'Wonderful design'

'Slim design with larger screen.'

'The bundled headphones do a capable job of rendering FM-quality broadcasts but fall a little flat when it comes to high-quality audio files, and still struggle with sounds at either extremes -- rolling, deep bass or high trebles came out a little squidgy for our tastes.'

'I plugged several pairs of headphones into the new nano and I was as pleased as ever with the sound, playing MP3, AAC, and AIFF files.'

'The FM radio and JPEG photo viewer found on the NWZ-S710F are nothing special, but both are easy to use and add value to the device.'

'In PC World Test Center audio tests, it netted a signal-to-noise ratio score of 82 decibels--just a shade below the latest iPods and the top-ranked Creative Zen X-Fi --as well as a barely registering harmonic distortion and noise level of 0.01 percent. '

'Even without any of the whiz-bang options or noise-cancelling activated, music is full-bodied and vibrant. '

'MPEG-4 and WMV videos are playable as well.'

'Only three buttons have made their way into the hardware, including a large power/hold button on the top edge, a slim home button below the screen on the front of player, and a button on the left edge of the device for quickly calling up the Zune's onscreen playback and volume controls. '

'the screen is bright and sharp--due in part to Microsoft's decision to use OLED and keep it smaller.'

'multitouch interface'

'The FM radio tuner that Microsoft has always waved over Apple’s head is now joined by an HD radio tuner to tap free, higher-quality terrestrial radio signals alongside your MP3 collection.'

'Videos are extremely sharp--you can even see the rippling of water and waving of grass leaves.'

'built-in noise-cancellation technology'

'Pros Gorgeous OLED screen.'

'Ultra-intuitive touch interface'

'superlative FM radio'
