The vanilla ZEN V is S$179 and S$229 for the 1GB and 2GB players - an extremely competitive price.
To prove how tough the new ZEN V is, Craig McHugh threw it against a wall at www.hardwarezone.com's request moments after this photo was taken.

The ZEN V looks ridiculously small with a 3.5mm audio jack plugged into it.
The ZEN V features a vibrant 1.5-inch OLED screen that looks great even at extreme angles. Though not exactly sharp due to the reflective plastic build, it is still sufficient and should not bother most people.
The ZEN V weighs only 43.5g, and measures 43.5 x 67.5 x 15.9mm.
