Creative Zen Stone Plus review: Creative Zen Stone Plus

 

Creative Zen Stone Plus

The Creative Zen Stone Plus comes in a choice of six colors and offers 2GB of storage for less than $70. It includes some handy extras, such as an FM tuner, a stopwatch, and a voice recorder. The player also has good sound quality.

The Zen Stone Plus interface is not totally intuitive, and the screen is too small to display full track info. It also doesn't offer full ID3 tag sorting for music, and the rated battery life is unimpressive.

For those who want a supersmall and cute MP3 player that offers more than just simple music playback, the Creative Zen Stone Plus fits the bill nicely.

Creative ZEN Stone Plus

 

The latest in Creative's simple player line is a mixed bag; it's got more storage space and features, but it's no longer dirt cheap, and you'll find the interface clunky.

Small and lightweight. FM radio. Voice recording. Stopwatch and clock. EQ options. Can delete songs on device itself. Snazzy date/time display.

Short USB cable. So-so earbuds. Annoyingly long start-up time. No way to monitor voice recorder.

The Creative Zen Stone Plus is a tiny, minuscule player that includes all the necessary portable music functions at a reasonable price and more.

Creative Zen Stone Plus Review

 

Shortly after Creative released its screenless Shuffle competitor, the Zen Stone, they upped the ante and released the Zen Stone Plus. For around thirty dollars more, the Stone Plus added a screen and a few fairly standard MP3 player features such as...

Solid Build, Small form factor, Nice selection of optional accessories, MSC (any OS)

Awkward interface, Cannot browse individual songs, Lagging interface when music is playing, Poor FM reception

First I would like to say I am a fan of Creative's Zen line of MP3 players. Although they have their issues and deficiencies like any MP3 player, overall they are a solid product line. The Zen Stone Plus has some good things going for it such as MSC...

Creative's ZEN Stone Plus is another good entry into the digital music market. It does suffer from poor battery life and a slightly slow interface, but if you're after a small and relatively stylish unit, it is a reasonable choice.

Creative Zen Stone Plus

 

Killing Apple's Shuffle stone-dead? Jon's not so sure…

But this pales into insignificance next to the second handicap, which is that you can't actually browse the music on the player freely while listening to music. Try switching albums in the music browser mode and the player instantly starts playing from...
