Microsoft - Zune (4GB) Media Player Review Summary

If you’re looking for an alternative to the Apple iPod, then you might consider the Microsoft Zune media player. The 4GB Zune is Microsoft's solution to competing with the iPod Nano. Zune's have a larger screen than an iPod that owners love - especially those who are fond of watching videos and movies or showing off their pictures. The size of the 4GB Zune makes it "very awkward" to share pictures or watch videos. Also, the storage space "fills up very quickly." People who own this product love it but say it might be a better investment to buy a larger model. Read more Zune reviews and compare them to the other MP3 Players too.

I wanted an MP3 player for a long time my sister had a Zune and she loves it she lives thousands of miles away so I never got the chance to "play around with it" My mom computer illiterate sent me her IPOD to put music on it so I got to play around with that it was OK but wasn't something i felt i NEEDED....

Recently I wanted to purchase a mp3 player for my girlfriend and having been a Zune owner for more than 2 years I instantly thought of the Zune. While the 4GB zune feels great and has all the features of my 30GB Zune it just has left something to be desired. The size of the 4GB Zune has been a dissapointment....

Better than an iPod, except for the lack of use on other OSs.

The Zune 4GB is Microsoft's answer to the iPod Nano. Their challenge ended unsuccessfully, due to the iPod's popularity.

The Zune is actually a much better Mp3 player than the iPod Nano, in my Opinion.

The zune comes with a pair of earbuds, with 3 pairs of different colored grips for them; The earbuds do not hurt my ears, unlike the ones grouped with their iPod counterpart.

The thing that really brings my thoughts about the zune player down is that it doesn't hold a charge very well. Also, it doesn't give much warning before the charge is gone. Other than that it serves its purpose.
