Strengths: Sound quality, screen size and quality, metal body, removable battery, A/V out (cables included), removable disk mode.
Weakness: Poor off-angle screen visibility, can't create or update tasks or contacts on the fly.
Bottom line....I got sick of carrying around CDs...and scratching them....and wearing out gears in my car's aftermarket CD player. I needed a portable player with an A/V output and excellent sound quality to interface with my high end car stereo. Creative Labs has designed outstanding sound cards for the computer and their reputation in sound quality attracted me to the Zen Vision. With a S/N...
Strengths: size, 30gigs, battery, best navigation ever, insanely brillent screen, removable battery, FM radio, resolution, speaker, infared.
Weakness: Doesnt come with a docking station but they are available for sale. No remote but is for sale. Not many accesories like to plug it into a sound system. Cant record TV.
The Zen vision rocks hardcore. The sound quality is great, and it has a long battery. Its fairly small but still looks awesome. The battery is removable which is a huge plus. As i said above it cant reconize avi which sucks but avi can be converted to divx. And im sure with a firmware update it could. The zen has the easiest navigation i have ever used. I recommend this to anyone who is moderatly...
Strengths: -Very high quality video & picture -Removable Battery -User friendly -When listening to music & on HOLD, no screen display -> convserves battery -Has skip, FF at faster rates (1x,2x,3x), and skip 15 seconds
Weakness: -No folder navigation -Speaker volume is quite weak -Not enough accessories -Can't play Dvix3; but converter can convert Dvix3, MKV files -Bad vision from leftside viewing, must view from right side
Before buying this product, consider the strength, weakness, features, and other factors. -Harddrive: High storage capacity, but do expect to freeze & delay. When FFing, skipping 15 seconds, or selecting different audio/video, there may be some delay of a few seconds or less from time to time. -Battery: Although listed as 13 hrs of audio, 4.5 hrs of video, these are test due to minimal usage of...
Strengths: Ability to view, photos,video and listen to music all on one device. USB connection for ease of downloading music from the internet. Compact Flash on board to load photos direct.
Weakness: Can sometimes be a little slow to load initially. Battery life could be longer. The screen is a little difficult to view in sunlight.
When I first purchased this I thought it was a bit pricey and wondered if I would use it enough. It runs circles around Ipod. I have found I use it almost everyday. At night I set the timer and fall asleep to music. I can take photos to show friends, set the device to slide show, let them pick a favorite song and they get a totally interactive experience. By simply plugging it in to the TV I can...
Strengths: 30 gb, easy to use, great quality, easy to navigate
Weakness: no folder navigation, freezing, a little slow, fast forward
I like everything about this media player, the weaknesses are listed above. The fast forward button does not skip to the next video. The media player froze couple times already and it is brand new...
Strengths: Everyting is super - except listed in weaknesses
Weakness: Using it as an external storage device is a little cumbersome. Recording (except notes) is missing.
I wish it could get pictures directly from my digital camera via USB. Other than that it is still the best product of this kind on the market. Bravo Creative!
Strengths: 30 GB HD and Video
Weakness: Windows only
Great piece of equipment. I just downloaded an album fron ipod and ran a program to convert from m4p to mp3 then I transfered it to the Zen. Video, is a problem. Downloaded a music vid from apple and can't find anything that will work yet.
Strengths: Make play lists on the go, Built in speaker, Great display, Controls are very easy to learn/use, Removable/replaceable battery, Video out also look very good. Unit has a built in fm radio
Weakness: Screen seems to get glares easily, Very easy to get finger prints on the screen. Nothing a Screen protector will not fix.
The Zen Vision Seems Like a better choice of mp3/media player. It plays most video and audio formats. I would suggest using the software from there site, Also upgrade the firmware. Video is superb compared to some other players I have had. Being able to take the battery out to replace/update is a Great option. A lot of other players do not have this option.
Strengths: loads of pics , movies and songs you can keep at one place.
Weakness: battery life is not that much, only 14 hours.
impresses anyone who wants to carry all their digital entertainment files. The Vision W is for serious multimedia guys. Has an ENORMOUS screen that makes it seem like it's more of a video player than an MP3 player.
If you want to show your digital photos on the go and have a fair amount of video sitting on your hard drive, the Zen Vision’s excellent screen and slim design are well worth the price of admission. Thanks to a ton of improvements, the Creative Zen Vision is one of the best portable media players around. <p> <p>

After the reasonably successful launch of its first mobile audio and video player, the Zen PMC, Creative now attempts to add sexiness to mobility with its second attempt--and the final result is not bad at all. A sleek design, a brushed-metal finish and extreme compactness all add to the Zen Vision's seduction. Think of it as an attempt to capture the iPod's look and feel, except it is a video...

The PERFECT combination of form & function in an mp3...
Strengths: 1. High quality screen, 2. Thin, sleek design, 3. Supports variety of Audio/Video formats, 4. Removable battery, 5. Integreated Speaker/Voice Recorder/FM Recorder/Compact Flash Reader, 6. Easy to use
Weakness: 1. Limited viewing angle, 2. No zoom function for pictures, 3. Limited availability of accessories
The display is stunning. When I first turned it on, I was speechless! It has a 4x bigger resolution than an iPod video/Creative Zen Vision M: at 640x480 (VGA) and 3.7". My only complaint on this is the limited viewing angle. This becomes a slight problem when sharing with another person. But for invidiual viewing, it ian't a matter of concern. The design is thin and sleek. At 0.9 inches thin,...
