Creative Zen Sleek for Pre-Order

Creative

By: Grahm Skee on July 22, 2005 11:11 AM

You can now pre-order the Creative Zen Sleek on Creative’s website selling for £199.99 including VAT and shipping. Sorry Americans, it is only selling in the European market. We don’t know when it will come stateside; the US has yet to see the Zen and the Zen Neeon.

Note to Creative: Simplify your product line it creates consumer confusion. Drop your MuVo line completely; you are cannibalizing your own product lines. Concentrate on the Zen product line and build the Zen brand. Quantity is not better than quality.

Update: It is now on sale!

Hey look, it's a silver iPod mini! Oh wait, it's crappy.

I have recently been looking for an mp3 player, and i am not so convinced with the ipod. I have 180 pounds to spend, and ive been doing my homework. I fancied a Creative as i rely on them for good sound. Was thinking about the Zen Micro but 5-6 gb was not enough space. Looked at Zen Touch 40 gb was too much. Looked at Zen sleek compared it to ipod. Few mm smaller in height, width and deph. Longer battery life: 18 hours. When ipod is 12. And also i was amazed how you can listen to fm radio. Looking forward for this ariving next week. I give some more feedback then.

Samsung P2

The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.
Toshiba Gigabeat T400

The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.
SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.
Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
JAYS q-JAYS

The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
