Creative Android is Here!!

The new Creative ZiiO 7" entertainment tablet is the next evolution in wireless digital entertainment and mobile computing. Extremely compact, portable and lightweight, you don't have to think twice about taking it along wherever you go - the café, on the train or simply lounging on your sofa.

Unlike conventional tablets that offer mediocre sound, the ZiiO 7" does not compromise on audio quality. A touch of an onscreen button instantly launches the Pure Android Audio* application to offer audio-enhancing options including X-Fi, apt-X and Bluetooth® connectivity. With this unique application, you'll enjoy the highest quality wireless audio streamed from an Android tablet to compatible Bluetooth speakers or headphones.

What's more, the ZiiO 7” synchronizes the whole Pure Wireless entertainment ecosystem, delivering Pure Android Audio to not just your music, but movies, games and Internet content too.

The ZiiO 7” also lets you do what other Android tablets do - connect to the Internet, send emails and even shop for apps, games and eBooks from the Creative ZiiStore. Available in 8GB and 16GB versions, it's a portable entertainment tablet that lets you store, manage and stream all audio content from one device, while staying free from wires.


The tablet has a customized ZiiLABS ZMS-08 HD Media-Rich Applications Processor and comes with the X-Fi Crystalizer & Expand audio enhancements. While the Crystalizer helps enhance audio clarity by restoring lost detail, the Expand acts as an amplifier. Ziio also has the following features:

  • 7-inch Resistive Touch display with 480 x 800 resolution
  • Wi-Fi enabled, mini USB
  • Bluetooth 2.1 EDR (with A2DP)
  • Front facing VGA camera
  • 8 GB/ 16 GB expandable up to 32 GB

The tablet also features an accelerometer and has an HDMI-Out port that lets you watch 720p HD videos on your HDTV. Ziio supports quite a few audio formats including AAC, FLAC, OGG, MIDI and more. The video support includes H.264, WMV9 and MPEG4 formats. Strangely, neither DivX or xvid have been mentioned as supported.

The 8 GB version comes at a price of $249.99 while the 16 GB sets you back by $269.99.
