Review: Top quality MP3 player - I've been using the Walkman for almost a year now and it's very good. Yes it is a bit pricey for what it is but having bought a cheaper alternative before from some company you've never heard of which failed after a month the old saying you get what you pay for stands true. It's easy to use pretty much the same as any other MP3 player just drag and drop/copy paste music onto it. Button layout is self explanatory. Battery life is superb. I use this A LOT and battery life easily lasts 30-40 hours. No problem. Sound quality is fine as you'd expect from a Sony walkman. The cons with this is the price but buy sh** buy twice stands true as explained earlier. It doesn't have Bluetooth which is disappointing but not a deal breaker for me personally. It would be nice if it had a belt clip but it's flat and small so easily fits in your pocket. Finally it would be nice if it had a bit more memory 8GB is a bit small. Overall if you're looking for a quality MP3 player that will last a long time. I highly recommend this.

My daughter loves using it, and it’s been a great way for her to enjoy her favorite pop music and audiobooks without distractions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A bit dated now.
*by A***R on 10 November 2025*

I wanted to replace an older Sony MP3 player and this seemed like a good idea at the time. It works ... and it works quite well really ... putting music on it is simple, the buttons make sense and are easy to use. It could do with a bit more volume perhaps, it's not bad, but maybe just a bit more would be useful. No Bluetooth, which isn't a deal breaker for me but would have been nice ... my major problem with it is charging it. It really doesn't like the more modern fast chargers and tends to overheat and sulk. I now charge it from a power bank to ensure it doesn't over-heat.
