Sound

Feb 2, 2009

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Superb sound
Cons: Playlists can only be edited on PC and not on handset
Opinion:
This review is based now on one-week's usage, so it cannot yet cover possible reliability issues.

How does it compare to the iPod?
If you are considering this MP3 player, you are also likely to be considering the iPod Nano 16GB 4th Generation. For me the main differences between the two players are:
- the Sony has much better sound right out of the box as they provide noise cancelling headset with a fairly good bass register. This is something to consider because although the Nano may initially be cheaper, with the Sony you do not have to spend more on a better set of headphones. And if you are buying a flash MP3 player, you're doing so for the music, so headphones will be really important. If anything you may want to buy a cheaper set of headphones for the Sony for when you are exercising, as you don't really want to ruin the bundled headphones with sweat.
