Sony Walkman X-series in-depth

We take a closer look at what makes the Sony X-series Walkman both great and horribly frustrating. Now if only we could get inside the heads of Sony's pricing department.

Sony Walkman X-series (16GB) NWZ-X1050

Great sound, brilliant OLED touchscreen, noise cancellation and as much YouTube as your Wi-Fi can handle. Shame about the extortionate price.

Reviews

  • Sony Walkman X-series (32GB) NWZ-X1060

    After our preview, we're enchanted with the touchscreen Walkman, but fear that it will only appeal to a small minority of the MP3 player market, namely non-conformists and music aficionados with a burning touchscreen itch.

  • Nokia N78

    The Nokia N78 is a fun phone to use, and despite some annoyances it's likely to find fans in those looking for a feature-filled Apple alternative.

  • Bose On-Ear Headphones

    The Bose On-Ear Headphones are compact headphones with a comfortable fit, but you can get better sounding models for half the price.

  • Nokia 5700 XpressMusic

    Although it's not brimming with features, Nokia's twisty 5700 is a decent enough music phone, but its poor quality headphones and other minor flaws let it down.

  • Sony Ericsson W580i

    Sony Ericsson's W580i is a sexy, thin slider that you'll want to carry in your pocket for its MP3 music player, radio or just to use the built-in pedometer.

  • Sony NW-S705F (2GB)

    A very classy offering with built-in noise-cancelling technology, this little player is hard to fault.

  • Sony Ericsson K610i

    Sony Ericsson's K610i is an attractive mid-range 3G phone that is small and light, but you'll be let down if you're expecting great results from its 2-megapixel camera.

  • Sony Ericsson W800i

    Sony Ericsson's first Walkman-branded mobile phone boasts up to 30 hours of MP3 playback and a whopping 512MB Memory Stick is thrown in for storage. It also sports a 2-megapixel camera for video and stills.
