Sorry I Forgot to Mention 56K warning!
*sorry I'm currently having trouble resizing my photos and editing them. So I'll try to get them all back up*
So this isn’t really much of a review, more of a picture book with captions. Anyway there are a lot of reviews of the Vision: m out there so I thought I’d post some pictures and toss some thoughts along with them. So hopefully I will also be able to answer any questions about the vision: m. Also I have a tiny review on the BSE, best skins ever for the vision: m along with some pictures. So I bought my vision m from Amazon. The vision m is finally in my possession! The box of the vision m is nice and thick. Creative packaged the vision m very well with lots of foam to protect the player and accessories. So the First thing I did was saran-wrap my vision m. Wanted to keep the player as clean and free of dust. Saran-wrap actually worked pretty well. I was waiting for my BSE to arrive in the mail. The vision m sits nicely in your hand, the weight and size feels just right. Could be thinner, but hey nobody was complaining when we all had cd players.
So here’s the Skin for the vision: m, nicely cut out. Tips on applying the shield: Just read the directions and slap off the excess liquid so the skin is not dripping with Windex.
The shield came out great. If you can't get the flaps to stick down, wrap the player in paper then tape the vision :m like a mummy with tape. That really helped for me. One problem with BSE is that the cut-out for the buttons next to the scroll pad did not fit. The cut out was too big so I gave up and decided not to put it on. Overall, the cut-out and fitting wasn’t perfect, but I was satisfied. The Shield looks a lot better in person than from the pics. So how well does the vision :m protect? The visiom :m fell face first out of my pocket and onto the concert. When i checked it no scratches on the player or the shield. I tired scratching it with keys and coins. BSE holds up very well. 5 dollars for the BSE was well worth it.
applying the shield: tray of windex, card, and shield
The Screen is really vivid and fantastic. I also like how you can delete pictures directly from the player and set the brightness of the screen. The screen looks better in person than from the pictures. There really isnt any "jagged-ness" in pictures or movies. Video playback and vewing is all smooth.
Movies and Photos look great. Video plays smoothly. Video transfer is surprisingly quick, video converting is slow. One thing I like about the vision :m is you can stretch the movie to fit the whole screen. Fastforward or rewind is a pain, wish there was a quicker way like the scroll wheel on the ipod.
Overall I really like the vision :M. I spent about a month deciding between the ipod 5g or the vision :m. No regrets so far. I just hope the headphone jack doesnt screw up like on my old zen micro. I strongly recommend the vision: m to anyone.
