Sony Walkman NW-A808

Advantages: Control, battery life, big screen, sound quality, superior headphones
Disadvantages: A little light in terms of weight but the purchase of a skin eleviates this

...of other brands such as Sony and Samsung. Up until recently I owned a 30 gig Ipod video. Don't get me wrong, it was ok in terms of sound quality. I thought the battery life (up to 14 hours) sucked and Itunes was the most user unfriendly software I've ever used. So, one day, I read a magazine review of the NW A808, and I bought one. The first thing that strikes you is the size of the screen which is bigger than the Ipod Nano's. The other noticeable ...
...songs and menu on the Sony (using up, down, left and right) is quicker, responsive and easier. It feels more natural. My wife will argue that the sound quality on the Sony is not as good as the Nano, but I disagree. There are an abundance of settings that can be adjusted to get the sound you want. The headphones are amazing, coming with not only a headphone extension lead, but also different sized headphone pads. I personally think the sound quality ...

Superb MP3 player!

Advantages: Dynamic playlists, high quality audio, great headphones, cool design, easily fixed and calendars/dates.
Disadvantages: Dodgy sound-toggler, headphones can break in heavy usage conditions.

...problem was resolved easily by Sony through Argos (where I purchased mine.) The headphones (Beautiful!) unfortunately broke due to heavy-usage, however they also resolved that when I sent it back. On a brighter note, it can store 5 Playlists, and lots of DYNAMIC playlists (You can create dynamic playlists on the computer, and they have functions such as "Play for 2 hours" or "Play 20 songs"). There is a calender on it which is very convenient ...

First impressions

Advantages: Looks, battery, size, weight, quality, features, sound, everything
Disadvantages: None

...as a serious competitor. This sony mp3 player is as good as they get at present, plays music and sounds brilliant, stores photos and movies which can be played on a brilliant large colour display. As with all sony mp3 players it has a superb battery life lasting 30hours which outdoes all its rivals especially apples nano's. It looks great being ultra slim stylish and lightweight and has a massive 8gig flash memory. The build quality is second to ...

Sony Walkman NW-A808 8GB is great value for money!

Advantages: Small, light and great battery life.
Disadvantages: The hold button is easily switched off.

Great product, which is a little small for watching videos, but has more than enough space to put one or two movies on and hundreds of tracks. With its excellent battery life it's a brilliant product to make your long commute to work in the morning fly by! The menus are extremely easy to navigate and gives a range of ways to organise tracks. It also includes an option to create playlists on the go, so you can pick and choose your songs of the week ...
...slightly annoying thing about this product is that if you turn it off and put it on hold and then put it back in your pocket, it is extremely easy to accidently take it off hold and it starts playing without you noticing. The software also lets it down a little bit, but all in all great value for money. ...
