So i got my Zen, and for a few months I always wanted a case! So i looked on amazon, of course, the best shop evar, and looked for the cheapest, and most rated stars.It had 5 stars til that guy did 3...jeese.I must say that this case is perfect.First of all, it seems EASIER to press buttons, second, the zen isnt hard to get in the case , he probebly had a 60 GB whitch i think is a bit bigger than a 30.I think the kickstand is cool but i wish there was a way to take it of, for a more simple look from the back,but the case over all is very good and when i opened the package and put it on i already loved it.It has a nice smooth texture if you thought it might me rough.I also like how it had a hole for the microphone as i thought that a 3rd party company might forget to make that hole! Everything is very easy to acces , eccept that the turn on button take a bit more time to get your finger on you have to position it more than just slide it how you usually do, but this is not a problem.

In all for the price, and revews you see here its obveous this case is a reat deal! I got mine for 5 dollars.If you click on "# other items" or somethng like that.Im not sure but go to the page where is shows all the sellers and there is a 5 dollar one new.If they are out of stock get one for 10 from amazon.

Thankyou WirlessGalaxy! (My store of purchase)

This is a great case and I'd highly recommend the investment, but it does not fit the 60GB model, only the 30GB model. The 60GB is about 1/8" thicker.

The skin is pretty cool, the plastic screen protector does not stay on, perhaps because the skin is too tight for the ZEN. It is so tight, in fact, it depresses the buttons. It's not worth buying despite the price, I would venture elsewhere.

This case is perfect fit for the Creative Zen Vision M. You can use all the inputs (5) without removing from the case. The price was right too.

Needed a case for my creative zen vision M (30 gig). This case does the trick. The belt strap is cheap but it didn't show any sign of breaking so far. BE WARNED that the plastic window does more harm than good. The silicon case is tight on my Zen, but it's still a bit floating inside and whenever it moves with the plastic screen, It scratches the MP3 player's screen rather deeply. I RECOMMEND THE CASE BUT DO NOT PUT THE PLASTIC WINDOW FOR THE SAKE OF KEEPING YOUR SCREEN SCRATCH FREE.

The case is pretty to look at and it does its job when it comes to protecting your device from wear and tear, but at a price (or at least an inconvenience).

First, getting the case onto the device is like slipping on a tight, wet scuba suit on your dry body...takes a lot of squeezing, pushing, and maneuvering before you can get it to fit properly, and you have to remove the plastic screen cover before you do this (mine came with no instructions, by the way, making it especially challenging).

Secondly, once the case was on, controlling the buttons was for some reason much more difficult and unreliable than it had been prior to putting it on. I had to press harder, or press repeatedly for a button to respond, and adjusting the volume using the scroll pad in the center became very difficult for some reason.

Lastly, if you use a Creative Zen Docking station, you have to remove the case beforehand so it will fit in the cradle. Of course this applies to most every case made for the player, but most cases aren't such an ordeal to take off and put back on as this one is, making it a cumbersome process anytime you feel like syncing or charging the device with the docking station. You can of course work around this problem by using one of many other methods of charging and syncing the device (e.g. direct USB-to-player connector/charger), and this is why I've decided to keep it and perhaps use it in the future. It does have a nice thin metal "kickstand" that lets you prop up the player like a photo frame, which is a nice touch, and so far it's been sturdy when kept in that position.

I bought another case that I recommend for its durable hard outer shell, style, ability to protect the device (especially the screen), ease of removing the device for users of the docking station, and one that gives you full unfettered access to the buttons and scroll wheel (because they're not obstructed or covered by the case). It's the "Rhino Skin Creative HardCase" Creative Zen Vision M Aluminum Hardcase - Hard case for digital player - aluminum, polycarbonate - polished aluminum that fits the Creative Zen Vision: M player, which also has a lanyard you can attach to wear around your neck and has an aluminum backing which is very sturdy and solid. The front is clear polycarbonate, which doesn't affect the picture quality but is reassuringly thick and durable and easy to remove for when I want to plug the device into my docking station. The case also has an attachment you can use to hook it into a belt clip, which locks it in snugly until you push a button to release it. The silicone case came with some sort of white attachment, but I can't figure out how in the world it attaches to the case, a further problem with not having any instructions included with the device.

Bottom line: I got both, but currently I'm using the Rhino Skin case because I find it more user-friendly. Take a look at both before you decide which to buy.

This is just what I was looking for to protect the Zen. Easy to put on and the kickstand is great. So simple yet solves two problems. This is a great deal.

I bought this case for my vision m 30gb because I didn't want it to get scratched up. First of all it's a pretty nice case the only problem is, the plastic cover that protects the screen rubs against the screen and scratches it up. Now I have to figure out how to get rid of all the scratches. I don't believe it's just this case I think it's all the silicone cases that have the plastic cover. Now I'm looking into buying a plastic case.

I have had my Creative Zen for 4 months now and I love it. If you hate Itunes and Ipod restrictions you will love this mp3/video player. You can drop and drag files, song, and movies at will. If I had to list a negative it would a lack of accessories. Get the Creative Zen.
