    • If You Are Looking For an IPod Replacement Device in the Vehicle, This is Not it!
This is the first review I have ever written so this says something. I am essentially warning potential IPod users who are looking to replace their IPod with a Sony Walkman for primarily vehicle use, to steer clear of this particular Sony product. I will start by saying that I like Sony and am biased towards them in that all of their products I have owned in the past have been superior and built to last. I will also state that I not a fan of Apple and Android equally so that I can be sure to be objective. Finally, I am somewhat of an audiophile so I like the best version of any song that I can listen to when I am driving here and there and that requires a cable connection, NOT Bluetooth, which is where my review will begin. These things being stated, I replaced my IPod with this Sony Walkman for primarily one purpose and that is to listen to my music library in my vehicle and that is about it. This may not apply to those who simply want to strictly use the device sparingly by listening to headphone music while lying around or exercising, with the exception of the battery life, which is very weak. This being stated I will give a list of the pro's and con's of each as they apply to a direct line hookup inside my Toyota Tundra truck with a factory installed Entune radio system and customized amp and speakers. The IPod Con's and Pros are: IPod Con's: 1. You cannot download music any longer through the ITunes store as it no longer exists 2. Since the store no longer exist, you cannot use the app to upload your music any longer, nor burned mp4's into the app 2. You cannot transfer FLAC formatted files to an IPod player 3. Your IPod is essentially useless now Ipod Pro's: 1. One USB connection not only charged the system, but played your music. 2. The Entune system recognized the IPod, and as such gave you album cover and song information. 3. You could use the steering wheel controls and unit controls to manipulate songs. 4. The Ipod continually stayed charged whether the truck was running or not, if charging was needed 5. By turning off your vehicle, your music didn't continue to play on the unit itself until the vehicle was restarted. 6. The boot up time was quick 7. Battery stayed at full charge over a period of years just through normal driving and listening. Now, I will discuss the pro's and Con's of the new Sony Walkman as it portends to Entune and probably a number of other factory installed head unit systems: Sony Walkman Pro's: 1. Sound quality is superb, and probably due to many of my files being recorded in the FLAC mode. Sony Walkman Con's: 1. Requires two separate cables, a 3.5 mm male to male and C-USB to USB to play and charge the Walkman with the Entune simultaneously and respectively. 2. The Entune does not recognize the Walkman accept as AUX as in auxillary. 3. Since the system is not formally recognized, you have no control of the Sony Walkman through either the steering wheel controls or the Entune system itself. You have to manually manipulate the IPod while in your car to change songs. 4. There is no ability to select random shuffle as you could with the IPod system on the Entune screen, which is a favorite of mine with the approximately 2,000 songs that I have. 5. You get no album covers or song information transmitted to the Entune unit from the Sony Walkman. 6. The Walkman only charges while the vehicle is on and in operation. 7. The Walkman does not stop playing internally and does not charge when the vehicle is off, leading to continual, though silent, playing and a very quickly dissipating battery. 8. The Sony Walkman battery life, as mentioned previously, is its weakest link and recharging times are not good. I believe it took me about 4 hours to go from 25% to 100% and that was with continual USB cable charging from my laptop which is pretty unacceptable. 9. What can I say, the Android operating system is a bad setup for a music platform, with boot up times probably 4 times or more longer than it took the IPod to boot up. 10. Since this is an Android based system, they include all of the junk apps and files typically contained on an Android phone that really have nothing to do with playing music. I have a separate phone just for that purpose and this unit was to strictly be for music. 