    hi guys

    I had this awesome device on the first day of availablity, and to share with you guys its best walkman i ever experinced.
    Please find the brief review of this gadget :::

    Pros :

    1. Hard to explain the battery back , it has awesome backup and to be very honest i charged it last week for hardly 30-40 mins and it is still playing , I use it for minimum 100 mins daily .
    2.Easy to operate once understood
    3.Hardly makes you feel that you are carrying anything on your head , as its so light.
    4. Able to fit easily on any head reagrdless of its a devils head (Any shape , size head).
    5. No body can compete Sony in producing the quality voice .
    6. Zappin Function(Zap In , Zap Out , Zap Short (4 sec), Zap Long (15 sec), ) is new and very useful if gadget doesnt have a screen.
    7 . charging is never a pain as it can be easily done with old , boring USB port available in laptop/Pc.
    8, Surely a head turner for others as until they make a decision that is it a Bluetooth or something else i just pass them ..lolz
    9 Opeartble with single hand
    10 No matter you bend , you walk , you run , you jump , this gadget will not fall unless you take it off over your head.
    11. Switching On/Off is a really easy ,it gets ON with just a single press and while switching OFF, user just need to join the two magnets available in gadget.
    12. Copying songs into the device is as easy as copying your stuff in a Pen Drive
    13. In New Delhi i got it for Rs 4700 with 1 year Sony support
    14. The box has a holding device for your gadget so that it doesnt break when you are on the move

    Cons

    1. Sony could have provided 3.5mm output in this device (For attaching external speakers).
    2. Sony coud have provided FM Radio in it.
    3. Learning curve for Zappin function[ (Zap In , Zap Out , Zap Short (5 sec), Zap Long (15 sec) ] is hard for generic MP3/walkman users
    4. User cant forward the current song which is big mistake By Sony i feel.

    Buy It ;)

  • Sid says:

    Yeah its indeed a great device
    i myself wrote about it and find it very damn sexy.
    looks good and sounds even better

  • Sid says:

    My friend bought this 2 days back, listened to the awesome clarity in beach it was crystal clear better than my Sound magic pl-30 N73 Music edition combo.Only thing i hated was price. 5k for that, only 2gb sheesh…

  • Satya says:

    One of my friends has got one a day before yesterday. The sound quality is not upto the mark to spend 5K for this. Also this is not very user friendly. Seems irritating when worn around, though it looks stylish. We can’t praise it stating the music experience is great on it. you can fill your appetite of listening music by this device but you will still be misssing for something extra music experince(bomb-basting).
    It has not been priced well. Not worth more, eve a single penny, than 3.5K. It would be more good if one goes for a 2gb ipod of apple who still can save 1.5K……..
    Don’t you buy any one or you will have to look for someone else to sell it off.

  • Aditya says:

    For those that have it, did you guyz tried this in gym? I heard that sweat kills this device very quickly, even though its targeted for that kind of usage.

  • shashank says:

  • vishal says:

  • abhishek narayan says:

  • tushar says:

    i’m confused should i buy it or not????

  • Akil says:

    hard to digest that it is not an earphone…

  • maruf says:

  • AYUSH says:

    IM CONFUSED I WANT TO BUY THIS BUT I WANTO NOW THAT HOW IS THE SOUND QUALITY IS IT LOUD OR NOT

  • Anonymous says:
