  • Abstract:  Compartido 7 Veces Lo hemos estado esperando hace ya bastante tiempo y es que pocos creerán que uno de los productos más criticados del 2006, hoy sea algo que esperábamos con ansias. Porque el Zune HD hace todo lo que podríamos esperar de un reproductor ...

  • La potencia del Tegra es excelente: aceleración gráfica en todo momento, Manejo intuitivo, pantalla multitáctil, Se puede conectar a Internet por WiFi, Radio FM y HD integrada
  • Batería no reemplazable, al menos de forma evidente, No se puede ampliar la memoria del aparato,
  • Bien, siempre es un placer analizar productos distintos, radicalmente distintos, a los que estamos acostumbrados en Noticias3D. La tónica principal del Zune HD es la velocidad: el chip Tegra es, desde luego, una solución multimedia de futuro. Lamentabl...

  • Ottimo display, e possibilità di riprodurre video in alta definizione grazie al processore Nvidia Tegra integrato. Qualità dell'audio di assoluto valore
  • Non acquistabile in Italia. Manca il supporto ai file video DivX e compatibilità con sistemi Mac.

  • fantastisches OLED-Display, toller Webbrowser, einfache, intuitive Bedienung
  • keine Flash-Unterstützung, für HDMI-Ausgang separate Docking-Station erforderlich, keine HD-Auflösung (Display)
