Amazon Product Description
The Zen Micro digital music player from Creative Labs packs an incredible 6 GB of storage capacity into a shell small enough to sit comfortably in your jeans pocket. It also rides nicely in your hand, with a palm-fitting profile and thumb-friendly front-panel controls. It's a bit shorter than an Apple iPod Mini, yet its rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides 12 hours of continuous playback--50 percent more than iPod Mini's. The Zen Micro is compatible not merely with MP3s and WAV files, but with WMA as well. Toss in USB 2.0 connectivity and you're looking at one spiffy portable music player.
 |
But playing isn't all the Zen Micro does. You can use it to receive FM radio (with 32 station presets to keep your favorites at the ready), and to record, either from the radio or from live sources such as voice dictation or lectures using the built-in condenser microphone.
Trimmed in a luminescent blue glow and with easily visible backlit buttons, this stylish orange player holds up to 1,500 songs (99 hours) at 128 kbps or 3,000 songs (198 hours) at lower-fidelity 64 kbps (MP3/WMA)--that's a solid week's worth of music listening, never playing the same song twice. Compatibility with Microsoft's WMA compressed-audio format grants access to over 2 million downloadable songs offered promotionally or for sale online.
Perhaps the Zen Micro's coolest attribute is its DJ feature, which will shuffle not only all the songs you've loaded or all the songs on a given album, but also, at your discretion, only the tracks you listen to most or the ones you rarely hear, taking the work out of selecting your favorites or hunting out all the music you're still getting to know. |
| For navigation, the device features a vertical, linear touchpad designed to make searching through songs or playlists easy, quick, and fun. The unit's blue, 160 x 104-pixel, electroluminescent LCD shows key functions and song details at a glance, and you can even customize the main menu to keep right at your fingertips the features that matter most to you.
Another of the Zen Micro's handy features is its personal organizer. You'll never forget an important anniversary with the onboard calendar, and it also includes a to-do list and a contacts list, all of which sync seamlessly with Microsoft Outlook (Outlook thus required for use of these features). Further, the device offers a sleep timer and alarm so you can drift off to sleep to the strains of one playlist and wake to a completely different one.
The Zen Micro's removable battery is easy to swap with another fully charged battery (additional batteries sold separately), extending your listening by a half-day per swap. |
Zen Micro's rechargeable battery is easy to replace. |

Zen Micro's Removable Disk mode lets you connect your player to the computer and directly copy the files you need.

Customer Reviews:
pretty good mp3 player...but it doesnt last too long.......2007-12-10
i've had this mp3 player for about 2 years now and it's been pretty good. Well it was for about a year anyway. After that the buttons pretty much stopped working. At first, it was just one and then gradually they all stopped working. It really sucks because this is a good mp3 player and it holds all my music but now i cant use it because the buttons dont work. Besides the buttons not working, it also doesnt hold a charge for very long. It lasts for about 4 hours until it dies. If you want a mp3 player that lasts long and is durable then you should probably keep looking because this definitly doesnt. But it was good while it lasted =/
AWESOME PRODUCT!!!.......2007-09-26
I've own one of these before and went back to buying another one. GREAT PRODUCT and very user-friendly.
DOES NOT WORK WITH VISTA........2007-09-16
I wish someone had told me that. It doesn't say this anywhere in the specs. It only mentions "minimum requirements."
I just wasted my money.
I love mine! Would be lost with out it........2007-08-18
I've had my Creative Zen 6 GB for almost a year now. It was a little hard to learn, but once you learn it is easy to use. I have 1424 songs on mine and its still not full. Love the sound of it. I would recommend it to anyone, thats tried of portable cd players and wants something smaller and that will hold twice as many songs.
love it.......2007-07-24
this is our 3rd one. love the radio. very easy to use.

Don't waste your money.......2007-10-21
After just several months my Zen Micro stopped working. Won't charge, won't come on, nothing. I never even dropped it or anything. I looked on the web for tips and found TONS of people have had the exact same problem with theirs. I wish I had just bought an IPOD like I wanted in the first place. It also looks like creative isn't helpful at all. Research the web before you buy this product!
Very bad company!.......2007-08-25
I paid over $200 for this product and have owned it for over a year. It stopped working altogether. No music, no nothing. So what will the company do about that?... nothing! By checking their website, I have found out that after 60 days of use of the product, they charge $12.99 just to talk to you about any problem. So I sent them an e-mail instead. Their website said they would respond for free. Four days later... no response. So what to do?... throw the $200 product away and buy a new one or pay them their $12.99 just to ask them what if anything I can do? The Creative company sucks big time and should be avoided.
ZEN MALFUNCTIONS A LOT!.......2007-06-04
I'd rate the Zen Micro 0 stars, but it isn't available. I used to like this player; it was cheaper and smaller than a regular Ipod. The first problem I had was the headphone jack. I had to send it out to get fixed. As soon as I got it back it worked okay. A couple of days later, I noticed that it kept freezing on me. I had to open up the back and take the battery out almost every time I turned on the player.
All I have had was problem after problem with this mp3 player and the customer service sucks! They charge you for the call and then refund you if you have to send your creative product back to them for repair.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT!!!
No problems for us..........2007-03-06
Maybe we got lucky or something, but our unit never had the headphone jack issue. It never froze up, or quit working. The sound was good and the unit performs as well today as when we got it. After flashing it with the latest system software, it worked well with Windows Media Player, but didn't like the Creative sofware anymore. There is some updated Creative software for it, but since WMP was working so well we decided not to mess with it. One star deducted for the smaller non-color screen that's hard to read with my 50+ year old eyesight. No regrets on purchase. Upgrading to a Zen Vision M with HUGE color screen!
Unit froze constantly and died.......2006-10-01
I really loved this player-when it worked right, that is. Or should I say was. The player froze all the time, usually atleast once a day. I didn't really mind, many of the micro drive players tend to do this seeing as they have mini harddrives in there. All I would do is pop off the back cover slide the battery out just enough for the pins to release off of the battery contacts and restart the player. I got so good at doing this I could do it while running haha. One day while leaving to jog I turn the player on and it freezes. No biggie I figure. Go through the normal routine with the battery etc etc. I go to turn the unit back on and DEAD. This is where I stand with it now. I lost my receipt so I cant return it to Creative for service. I really loved this player. The only problem I had was the freezing. The thing I liked the most about it is that it was LOUD. If you like music loud this is the player.
PROS:
Media explorer interface was good. Loading songs onto player was easy.
Sound and volume good even with supplied earbuds.
CONS:
Unit contantly froze and eventually died.
