Zune turn around?

The zune may be coming alive. The new Halo zune model currently number one selling product out of all the Game Stop products. There were reports of at least one of the zunes on Game Stop site as being defective. Others just i pod fan boy smack talk who don't even have one. But for the most part people seem to be really excited and pleased with this product. Maybe in due time when you tell someone. Hey I got a zune they wont reply and say what is a zune?

Im glad theres a mp3 player challenging the ipod the ipod just lacks the features that I need. The ipod honestly does not even look all that great I regret buying mine.

AudioRage6190d ago (Edited 6190d ago )

was a very innovative concept, it jus seems the first firmware versions were terrible. I know many people where i live where very interested by it, but its not available in europe yet, also, unfortunately its quite restricted due to drm

Many people are sleeping on the Zune. So what if it's a little thicker than a video iPod--it's features more than make up for it; 2x Bigger screen, built-in Radio, Wi-Fi, etc.

People hate cause it's Microsoft but IMO it's a good product. Most of it's weaknesses can be worked out with firmware updates.

sonarus6190d ago

apple has the mp3 player market and they have grasped it firmly. There is absolutely nothing wrong with zune but msoft definetly have to come harder and more innovative than wifi and built in radio. Halo 3 is not going to push zune sales no where. the zune is going to fail it was a valliant effort but none the less. Unless you come up with some technology that wirelessly beams music into ur head or sumthin cool that the ppl will eat up. and at the right price? then we'll be talkin

BIadestarX6190d ago

To succeed Zune does not have to beat Ipod. There are many people out there that are smarter than those that buy a product simply because the company that makes it. There are plenty of MP3 players selling a lot less units than the Ipod and they have a share in the market and an ok installbase to make them worth the investment. I think the Zune is already a success for the simple fact (as you mentioned "they have grasped it firmly")... and they are selling better than everyone expected. If microsoft continue to add features, firmware updates and new services... the zune installbase can only grow... and microsoft has the advantage of being able to use other areas (xbox live, Halo3) to push other products (Zune).

Or did you just not read the article?

Here is your quote:

"Halo 3 is not going to push zune sales no where"

Now here is a quote from the article:

"The new Halo zune model currently number one selling product out of all the Game Stop products."

I was going to buy one last month, but decided to wait for the H3 edition, so yes it will sell units.

SF49er4086190d ago

Why do people hate so much on the zune. Its way better then the ipod video in every way. Why wouldnt u want a bigger screen with widescreen viewing and be able to download unlimited music for 1499 a month. i never run with the zune so i dont care if its a little too big but the battery life is awesome, sometimes ill fall asleep and 1up podcasts will run all night and ill wake up and the battery will only be half gone

New and improved ASUS ROG Ally X battery life is just what it needs to compete with the Steam Deck

Yet another leak for the ASUS ROG Ally X points towards as much as 8 hours of battery, but how does that compare to the competition?

Honestly, I really like this updated version. But it doesn't solve the biggest flaw that the original had for me: the Z1 Extreme APU. Yes, it's an extremely powerful part, but it is not part of AMD's Adrenalin driver update program, so it's dependent on Asus for driver updates. And unfortunately, Asus doesn't have a stellar record of support for their devices.

Goodguy0111d ago

Up to 8 hours basically just means the least demanding games. AAA gaming at highest wattage would probably be about 2-3 hours which is good compared to just about 1 hour with the current ally. The OLED Deck can do about 2-3hrs.

mrcatastropheAF8d ago

With much less performance so that makes sense.

The Steamdeck shines at the lower TDP end but gets absolutely mopped at the high end.

Similar longevity with much better performance is a big win for the Ally X

Killa789d ago

Too bad Asus are all awful company.

PRIMORDUS9d ago

They used to be the best when it comes to motherboards, now I will never buy anything from them again.

Firebird3609d ago

8 hrs yea right. Running tetris?

Skuletor9d ago

Only after setting the screen brightness to the lowest level, of course.

Notellin8d ago

They tested the battery life watching a game of Tetris in 360p. Running Tetris natively brought the number down slightly to 1 hour and 38 minutes. 😂

Asuka9d ago

Nope. The only improvements I want to hear is better customer support. Otherwise, I can't be bothered.
