Sony NWZ-A818 Walkman: Compare prices

By Jasmine France on 13/02/2008

More Sony reviews , RRP: AU$369.00

The good:

  • Slim design with a lovely, ample screen
  • Easy to use
  • Comes with high-quality earphones
  • Audio quality is excellent, and there are plenty of sound enhancement options and two custom EQs
  • Supports photo and video playback
  • Fantastic battery life

The bad:

  • Even with the included extender, the Sony NWZ-A810's earphone cable is very short
  • Placement of the hold button on the back of the player is neither convenient nor ergonomic
  • No FM tuner, voice recorder, or memory expansion slot

The bottomline:

The Sony NWZ-A810 offers a fantastic display, a sleek design and interface, and a stellar battery life -- plus, it's one of the few MP3 players that sound great right out of the box. Users looking for the whole package (sans radio) will be pleased.
