Along with great performance, there are three things we want from a video player to take on a long journey: a unit that’s slick, small and stylish;a user interface that doesn’t require any head-scratching or manual-reading;a big-enough screen to comf...
Easy to use, good value for money, excellent music and movie playback...

Creative has made a great player of the Zen Vision W. While we love the widescreen LCD, its quick to drain the battery. But providing you dont venture too far from the mains socket, the Creative Zen Vision W is an excellent choice. David Price Lowes...

The Zen Vision W is a comprehensive hardware solution for portable video, but one that lacks a comprehensive software solution to back it up. If this device embraced open-source encoding and supported a wider variety of video codecs, it would be the vi...
Bright screen. Good viewing angle. Decent ergonomics.
Limited formats supported. Poor built-in speaker. Can?t record from TV.

Digging though old posts I came across a review I started but never finished dating back to 2006. The photos are even watermarked before we had a logo. The Zen Vision W was basically a larger version of the Zen Vision:M. They both had a great lookin...

When I was a kid the only entertainment we had on a long car journey was listening to story tapes on the car stereo, playing I spy and having fights with my brother on the back seat. How times have changed. In the past thirty years the possibilities for...
Creative's Zen Vision W is a capable machine, despite the flaws. The wide screen is bright and does a fine job of displaying movies. Audio performance is excellent too, and size-wise it really isn't that bad, though if I was being picky I'd have liked it...

While a torrent of Portable Media Players emerged pre Christmas Creative have kept their power dry until just after the January sales before giving us the Zen Vision W. The package arrived at the offices for review and we clearly had the newer Archos 6...

Creative has literally expanded its Zen Vision line with the new Zen Vision:W portable media player: the W stands for widescreen. Unfortunately, the player isnt particularly sleek, and its audio battery life is shorter than it should be for a device t...
Nice-looking 16:9 screen. Good video quality and format support. Powerful built-in speaker. Intuitive interface. Removable battery. Supports PlaysForSure and Audible. TV output at 720-by-480. Excellent viewing angle.
No kickstand. Short audio battery life. Body feels bulky. No DVR feature. No video playlists or sequential playback.
This is a solid product with lots of features, good audio/video quality and a decent price, but its bulk and somewhat disappointing battery life keep it from shining.
