Rating: Summary: Broke after 4 months Review: The player was great for the first 4 months, then it just stopped working. It wouldn't play and my computer would no longer recognize it when connected by USB. I used it running with general workout wear and tear. The warranty is only 3 Months. I would not recommend it until the product becomes more reliable.
Rating: Summary: Small but very unreliable Review: Just like what the other people have posted. This product is very unrealiable. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Then it got to the point where you're unable to turn in off(I have to remove the batteries to power it off). And then one day it just stop playing. And the warranty just expired last month. There are other products out there; don't waste your money on this. I'm currently back to my old Compaq Ipaq; Still deciding whether I should get iRiver or Digitalway.
Rating: Summary: Awesome, but I always wear out my batteries! Review: This is THE answer for anyone tired of bigger CD players, or MP3 players. It comes w/ a necklace but I found that annoying. You can buy the armband as a better feature, but I find it fits nicely in my back pocket, or in my waitband while running, riding my bike, or going to the gym. In fact I use it so much, I always have to carry extra batteries, 'cause I run it too long! I wish they'd make a 256mb so I can pack in more songs!
Rating: Summary: Works for only a few months!! Review: It seems that most of the glowing reviews for this product are from people who have only had their Muvo's for a couple of weeks. I loved ours too - while it worked - but we also experienced the same thing I've recently read in these reviews. About 3 days after the 3 month warranty expired the thing just died. I emailed technical assistance and they guided me through the recovery process. It worked for another 3 months, and then - after pushing the pause button - wouldn't play again. We tried the same recovery exercise, emailed tech help again, and their final suggestion was that it must be defective & to send it back with $$$ to put towards 'repair or replacement'. I don't know about you, but when I've already spent $$$ only 6 months before, I'd rather not sink more money into a defective product, or a company that won't do the right thing. Bottom line - it's great at first, but spend your money for something that's great and lasts for a while!
Rating: Summary: So easy to use and tiny to boot! Review: After seeing this reviewed several times on TechTV, I purchased this mp3 player as my first one ever. It's extremely easy to use and figure out, even for beginners. The music transfers over quickly and you can use both MP3 & WMA formats. I love it's ability to hold files, photos and more as well. It never skips or freezes and it's small enough to fit in your palm. It uses a AAA battery so it doesn't weigh much at all. The only down side that I can see are the size of the ear buds (they are too big for my ears and fall out often) but those are easily replaced. You do have to hold down the play button for a few seconds to power it on and off, but I am pretty sure that feature was added so that it doesn't get turned on by accident (say, in your purse or pocket) and run down the batteries. All in all, I'm pretty happy with it and have had no problems.
Rating: Summary: Not bad Review: My first experience with MP3, and I can't say it's been the best. Download is a bit cumbersome, and the control keys are hard to get used to. Also, don't seem to get more than a couple of hours from the battery. I'm going to try another manufacturer.
Rating: Summary: Do NOT buy this! For many, it fails out of the box... Review: I received the MuVo 128 for Christmas. It worked great until just after the 90-day warranty expired. The power/play button locked up and would not power off. After pressing each of the buttons to try to unfreeze it, I finally had to resort to pulling the memory stick/player out of its battery case. After numerous emails to Creative's tech support and following their instructions, it still does not work. When I asked to escalate the trouble ticket, they chose to ignore me and closed the ticket. I replied to let them know how dissatisfied I was and that if someone didn't contact me by June 1, 2003 that I would begin contacting consumer watchdog reporters. No response. Currently, I preparing documentation and compiling negative customer reviews...to submit to a reporter who has contacted me. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME ON THIS PRODUCT! ...
Rating: Summary: Survived the laudry!!! Review: I have a love-hate relationship with this product. It has failed for me maybe twice but always worked again after reformatting the drive. Once it quit after I put some files into a folder instead of just putting it on the drive (I don't recommend doing that) and the other time it failed I dropped it from about 1.5 ft. Today I left it in my pants that I washed and I thought for sure it was ruined. AMAZINGLY it still works great. Great sound. Small enough to fit in the back of my mountain bike jersey when biking. Great design and ease of use. A little unreliable. Very pleased but not quite 5 stars.
Rating: Summary: Don't bother to read specifications..it's not correct Review: Woow, so out of specification. Nothing is right about this product. Yes, the sound quality is good but ony when the battery is full, otherwise you usually get static noise nothing else. THe only advantage of it is being small and ability to be used as a usb drive. I'd only recomend you to think twice, nope ten times buying before this product, it smells trouble it is trouble. A good example of a bad product causing a company it's brand name..no more creative for me.
Rating: Summary: Not bad not good..but I wouldn't buy it if i had known Review: Sound Quality: Really awesome until it stops working for no apparent reason. Also if the batteries are not new, sometimes it just produces gibberish sounds whenever it wants. Design : Not bad, but no lcd, no id3 tags, nothing visual Reliability: not reliable at all..i was very impressed with it but after 3 weeks it just started to produce some scratchy sounds during wma playback. MP3 playback is better. Cost: A little expensive compared to rivals. Overall: There are better alternatives....just stay away for safety. But if you are going to take a risk, it really has an awesome sound quality.
