3 out of 5 stars A Neat Product To Carry Your Zen Stone.   April 3, 2008
A good quality product. It has an elastic band which can be adjusted to larger size arms. The neoprene skin protects the player from being scratched. The arm band allows a user to carry their Zen Stone MP3 player comfortably while doing other tasks. Since the Zen Stone does not have a clip attached like most other MP3 players. The only drawback to this product, is that you cannot see the flashing power light on your Zen Stone to tell you if the player is on or off. Also, you cannot tell how much battery life you have left because you cannot see the flashing power light when this product is used.

3 out of 5 stars A decent tiny MP3 player   August 19, 2007
 15 out of 21 found this review helpful

I've had numerous MP3 players, most of which I've used for running. I tried this one out because I wanted a small MP3 player (for exercising) with large buttons (so I can change volume/tracks without stopping or slowing down to look at the device).

PROS:
-Small, cute
-PLUG & PLAY:just drag and drop music onto the MP3 player. No software (like iTunes) required to use it.
-Rechargeable battery

CONS:
-NO CLIP: The optional silicone "skin" has a clip, but it's kind of weak and has a tendency to slide out of the silicone skin pocket and lose the player. Many times I've been running and had the player fly off into the bushes only to find the clip still attached to my waistband. I never had this problem with the Samsung or the iPod shuffle.
-NOT WATER RESISTANT: This is probably the worst aspect of this player. When this device is exposed to rainwater or sweat, the buttons short-out (i.e. one of the tuning buttons gets stuck in forward/reverse) until the player dries off. If I'm running in 90+ degree heat, I can expect about 15 minutes before the player malfunctions due to humidity/sweat exposure. Ironically, this problem is worse when the silicone skin is on the player (I say ironic because the skin is supposed to protect the device from moisture).
-NO SCREEN: not really a big deal for me, but some people like seeing how much battery is left, etc.
-BATTERY LIFE: I expected this to last longer on a single charge, but the longest I usually get is roughly 7 total hours of playtime before I have to recharge. Other small MP3 players I've had (like a Samsung, which had a screen, too) have lasted up to 14 hours worth of time.

COMPARED TO OTHER SMALL PLAYERS:

iPod shuffle- the Zen Stone is slightly larger, approximately same weight, worse clip. Zen Stone is MUCH easier to load with music. I prefer the Zen Stone

Mobiblu- Zen stone is easier to attach to your body, easier to use buttons without looking. Mobiblu is probably a better player, but not as easy to exercise with.

SAMSUNG clip on player- Samsung has a built-in clip, a screen, and can tolerate plenty of moisture. Although I've been trying to find a better player, this one is probably the best I've had.
SAMSUNG clip on MP3 player- easier buttons

This armband is so comfortable, adjustable, and hardly noticeable since it's only an inch wide. I have a different take on the opaque skin covering the blinking light. I don't want to see a blinking light when I'm doing my yoga or be distracted during my workout. I bought the Zen Stone because I didn't want a screen. I can figure out when I need to recharge since I only use it a few hours each day. For me, no bells, whistles, or lights are just fine.
