Creative Nomad MuVo 2 4GB - Expert Reviews

Review summary: Itty-bitty hard-drive audio player could use a few improvements.

Verdict: This tiny hard-drive-based player is handy if you need a small device (or a Microdrive card), but look elsewhere for a better interface.

Pros: Compact ; excellent sound quality ; long-lasting, replaceable, rechargeable battery

Cons: Small display and controls ; carrying case covers all buttons

Verdict: Design quirks aside, this tiny player carries 4GB, sounds great, and is priced to move.

Pros: Good sound quality, better battery life than iPod

Cons: 80 more than iPod Mini at launch

Verdict: The RRP of this player makes it £80 more expensive than the iPod Mini and the premium gives you nothing more. That said this is still a competent player that offers a good sound and if the price were to come down it would be a close call.

Review summary: The lightweight MuVo² scores on size and sound, but its uninspired style, build and physical ergonomics are a major letdown.

Review summary: Creative just released its MuVo²s, two compact MP3 players with massive storage capacities, including a 1.5GB hybrid which stores up to 36 hours of music.
