Product Reviews

Very pleased. Easy to download music and play. Enjoyed using it.

Bought to listen to music in a new car that doesn't have a CD player. Downloaded 45 albums, 3 of 3 CDs and several with 2 CDs. Very easy to download music to and have since also used it through the home radio/CD player, so no longer need to rifle through CDs.

I was somewhat disappointed with this product as I had owned a previous model that appeared to be better made and Id was very unhappy when the newer version only lasted a couple of months because the volume down button stopped working. Not happy with Sony as they said it would be replaced if I could submit Proof of Purchase. Of course, I had proof to Sony on my credit card but did not have the original invoice although it was purchased directly from the Sony website.

i have had 3 mp3 players and sony one is far better than the rest

Had this bought for me 3 years ago and found it really awkward to load music.No way can you just drag and drop like my old music player, unhappy with software and no chance of adding extra memory. Pity it does not have mpeg just proprietary which is not up to the job. Feel my old machine worked better which was the "Creative"

Bought for a sick relative and has provided many hours of enjoyment. Excellent battery life so easy to keep topped up.

only just purchased but all seems good only time will tell

I bought the MP3 yesterday. It was easy to use and I managed to transfer my music from the computer to the MP3 with no problem.

Lovely replacement for my previous Sony. Very easy to transfer music over, with various ways to listen. I prefer albums, but each to their own. Highly recommended.

Wanted an independent player instead of using my phone (saving battery). This is ideal. Easy to use and battery life is excellent.

I bought this a month ago, very happy with it, brought it to my travels and using it daily.

Happy with this mp3 player. Actually looking for mp4 player with this price, seems it is hard to find mp4 feature player in this category nowadays. Don't know how to add playlist, it should have a save to fav option in options button. If it have a speaker built in it will be perfect!

Repeated buy. Easy to use. Good features. Will recommend to friend.

Only just bought this. Seems quite lightweight and plasticy compared with my (very old) Walkman. However, simple to operate and easy to load albums. With an 8GB memory (almost) it has plenty of room for my music on the move

bought to replace sony i had got 7/8 years ago battery has given up the goast this one isbetter then one before

So happy with the quality great sound easy to use. Very pleased

This is easy to set up and use and has a great battery life, keeping my phone storage free for other use. A Bluetooth connection would be great.

Does its job, very light, easy to load mp3, my son loves it. The only less positive feedback i have: not so easy to create playlists, you have to use the music center app which is annoying

Great little player, I used it this week and the shuffle play is s great. Downloaded my music in no time and I’m pleased with it.

Bought this to replace my my existing Sony Walkman which is now sixteen years old. I wanted to keep my music so I have downloaded the old and added it to this one. 900 songs in ten minutes excellent.

Small and compact just right, excellent player. does just what I wanted

Was bought this for Christmas and love it!! Its very easy to use and upload music to.Would highly recommend.

Purchased a week ago ready for admission to hospital as my very old Walkman has finally given up and my CD Walkman is a bit bulky for hospital. Instruction manual was very poor and I had to take advice from my tech son, who quickly set it up for me and I transferred my music without any hiccups. Still struggling to tune in the FM radio, but I will probably not use that facility that much. It has a lovely tone and I have been using my over the ear headphones. One niggle is that I cannot find a holder/protective cover for this model, and have had to purchase a protective screen cover separately - an added expense! But, all in all I am very happy with this item.

The only draw backs are the charging cable isn’t very good and could do with more volume

Always happy with Sony goods, thank you. Happy to come back.

I have managed to download all my old cds on to it over 1000 songs,so pleased

Nice size, Looks good. It is loud. Easy to put music on. For the price would expect the screen writing to be abit better. Looks like something from years ago. Can't comment on battery life atm as only bought today. Hope it is good as my old mp3.

like it perfect size sound is high quality and uploading easy

Excellent mp3 to replace my old one although not as good as previous model

Very happy and satisfied with the Walkman. Very light and handy.

great for playing music just wish there was a service to help edit music content and a way to scheduel, download and play podcasts

Simple radio and MP3 player - great battery life. Downloading music is a bit tricky on a Mac

I always have had sony walkman and this one doesn't fail to disappoint, much better than my last one and with a hold feature which means i dont change song by mistake just by walking

I bought this primarily to listen to podcasts and it's essentially unusable for that. From stuff online, I knew I'd have to do some stuff manually (make a podcast folder, number the episodes to keep them in order). What I didn't realize was that the device doesn't keep track of where you are in the episode and fast forwarding is extremely slow and tedious. So if your listening is interrupted it's painful to get to where you were. Fine for music and radio

This is the most versatile player I own! Not everything has to be bluetooth! I own more than one and they're all loaded with books! This is so easy to use & great for traveling.

I am very happy with rhis great little mp3 player. Even simple for an elderly 82 yr old woman to drag and drop loads of favourite music in. I recommend.

It is so easy to use and it was easy to download my music on to this player

I still have not found a set of ear buds that will stay connected

Bought this to replace our pld I pod - found it to be just as good and easy to use with great sound quality

Regrettably I found this Walkman to be inferior in quality to my previous Walkman A 816 which was more solidly built, gave a better sound reproduction and also in the sound settings had two custom equalizer features. The earphones provided previously were ear buds and now have been replaced by cheap standard ear pieces. Can appreciate that time has moved on, but...........

I enjoy this basic Sony Walkman .However the 8G storage is small, I would recommend to set 16G as minimum capacity for any product design.
