These are very nice! I've been using them for about 4 months training for a marathon and haven't had a problem. They fit snug in your ears and don't fall out. The sound quality is great! I haven't used them swimming yet but I will this winter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Almost perfect

I love not having a headphone wire get caught on everything and it's easy to use. I'm not seeing 10 hours battery life but no biggie. I have had it not recognized by my PC but I just reset it and it works fine. Fortunately I don't lose everything when I've done that. The one improvement that would be helpful is making the strap a little longer. I have a lot of really long hair and when I have it restrained the headband on the player is to tight causing it to pull my ears or come out of my ears.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Do not last

I am on my third player. When it works it is a great product. This last player lost sound in the left ear shortly came back and now the switch does not work. Had this one around 9 months. The other two lasted a little longer.
It is too bad because I like the product because it does not require any wires.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi PlutoSaturnJim, We do appreciate providing us these feed backs for the betterment of our product. We will pass this to the proper department. Thank you for your time.
I bought these back in December, and I charge them for an hour and a half - like the instructions say to. I swapped out the ear buds for the waterproof ones so I can wear them while swimming - like the instructions say to. The battery never lasts very long, the last time I charged then went swimming same day and it didn't even last 2 full songs before it died. I'm taking these back and looking for something different. I am charging again in hopes of hearing a couple of songs today, but I have very low expectations. Overall - very unhappy with the product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love these headphones (while they work)
on June 15, 2015

I'm on my third pair of Sony mp3 waterproof walkmans. Headphones perform great at the gym- no wires to compromise your workout, and a cool novelty to swim with (freshwater only) as well. However, my first pair started acting up after about 6 months of near daily use. The volume would slowly decrease as it was playing to the point of being mute. Pressing the volume up button would only temporarily resolve this. My second pair worked fine until they were smashed in a biking accident w a minivan, and my current (third) pair, about 7 months old, are starting to do same thing as first pair. I've tried resetting them, but yo no avail. If they were cheaper, or if they lasted longer, I would give them a 10 out of 10.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor design

I have not been able to turn the Sony Sports MP3 Player on. A friend got it to play one time by chance. An on/off button, and not a pressure point, would work much better. I cannot tell if it is charged or not. I swim virtually every day, and this purchase has been a big disappointment ! I usually really like Sony products.

Hello Karolina! We would like to apologize for not meeting your expectations and would like to recommend to try the steps available through the links below to solve the issue you have described with the power. In order to detect if that unit requires to be charged the OPR LAMP will be flashing rapidly in red to indicate that it needs to be connected to a computer for charging purposes, when this happens make sure to check that the computer recognizes your Walkman after you have connected it to the computer for about 5 minutes otherwise it will not charged properly.
