Tweaknews puts the Creative Zen Vision portable media player through its paces in a very detailed review, extending to 9 pages, with the reviewer, not surprisingly, suggesting you put the kettle on and settle down to read it with a nice cuppa.
With Creative’s second release they have really surpassed all expectations. They have a feature packed player released for a good price. Of course it’s lacking recording capabilities from external sources but if you wanted those the price would almost double and this would no longer be a media player but rather a portable media recorder. The screen is very beautiful even given the very narrow viewing angles. Sharing a movie is out of the question but viewing it on your own is fine.
Pros:
• High resolution screen that’s easy to view even in sunshine.
• Large number of codecs supported.
• Supported by a variety of useful accessories.
• Quality solid build.
• Outstanding audio quality.
• Brilliant audio/video out functionality.
• Mains and/or USB charging even when transferring files.
Cons:
• Software support is a bit limited (video conversion capabilities aren’t great).
• Little to no protection of the screen.
• LCD has very narrow viewing angles.
• Video and audio synching issues with some codecs.
