5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly Small and Beautifully Unique, 21 May 2007

Well done Creative another fine product to add to your list,Thankyou.
I bought this player for my husband aged 64 years, and when it arrived my heart sank, I wondered what he would say about this tiny little thing, he needed a magnifying glass to read the instructions.
But we are both blown away at this little miracle, simple to operate and the sound quality is amazing I have even ordered one for myself and judging by the response from my grandchildren I think my christmas list has already started.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little gem!, 12 July 2007
By 
R. F. Pyke (Kidlington, Oxfordshire England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Creative Zen Stone 1gb MP3 Player - Blue (Electronics)
This really is a little gem and is simplicity itself to use. Congratulations to Creative who have managed to produce something that is practical, simple and a triumph of design. There is no vulnerable screen to worry about and, thus, no tedious, confusing menus to wade through. You can simply drag and drop your files without the need for additional software. The buttons are conveniently placed and they are not too small for those of us with larger fingers to manage. Battery life is very good and it conveniently recharges from your USB. Equally importantly, there is plenty of volume and the sound quality is excellent. All this, combined with the fact that it is so neat & light to carry around and at a bargain price, make this a real winner. You would, however, be well advised to buy a case or silicon skin for it; there are no clips or loops on the player itself so you either have to hold on to it or put it in a pocket! A mains charger is also desirable if you aren't always going to be in reach of a computer!

4.0 out of 5 stars Sleek little Stone, 18 July 2007
This review is from: Creative Zen Stone 1gb MP3 Player - Blue (Electronics)
This was purchased as a temporary replacement for my Zen Micro while it's being (hopefully) repaired by Creative and so far so good. It's certainly extremely small and lightweight however I must admit to wondering about its overall build strength and ability to take the occasional knock. Battery life appears better than average (maybe the last reviewer didn't fully charge the player before using it therefore shortening the battery's memory?) and the volume perfectly adequate. I haven't used the supplied earphones since I dislike the inner ear kind and would rather use larger and more expensive headphones. Its controls are certainly simplistic and rather than creating playlists, you merely create folders which the player goes through in turn. There is a shuffle option which I would have liked to somehow randomly play the songs within each individual folder but it appears to shuffle all songs within all folders, meaning you're as likely to get Metallica next to Madonna as you are next to Marilyn Manson!

I only ever choose MP3/WMA format players as you can usually just copy and paste music files into the devices or simply use them purely as removable storage. I've never been too sure why people rave so much over Apple products since I personally think their transfer software is vile to use and the players themselves of only average quality. Thankfully, unlike the two Philips MP3 players I've temporarily had, the Zen Stone has been flawless at connecting to my computer, the Creative Lite software very intuitive to use and it seems to play all music files regardless of which download site they came from.

I'm not entirely sure what I'll do with it once (or if!) my bigger Zen Micro comes back from Creative, whether it'll go back in the box or whether it'll even supersede its bigger brother. Not quite a five star product due to its obvious limitations, but for those looking to take their music on the move without attracting unwelcome attention, it comes highly recommended and at half the price of the iPod shuffle.
