This little case is very nice. I liked the ring that would allow me to hook the device to a belt, etc. However, I bought it to fit my Creative Zen x-fi and the case was too small. I was disappointed because it was just what I had been looking for. It seems the manufacturer has not made the same kind of case to fit the x-fi. Nice product for Creative Zen, but TOO SMALL FOR X-FI.

A good, solid case. It is a little difficult to put on at first, but gets easier every time you do it. One of the cons, already mentioned, is that the screen on the case scratches easily. I guess scratches on a $20 case are better than a $200 player. Also as already mentioned, the little "leather" strip is a bit fragile looking, but hasn't failed on me yet. I do not have the oil spot on the screen, and the details and colors are transmitter accurately. Some cons I haven't seen are that the case covers the SD slot and the microphone, so you have to remove the case to get at either of these functions. I unwisely opened the case in the presence of sawdust and could not get all of it off of the inside of the case. Nevertheless, it handled a four foot drop onto a concrete floor (accident) perfectly without harm.

I love this case, it's given me great protection for the player and saved it from getting trashed.
The clip that comes with it needs some work though, the round shape makes it hard to clip on to anything, and when it's not clipped on to anything, the rivets on the clip can scratch the case.
Other than that it's a great option for anyone who's hard on their player, I don't feel bad about tossing the player into my backpack and messing up the screen.

I find this case very useful because it protects very well my zen and besides I can hang it on my belt.

This case is virtually indestructible. I've sat on it, stepped on it and dropped it, and all it has to show for it is a few scratches.

There's just one thing though - this case turns a sexy player into something for more reminiscent of the old chunky Creative bricks. It's just thick enough to make the Zen feel heavy and clunky in your pocket, which is a shame because by itself the Zen is so nice and thin. So if you need the protection, then definitely go for the case, but if you're someone who's going to just use it on the subway and are pretty careful, go without.
