hardwaresecrets‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Both the Zune hardware and the software are excellent. We loved the scratch-resistant glass-covered LCD, the Wi-Fi capabilities, the easy navigation and the friendly interface. All in all, the Zune is a fully capable music player with a wealth of unique and useful features.

The Zune has both strengths and weaknesses. While the overall tone reads negative, we must admit we like the hardware. Quite a lot actually. We like holding the Zune, we like the user interface, we like watching videos on it. We like the potential of the WiFi. We like the fact that it's not an iPod. There's also plenty that we don't like, but most of our greatest complaints don't directly affect our experience of walking down the street using the Zune (especially since the majority of our music isn't DRM'ed and we encoded all our favorite videos to the Zune easily.) Until Apple blows the Zune out of the water with the long rumored touch-screen iPod, the Zune is one of our favorite mp3 players on the market.

The Zune 120, with a unique focus on music discovery, is a fierce competitor to the iPod Classic. The Zune's substantial storage capacity combined with its Zune Pass music subscription makes it an ideal solution for restless music fans with large appetites.

Despite new features and a capacity upgrade, Zune needs a redesign to keep up with other flash players on the market.

Still the best hard drive-based portable media player on the market—the feature-barren iPod classic can't compete with the Zune's top-notch navigation and added wireless abilities.

The Zune offers a viable alternative to Apple's iPod, especially for those who spring for Zune Pass.

People wonder whether Microsoft's underdog will overtake Cupertino's reigning juggernaut this holiday season. To be honest, we wish it could, since we too are getting kind of sick of seeing the iPod on top. A one man show is only entertaining for so long. But this buying season if the question is iPod, we're afraid the answer sure isn't Zune.
