I really needed a way to carry my new Zen Micro around, and they don't even come with a place to attach a neck cord; so I bought this case and armband. There's no way to put the Micro in the case except by squeezing it into the stretchy silicon material like pulling on a tight sweater. It was fine for awhile, though I had to take the belt clip off. Then I needed to get at the battery in the Micro, and as I was attempting to (gently and carefully) remove it from the case, the case just ripped like it was made out of Jello. Couldn't even do a repair with tape, as nothing will stick to the material even for a minute. Couldn't be glued, either. Overall, a complete waste of money.
I like the skin and the lanyard, but the armband was not very useful. It's bulky and it is not easy to attach or remove.
I also had trouble removing and replacing the skin after doing a reset, but I think that is the nature of the beast.
If you are looking for a skin for your Zen, this is a good buy. If you want it for the armband, I would look elsewhere.

It is hard to find things for this MP3, because it's not iPod. But I came accross this armband and it was great! I have been looking for one for awhile and am very happy. I Highly recomend this item.
I searched a long time to find a case that would allow me to use my Zen Micro when exercising. This product is GREAT.
I was originally using an iPod armband/case that I had to force my Zen Micro into (it was the only thing I could find) and it was difficult to press the buttons. I was happy to find a case that actually fit the Micro but it turned out to be a terrible purchase. After only a couple of weeks of running (I maybe used it 4 or 5 times) the cheap rubber "skin" holding the Micro broke and the Micro fell onto concrete, breaking it. So now I have to buy a new .mp3 player and a new armband.
I really only bought this product to have something that would keep my MP3 player from getting scratched if I dropped it. It has done that job wonderfully. It doesn't fit as snug as I would wish for the Zen MicroPhoto but it does the job well enough. I haven't had the chance to try it out on the jog so we'll see how I feel after that.
