A phone this small would be amazing. I’d strongly consider carrying around a portable hotspot to go with it if I didn’t need to take phone calls. It fits in the mini pocket on my jeans!
@@akash5180 it runs android, it's no different than any existing smartphone, just missing a mobile data antenna. I said this because unfortunately there are no more modern small android phones available and this looks like the perfect size phone.
@@lucasn82_ Even though it is special just get everything from JBL because they're just the best they have the best speakers out there and they do sound the best Even though the sound core might sound more open than JBL charge 5 The JBL charge 5 is a more budget speaker is worth affordable it's more durable the JBL Xtreme 3 it's also more durable but sounds louder and have more bass than the charge 5 but it puts more of an emphasis on the highs so it can sound bright but the sound core sounds a lot more balanced than the JBL Xtreme 3 because it doesn't put as much of an emphasis on the highs but JBL's always the best
@@Mingzhe583 Really Im writing about MP4/AAC player not JBL speakers that I dont care. X-series is player from 2009 with OLED screen, glass, metal frame and artificial stone, Noise Canelation and first S-Master true digital amplifier.
The og times are back I love Sony like so much whenever I see a old Sony device I always think that I should not throw it it’s Sony so no chance of throwing it away
@@akash5180 I hope they try Tidal to really get the most out of their stuff. Just unfortunate it doesn't have a big library like Spotify, but until Spotify offers FLACs or lossless WAVs, perhaps the difference between a regular smartphone and this for Spotify isn't big, yeah.
Wanna know the best thing about these, they are just like a real phone but with even better sound quality, another awesome thing about these is that you can download pc related files like emulators
An ipod with an SSD mod, Classic, Mini, anything, is an amazing Device. Back when apple didn't make overpriced garbage that was out of Service 5 seconds later... (That is why I have 3 lmao)
Anybody here asking for headphones should just seek themselves out. This is not meant for you people, if you expect headphones with a player, you don't need one this expensive cause you clearly have no clue about actually good headphones anyways.
It is, but only for the stock player app because it’s built into that instead of being a system-wide feature. The performance is just about good enough for that and Spotify, it definitely isn’t amazing but I have no complaints about speed.
That’s actually a valid point, would free up pocket space whilst being a little throwback to the originals. I will say though that this thing is small enough to fit in the mini pocket that most men’s jeans have, if that’s any consolation
@@SonyEnthusiast sorry to say that you have to wait for the new product a new version that has slimmer bezels and they're better display resolution and a better camera
What’s the point of players when digital services prevent u from truly owning what you purchased, and u can’t download it. You are generously welcome to “Listen”, and, I don’t know, pay money for cloud space?
I definitely would buy that. Sony still respects quality audio, and so do I.
its project q
No headphones tho lmao

They respect everything except live action spiderman movies 😅
@marsoblivi0n945 hi can you recommend some. I'm interested in getting into this kinda stuff.
Walkman used to be a lo-fi cassette player. Now it's a hi res digital player.
Good job
lo-fi? not really.
@@theantiquescollector2199yeah this brother tripping af. Sony literally creates flagship audio shit. they're the pioneer dude. the dd9 is one of the greatest cassette player to ever graced this earth
@@qayyim3299 agreed. i have a WM-32 and with it being just an ordinary walkman it sounds amazing
If there was a sim slot in this I'd definitely use it as a phone.

@@EwanJP2001 check out the unihertz jelly series of phones
@@EwanJP2001the lil pocket was added for coins, its called a coin pocket
Its a digital audio player not a freakin telephone

Sound quality still better than most phone
It’s a music player so I would hope it has better sound quality than a phone
It's entire purpose is to give good sound quality
this shit cost as a "medium" range phone and predominantly used for music, i wouldn't expect less
no shiz sherlock!
that's the entire and only point of it
The best Walkman was NWZ-X1050 and NWZ-X1060. Electronic Art.
But your phone is still better
@@Mingzhe583 nope. NWZ-X series was special.

@King Kong pretty much a good day for destruction 🔨
i wish they make a budget version of it thats like around 100$ USD
They do. It's the Sony NW-E394 Walkman.
one that has android on it @@citizenoftheninthdivision
@@citizenoftheninthdivisionDoesn't have SD card slot though, due to which it is basically useless.

I still have my walkman E NWZ E345. It is so old, but I still love it.
I wonder if this modern walkman Will be detected as a walkman in My PS3
"Made In Japan" no more 😢
well, japan is aging
Where it is made then?
because they dont have sex
@@Zevis48 Just like me fr fr
@@NetvoTVMine was made in Malaysia
I bought a walkman in 2011. With a decent pair of earphones, it still sounds better than my smartphone's speakers or my OnePlus buds 3 Pro.
I still have my Sony walkman mp3 player (Sony NWZ-S716) from 2007. It's still awesome.
this is neat sony dap ive seen in a while… gonna keep this in the back of my mind while looking for one…
Ooh Sony Walkman!❤❤❤❤
Smart move to bring back this familiar name - Walkman.
When i have this i will move my Spotify to a walkman
You'll still listen through Spotify in hi-res player? 🙄

The Mini disc player was TOP QUALITY sound
Sticking with iPod classic 7th gen. No spotify or other apps. Pure music
An ipod with an SSD mod, Classic, Mini, anything, is an amazing Device. Back when apple didn't make overpriced garbage that was out of Service 5 seconds later...
(That is why I have 3 lmao)
@@Rau-DrYou put SSD in your Ipod?
@@TheCapsteverogers I replaced my MiniDrive Disc in my ipod Mini with a Cf to SD adaptor for 128 GB of reliable Storage.
Except for the fact that itunes app is ATROCIOUS. absolute disgusting experience with that garbage.
@@Rau-Drhow do you add music to your iPod classic in 2024 ? I need to know detrimentally 😭
I think i had a sony mp3 player when i was a kid. Now i'm getting an ipod.

