This is a walkman worthy of the name and a great alternative to an ipod. The first thing you notice is the size, its both thin and small and nice to hold in the palm of your hand. The next thing is the top quality screen, photos look vibrant on this player. I don't use it much for viewing but what I've seen shows that Mp4's / video looks crisp and realistic. The most important part is the music and on this Sony does not disappoint. The sound is among the best quality available on today's MP3 / MP4 market - with a good set of headphones you will hear sounds in songs you didn't know were there. There are also Sony's options on the graphic equaliser to modify the ...  Read the complete review

Having been a previous owner of the Sony MP3 NW-A1200 I decided to upgrade. I'm not a fan of the ipod, ipad etc so mainly looked around at the sony, kubic, philips and samsung. I like the upgrade of the Sony grab and drop option to put music on the machine directly - which is so much easier than the previous software, and you can also use media player if you prefer. I love the fact the you can put on BBC iplayer, podcasts and photos on to the mp3 player. Fantastic for those long train/bus/car journeys when you want a film or the previous weeks soap catch up to watch. The buttons are easy and simple to use play/stop/back/forward which for ...  Read the complete review

The Walkman brand is synonymous with quality and before the iPod was released, was the premier choice for music lovers everywhere. The NWZ S638F is a small mp3 player which packs 8gb of storage and features playback of music, photo's, videos and radio. The photo's and video look good and crisp but the screen is a little small to compete with the likes of the iPod Touch. However it is the music playback which is where this player really excels. The sound quality is amazing, so too are the included in ear headphones I didn't bother replacing them as I usually do. The bass is punchy and clear and the trebles sound ...  Read the complete review

I picked myself up an 8 GB Sony Walkman for around $80 at Best Buy after my Sansa Fuze died. I must say, the Walkman is probably the best mp3 player I have ever owned.. and I have bought 6 of them over the years. We all know that Sony has a pretty good track record of delivering quality products, and this is no exception. However, generally if you want Sony quality you have to put up with Sony price. Not the case here as this is MUCH cheaper than anything like it at the moment. Anyhow, the player itself is excellent. Transferring files to it is a breeze, you can use the "Content Transfer" software (drag and drop, very easy) or you can just use ...  Read the complete review

This walk,an is brilliant is stores everything from music to photos to films. With the mp3 there is headphones and a usb cable. This is used for charging the walkman and for putting songs onto it. You can create playlists and you can also choose a song randomly from the year it was released. You can choose the background image for the menu on the walkman. It is very sleek and visually atrractive and is very easy to use. The only thing that is slightly irritating is the fact that the appliance can not be turned off, only by holding down the options button. This does not tun the walkman off, just puts it on standby so if you toucg any button the walkman will ...  Read the complete review
