The wide-eyed PVP from Creative
Comments:
The Creative Zen Vision W doesn't expand much upon the features of the original Vision, but the wide screen is a welcome addition.

Creative Zen Vision:W
Comments:
Review Verdict: This is a solid product with lots of features, good audio/video quality and a decent price, but its bulk and somewhat disappointing battery life keep it from shining.

Enough Vision- Zen Vision W Review
Comments:
Creative have started the new year by building an extension onto their Zen Vision to give us the Zenvision W or Wide Screen. Is this little more than a cut n shut job or has the Zen laid some new foundations?

Creative stretches out the display and adds a 'W' to its Zen Vision brand.

Comments:
Creative's Zen Vision W succeeds its Vision portable media player, gaining a W denoting its widescreen aspect. The epic 4.3in screen is fantastic, displaying both photos and video beautifully and in vivid detail.
Review Verdict: Creative has made a great player of the Zen Vision W. While we love the widescreen LCD, it's quick to drain the battery. But providing you don't venture too far from the mains socket, the Creative Zen Vision W is an excellent choice.
