  Creative Zen (8GB)
  By Jasmine France
  
  Review summary: We're hard-pressed to find anything not to like about the Creative Zen. It's a great option for anyone looking for a great-sounding, pocketable MP3 player with an excellent, video-capable screen and plenty of extra features.
  
  Pros: Sounds fantastic; features a brilliant color screen capable of displaying photos and video; SD card expansion slot; FM radio; voice recorder; user-definable EQ; slim, pocket-friendly design; very user-friendly; supports subscription music; reasonable ...
  
  Cons: Only comes in black; doesn't come close to matching the max 60GB offered by the player it's replacing
  
  Verdict: The Zen's footprint is no larger than a credit card

  Pros: Competitive price, Interface is great, DivX support, iTunes AAC support
  
  Cons: It's plastic, not aluminium
  
  Verdict: The perfect iPod nano alternative

  Creative Zen 4GB
  
  Review summary: You can't escape the fact that Apple's iPod defines portable media, but it certainly isn't the only option or the best. Take the latest addition to the Creative line-up as an example: the Zen is small, light, well designed and far more capable than ...
  
  Pros: Good screen, Better file compatibility than the iPod, Radio and SD card slot
  
  Cons: Interface not as good as the nano
  
  Verdict: If you own a PC, then this is a better media player than the iPod nano
