Sony NWZ-A15 review

 

A good way to get into high-resolution music

Lots of detail Small size Expandable memory

Could do with better timing and greater dynamics Uninspiring design

Ultimately it comes down to this: if you want the very best in sound quality and features, the A15 isn’t what you’re looking for. But if you’re not after flashy features and merely want to dip your toe into the high-resolution water, this is a very...

Review: Sony NWZ-A15 Walkman

 

Smartphones may well be taking over the world, but not everyone wants one for dedicated music playback, and if you're just getting into the joys of high-resolution audio, Sony's new tiny media player may be just what the headphone doctor ordered.

Proprietary charge and data transfer port; No touchscreen; While it has Bluetooth, there’s no WiFi, and also no way to access music services; SenseMe channels don't let you leave the menu when you're selecting them for playback; Display can show...
