What's great about it: Loved the features and sound.
What's not so great: When they battery no longer charges a year from now, no replacements
We boutght an 8 gig and a 16 gig of this product, not knowing that a year later the battery would stop being able to be charged. Tried to get a replacement only to find you can't get one, not from best buy or any battery seller. Even if you find one, you have to dismantle the entire player and solder the new one on. We spent weeks looking for replacement all over the net to no avail and have now thrown the players and our money down the drain. Apple IPOD supports their batteries with a replacement. Will be my new player.

What's great about it: sound and ease of use
I bought one of these for myself and one for my wife, because our old ones were just wearing out, and since the older ones were durable and had great sound I stuck with Sony. I was not let down, once again a great product from Sony. The sound and comfort are great when working out at the club, and the headphones that come with it were better than any I tried to buy. When a product line is this good I know any future purchases will also be Sony.

Love the red color, love the size of it. I had issues with a few things- I didn't like the music subscription program that came with it, so I'm not using it. Also, I had some trouble downloading my Playlists from Rhapsody on it and figured out it can't download too many songs at once, or it just stalls. Doing one song at a time works, but it's a pain! I love the graphics on the MP3, the radio is awesome too. Overall, I'm happy with this!

What's not so great: very few accesories
I got this mainly based on price vs "The I products" Very easy to use, looks good too. My only complaint is the lack of room size playback units available. Only ONE from Sony, nobody else....

What's great about it: Easy to operate
What's not so great: No complaints yet.
My other MP3 was more difficult to operate while using a treadmill or biking.This Sony is much easier and holds twice the amount of music. I don't need to recharge it as often as the other MP3. I don't like to be required to read a lot of directions and this MP3 just what I needed.

What's great about it: Great price and easy to use
What's not so great: Hold or pause feature could be better
The biggest problem is losing your place when playing an audio book. The hold feature works okay if you are only going straight back to what you were listening to. If you go somewhere else, like the radio, and then try to go back to what you were listening to, it takes you back to the first of the book. The radio antenna is also a little weak, but all in all it works very well. It was certainly worth the price.

What's great about it: easy to transfer files, easy to use
What's not so great: battery doesn't last 50 hours like it says and you can't listen to it while it's charging like I read on another review.
I found the battery to last 20 hours. It was easy transfering mp3 files to the mp3 player using using the microsoft media player. You can not listen to it while it's charging.

What's great about it: easy to use, long battery life, durable
I got the Walkman to use for an after-school program that I run. Since different people handle the product it needed to be simple to use, have enough memory to last long periods of time with repeating, and durable! So far the Walkman has done great even though it has been dropped a few times and anybody on staff is able to use it! And as a further plus, the battery lasts forever, I rarely have to charge it. Also, I assumed that the included headphones would be junk; however, they are fairly nice and I often use them when I forget to bring mine into the office.

LOVE my sony walkmans. We have 4 now, this red one being the latest purchase for my daughter. They are so easy to use, plug and play, no "other programs" needed to load and unload music. Great sound quality and very durable. I've had mine for 4 years now and it's still perfect.

What's not so great: head phones wear out fast. this is 1/19/2012 and they are just about shot, i listen to music all the time
got for x-mas and it works great. Have to drag music files from the computer files to load on the walkman. the info said you could download from i-tunes but you have to get the music from your computer music files or microsoft media player. other than that it works great and is easy to use.

What's great about it: Easy to use and great sound
What's not so great: Not enough storage with 4GB
This is why I bought the Sony Walkman 4GB MP3 player. First I like to listen to music. Second most of my music is on CD's and a new Sony CD player would cost about $40.00 plus batteries and an adapter would add another $15.00 to $20.00 to the cost. Third CD's are fine if you like to listen to just one artist. With this MP3 player you can put many of your CD albums of different artists on it plus music videos or your own videos and also add your own photos. Forth the addition of FM radio and a voice recorder is an extra bonus. Fifth you can adjust the sound to just the way you like it with the equalizer. You can use Sony's presets or make up your own equalizer settings. That is why I chose the Sony Walkman 4GB MP3 player.
I have had this for over a month and I still haven't read the instructions that came with because it is so easy to use. My other MP3 players don't come close to this one.
My only regret is that I did not buy the one with a larger amount of storage space. 4GB is just not enough for me.
This is one great little MP3 player. I chose the red one because it looks so much nicer in person than on a monitor.

I needed an MP3 player without using headphones. And I am also looking for a touch screen. So I returned this item because I need to get what I really wanted for in an MP3. However, this MP3 player is very good quality, durable and the sound is superb!
