  • Abstract:  Microsoft has obviously seen the unprecedented success of Apples iPod (this type of product is abbreviated as PMP for Portable Music Player, or DAP, for Digital Audio Player) and entered the market with the Zune 30 GB MP3 player last year. It had a l...

  • Better controls; wireless autosync; Zune Marketplace greatly improved.
  • Still tied to Zune Marketplace; wireless sharing still mostly useless

  • qualité sonore, autonomie, qualité et taille de l’écran, tuner FM, simple d’emploi, fonction Wi-Fi pour s’échanger de la musique et des photos.
  • cran non tactile, pas d’égaliseur, fourni sans chargeur secteur.
  • certes, le Zune ne fait pas le poids face à l’iPod Touch. Il ne fait pas tablette Wi-Fi, son écran est moins large et non tactile, l’interface utilisateur moins réussie. Il n’en demeure pas moins un juke-box performant, simple à contrôle...

  • Abstract:  Introduction Zune 80 is one of Microsoft’s second generation portable video and audio players; also referred to as “Zune 2.” I have been really excited about Zune 2 because of the numerous articles online that praised it, pointing out t...

  • Elegant user interface; FM tuner; wireless-sync capability; podcast support; nice screen; good audio quality; easy-to-use software
  • 80GB Zune costs just $50 more; tricky center button; cant download songs over Wi-Fi; no Audible audio-book or WMA DRM9 support; Zune Marketplace lacks movie/TV downloads
  • Microsofts flash-memory-based Zune player offers unique features in a sleek package for the Windows-loving crowd, but its still no iPod. ...

  • Slick UI design, Intuitive “squircle” controls, Excellent build quality, Lightweight, Touch controls, Large legible type on menu, Great sound quality, Great quality earphones, FM Radio function, Wireless connectivity
  • Looks like an iPod nano, Spotty software setup, Windows ONLY support, No WiFi web browsing, Small screen for video and pictures, No widescreen
  • I have to admit, I really like the new smaller Zune. For once, Microsoft has delivered a product that’s as easy to use as it is good looking. And while it may be a bastardized ripoff of the iPod nano design, the Zune offers a much better user inte...

  • While Microsoft has made solid progress with the Zune, the device still isnt compellingly more attractive than its competitors. Its not out in the UK as yet, but at $149 for the 4GB version and $199 for the 8GB version, in the US its priced identic...

  • 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 M...
  • The Zune 4 and Zune 8 players are PC-only devices that require their own software and still dont support older WMA-DRM9 music files, nor does Zune Marketplace offer TV or movie downloads. The Zunes USB connection is proprietary, theres no Wi-Fi musi...
  • 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 physica...

  • The first Zune was something rushed to the market and it showed. The first generation Zune lacked anything outstanding; it really did not offer anything above what the competition was doing. The second time around I am seeing something a bit more im...
