Brilliant MP3 player. Not as "cool" as an Apple one, but so much better. The screen is a better size than that of nano, or some previous sony models. It was easy to transfer films to it because we already had the software that converts it to a suitable format. Watching films at the gym instead of TV is so much better. I love the bluetooth /wireless feature too. I was a bluetooth virgin but pairing these up was a doddle. Work perfectly all the time. And quite useful not to have to wear your MP3 player on your arm while excercising, meaning you can comfortably look at the screen to change tracks. Only downside is that the headphones pinch the top of my ears, but that may be something to do with the way I wear them and I can get different ones eventually. You do get the wireless and in ear buds supplied and those are good phones. As for the price, the Amazon price now is great. I paid £5 more last week, but still chuffed to bits with my purchase.

Well, where to start? The packaged arrived a day early which was great.
The package was well protected and packed well.
The mp3 player: what a gem. this is technology at its best, wireless head set, amazing video and stunning sound quality.
when looking at all the mp3 players i thought £150 was too much, for this its a bargain. i am soo glad i got this. I got this mp3 player in replace of my creative zen which broke down just after the warrenty...

I've had an IPOD for a number of years but it has always suffered from a short battery life and the supplied headphones were terrible. I've been looking for an MP3 player that avoids both of these issues and the NWZA828K does this in spades.

The battery life is outstanding, with bluetooth it is still very good. The sound is stunning, puts the IPOD to shame. The supplied headphones are excellent. The wireless bluetooth headphones cost over 50 pounds separately so the overall value of this is better than you think assuming you want wireless. The player is visible in windows explorer as a drive so it is a doddle to drag and drop files to it.

If you enjoy music and want quality sound then do not look anywhere else. Buy this player you will not be disappointed.

It took me just 10min to transfer my mp3 and connect the bluetooth headset

I initially had doubts about the quality of sound in the bluetooth headset but it turned out to be much better than ipod and creative.........SONY rocks!!!

Dont be bothered about the price...it gives you more than what you would need!!!

Well. My Walkman arrived two days early which was a pleasant surprise. After unpackaging i was amazed at how light the thing was..much lighter than the iPod i had before, and just generally light for its size. i turned it on and played one of the sample videos it came with. WOW. much smoother, better colours and sharper than the iPod (video 30gig). I was also delighted with the earphones; for once you get a decent pair of earphone bundled with an mp3 player. The bluetooth headphones are good too, and i like that i can use them with my phone. Syncing is a dos. I use media monkey gold, but you can use windows explorer or media player which is very useful (another plus over the ipods). From what i can tell, the audio is very crisp and clean. Great job there sony. It is quite pricy, but you get what you pay for and more!
