	EXCELLENT MP3 - Scores 5/5 I have both ipod classic and ipod nano, to be frank none of the ipods come near to walkman MWZA816B, the sound is superb and of very high qaulity, the earbud which come with it is excellent, I even tried it with pro-headphone, without noticing any fault in music qaulity. stick to sony's earphones and you will be better of. if you have small library of albums the 816 is the right set for you. I hope you will enjoy your unit the way I enjoy mine. REVIEW BY ANONYMOUS ON 02 JULY 2008
	SUPERB! - Scores 5/5 Read loads of reviews on here & decided to get one of these. I was a bit concerned about transfering the music as my computer is a bit on the old side but I needn't have bothered. Switched the Walkman on, plugged it in & dragged & dropped the files. No problem. Really fast transfer time to. The sound quality is soo much better than other MP3 players I've had too. I can't praise it enough. If you can't decided what to buy take my advice and look no further. REVIEW BY ANONYMOUS ON 28 JUNE 2008
	WELL IMPRESSED, - Scores 5/5 Received this yesterday and couldn't be happier with it. Charged in 3 hours, intuitive to use, sound quality is superb and the headphones are incredibly well designed and unlike any i've ever come across. PC recognised it without installing software, and i had 750 track on it within an hour. Menus are easy to navigate, the equaliser is a great tool and it automatically levels out the track volumes so my Billy Holiday sounds as loud as my Arctic Monkeys. I didn't buy it for video but the sample one pre-loaded looked amazing. Only negatives really are the headphone jack going into the bottom and the headphone cable comes in 2 parts with a jack to join them which seems daft but doesn't cause any problems. Would have been good if it had a clip to attach it to yourself but am sure they can be bought. Overall a great little thing and i love it. REVIEW BY ANONYMOUS ON 28 JUNE 2008
	SONY ARE BACK TO THEIR BEST! - Scores 5/5 Before I start, I'd just like to say I eventually settled for the 8GB version, as it's only 10 quid extra! So here's my review for that model, though its exactly the same package apart from the memory... I was prepared to write a vast review, praising this beautiful little player. After seeing the sheer amount of 5 Star comments however, my work is cut out! And rightly so - this Media Player is just amazing for the price. Therefore, i'm just going to point out the Positives and Negatives (of which their are few!) THUMBS UP - Box contents is impressive; you even get a little Cradle to put the player in when not in use, for on your coffee table or even charging. Theirs enough paperwork to satisfy even the dumbest person (or that of hundreds of languages), and the headphones are just beautiful! I believe they're worth about 30 quid too. - You can drag and drop files using Windows Explorer - a massive bonus. Gone are the days of awful SonicStage software, and this is just one big step up from having to use iTunes for iPod's. I managed to transfer 29 albums in about 12 minutes, which say's it all really. - The screen - wow! Very crisp and clear, and still easy to see in daylight thanks to Sony's use of Bravia. My player came pre-installed with the Spiderman 3 trailer, which is very impressive even on this 2" screen. You'll need additional software to re-size and compress movies for this player however. - Sound Quality is top-notch. I've always believed in Sony for having the best sound quality, though dodgey software in the past has always led me to other brands. Not such the case anymore! The bass is deep, the Hi-Hats are incredibly crisp, and you also have an array of options to customise your experience. THUMBS DOWN Their are only a few things I can fault with the package, but they are more or less 'logical' things... - The CD-ROM provided doesn't include software for converting movie files, or editing their aspect ratio/dimensions. Bit of a blow, but I found some free-ware on Google. - The headphones suffer from a similar problem to that of many 'Creative' pairs - you can sometimes "hear" any movement made on the headphone wire, because it's very thin. And because of the around-the-neck design, it may get a tad annoying if you're in a quiet area. But if you're out and about, it doesn't bother you. - No carry case/pouch included. This is a bit of a bummer as the screen is very shiny, so I recommend protecting your player with a case. I'm suprised Sony didn't include, what should be, an easy to make accessory. - Though it states 8GB of memory, my player only has 7.3GB free. I know any solid-state media player should never be rounded up to the suggested memory size, but 700mb is still alot of space missing. I don't have the same opinion that other's have over the 'dedicated' USB cable. Lets face it - the memory is around 8GB. When are you ever going to transfer music away from your home computer? Overall, I'm made up and couldn't think of a better media player for the price. Consider this: You could pay 79.99 for a Media Player with 8GB of memory, the best sound quality on any music player I've heard to date, headphones worth 30 quid, a battery that lasts around 30 hours, and the ease of dragging files over using Windows... Or you pay 115.99 for an iPod nano that's only got 4/3 and a half Star review rankings, has less battery life, firmware problems, dodgy screens, and headphones that conk out after a few months. It's your choice... REVIEW BY ANONYMOUS ON 25 JUNE 2008
	GREAT! - Scores 5/5 A caveat before I start...I've only had this player for a week, but I can't help but enthuse about it, so here goes! I decided to buy this little cracker after my Samsung YP-Z5 started playing silly buggers with me by freezing up & not being recognised by my computer. After a wee bit of research (much of it going by the reviews on this page!), I bit the bullet and went for the Sony. Was delivered real quick as per for Amazon, plugged it into my hub & it was recognised right away without having to resort to using the included software. I started to import some great music onto it & after a few hours of charging it was ready to go. Gotta say that the sound quality is brilliant & I'm sure the great earphones are a big help, even if they are rather short. I know you get an extension cord, but why not just have a longer cord? Seems to be a regular complaint in reviews. Other complaints are the lack of a radio, but that's no problem for me. I doubt I'll use the video capability, but the quality is astounding, so you never know. But then, who wants to watch such a tiny screen? So my overall impression after a week is that this is a fantastic little (& it is small!) player & it's doubtful you'll get a better one for the great price at Amazon.
