As a music lover, I have to have some way of listening to music while out and about. That said, I tend to be a little late in catching up with technology. I had a cassette walkman years after everyone else had a CD walkman. I got one of them, and MP3 players appeared. I got my first MP3 player over 3 and a half years ago, and it wasn't top of the market. I kept this until April this year, when on a bit of a whim I bought the Sony NWZ-A729. I had been vaguely considering buying a new MP3 player as although mine worked perfectly, it was large and heavy, one of the early 20GB Creative ones. So when I saw this Sony on the Argos Clearance shop on Ebay for £69.99, I ...  Read the complete review

Small but perfectly formed. It may have been around a good few years now but i still havent seen anything newer than id consider swapping my little sony for. If you dont want, dont like or cant afford an ipod then this little MP3 is for you.

As you know, that Sony doesn't dissapoint when it comes to extraordinary sound quality, exceptional picture viewing and extremely simple control buttons - which makes it extremely easy to use. The only bad thing about this walkman is that its accessories like cases etc are very expensive. So what about the ...  Read the complete review

All my life i had stuck to the typical mp3 player and although the idea of owning a walkman intrigued me i was still uncertain as to whether i should actually get one as i had no complaints with my current. But then my current mp3 player failed and broke, and it had also run out of room so i could not fit my entire music collection on it, which did make me annoyed at many occasions while out of the house. So due to this, it gave me that final push to make the leap and move onto this model. I was highly pleased with the model, it had a large enough memory for what i was looking for, and despite previous worries it was incredibly easy to use with clear menus and ...  Read the complete review
