The Creative Zen X-Fi is finally here, and while sound quality is excellent, the iPod Touch is still a superior product.

    Love this little thing (I have the 8GB version), so much better than IPOD. Even the onboard speakers are pretty good. Looks beautiful, easy to use, good effects. I personally find the X-Fi enhancer stuff superfluous but those hi-treble and stereo imaging freaks out there will love it!

    • Good: beautiful player, good sound, nice interface
    • Bad: some video not supported

    • Good: looks fantastic, deffinatly the upgrade im looking for
    • Bad: i dont have the player yet so i wouldn't know

    A great piece of equipment works well, and it does support lossless media i dono who did the testing but it has WAv capibilities and that is lossless?
    (im going with the 32GB version though)

    • Good: Easy to use
      Great Sound
      Good Price
      Video Playback
      Good FM radio with Pre-sets
      Cool butten Setup
      Wi-Fi (even though its a bit hard to set up)
      SD card input for more space of picture viewing
      ..........................................................

    • Bad: Small Screen Resolution.
      Playback of some Video types not supported
      Some Lag and Freezing..(not that often)

    The shiny faceplate with silvery edges and matte metallic backplate reminds me of my old Toshiba Gigabeat S!

    • Good: Good audio quality apparently.
      Nice design - even if it is a gigabeat rip off!
      Good included headphones.
    • Bad: Price- flash is still too expensive- i'd rather buy an ipod classic 80GB than a 16GB zen x-fi for more money.
      Wireless features are gimmicky.
      screen small compared to ipod touch.
