REVIEWS: Creative Zen Nano vs iRiver T20 MP3 Players- via TrustedReviews
TrustedReviews put the Creative Zen Nano and iRiver T20 flash based MP3 players up against each other:
I really wanted to like the Creative Zen Nano. The critical factor - its sound quality- is excellent, it is generally easy to use and on top of this it has a decent pair of headphones in the box. It is also light, rugged and very small.But despite all of this, its looks, the irritating lack of a browse feature and the absence of rechargeability out of the box undermines all of the good work. And at £65 I’m afraid to say it isn’t exactly the best value 512MB player around either.
Despite the iRiver T20’s tiny size and good looks, iriver is going to have to try a lot harder than this if it is to make any kind of impact on Apple’s increasingly dominant hold on the MP3 player market.
As it is it’s just about on a par with Creative’s Zen Nano – better in some ways, not as good in others. But even if the T20 was improved, and iriver made it easier to use, cheaper than the £72.99 it is listed at at the moment, and ironed all of the kinks out, it would still struggle to be a serious iPod nano contender.
