What's great about it: bluetooth capability
What's not so great: the buttons are too sensative
if you don't hold it on the sides and accidently touch the face it will turn on,change stations ,programs etc. if you accidently turn it on w/o knowing by touching the face it could be several hours before you realize this ,and the battery could be dead. has good sound and capacity

What's great about it: great price, easy to use
What's not so great: pictures do not rotate
great deal! i've been using this MP3 player for a while now and love it! easy to use and sounds great! haven't had any issues with it at all. has a microphone so you can use it as a voice recorder, even lets you sing Karaoke. only flaw is that pictures show up un landscape mode if they were originally in landscape, there's no option to rotate a picture. i love the bluetooth headphones it came with, its great to put the player down and be able to walk away from it without having to stop listening to a song. all around a great product, can't beat the price either!

What's great about it: wireless earphones, great sound quality
What's not so great: can't listen to FM with wireless earphones, no case made specifically for it
After a few months researching MP3 players, I finally decided on this one due to the included Bluetooth wireless earbuds as well as the ability to listen to podcasts. I was impressed that the wireless feature, typically an extra $100+ to buy as an accessory to MP3 players, came included along with regular earphones. It made the price of $140 (on sale) a great value.
In response to some of the comments regarding the wireless earphones not being truly "wireless" - it is true that it does have some wires causing one to have to be creative in putting it on to get the wireless feel. First, some specifics about them - the left earbud is attached to a 5 inch wire and the right earbud is attached to a 20 inch wire. They combine into one wire (about 12 inches) which leads to the 2 inch long by 3/4 inch wide clip-on controller. I personally run the longer wire behind my head and clip the controller on my collar near my shoulder or toward my back. I have read that this uneven length of earphone wires is common with some earphones. Since some people have compared it to the Sansa, here is some information for comparison since I used to own one before it died. The Sansa Clip+ player is a little over 2 inches long and 1 1/2 inch wide. The wire leading from each earbud to the main wire is 12 inches and the main wire which runs to the player is about 31 1/2 inches (much longer than the Sony wireless controller clip).
In response to a complaint made by another reviewer regarding the automatic connection to the Bluetooth - I found that hitting the BACK button immediately will cancel the attempt to connect in the event you want to use the regular earphones. Not a big deal at all.
In a nutshell:
The PROS:
- included Bluetooth wireless earphones (although wires exist, they can be easily placed behind your head to give you that wireless feel)
- 3 different sizes of comfortable earbuds provided for each of the 2 earphones included
- great sound quality with both the wireless and wired earphones
- great picture and video quality
- easy to navigate menu
- easy to subscribe to podcasts using the software provided
The CONS:
- can't listen to the FM radio or use the voice recorder feature when using the wireless earphones
- wireless earphones does have wires, although much shorter than the Sansa clip wires
- doesn't come with a sleeve or case (and don't think Sony makes one). I bought a case designed for a slim cell
phone and it seems to be adequate and gives me the ability to clip it to me if necessary.
- not really getting the SensMe Channels. It chose Crawling by Linkin Park to be under the Relaxing category.
- (minor) if you choose a horizontal picture for wallpaper, it displays sideways, as opposed to correcting the picture to fit upright to go with the vertical menu icon screen. So if you really want a picture to be your wallpaper, take it vertically or else it will display sideways.
I would recommend this to a friend!
