Unboxing and show off ,cowon z2 white+ce1+gel case

mathen · 06-07-2012, 05:27

Finally I got my cowon z2 8gb today,since I have cowon x7 ,in perfect running condition,I bought z2 only because I love cowons PLENUE concept,and sheer BEAUTY OF IT

http://www.plenue.com/intro_plenue_global.html
and I have Iphone 4s and Ipad2 so ,am pampered with apps,but still there are some apps from android which I loved ,when I had a galaxy S2

I bought from cowon india ,directly eventhough initially I ordered from ww.flipkart.com,since price was higher ,they needed 10 days for shipping

By buying from cowon india, i got it for preorder price,one gel case free,and delivery in just 2 days

----

Now let the pictures speak the rest.....

----

more pics,pardon me for pics being of not very high quality,its all rainy here,no good lighting,also I am using my iphone camera

----

Actually the pictures wont do justice,if you are interested do check it out physically,in real life it looks and feels much better,strongly recommended....

----

cowon z2,x7 and ipod classic

Things NOT cool are @ this moment
1.Keys are not back lit
2.port cover/kickstand is flimsy ,wont stand abuse

everything else is cool, especially design, music quality, interface....

----

Cowon CE1 is decent for the price,unlike the players by cowon,this ear phone is "made in china"

----

Upgraded to 1.33 ,its was pretty easy and quick
installed google play,works great, no rooting needed

----

The more I use it ,the more I like it,it never hung or crashed till now

----

musiXmatch lyrics & music is a cool free app ,which automatically gets lyrics from net

----

Got a 32gb sandisc microSD class 4, working fast....
applied a screen guard too..
since gel case is NOT good enough ordered for a white leather case for samsung galaxy s2..

----

Battery is GOOD ,for android standards

You should edit your original post instead of commenting multiple times in a row.

As for the pictures, they look gorgeous! That white Z2 is really a sight to behold.

Did you buy the CE1 separately, or did it come with the Z2?

He bought them separately, the Z2 comes with the Cowon SE2s. (Yes, Cowon gave those terrible stock earphones a name)

Actually I got cowon Z2 for preorder price from their site, so I used the difference to buy CE1,they are pretty good phones, unlike many ear phone,this one is comfortable for long use

I had to ask; based on the packaging, it had looked like it was intended for the two to ship together. I was hoping they had decided to send something better than the earbuds that came with my J3.

I'm absolutely not criticizing you, as I am sure that after merging all of those posts after originally merging both threads, it was probably an honest oversight. I know that I would probably have missed it myself, if I had spent as much time as it takes to do all of that.

It's obvious that the first post is consists of multiple posts - there are separating lines and the statements are incoherent. I think it would be more confusing if I removed those two posts.
Also, I just had to do 16 clicks (12 to select the posts, 4 for the rest) to merge his posts. vBulletin has a built-in function to do that.

Nice. It's been a few years since I've modded a vbulletin board.

Apparently I made an error, my bad.

To me it looks like a vanilla feature.

(Even if it isn't, I'm just glad it's there

)

Meh, mine crashes often but I think it's because of the Dolphin Browser and/or dropbox. Some apps cause problems with the z2, be careful what you download.

I mainly use my z2 for podcasts via beyondpod and shoutcast radio via xiialive lite (groovesalad is awesome!) Of course I use it from time to time to surf the internet and listen to my own music. Pulse app helps sync my favorite websites RSS feeds before I go to work and allows me to access the information with stored offline content so I can catch up on newest articles away from an internet connection. Checking my social apps is easier on my z2 than using my tablet or wife's pc imo.

Games are on my z2 but I only play Scummvm games, Sonic CD, Dead Space, and Mass Effect Infiltrator. I do grab hardwoods solitaire game from time to time to pass the time a bit...

OT: Nice unboxing, the white on the devices body looks alright but reminds me too much about apple, rather steer clear of that. 32gb ftw!
