    5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, small but beautifully formed, 6 Dec 2005
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Creative Zen Micro 6GB MP3 Player - Orange (Electronics)
    This little beauty is going to have to be surgically removed from my ears! I'm not the best person to give a technical review but it looks and sounds great, and as a technophobe I was thrilled to have over 200 tracks transferred in minutes.If I can do it, anyone can!
    I love the touch controls and was pleased the sensitivity can be altered, or the controls can be turned off while its in your bag/pocket.
    Love it!! And I love Amazon, always so quick

    4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Player, 9 Jan 2006

    This review is from: Creative Zen Micro 6GB MP3 Player - Orange (Electronics)
    I Got this player in retina-searing orange for Christmas and I cannot recommend the ZEN Micro enough. It looks totally different in the pictures, being more luminous marker than apparent metallic orange - the missus says it looks awful but I like it and it looks cool with the blue neon).
    I found it dead easy to use with very good software for ripping and transferring music. Headphones are OK but lose the plot a bit when heavy-ish bass comes on e.g. dance music, so I've ordered the Premium accessory kit which has better buds along with a mains supply, skin and extra battery.
    Very happy with the battery life itself, haven't timed it but easily 10 hours play-time. Also 6GB is plenty as I will probably just get bored of what's on it in a couple of months and transfer new stuff on. It only takes 20-odd seconds to load up an album once it's been ripped so no hassle at all. Their advertising of 3000 song-capacity is all well and good, but I don't imagine 64kbps would sound that fantastic, so 128kbps would be a better compromise to go for and still have enough music to listen to.
    The only reason I've not given it the full 5-stars is that on a couple of occasions it has booted up and the screen has frozen with half of the ZEN Micro logo still showing. The music started playing no problem and the screen sorted itself after about 10 seconds, but still something to keep an eye on.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, 23 Dec 2005
    This review is from: Creative Zen Micro 6GB MP3 Player - Orange (Electronics)
    Ive heard this MP3 player described as an iPod killer and can honestly see why, the FM radio and just about scratch resistant body hold its own against the reign of apple on the MP3 market, the new neeon is definatley going to be another hit from creative and if i had the money id buy it quite simply. The colour choice has to be one of the greatest aspects of this outstanding personal MP3 player, FM radio and personal organsier with the peace of mind that your MP3 player wont scratch or break if you press to hard and the revolutionising vertical pad as creative say "no more going round in circles". My overall review of this product would be a 5* rating and in a memory format to suit all theres little room for improvements.
