Amazon.com Product Description
With a tiny, eye-catching design, smooth contours, and a discreet size, the Creative Zen V Plus 4 GB Portable Media Player fits perfectly in your palm and slides effortlessly into your smallest pocket. With 4 GB of storage space,


A 1.5-inch OLED screen displays rich and vibrant photos, as well as the easy-to-use Creative interface. View all Zen V Plus features.


Not much bigger than a pair of earbuds! (black and orange model shown) See the Zen V Plus in 3D.
the Zen V Plus holds up to 2,000 songs, and the 1.5-inch OLED screen displays rich and vibrant photos, full-color menus, and album art at any viewing angle. Another great feature built right into the Zen V Plus is the tiny device's ability to support subscription services and pay-per-download music. Plus, you'll never sweat formats--the Zen V Plus plays the broadest selection of MP3 and WMA music. And browsing your music collection has never been easier with Creative's innovative interface that enables effective and intuitive navigation and track selection. The Plus has an extra feature that it's predecessor lacked: the ability to play short video clips. With the Zen V Plus you can watch short clips in transcoded video format and impress your friends with the latest tidbits from the web or a brief glimpse of a home video.

Another great feature is a Direct CD Recording function that allows you to record songs directly from a CD player or other audio source without using a PC as an intermediary. You no longer need to burn CDs to your PC then download to your MP3 player. Just connect an audio device directly to your Zen V Plus, and record your favorite CDs, records, beats and more, direct from the source. Meanwhile, automatic track detection separates each song for you--a handy feature when you're converting analog (records and cassette tapes) to digital. If organization is a high priority, the Zen V Plus's Personal Organizer will help you stay connected and in-sync with your Microsoft Outlook information. Just connect the Zen V Plus to your PC, sync your Outlook information, and you'll be ready to carry around your contacts, calendar, and to-do lists right in your pocket. Plus, the Zen V Plus uses a handy built-in microphone to double as a voice recorder, so you can capture notes, record lectures, and more.



No matter how you hold it, the Zen V Plus is just the right size.
Creative knows that sporty is sexy, and this player is ideal for any workout junkie. The skip-free playback is perfect on your morning jog or your most rigorous workout at the gym. The optional armband and case fit comfortably on your arm and keep your Zen V Plus safe and secure while running or lifting. The Zen V Plus player was designed for people who appreciate style and function. Don't be surprised when people take notice of your cool, colorful music and photo player. You can proudly announce that your device carries up to 2,000 songs, and you can show off your favorite photos and video clips that you've stored on this pocket-sized powerhouse.


What's in the Box
Creative Zen V Plus, earphones, drawstring pouch, lanyard, USB 2.0 cable, line-in cable, neck strap, installation CD including user manual, and quick start guide.

5 out of 5 stars Book people rejoice   July 24, 2008
I use my Zen mostly for books. It has 9 books on it today as well as about 100 songs. It has 10 bookmarks (both Zen and Zen plus). I am suprised this is not listed as a feature. My 80 year old mother loves hers.


5 out of 5 stars worth the price   July 24, 2008
I have always used Sony mini Disk recorders as a backup sound track for recording at weddings that I videotape. But the download was all real time so I found the Zen V plus 4 gig which is so perfect. It was one of the few that have the line in jack and the wires to go with it.I can record on auto and it will record only when their is a signal coming in, saves power.the quality is good and now I can drag and drop the track in seconds.4 gig is a lot of space. I have downloaded music in it and listen to it during my daily walks. really good sound quality. Battery life is really good too.
Very happy with it.

1 out of 5 stars Not worth the trouble   July 22, 2008
Despite an enticing price and feature set, the ZEN V Plus falls far short of competitors such as the iPod. Both me and my brother received a ZEN for Christmas about 2 years ago, and it wasn't long before the screen on mine died, and I had to send it in for warranty repair ($25+, even though the device was in warranty!!). After some ridiculously awful dealings with tech support, I got my player back, with a new screen. Shortly afterwards, right after the warranty expired, my brother's ZEN's screen died.

I ended up getting an iPod the next august (as part of a special promo deal with my Macbook) and it really was worth the slight extra cost. I've had no problems with it (other than the shoddy included headphones) and it is really a much better product over all.

Although there are some very nice features on this player, I'd have to say that due to the experiences I have had with it, and my brother's player, I will not be purchasing any Creative mp3 players in the future.



4 out of 5 stars works great   July 18, 2008
the sound quality is very good, i like being able to just drag & drop files into the player have not found any problems with it so far


5 out of 5 stars Awesome device!!!   July 16, 2008
I love this player for several reasons. It has radio without having to purchase anything extra. It's small. In syncs with Windows Media Player 11. I haven't tried out the software because the player works so well with WMP. It's small and easy to use. Pictures look surprisingly great on such a small screen. I've seen some people complain about it freezing, but I haven't had any such problems. In the year that I've had it has shut off randomely and I've had to reset it with a paper clip. That is my only complaint. Worth it for all the other great qualities. The sound is great, too!
