"Solid Performer"
This thing is a work horse. I've have been using it heavily for 2 years now. Same strong charge, never freezes works perfectly. Use a silicone cover!

I recommend Sony Walkman mp3 players to all my friends and clients!

"Great sound, great battery, great player."
I got this MP3 player about 2 years ago now, and it's still working as good as the day I took it out of the box. I've dropped it more times than I can remember and it's still kicking. Granted I have a nice silcon case on it, but still after two years of abuse for it to even be in one piece is amazing.I use this player everyday. Mostly to fall asleep to a book. The sound quality is excellent, and the battery life is the best of any I've ever owned. Sony rates it at about 24 hours battery life, just out of curiosity I let it play and it didn't die for well over 36 hours. I've not used this too much with video, honestly that's not what I got it for though. I mostly use it for audiobooks/music. It's very simple to load and remove songs. I ordered one of these for my dad, and he's not the most computer savvy person, and he has no problems with it. It's pretty much plug in, click, and go. The space on it is sufficient for me. I have 8 books on it at the moment(one of the books is 37 hours), as well as about 600 songs and still could fit some more.If you need a player for video, I'd opt for something more than 8gb, but for just music it's enough. The only downside I've ever found with this player is the innability to make playlists on the go. The player before this had that function and it was nice to be able to pic a playlist from my songs to fit my current mood, but that's a tiny issue. So all in all, I'd recommend this player to just about anyone.

"expensive"
i really dont understand why it costs so much on amazon. its a really good mp3 player but i wasnt willing to spend that much on it. so i bought a refurbished one. it hasnt arrived yet but i know its good because i used to have one until it got stolen. (i guess thats how good it is). but i would definently recommend this to anyone, just not for $90.00. thats outrageous. but great overall.

"Sony Walkman MP3"
All in all a very good product. Playlists are incredibly hard to make but it has very good battery life.

"Frozen after 4 months"
Having bought a lot of Sansa products in the past I decided to try a Sony instead. Unfortunately my experience with this player has not been good. After using it occasionally for the first 3 months I finally decided to load it up and listen to it while working in the garage. I put about 4Gb of music onboard and I listened for a few hours. I then brought the unit inside to charge and it never worked again. It gets stuck at the "every moment has its music" splash screen and does nothing else. I tried hard resetting the unit, and reflashing the firmware but no good. I contacted Sony's online support and they said it needed to be repaired and pointed me to the Sony warranty site. Well little did I know that the warranty on this unit only covers the parts and not labor. The warranty call is $29, and they will provide an exchange unit (it's not actually repaired). Sorry SONY but that isn't good enough. I expect to have in-warranty repairs done for free, as it appears to be down to bad flash or faulty firmware.

Folks use your favorite search engine and look up freezing issues with these units before you buy. There's a surprising amount out there and no solutions. Vote with your dollars and buy something different.
