CNET Asia Review

Excellent

8.3

out of 10

View score

The good: 3.2-inch glass LCD; user-friendly interface; exceptional navigation control; audio and video podcast support; superlative FM radio with RBDS information; wireless syncing and sharing; high-quality earphones; revamped Zune Marketplace PC software; Zune Pass subscription music support; good audio quality; built-in composite-video output.

The bad: PC-only device that requires its own software and still does not support older WMA-DRM9 music files; Zune Marketplace does not offer TV or movie downloads; USB connection is proprietary; no Wi-Fi music streaming; EQ feature has been removed.

The bottom line: The Zune has blossomed from an ugly duckling into a worthy iPod alternative.
