ZVUE 250 2 GB Video MP3 Player (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got 2 of these. One for my husbad that travels and another for the home. I can convert a whole DVD in 2 steps (mpeg2 then dvix) the final file is around 89-129MB depending on the length of the movie. Watch the width size or file may not play. 160-144 pixles is great. 15 fps gets the size smaller. Dr Divx is an older program but works awsome.

Picture clarity on screen great, sound good, battery life up to 2 movies. So far on a 2 gig card ( I got $18.00 new egg) I stored 8 movies , variety of music , and about 120 pictures. Be sure and reduce to size of pictures or it could take up to five seconds for the zvue to adjust it for you to fit. The pictures can play in a slidshow mode. Great settings.

Customer support Awsome. They answer right away at night WOW. Had trouble updating firmware and player froze (my fault). I paniced cause I wanted to give it at Christmas Day, which was 2 days away, and support one day aired me a 128MB card that had the new firmware upgrade and problemed solved. I was able to wrap and give ready with movies working.

My only complaint is their Zapp software doesn't convert the files small enough. A movie with their soft ware is 500-600MB. So Be advised you'll have to use 3rd party software and again watch the pixle width so it will play properly. Drag and drop your converted files via USB into the formated card in it's proper file. I only use Zapp software to format the SD card. If you use their software to transfer files it will want to reconvert it and then size is increaded. If you are not tech savey then software will work fine just be sure to get a 4Gig card.

ZVUE Spirit 1 GB MP3 Player--Preloaded with 15 Patriotic Songs (Red, White, and Blue) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Let me start by saying i picked this thing for 10 bucks on a clearance sale, but i would gladly pay the 35 bucks here for it.

When i first started using it i was angry that the sound quality was so low, then i realized that the real problem was i hated the preloaded music. Once i stuck my own music on it, it sounded great, the headphones aren't bad either, certainly comparable to stock iPod 'phones.

By the way, the best feature of this entire device is that there is NO included software, the thing reads on your computer like a flash drive, you simply drag the music you want over to the player. you can even leave it in folders, which will show up on the player, if you want to keep it organized.

I'm not one to buy American flag anything, but to be sure, no one will mistake my MP3 player for theirs. I get alot of comments about it at the gym.

Also i should note, its not only small, its increadably light, it weighs less than my plastic lighter and is smaller than my iPod Nano.

The little speaker built in is mostly for kicks, you wont be listening to music on it, but its a cute feature.

In fact, thats what this whole device is, just a ton of cute features. Even the case it came in looks amazing.

long live the Zvue!