Exactly 🤣. This video and this music player goes over their heads.....
NICE 👍
Pioneer is literally cooked now...
Sony is always the best choice!
also lots of respect to sony for still making the walkman
good morning sony
Thanks for gifting me 😊😊😊
I have this it's great would deffo recommend, it's hard to get the official flip case in the UK though, imported my case from AliExpress
I'm glad it uses USBC now instead of that Apple-esque prop connector
Don't care just chill with my Sony walkman a good choice for music👍👍
This amazing i just wanna that going travel or exercise 🏃🏻♀️
I want one 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
😍😍😍
I want one.
My childhood memory Sony Walkman Sony Trinitron tv Sony betamax love you Sony I'm from Pakistan🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰❤❤❤❤❤
I bought one its really good 👍
How does sound quality compare to just listening through a flagship phone? Is it really that significant?
If sony made one with build in gamepad and it had good spec to run some android game than we will finally have a modern psp
They haven't made that yet they're really trying right now 😞
NO GAMES ARE DUMB
@@AMPProf yeah they're dumb add sodas they're cheating
they did, it was called the xperia play.
@@saqlain15 yeah but it didn't have proper games or controls
[smoking a cigarette] Oh, GOD, that was good.
Love mine 💯
I think when the time comes and I’m just done with iPods I’ll move on to one of these
Can you listen to offline downloaded music?
now release this form factor as a modern-day dumbphone without increasing the screen size!
Is the casette player live wallpaper included here? Too bad the interface feels lag and slow
It is, but only for the stock player app because it’s built into that instead of being a system-wide feature. The performance is just about good enough for that and Spotify, it definitely isn’t amazing but I have no complaints about speed.
It’s a little ridiculous they no longer have the belt clip.
That’s actually a valid point, would free up pocket space whilst being a little throwback to the originals. I will say though that this thing is small enough to fit in the mini pocket that most men’s jeans have, if that’s any consolation

These are not cheap.
I'll buy this device to throw into my backpack and working out at the gym 🏋🏾♂️🦵🏾👟🎧💽
So Cute MP4 with Android System
Ill wait for a @Dankpods review first. But thanks!
Sony should turn this into a phone.
This Is Good As iPod classic 7th Gen
It's not an iPod, it's a Walkman
Please can more companies make phones this size!
ikr i wish this thing got sim
watching from sony 1 iii 🌛🌜
Can you use these for streaming services? Like load em up with Spotify music or Apple Music etc?
Sony makes quality
Do you have a question about connecting Bluetooth headphones?
A walkman without headphones ? XD
and for usd350?
For how niche it really is it's kind of assumed you already have a nice pair of headphones lying around.
Yeah, because nobody who already owns headphones is buying a $350 walkman
Yes
This is for audiophiles, who probably would have way better earphones/headphones then basic ones that would come with.
Buying Link Please
เจอกันเร็วๆนี้
Sony's version of a smartphone
Does it have ESP Anti Skip lol?
Add a sim slot we want to use it as a phone
It look nice 😊😀
looks exactly like every other smartphone though... wish they'd return to tactile buttons and a classic, minimal interface
WILL THEY COMPLEMENT WF 1000 XM4s & UK PRICES
This player is for wired IEMs. This will not change the sound of wireless gadgets unless you EQ them.
can you guys make cheaper ones, i just want one with buttons: volume, previous, next, shuffle, and then an audio jack
please put walkman tech into the next xperia
why are your product names so catchy?
Sony take all my money now
Wow I thought this gonna be an old device
Request you make a budget walkman series like 2007 previews and new os Android version mix version like x series😅.
Can it connect Sony wh ch 520
Is it worth it? No.
Do I eant it? F*CK YEAH!
I need this phone
Damn i want that so bad how much does it cost
This depends on the storage size.
Does C type ear phone supported on this Sony NW-A306?
So it's a Walkman without any headphones in the box?? Kind of backwards, no?
Love how Sony can’t name anything with a catchy name except for playstation
No tendran un walkman de cassette de los antiguos, de esos de metal e buscado uno tanto tiempo y nunca e podido conseguirlo
not a walkman anymore, it's now a walkgrandpa
Can handle SD Card 256GB? Not heavy to use if full memory?
Why not a portable speaker with radio and sd card for outdoors !?
It’s small and pretty
How do you download music? Can still get Spotify there?
yes this is a normal android device with google play store so you can download any streaming service
how about the battery life?
1.make it EVEN SMALLER
2. PLS USE THE OLD BUBBLY ICONS FROM ANDROID 4.4 XPERIA
Id be cool if they had e ink
SUPER DOrKY BUT hellzz Yahhh
I heard such an MP3 player is out there, but it lacks a microsd card slot.
What is e ink?

Yes, you do. Ive been trying to figure out how to use it without my phone, too
IS IT AVAILABLE IN INDIA ?
Nice thing, but where is the cassette?😂
Bhai camera hi laga dete ek back side mein phone hi ban jata . Sales bhi achii hoti.
Y los auriculares?

FM you are very
It’s like an iPod touch but it’s made by Sony
Will you be giving these to all the people who bought the last model for free? Since the last model's battery doesn't last more than 5 minutes
a problem created by making batteries not easily swappable in the first place 🙄
