A solid piece of kit, despite its bugs. Apr 29, 2011
By Jack O'Neill
"Jack"
Let me begin with a bit of background.
A few months ago, I was in the market for a new portable media player. Considering the fact that I had less than zero interest in purchasing any kind of iDevice, I did a bit of research and eventually decided on the Zen Touch 2 Enhanced.
I placed my order back in March, and got it within a week or so. During that week, though, I read a number of horror stories about the device: that it constantly locked up, that there was no way to reset it if it locked up, that you wouldn't be able to use it without registering it with Creative Labs, that it was buggy as hell . . . you get the picture.
I fully expected that I'd be RMA'ing it within a week of getting it. Obviously, though, I haven't, and overall I'm actually pleased with it.
I freely admit that it has locked up on me a couple times - the first for reasons unknown while I was booting it up, and the second when I tried to run Fennec instead of using the built-in browser. Both were easily remedied with the help of a staple applied to the reset button hidden under the cover for the microSD slot (a button which, I might add, is easy to miss due to its location and size, a fact which may explain the rumors about not being able to reset the Zen Touch 2 - but I digress).
The GPS receiver is pretty accurate - it can get a lock on your position with very little error (1.5 meters to 3 meters, in my experience), and the sound quality of the device is very good. The camera is decent as well - though not quite as good as a dedicated digital camera, it's a hell of a lot better than most cell-phone cameras I've used - and despite being dropped a couple times, it still works just fine. Battery life with Wifi and Bluetooth both off is decent - I've had it use maybe 10% charge when playing two to three hours' worth of music - but using Wifi does put a rather heavy drain on the battery (45 minutes of Wifi use eats about 25-30% of the battery's charge, in my experience).
My only real problems are with the touchscreen, which seems to lag a bit from time to time (usually when I'm surfing the web using the device's Wifi capability), and the placement of the reset button.
Other than that though, it's a pretty solid piece of kit, and I'd recommend it.

Takes a beating! Feb 03, 2011
By Amanda Mostly use it for gym, morning jogs, bicycling, etc. I've dropped it so many times and it has never stopped working. Had an ipod, dropped it once, died. If you are looking for a player that keeps playing, this is it. Plus, it's super easy to use and stores videos. So I can put my workout videos on here too.

Creative ZEN Touch 2, Don't waste your time or money! Sep 24, 2011
By davekg99 Warning: Do not purchase the Creative ZEN Touch 2. This device is worse than the reviews describe, requires constant resets, freezes repeatedly, and locks up while charging - which stops charging process. Locks up while burning from a CD, and freezes before completely play a single song. A totally madding device! I purchased it for my daughter and by the time she was willing to complain about how horrible it is, I could no longer return it. Don't waste your time or money!

Love the idea! Jul 31, 2011
By Shawna Wright Our daughter wanted a "Touch" mp3 player, but Apple is outlawed in our house. (My husband is an IT mangager and will not allow iTunes on our personal computers.) We both own Android phones and love them, but don't want our 12-year-old to have a phone yet. So...this was the next best deal. This Android based mp3 player works great. There is some work-arounds we've had to do to get important components on it for her, but with our familiarity with Android we're able to do it easy enough. I found her a sleep timer app so it would turn off in the night. I also found her an app especially for listening to audio books. She loves being able to get to her email on the wifi. She can also read books via a Kindle app attached to my account. The cost was also much better than an ipod with the same attributes. The only trouble we have that we can't figure out right now is that once we upgraded the device using the file on the Creative website, her wmv files don't seem to work anymore. They play only the audio and not the video. They worked before the upgrade. However, I have contacted Creative and they helping us out. We are still in the process of finding a solution.

Poor performance Oct 11, 2011
By Luis I got the Zen Touch 2 with GPS. I only wanted a MP3 with radio, but only the GPS version has FM radio, and to be honest, an Android device was kind of appealing. I am not an intensive user. I like to hear the radio in the mornings and listen to podcasts during commute. 3 out of 5 times it get frozen and it is not possible to turn it off. So either you let the battery to run out or you look for a needle to reset it.Some other times it shut down itself while listening to the radio or music, and also it shows very frequently a message that the microSD card has been removed, and stops working. I did expect that a solid established brand as Creative would have a product thoroughly tested. It is my impression that the Android version is not fully compatible to the hardware of this gadget or I got a very defective product!... so you have been warned!
