapt on the fact that you could store most of your CD co...

  • Crystal-clear sound, High-quality ear buds, Drag and drop, Compact and lightweight, X-Fi sound enhancer works well, Cheap
  • Wi-Fi is largely superfluous, Prone to crashing, Small, lo-res screen, Non-replaceable battery
  • The Creative Zen X-Fi is finally here, and while sound quality is excellent, the iPod Touch is still a superior product. ...

  • Stylish design, wide array of formats supported, lots of features, large storage capacity
  • Wireless connectivity of limited usefulness, keypad makes it difficult to type, X-Fi modes not worth using, SD card slot poorly implemented
  • The Creative ZEN X-Fi continues the tradition of past ZEN players, offering a compelling alternative to the iPod range. However, Wi-Fi and the X-Fi modes are poorly implemented and dont bring much to the table. ...
