Microsoft Zune 8GB Professional Reviews:

  • PCMag Reviewed Microsoft Zune 8GB and gave out ”Bottom Line:The first flash-based Zune is a good-looking, easy-to-navigate device that can be synced with your PC wirelessly, but its small screen and jumpy interface are no match for Apple’s superior iPod nano. Pros:Works seamlessly with redesigned Zune Marketplace. Navigation pad works well. Excellent graphics. Bundled earbuds aren’t bad. Customizable rear panel. Syncs to PCs wirelessly.Cons: Screen is too small. Headphone jack poorly designed. Interface can freeze up. Player-to-player wireless can be fickle. Full wireless syncing capability will be added in a firmware update.”
  • Cnet Reviewed Microsoft Zune 8GB and gave out ”The good:The flash-based 4GB and 8GB Microsoft Zune MP3 players feature a 1.8-inch glass LCD, an easy-to-use interface, exceptional navigation control, audio and video podcast support, and FM radio. It also includes wireless syncing and sharing, revamped Zune Marketplace PC software, Zune Pass subscription music support, good audio quality, and a range of color options.The bad:The Zune 4 and Zune 8 players are PC-only devices that require their own software and still don’t support older WMA-DRM9 music files, nor does Zune Marketplace offer TV or movie downloads. The Zune’s USB connection is proprietary, there’s no Wi-Fi music streaming, and the first-generation EQ feature has been removed. The bottom line: The 4GB and 8GB capacity Zunes (Zune 4 and Zune 8 ) offer a bite-size version of their full-size, 80GB sibling. While the full-size Zune is a better value, the solid-state flash memory used in the 4GB and 8GB versions make them better suited for physically active (or clumsy) users.”
  • Digitaltrends Reviewed Microsoft Zune 8GB and gave out ”The new 8GB Zune Red is a sexy little MP3 player - certainly better than many competitive players on the market. The screen is very nice (a little small) and has great color rendering and smooth action. The FM radio is a sweet feature, especially for those of us who easily tire of our private music collection. The 8GB Zune also plays video quite well, making it a decent player for watching tiny videos on the go. The fact that it looks strikingly similar to the just-retired 2nd Generation Apple iPod nano is bound to be a matter of derision from many Apple fans. The wireless sync feature is awesome and finally, the sound quality of the Zune is pretty darn impressive.”
  • PCworld Reviewed Microsoft Zune 8GB and gave out ”With wireless syncing, FM radio, and full video support, the 8GB Zune has a lot going for it. Unfortunately, unless you really want wireless syncing, it’s not the best choice. If you’re looking for lots of storage, the Sansa View has the Zune beat. If you’d prefer a compact player, the new iPod Nanos are much smaller.”
