Sleek, fairly durable design, Excellent OLED multitouch screen, Mostly very polished interface, Capable web browser, 720p playback; special TV interface with a dock, Good audio quality and battery life,
No serious app platform, Web browser is tangibly worse than Apple's, Odd priorities in music controls, No major overhaul to the Zune software.
Coming to the Zune HD, we were afraid that it would reflect the stereotype of a Microsoft 1.0 product: interesting and full of potential, but far too rough to be enjoyable. That was doubly true as Microsoft's poor reputation with Windows Mobile touchsc...
Gorgeous new UI, Responsive touchscreen, Zune Pass
Limited beyond music and video playback, Unclear roadmap for applications, No Mac compatibility
Perhaps the most compelling reason to buy a Zune HD right now isn't the gorgeous screen or forthcoming apps, HD radio, or slick design. Make no mistake about it -- this is a fine, fine device, and no one would fault you for buying one -- but it's not the ...
Abstract: After admiring the Zune HDs slim good looks, now weve installed its software and taken it for a spin. We loaded the $290 32GB media player with music, videos, pictures and podcasts, tested out its user interface along with the Zune 4.0 software, and ...

Best screen that's ever shipped on a portable media player. Sync software has excellent music discovery features. Zune Pass subscription lets you download as many tunes as you want. Industrial design finally approaches the lustworthy quality of an Apple p
Several years behind Apple when it comes to interface and app store. Music library still has some holes. No Macintosh software. Web browser is competent, but takes a while to render some pages. Onscreen keyboard for browser is horrid
Beautiful OLED display, Long battery life, HD radio & wireless syncing, Very clean and easytouse interface
Zune 4.0 software is not user friendly, Somewhat limited audio & picture file support, App Store in the Marketplace is practically empty, Expensive dock required for HD video output
Gorgeous multi-touch OLED screen. Intuitive user interface with sharp, good-looking graphics. Strong Web browser. Wireless music purchasing, downloading, and syncing. HD radio.
Limited audio codec support. HD files are displayed in standard-def on the player—an optional dock is needed to view HD files on an HDTV or a PC. Very slim pickings in the App section of the Zune Marketplace.
With a fantastic OLED touch screen, a top-notch Web browser, and a wireless music store, the Zune HD is the best PMP you can buy—that is, if you live outside the iTunes universe....
Abstract: The new Zune HD is coming this September: the latest in the Zune line-up that many have been gathering information about over the past months as Microsoft leaks images, specifications and tidbits to the public. This weekend, I was able to see the new Z...
Abstract: Competition is fierce no matter what business you’re in, but it’s extraordinarily competitive between Zune and iPod in the MP3 player market. There’s always pressure to make something better, smaller, more jam-packed with features, etc. This article ta...
