Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)

Creative Zen X-Fi2 (32GB) review

 

This multimedia player may represent good value, but while Apple's around, its performance is just mediocre

Price ; large colourful menu system ; long battery life

Sluggish touchscreen ; music lacks clarity and detail ; cramped screen when watching video

The X-Fi2 2 represents decent value, but nothing more. There’s definitely room for improvement, even at this price

Creative Zen X-Fi 2 review

 

Creative's first touchscreen MP3 player - but does it measure up?

Excellent sound quality ; X-Fi expand works! ; The price is right ; microSD expansion ; Good earphones bundled

Touchscreen is horrible ; No one-hand operation ; Sluggish menu system ; Plasticky design

Creative ZEN X-Fi2 review

 

The Creative ZEN X-fi2 is a light and compact PMP that has plenty of features under its hood. It has a simple look and clean design.The body front has a dark glossy finish with a chrome bezel. It is mainly occupied by a 3-inch TFT resistive touch...

Priced at £99 the Creative ZEN X-fi2 is a good PMP for its wide format support and sound quality. However, its rather slow response and the non-responsive touchscreen stopped it from becoming a superior product.

Creative Zen X-Fi 2 16GB review

 

Creative's Zen X-Fi 2 bears more than a passing resemblance to the iPod Touch with its metal back and large touchscreen, but is designed to be held horizontally instead of vertically.

Creative's Zen X-Fi 2 is a good MP3 player with excellent battery life that's let down by a very poor touchscreen.

Creative X-Fi2 16GB review

 

The X-Fi2 may have a welterweight price, but with a touchscreen and FLAC support Creative's PMP isn't pulling any punches

A multimedia powerhouse it isn’t, but this little Creative supplies satisfyingly big sound and for a tiny price

Review: Creative Zen X-Fi 2 mp3 Player

 

Creative released their first touchscreen mp3 player, the Zen X-Fi 2, at the tail-end of last year as un updated version of the Zen X-Fi , which was – and still remains – a reasonably popular player with the anti-iPod mob.

The dodgy touchscreen really lets down the Zen X-Fi 2 in a big way, but if this isn’t going to bother you, you’ll be hard pressed to find a music player with better sound quality. Of course, if you’ve got the money and the patience, it may be worth...
