Easy to use, and users love the sound |
|
| If you think a Walkman® is something with 'auto-reverse' cassette flipping, tape-hiss, and is the size of your head, think again! Walkmen® didn't become extinct in the 80's — they evolved. This year's lineup is getting tons of positive reviews all over the net, and you'll see why: the sound quality is superb, plus you get the delight of simply dragging-and-dropping video, audio, and photos right into the player — unlike other players in the past. Plus, this model comes with upgraded headphones for extra-great sound possibilities. |

What you get with 4GB of built-in memory |
|
| Store up to 2,450 songs or up to 15 hours of video on your Walkman® video MP3 player. So, if you want a little bit of everything, that means you can store a few movies at a time and still keep about 1,200 songs on the player. This is plenty of media for that airplane trip or for use at the gym. And, with up to 33 hours of audio playback time and up to eight hours of video playback time, you don't have to worry about charging your player. |

What's everyone raving about? |
|
| One reason consumers love this player is because Sony uses precise technologies that affect the player's sound. The NWZA816BLK uses four Clear Audio technologies to reproduce crystal-clear CD-quality audio: 1. A Digital Sound Enhancement Engine restores higher sound frequencies lost when creating compressed music files. 2. Clear Bass enhances the bass sound while minimizing distortion. 3. Clear stereo reduces signal leakage from one channel to another. 4. Ex Series headphones give you deep bass sound from a closed design that helps isolate outside sounds. Then, the video is great, too: You get high-quality video with MPEG 4 or M4V profile at 30 frames-per-second. Easily view movies, photos, and music information on the 1.8" QVGA 320x240 LCD display. Altogether this makes a pretty competitive package that users seem quite pleased with. And we at Vann's offer it to you at a pretty competitive price! |

Don't load-n-stop when you can drag-n-drop |
|
| When you connect the player to your PC, it appears on your desktop like a hardware device. That means that instead of needing a special 32-step process to get your music from computer to player, you just drag it to the player's window. This intuitive, user-friendly format makes it so convenient to use, that even if your last Walkman® was a tape player, you'll ease right in to this newfangled technology. By the way, for almost-guaranteed easiness, Sony has instructional videos on their website. |

Time machine shuffle |
|
| Of course, every MP3 player should have at least one feature that's simply there for fun. For the NWZS616FBLK, that would be the time machine shuffle. Say you have a nostolgic moment. Maybe you had a special year, and you want to relive it with some music from 1995. Your Walkman can find all songs recorded in that particular year, shuffle them, and randomly play them back like a magical jukebox taking you on a crazy-mixed-up-trip back in time. That's why if we were going to rate this feature, we would give it five stars for fun! Everybody knows nothing is more fun than getting in a time machine... Weeeeeee! Hop in! |
|
Search capabilities, for when time is a-wastin' |
|
| Thank goodness Sony doesn't make you waste your precious time flipping through menus to find your favorite hits. You can use the first letter of the song, album, or artist to easily find the music you are looking for. Also, your search can be organized by All Songs, Album, Artist, Genre, Release Year, Folder, and Playlists. |
|
Bi-directional LCD display |
|
| Yes, that's right. Watch your videos and view your photographs either vertically or horizontally. Just adjust the screen to the orientation you prefer, and 'Viola!' — a fabulous plethora of direction has become yours. Okay, not really a plethora. Just vertical or horizontal. Sorry. That whole diagonal movement never caught on. That's why it's called bi-directional. Duh! |
|
The headphones |
|
| The headphones are worth some attention as well. They deliver deep bass sound from a closed design that's compact, lightweight, and comfortable to wear, thanks to changeable silicon rubber ear-buds that also help isolate outside sounds. |
|
