Innovative gadgets don’t come cheap. This player would cost Rs.4990 . For just 2GB of memory this is expensive for sure. But then its a great gadget to show-off .

    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 ;)

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

  • http://www.fonearena.com Varun Krish

    Don’t you think its overpriced ?

  • http://tech-mania.com Sid

    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

    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

    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

  • creamy

  • Ishan

    is it value for money?

  • Aayush

    Hi,
    I purchased the much hyped unwired walkman yesterday and I am quite satisfied with it.
    It fits easily into my ears and there is also 3 types of earbudes provided.(Small,Medium,Large).It looks stylish when worn around and it is also very portable.It is a innovative gadget.No more earphones hanging from the ears to the pocket.Sound Quality is relative.Bass is tight but lacks punch.Highs and Mids are smooth.There is no FM Radio,Sound Recorder,3.5mm jacks.Charging is done via USB port after connecting the device with the supplied cradle.
    RATINGS;
    Features – 5/10
    Performance – 7.5/10
    Build Quality – 10/10
    Value for Money – 7/10
    Overall – 7/10
    Its a good product overall combined with stellar design.It is costly,but innovative gadgets don’t come cheap.As they say,the choice is yours.

    its nt worth yarrr :(

  • Bilal

    This sony Walkman Unwired is a good device and a good buy if you have the money to spend and if u hate all the wires that get tangled. And yes Sweat does seem to have some problems with this device and mine is giving me trouble. Also please note that you must charge this device regularly to keep the battery life. If you dont then i guess the battery life goes down and ultimately u gotta change it. Just take care of the device and enjoy the experience. Sound is really good…..only it must fit into your ears and head properly……guess sony forgot that we all have different heads.

  • Aayush

    Hey evan Shahid Kapoor has also purchased the Sony Walkman Unwired.Saw it on tv.He was wearing it during the promotional event of spending the night in a car with Jennailia d’sousa.(Dance pe Chance)
    So guys purchase it and you will love it.Dont forget to cover the USB Hub on the player with any rubber or silicon material to prevent the sweat problem.
