| I've used just about every MP3 player there is and this one is right there with the best of them. It's small light and extremely easy to use. You don't need ANY software to upload songs to it. The device shows up like a drive on your PC. You have the option of using Windows Media Player 11 to upload songs, but I'd rather just drag and drop songs or use my Napster subscription to upload songs from Napster's huge library. I thought 2GB wouldn't be enough but it is so easy to upload songs when my mood changes that it's never been an issue for me. If you like to watch movies then you may want to go with the larger 4GB (NWZS616) or 8GB (NWZS618) versions of this model since a typical movie takes up ~700K memory after you compress it to QVGA. If you want a larger screen size then you can get the NWZA815. That model is basically the same player with a larger screen. It also has a heavier metal shell, but it does not have an FM tuner like the NWZS615, and I wanted the FM tuner. I typically use my player in shuffle mode in my car and if I don't want to hear a song, it is a breeze to reach down and click just to the right of the center button to skip to the next song. I honestly can't see how anyone would be disappointed with this player especially when you consider the great price. |
EXCELLENT!!

| My son got this for Christmas and my Daughter got an Ipod. The Walkman is SO much easier to use! Very user friendly, has FAR MORE features than the ipod and you don't have to deal with the "i" software or syncing thru apple. This player works fabulous with Windows Media Player. It's fast and so easy to upload, select, sync...everything you need to do in no time flat! The iPod is confusing, the buttons are strange and not very user friendly. I wish I had bought one of these for my daughter and not wasted my money on a iPod! This is a FABULOUS player for songs, video, pics...EVERYTHING! Very Easy to navigate!! I LOVE IT and my son is THRILLED!!! |
Great MP3 player for the price

Forget spending more for an iPod, this little player is awesome! Got this for my birthday and absolutely LOVE it! First of all, the sound quality is as wonderful as I would expect from Sony. The interface is easy to use for loading on songs and it took no time at all for me to learn to navigate the menus. I was worried about space but I have about 500 songs loaded with plenty of space left for more. I haven't had a problem at all with battery life, the manual says 33 hours and while I haven't kept track, I have gone a very long time without having to charge it up. The video screen is small but pictures come out crisp and clear and videos look great! All in all I think my husband made a great choice!
Just a few minor complaints. 1. I wish the USB connector was the same as the one used by my blackberry so I'd have one less cord to deal with. 2. The headphones that come with the unit have great sound quality but are really uncomfortable. 3. Wish that there were more accessories for this unit from other manufacturers. Sony puts a premium price on the docking stations and speakers so I would like to see some other manufacturers have accessories for this unit. Still, the pros definately outweight the cons!! |
Far better than an iPod

Got this player as a gift for my grandmother, loaded it up with music & pics of the grandkids and so forth. Fantastically easy to operate, and the pictures look great on the screen. Also love the slideshow feature.
Haven't gotten any remarks back from recipient yet, but I will post another review if I hear any complaints. Also - it's REEEEEALY nice that they've broken away from Sonic Stage. The drag&drop file loading means you aren't bound by any one player, and that's certainly a feature apple could stand to integrate. I have a gift Nano that stayed in its packaging for a year and a half because I couldn't get the ^&%$ thing to work, and when we bought a mac recently and were able to reformat it (it refused to reformat on our old PC) I took a look at it, and told my husband to either keep it for himself or put it back in the box, because I'd be getting a sony mp3 for myself sometime soon. |
Awesome!

| My son loves this mp3 player, I puchased it for him for Christmas after a thorough investigation into different mp3 players. The walkman sound clarity is "Sony" (meaning outstanding!). It includes FM radio, which IPODS don't have, not to mention how user friendly it is. Let me just say this, I played with his for awhile & ultimately purchased a cute little pink one for myself ( I just exchanged the goofy little shuffle my husband purchased and got a few bucks back to boot!) I would highly recommend this! |
