Microsoft Zune HD Review

[MrJustinbieberbello]

pos ipod is better

[kirbonsio]

Apple may take extremely care on apps, looking, and some other stuff, but it don't mind the most important part on an mp3 player:.......SOUND QUALITY!!

[sensationaluba]

sigh, what ever happened to the significance of the usage of an mp3? the original intention was for music, and not majorly all about the apps. apps, apps, apps! why!

[primalnations]

u have herpes

[DeseanJacksonAve10]

sounds like somebody is a little biased................

[mistermarijn]

buy Creative..

[IgnoredComment]

I dream of the days Nokia say bye to Symbian, Microsoft Phone with a proper SDK, and Justin Bieber are banned from radios

[xrxoxbxexrxt166]

i had a zune right wen it came out but then lost in in like 2 months n yea its a good mp3, not much apps, and a browser that gets the job done.. but still i prefer an ipod

[Netugi]

I'm definitely going for a Zune. I don't care about apps; longer battery life, better graphics quality, it wins right then.

[TACOSDUDE123]

man u ever heard of proactive??

[mamamada]

I thought this was a parody at first!

[DeathToTheseWalls]

If you care about apps -- iPod Touch

If you do not -- Zune HD, without hesitation

[PinedaBoy97]

@DeathToTheseWalls hahahahahahhaha search up without hesitation on youtube and look at the video

[Harrypotterpuppetpro]

@DeathToTheseWalls Meh, not really, Zune has shit screen res, and bad web browser... I'd take an iPod, I am curious about sound quality though, CNET said the third gen iPod touch had equal sound quality or better than the Zune. I've been assured that this is not the case by many Zune fans. I'm curious what about the music is "better" better EQ options... or just all around sharper and more detail?

[Justin10473]

8 apps vs 300 000.

I wonder which one I should buy...

[Netugi]

@Justin10473 It depends on if you care about apps or not. I don't (as seen in my other comment), so I'm going for a Zune.

[iZm1R]

man get an haircut

[stoopkid80]

8 apps? Fail.

[ahmedsarim]

i like his name...reminds of how little kaiba used to call his small brother "mokey"...

[Actionboy619]

lmfao this doesn't have shit on the ipod

[masik7290]

WTF THERES A MP3 WAR ALSO? THIS SHIT IS JUST GETTING STUPID

[kx519]

To go back in the menu you tap the top of the screen.

[ShinySoulSilver]

Just buy an iPod like THE REST OF THE FUCKING WORLD!

[dragonforce0404]

@ShinySoulSilver

why? so i can be a fucking asshole like you? I dont think so!

[austinro8]

apple can kiss microsofts ass....

[whatzituya55]

you're a dumbass!

[hkdapplefan]

ok you can play videos on a tv with an iPod you just need an adapter. the zune just plainly sucks.

[zs7iey]

@hkdapplefan

the fuckin iPod comes out a some fucked 576p resolution that no one uses and looks all crippled, while the Zune HD comes out in a REAL HD resolution instead of the resolution of a goddamn wristwatch!

[hkdapplefan]

oh man you're a youtube tough guy!!!! I'm so scared!!! seriously its a stupid mp3 player, and personally i think that iPod and Zune both kinda suck but i would rather use an iPod any day because they are more popular and have a better user interface!

[zs7iey]

@hkdapplefan

wow you're stupid...

first off the term is "internet tough guy", second, you use that term when someone threatens to impose physical harm upon you. but i didn't expect you to know that or anything for that matter, you being an (cr)apple fan and all. o yeah and one more the iPod user interface is just a big gay list at least the Zune HD's is creative and i can breeze through it with phenomenal ease instead of scrolling through 9000 song titles

[hkdapplefan]

LOL People like you make me laugh. because its a freaking piece of technology and its my God Given right to be able to use it. And why are you being so defensive over this? its an MP3 player. Calm down buddy. You're getting a bit too excited here.

[kx519]

@hkdapplefan "they are more populat" = Coolkid status. "have a better user interface." = Absolute bullshit.

[hkdapplefan]

@kx519 dude its a piece of technology. its your personal choice so calm the hell down. and you're entitled to your opinion as much as i am entitled to mine. so once again calm down.

[kx519]

@hkdapplefan i was calm, im just sayin'. Basing what you buy on how popular it is is one of the most annoying things for me. i hate when people do that.

[kx519]

@hkdapplefan But i will give the iPod props on all the apps.

[sidjip]

you can make apps for the zune hd with XNA.

[Vanamutt]

Dammit, why does nobody care about the sound quality anymore? Its all about the video, and freaking games.

