Before I buy...

nashtok · 06-08-2008, 08:23 PM

Hi! I'm new here and am pretty certain that I am going to buy a Zune 80, but I have a few questions.

How scratch resistant is it? I know the screen is glass so it will not scratch easily, but what about the squircle?

Do the earbuds come with the little case that is included if one was to purchase them separately?

About how long does it take to charge?

Anyway, thanks in advance and I hope to be the proud owner of a brand new Zune soon!

1. I've had it for about six months now and not a single scratch, not even a small one.

2. I don't think I know what you're talking about here...

3. Does it honestly matter? Microsoft says that the battery is good for 30 hours, this means that if you let it charge overnight, you should be good on battery for the whole day until you go to sleep again unless you watch a lot of videos. ]

Hope this helps!

its damn near impossible to scratch. no no case, but it does come with a rubber band thing. 2 hours to 90% battery 3 to full (i know it makes no sense). I would also suggest getting one from Zune originals.

Welcome to the Social (in advance)

my screen is a lil dirty lol but not scratched at all but I do have a big scratch on the back of mine but not very noticeable
I dont remember anything about the headphones. Im not even sure where my headphones are its been about 10 months since ive even used any lol
IMO it charges fairly fast, faster than my cell phone and digi camera do anyway

1. It's very scratch resistant. You could get away with no case, although if you do get one, you won't have to worry at all.

2. No, they do not. They don't even come with the rubber band thing (Beausiph).

3. It take about 3 hours to full charge, at least with the AC adapter.
