Sony’s Walkman NW-A300 & NW-ZX700

“The Sony NW-A300 Walkman is a sequel to a 2019 Walkman which brings a new Android version, a better chipset and longer battery life.

The Sony NW-A300 is the cheaper option, going for 399 euro ($430).

It comes with a 3.6-inch 1280 x 720 touch screen LCD, 32 GB of storage, Wi-Fi 802.11AC and Bluetooth 5, and promises a battery life of 36 hours for 44.1 KHz FLAC playback or up to 32 hours of 96 KHz FLAC.

To pay homage to the good old days of connectivity, the new Sony Walkman NW-A300 also has a headphone jack, a spot for a lanyard, a microSD slot, plus physical buttons or most controls.

Then, for the audiophiles who aren’t scared by large price tags, you have the Sony NW-ZX700 Walkman, which will retail for about $820.”

Features MicroSD for expanded storage

Thats literally a Zune but worse

Corporate greed

Youngins will never feel the rush of pressing play & feeling that CD start turning in your hand

“To pay homage to the good old days of connectivity, the new Sony Walkman NW-A300 also has a headphone jack”

damn remember headphone jacks?

$430? this s*** better play vinyl records too

Am I tripping or these look gas? I’m lowkey interested in one

bruh thats an ipod touch

Still have one and I refuse to give it up

They charging steam deck prices for a mp3 player 💀💀💀

Headphone jacks 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

$430 for a 32GB device

Mfs took a page out of the Apple playbook

as you should. it’s kinda stupid to refer to headphone jacks as antiquated, as if they’re not in use all the time just because Apple doesn’t incorporate them into their products anymore

big for audiophiles

going to hell

Trash

Didn’t iPods get discontinued cause people can just stream music off their phone instead of needing a separate device

I had the Walkman NWE307 changed my life ngl

Think that’s where my love of music began

32 gigs

With Android 😭

Not for me but that’s still kinda cool.

Why

It came preloaded with this s*** for whatever reason and now I’m a house fiend

32 GB in 2023 this is highway robbery

i could see these sellin like hotcakes in eastern europe
