Summary: Very Compact, Lightweight, Easy to Use...
Review: After comparing several MP3 players in it's class I decided to go with the MUVO NX because it's perfect for working out in the gym and lightweight for running. I considered going with an I-Pod for the larger storage capabilities at first, however when
I found out that the included rechargeable battery will stop holding it's charge after a about 2 years of use it wasn't worth the money for me. The 256MB memory included in the NUVO MX stores a good amount of music so you won't run out of songs in the middle of a workout or on a 4-5 hour plane flight.

The Pro's:
- Lightweight, compact design.
- Plug and play USB connection.
- Easily drag and drop files directly onto the player.
- Good amount of storage for music.
- Decent battery life. (I suggest investing in some rechargable AAA batteries)

The Con's:
- I only have one negative comment about this product. After opening the package the earphones included were defective. One side was about 3 times a long as the other side and the sound wasn't the best. This is why i'm giving it a 4 Star rating instead of 5.

Summary: Great Gadget
Review: First thing first: this is a portable drive "that has a MP3 playback ability"

With that said, if you are looking for a MP3 Player, buy an actual MP3 player that is designed for that performance.

The unit has a USB port on it, so there aren't any undesired long plugs that needs to go around. However, since the unit package doesn't come with an USB extension, for desktop users that only have USB ports on the back of the computer might be inconvinient.

One review for this device suggested "the headphone uneven" issue. One side of the head phone is suppose to go behind your neck so that you don't have a headphone line go straight down the middle.

The sound issue is something that I can't understand either. I use this device on the streets of New York City, the busiest city in the world, and I didn't have any problem with the volume. I don't know how loud you might want it, but if you plug in more sophisticated headset, the sound quality will definitely improve.

Do not format this device. Then it will loose all MP3 playback capabilities. You can delete and drag-drop files anyway you want it, but you will need to use the program that Creative Labs provide, which is called "Initializer" to format the device.

It's a pain to use the program that they provide with, since I'm not familiar with it at all. This will force you to only listen to songs in alphabetical order OR random, in my case. So, that's a minus.

One definite plus. For many non-alphabat users, this unit will be great, since it's able to display East-Asian characters, such as Korean, Japanese, Chinese, etc. A lot of other units don't do that, but you will get that capability with this device.

Overall, I recommend. But I wanted a "all-in-one" device, which this device was perfect for. For music playing, storage, portability. Great buy.

Summary: Great little player
Review: I bought the Creative NOMAD MuVo NX about two weeks ago and I'm very happy with it so far. It was not too much money compared to other players and the quality seems to be extremely good. All you have to do is replace the not-so-good supplied earbuds.

Let me start with how easy it is to get music onto this MP3 player. It is extremely easy. It is recognised by Windows as a removable disk drive, so it adds itself into My Computer or Windows Explorer or whatever and you can copy and paste or drag and drop music on there in a snap.

The battery life is alright, but I'm not complaining since it only takes 1xAAA battery and lasts a good 10 hours.

The size is great! The first thing that occured to me was that the actually memory bit of the player (the bit that plays the songs) is smaller than the battery clip-on!

There is also upgradeable firmware, so your player can constantly be updated for new patches and fixes. I'm downloading an update righht now.

Another key thing for me was WMA support, since it's about half the size of an MP3 (even though I keep mine encoded at 80kbps for a medium between quality and being compact).

256MB is a great amount if you're not looking at a jukebox, I've still yet to fill it. I think it can take roughly 120songs in WMA and 60 in MP3.

Get thins player! The interface is friendly and very easy to use and read. The only downside I can think of right now is the fact that you cannot fast forward tracks, although it remembers where you were in the song as you switch it off.

Summary: It survived a Laundry Cycle
Review: I bought this MP3 Player looking for something light and with a good capacity hard drive. It's durable, stylish, and easy to use, and it still worked after I left it in my pocket and it went through a load of laundry! What more could u ask for??

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Fragile and bad sound
Review: I bought this player a week ago, when I opened the box I was suprised for all the stuffes that comes with it...software, belt, two colors battery bases, etc. I plugged it in my portable and copied some music. The sound was not good enough ( if you compare this with the RCA Lyra's one for instance ) , I tried by setting the equalizer but it did not make big difference. Some time later it started to sound worse, one channel was unavailabled because I could barely hear the singers in the song. I thought in replace it with a new one, but I asked for my money back instead. It's a really weak player, it seems more like a memory stick than a real MP3 player. I love music, and a like listen it very loud with my headphones or my car stereo, and this "thumb-drive" doesn't work for that.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WAY better than the competition!
Review: I first purchased the RIO sports mp3 player (the red one). Anyway, it was a piece of junk. I took it back and got this one! This thing is the best! the detachable portion that holds the battery is replaceable, which means if you drop it, most likely it will fall on the detachable battery until and leave your player in tact. I just can't say enough about this player,, in the 50 hours of use I have used it, I have not had one problem! It has suffered swet, drops and general abuse and has held up wonderfully!

Summary: Light-weight, stylish, versatile
Review: I have always wanted to have a MP3 player + USB Flash drive combo. Creative Muvo was a step in that direction, but it had its drawbacks: cheap plastiky look, max memory of 128MB, no LCD.
Then along came Muvo NX with all these issues fixed. One of the best things you'll like about this player is that it does not require any drivers on the Windows 2K/XP (maybe other versions also but I haven't checked). So you can practically work off any computer. Just drag and drop your MP3 or WMA into the player and you are all set...
It sounds great and is light-weight enough to put in your shirt pocket and not feel it. At 256MB storage capacity, I can simultaneously have sufficent number of songs on the player to last me a long trip as well as have a number of work-related documents to carry between workplace and home.

You will need to get a good headset, though. The earphones that come in the box are uncomfortable and slippery and would just not stay in the ears.

Summary: Great Product
Review: I have my MuVo NX 128MB for 6 weeks now and I can't fault it.

I find it strange that the 256MB version of this product gets 5 stars and this 128MB version gets 3. It's the same product with a different memory configuration.

I see one user , Emir complaining about the uneven length of the earphones. This is normal. The longer one is supposed to go behind your neck. I've seen this with Sony & Sennheiser earphones too.

I also see someone else complaining about the sound quality. This unit has a Signal To Noise Ration of 98dB. This is much hihger than any other MP3 player. If the music doesn't sound good then the chances are that it's your MP3 recording which is at fault.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Works great for me
Review: I love it. Small, lightweight, easy to use.

The headphones are terrible!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!!!
Review: I love this product. I searched for a long time for a small MP3 player I could take to the gym with me. I read a ton of reviews and decided to take a chance with this one. I purchased this item 4 months ago and no complaints at all. I run and workout 5 times a week for 1-2 hours. The muvo 128 is perfect for this kind of use. I never hear the same song, the arm band is very comfortable, and the batteries last. I recomend this product to everyone who is interested in a reliable MP3 player.
