Creative NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra MP3 Player Reviews

63 People rated this product :

"I would suggest anyone looking to buy an mp3 player to consider the Zen Extra. It has exceeded my expectations in every way."
Feature:
I love the features but the off on could be improved by a off on button instead of pushing a button until players reads shutting down which takes about 3 seconds

Quality:
It looks sharp and plays sharp. If there are any weaknesses it would be the removable front which seems to be frail but so far hasn't given me a problem

Value:
Compare the price and quality to Ipod and there is simpley no comparson. Ipod is very expensive and if the battery goes bad you need to send it to Ipod and they will replace it for aprox. 90 dollars or more. Plus the quality of the sound in my opinion beats Ipod hands down.

Desirability:
It is larger than Ipod but has a very appealing all alumniun case and a blue backlit window which is easy to read the info. I also purchased the small travel speakers which have a great look and wonderful sound.

Sound:
The supplied earbuds are really bad. A fine pair of headphones included would be a vast improvement even if the price is a little more.

Support:
I emailed them with a problem and received a prompt answer that resolved my problem immediately.

Overall:
I have owned my Creative Zen Extra for 1 year now and haven't experienced any problems. Battery life is great, sound is wonderful, and the software easy to use. I use this product aprox. 4 hours per day for seven days a week on average.