[Balderonicycold2]

your a dumbass

[zs7iey]

@Vanamutt

i care about sound.

all my music is either FLAC or WMA lossless.

and it's all on my Zune HD. well except the FLAC...

[PowerSprinter]

@zs7iey samsung p3 carries all of those formats, maybe you should consider that.  it supposedly has great sound quality too

[ashtonA69]

This video is wrong. Apps can be made for the Zune HD through XNA.

[BlazingCheerio]

yeah there is already a website offering free zune apps/ games.

[YottabyteComputers]

What is the website called. I would like to see it.

[asianoutcast87]

improve the whole browser. add some apps. and then good to go! but seriously, this should have been released as a demo product and had limited production. then they couldve sold the real thing updated and improved in december. T_T hopefully they do release an improved one in december but thtll upset ppl that already bought it. yes, i want a volume button

[Damagecamrocks]

Ipod touch for the win! fuck microsoft :)

[lilice1907]

fuck you apple fan boy

[fannyslapper33]

@lilice1907 How is he an apple fanboy?

[lilice1907]

@fannyslapper33 this was one year ago i honestly can not remember

[WakeTheFugUpAmerica]

@lilice1907 What are you talking about he pretty much said this was better than the iPod Touch

And I am a Microsoft fan (I Own a couple of Mac products)

I love Zune (especially the software), but this guy is right Apple's marketplace, and developer tools is what dominates the market right now, and until Microsoft can understand that the Zune will remain defeated

[lilice1907]

@WakeTheFugUpAmerica never underestimate the udnerdog besides it's pointless to even continue this argument microsoft is pretty much phasing out the zune hardware line and moving on to using it as an added feature to it's windows phone line i still do think that the zune is superios to the ipod but it's just pointless now and besides when it comes to consumer products it's all about preference some will like apple others microsoft it's just the way it should be competition and preference

[WakeTheFugUpAmerica]

@lilice1907 Yeah I know, because I own a Windows Phone, and I also own an iPad2

They both have their pro's, and cons, and like I said this guy is giving the Zune a fair, and honest review, and you resort to being vulgar. An "Apple Fan Boy" would be much less forgiving of the Zune in a review,

[lilice1907]

@WakeTheFugUpAmerica where is my original comment? i don't even see it

[Chronos014]

Now show me it's Internet browser and streaming capabilities. Then we'll talk.

[lilice1907]

there are a lot of videos of the internet on yourtube ipod touch vs zunehd just look it up :)

[zs7iey]

@Chronos014

then show me the iPod's video output, HD radio, wireless computer sync, and software that doesn't fuck your whole collection when it finds a drm issue.

the we'll talk

[chrisaa94]

how on earth is this microsofts take on the shuffle? Check the info..

[vieTTastic]

the ipod touch is better in all categories except screen, battery life and PERHAPS music quality...in MY opinion samsung and sony go first in music quality

[jnrolf]

ZuneHD wins hands down!

[jcdietel]

ZUNE HD ROCKS THE HOUSE

[mbrusco103]

looks nice but there no speakers on the outside and i would have to switch to zune software i wish i worked with itunes

[lilice1907]

in my opinion external speakers lessen sound quality and as for the itunes thing i have to ask you.. are you serious? why in the hell would it work with it's rival? the new zune software is bad ass

[mbrusco103]

im just saying that i would have to get another program on top of itunes becuase i have an iphone already so that would be one more program taking up space on my computer and speakers on the outside of my iphone sound great at full volume its good for playing music when ur friends are around you and you want them to listen to a song

[lilice1907]

well i like a lot of loud music lol i just think an external speaker would distort it and the zune software isn't that big really i'm sure you'll love it once it's actually on there^^ trust me

[zs7iey]

@mbrusco103

just buy a new HDD or get an external drive.

it's not that hard

[PsychoDevon]

take on the ipod shuffle? you mean ipod touch in the video description.

[otterboxiphone]

Ugly design. I think MS engineers suck balls. For instance, their Windows mobile also sucks.

[ZamatoElite]

Amen brotha.

[sNpeR1080]

love the design and the interface. so much better than that shiny aluminum back that gets scratched to hell and back and looks like shit after owning it for 3 days.

[Actionboy619]

@sNpeR1080 Than maybe you should have bought a cover for it...

[zs7iey]

@otterboxiphone

what a coincidence! the same can be said about you tooo!

[miritkenny]

iPod Touch Sucks

Zune HD Rocks in my House

[miritkenny]

Ok... This is my opinion. You guys could debated all day but I like what I see. Great thx
