Creative has been involved in the mp3 market since the beginning and this latest creation has a touch screen and excellent sound. In fact the main pro of this unit is the X-Fi sound. X-Fi sound is audio that sounds like speakers in your home instead of listening to a pair of earphones. With X-Fi2 that comes with this unit, you get super audio clarity with all formats including mp3s, movies, video, and FM radio. The quality noise isolating earphones that come with this unit don’t hurt either.
Since touch screens are all the rage these days this one comes with a 3-inch TFT LCD touchscreen, for easy navigation. It supports multiple audio formats, and has a built in speaker so you can share your music out loud. It also has an integrated FM radio and a voice recorder. Who doesn’t like the sound of their own voice?
This unit has a 32 GB storage capacity and a slot for a micro SD card for further expansion. It also has a video out jack so you can share movies and photos by hooking it to a television set. As far as organization it has a built in alarm, calendar, tasks, and contacts. Another cool feature I like about the Zen X-Fi is you can download RSS feeds with it. You have to sync it to your computer via USB, but then later on when you are at work, or waiting in line at the Doctor’s office, you can catch up on the latest news and your favorite blogs.
This player is nice and looks good, the touch screen isn’t the most intuitive but, it isn’t bad. This player is lightweight and easily fits in your pocket and can be a great source of entertainment when you have downtime through out the day. But the biggest reason to purchase this player is because of the sound. If you actually want an mp3 player and sound quality is your main concern the Creative Zen X-Fi2 is a good choice.
