jacobhuffesq says "Upgraded from the 80 and love it." about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

I was a huge supporter of the Microsoft ZUNE from the get go. I am not an Apple fan and was glad to see Microsoft come out with an MP3 player. When my battery died in my 80 Gigabyte Zune, I went on out and bought the 120 Gigabyte Zune. This had much more memory but that was just the start. I love the new clicker on the front. You can slide to make it go up and down and all around. It is thinner which I like too. I hook it up to my XBOX 360 (very easy to do) to watch videos that I have saved and listen to music while I play games. The premium headphones that came with the Zune are so good. They are in ear buds but the tube kind. They have a cloth covered wire like a 60s guitar cable. The updates for it are really good too. I enjoy the games that they add very much. I also like that it is compatable to audible.com, an audio book website. I listened to the TWILIGHT SAGA on it while I drove to work. Who am I kidding, I also listened AT work.

dishgirl1010 says "Ipod owners will ENVY you" about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

I own a 120GB Zune although my first mp3 player was a Ipod I have never looked back. The screen on the Zune is larger and provides a panorama view, it holds so much and the media is di verse. From video and podcast to pictures and games not to mention music and audio books it seems to do it all. The only thing I would like Microsoft to fix is the amount of music selections they have for some artist. You are not able to download but can sample some music.? This maybe because of the recording industry, some of them don't like the Social feature. You can share songs with other Zune users, now the songs will only play 5 times and then when you sync your Zune you will be allowed to purchase the song. I would think that this would help artist sale there music, if its good!

awesomechick says "Microsoft-Zune (120GB) WOW!!" about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

I received my Microsoft Zune (120GB) a few months ago as a gift for my birthday. OMG, am I impressed! The obvious plus is all of the memory. 120GB!!!!! You have to agree, that is ALOT of memory! I have at least 20 full movies and roughly 2,000 songs on mine so far, and it's barely put a dent on the memory meter. I HAVE had a few problems with it, but they were minor, which mostly consisted of problems playing some television episodes on it that I had dowloaded for free off of the internet. Other than that, the screen quality is spectacular and the sound quality is great as well. I work 12-hour shifts at my job, and I listen to songs off of my Zune the entire day, and the battery barely goes down halfway! I do recommend spending a couple of extra dollars on getting yourself an LCD screen cover (you can't belive how many fingerprints just "magically" appear on the screen) and a silicone case (in case you're like me and are prone to dropping things). Thanks for reading my review!

todlermom says "Zune is the best music & movie player by far!" about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

My son had the 80gb Zune before he got this one and we were sooooo impressed with it that we decided to get him the 120gb Zune. He loves it! He has downloaded a ton of videos, movies, songs, anything he could ever want and he still has tons of storage left. It took us awhile to figure out how to convert some files but after doing an internet search we quickly figured it out! We've found that Windows Movie Maker is the best way to convert the movies so that they can be downloaded to his Zune. We also bought him a docking station so that he can recharge it easily. Make sure you get a car charger because if you use it half as much as my son does, you'll want to easily be able to recharge it while on the road. You can also download games to play on the Zune..you'll have to pay for the games but they are available. We've not used the Zune Marketplace often as we have our own music subscription through another provider. The Zune 20gb is expensive, but it will hold up over time...

Zune 120GB

I got my first Zune (30GB) about 2 years ago and had a big problem...not enough space! Luckily, I recenlty acquired a Zune 120. First of all, the firmware is the same for all the Zune versions which thankfully meant I didn't have to unistall or move music files.

The screen is also bigger which is great for watching movies or podcasts. The device is thinner too which when you're using the armband at the gym makes a difference. But my main attraction to the Zune is the sound quality. It's awesome! Ialso decided to forgo the included earbuds and use my Bose in-ear headphones for the best listening experience.

The Zune also has some fun features such as FM radio (again can be beneficial in the gym) and the capability of sending songs to other Zune users within a 30 foot radius). Also if you like games, Zune added 5 games including Hexic, Sudoku and Space Battle (of which I am hopelessly addicted).

I love this device and wouldn't trade it for anything.

120GB Zune is your best choice, If you are a music lover like me. Watch videos, listen to your favorite music, update your library wirelessly, play one of the most interesting or famous games in the world such as Checkers, Hexic, Space Battle, Sudoku, Texas Hold'em , and many other games for free, Pictures, Social, Radio, Podcasts, Marketplace, and many others with a new, powerful 120GB Zune.

Measures just 0.5" thin and weighs 4.5 oz.; up 30 hours of music playback and 4 hours photo and video playback per charge; 3.2" LCD.

The most important of all is that you can find it at Sears electronics apartment.

I have bought 4 Zune players within 2 yrs. 120 GB Zune Player for my brother on Christmas, one 8 GB Zune player for my bestfriend's birthday, one for me 30 GB 2 Yrs. ago and finally one 80 GB Zune Player for my Girlfriend on Valentine's day, which I'll be her gift/present. Please, I beg u don't tell her.

rgarc90 says "WHAT ELSE IS NEXT AFTER THE ZUNE????" about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

rgarc90 — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 07:13:07 GMT

OK well truth be told I actually have a 80 GB ZUNE. I wont lie and say yes it cool its clear and I do like it, but there are flaws just not any other MP3 that there is out there on the market. The thing I really don't like about it is, lets say that you have music on your Itunes that you want to be able to put on you Zune, YOU CAN'T! You actually have to either buy the song, pay for the month pass, OR buy the CD its self and then add it to your Zune. and to do that you actually have to download its own program on to your computer or laptop. Another thing I'm really not a fan is, you know how you can buy gift cards for Rap Sody or Itunes or Window Media Player...You can't do that for the Zune. You are not able to buy any kinds of gift cards for the Zune the only thing you can do is buy either the song its self from there program song market( or album from there) or you can pay (what I believe is) $14.99 a month so that you can download songs non stop THE PROBLEM with that little monthly...

GrayWale says "This Item ROCKS!" about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

I recently received a Zune 120. This thing ROCKS. I love the menu! From music, videos, pictures and so much more...so much for such a little device. I wish I would have bought this item sooner. The screen color and clarity is out of this world..so much better than what I expected. Plus it stores more than my desk top computer!!! If you can believe that! This thing is a must for music lovers. It says I'm able to store over 40,000 songs and a ton of pictures. I love MY Zune!!!!...

MexicanJim says "The Microsoft Zune 120GB is better than you think." about Microsoft - Zune (120GB) Media Player

I only bought this Microsoft Zune 120GB MP3 Playerabout 4 weeks ago, I must admit that I was just as intimidated as I was excited. After all, I was moving from a 1GB SanDisk MP3 Player that I had been using for over a year to a giant black monster that called itself the Microsoft Zune 120GB MP3 Player. I couldn't even imagine what it could do, and Microsoft is of no help when you open the box because the only instructions that exist are to place a CD in your computer and how to plug in your Zune. Absolutely not a single word on what to do after that. I'm grateful for their faith in my knowledge of electronics, but a little hand book on the basics of what to do would have been nice.

The Microsoft Zune 120GB MP3Player software took quick control of my laptop and instantly recognized all the music stored inside. I decided to start off simple and download music from there. Mind you, a 1GB SanDisk takes about 30 to 45 seconds to download a song. The Zune ate an entire U2 CD in less than 15 seconds.......
