To all Zune owners i need to ask a question.

by tuteemunger - 1/4/08 11:07 PM

i just wanted to know if the Zune 80gb is actually as chunky as it looks. Also i wanted to know if it is awkward to hold, by that i mean is it to big and fat.

i appreciate all comments thank you.

Zune 80Gig (size)

Hey! Tuteemuger

The Zune looks chunkier in pictures than it really is; to me anyway.
I guess you could stack 7 quarters and get feel of the thickness and
as for the length it is just under 1 1/3 of a credit card and width
is about 1 1/6 of a card.

I have had mine since X-mas and I'm very happy with it. I don't fine it hard to hold or awkward. The large screen is a plus it looks great.

You could also go to you neighborhood Radio Shack and as them to let you hold one in your hand; the Sales person let hold one; at the time I was just looking thank goodness my wife got me mine

I this helps

i would go to Radioshack and feel it and hold it and stuff, but in Canada the Zune has not been released. so i cant find it anywhere besides the states.

thanks for the comparisons i now have somewhat of an idea of how big it is.

I own the 1st gen zune and toyed with the new one in a circuit city for a while. It was definitely pocketable - not chunky in any way. It fits nicely in the hand.

The zune 80 isnt that chunky, it looks somewhat like a rectangle but its actualy pretty sleek. Its not as sleek as the ipod but its not like a box.

The Zune 80 is a lot thinner than the oroginal but its the same as holding an Ipod in my opinion the new Zune Pad takes a little bit of time to get used to but its allright The screen is also .2 inches larger than than the originals.

It has sex appeal!

I think that the zune 80 is a sleek device! It is no to thick to where you feel like you are carrying around a brick. And it is not to thin to where if you drop it will break...unlike ipod's! Plus the zune 80 gb weighs 4.5 ounces and the ipod classic 80 gb weighs 4.9 ounces! So it weighs less!
