 ... small can hold all of my favourite music and transfering is a brezze. It comes in several colours, i myself have the white one which looks pretty cool. It also comes with some of the best headphones ive ever had that seem weird at first beacuse of the way they're designed but fit right in your ear and deliver some astounding bass (espically with the bass setting all the way up). transfering music as i said is a brezze as i use windows media players libary to access all my music and as soon you plug it it'll pick ...more

Premium Review Great Mp3 player (472 words)

It took me a while to get my act together and buy an MP3 player, and invested in this Walkman a little over a year ago. It is the first (and only) MP3 player I have bought, and my main reason for choosing this one was the drag and drop functionality, which works very well. You simply drag whatever music you want into the relevant folder when the Mp3 player is connected to your laptop. I found the idea of this preferable to be locked into Apple's proprietary software/music system that accompanies the iPod. The design of the NWZ A818 is very slick; I couldn't believe how small and smart it looked when it arrived. A free carry case or screen protector would ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Walkman NWZ-A818 8 GB: I don't need a pod (421 words)

Son y have really excelled themselves with the Sony NWZ it could be a big contender to the ipod. The sony is packed full of features which are easily navigated through on a simple menu, you can easily search through all of your favourite artists or albums, you can even just put shuffle on which randomly plays through your entire track list whcih is one of the key things that i love in a MP3 player. The Sony also has another groovy little feature called a time machine shuffle where it will randomly select a year and will pay through all of your songs from that year which adds a little entertainment. It doesn't only play music The Sony is also ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Excellent player continuing on the famous walkman brand (440 words)

I bought this tiny player for my girlfriend when it was going for £75 at the time. What an amazing bargain that was. With a full host of features such as video, music, pictures and a massive 8GB of space this player has nearly everything. The player itself is tiny in size, about half the thickness of my mobile and smaller in both length and width. Great for using in the gym or anywhere for that matter. The sound quality is excellent and probably better than that of an iPod (although perhaps not as good as iRiver players). This is enhanced by the inclusion of some quality headphones which is unusual for MP3 players these days. Having bought iRiver product for ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Walkman NWZ-A818 8 GB: I wouldnt buy anything else (574 words)

I went travelling around a year ago and needed some way of playing my music when I was away, my brother and almost everybody I knew had ipods, but I wasnt convinced by their tie-in to itunes so started looking elsewhere for an alternative. At the time I came across this Sony 8GB player which was only £80 around a year ago, this was a great price for what you got. Now they have superceeded this unit with one that holds 16GB for around the same money. This had everything that I wanted, stylish looks, a relatively large storage capacity and with Sony you know you are getting a good quality unit, perfect for time away as having to replace a cheaper one ...  Read the complete review