11. Referring to number 9, you get repetitive and super annoying pop-ups every time the system boots up which have to be acknowledged before music starts playing. If your like me, and your IPod stays underneath the seat in your vehicle, this would require manually pulling it out each and every time you start the vehicle to manually turn it on and then manually turning the Sony Walkman off every time you finish your drive. Having said all this, the solution might be a new $1,000 plus head unit but that is not why I bought the Walkman. Installation fees for a new unit are not cheap either. Add in the time researching a possible unit that may be able to utilize the Sony Walkman with all the perks that were automatically included with the IPod-Entune connection would be a total waste of hours and hours of research and would still not answer the question about the Android unit pop-ups being a complete and total nuisance. I will stick with Sony products in general but essentially threw away $375 on a unit that does not even come close to the IPod with respect to functionality. At 3-4 times the price of an IPod touch, Sony has a long way to go to improve the Walkman for current and conventional use, that is unless you are a one dimensional person planning to use it only sparingly and for short periods of time at the gym, pool, or lying around the house with headphones. UPDATE: After doing copious amounts of research, the Sony Walkman NW-A105 will not even allow you to install Android Auto, apparently the app that gives it functionality with after market head units if you have an older factory unit. I contacted Sony and let them know in a firm way that I believe this to be a non-starter in the way of sales. Seems they all, Apple and Google, want you to do all this stuff on your phone, which I will certainly never do as the music quality is not there. ... show more

Wow the sound quality is beyond amazing, better than my samsung or iPad. Wow I love it worth the money. Is touch screen, light and easy to carry around. I had zero problems setting up my Google account and my pandora app. Wow wow, I am a happy customer with my Sony Walkman. The storage space is more then enough to store all my music. You can even play YouTube. I'm impressed. I purchased the Sony wireless headphones and the sounds is nothing but beautiful. If your into music do yourself a favor and buy yourself this little guy. I promise you will be just as happy as I am . 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 ... show more

    • Don't support Sony anymore - HORRIBLE tech support
The worst part of this player is their "tech support". They're low level 'technicians' that are basically checklist monkeys. Their job is to follow a flowchart made by some mid-level manager whose real purpose is to do anything to deny there is a problem. I am saying this as an ENGINEER who has written software and created the hardware itself to devices similar to this. Their 'tech support' will find any little detail to avoid taking responsibility... did you connect it to a Sony headphone, did you connect it to a Sony car stereo, did you use the Sony software to load music onto the SD card? Sony's tech support is so bad that I've returned FOUR (4) Sony NW-A55s and ultimately I gave up on them because of software flaws they deny exist yet I can reproduce every time. The last thing they say is that "you're the only one reporting this", which is their excuse to file it away as essentially a delusional customer report rather than them using it to do their own internal testing to replicate the problem. They are relying on the customer to be an un-paid beta-tester or QA department. This is a horrible practice done by many technology companies where you work for them. Back to the NW-A105... I'm on my SECOND device. The first device had the exact same problem yet Sony continues to deny it. They will make you jump through every hoop imaginable to see if there is some way for them to pretend the problem doesn't exist. In my case, the problem is that the device will not work with a Line In device if you start by using headphones first, then connect it to analog 3.5mm Line In on a car stereo. 2 other devices made by Samsung and Apple do not have this problem on this same car stereo but the Sony NW-A105 has this problem every single time. If you restart the device (which you should never have to do, and it takes forever), then it works, indicating that this is a software flaw. Most devices persistently check the 3.5mm jack for voltage and impedance properties to output the proper line or headphone level voltage based on the impendence of the connected audio output device. Laptops, cell phones, tablets, etc. all do the same thing to detect how much voltage they should output. Well, not the Sony NW-105, unless you restart it, which is a software defect that Sony needs to fix. So GOOD LUCK getting these horrible tech support people to get their engineering people to fix problems. Furthermore, they will have you talk to different technicians all of which make you waste over an hour repeating the same thing over and over, across multiple phone calls, to find out that all the prior people you speak to do not annotate things properly in the notes. The device itself is beautiful. The LCD screen is very nice compared to inferior Chinese competitors. The only thing better than Sony's LCD are Apple's iPod Classic and iPod nano displays which are very bright, with excellent viewing angles, and excellent color. Other competitors such as Fiio are vastly inferior by comparison. The touchscreen is nice. The physical device size and buttons are a dream... compared to other players I've tried, it's much smaller, lighter, and a beautiful piece of engineering. Besides the original iPods with a thumbwheel, it's the only player that can be used without looking at it or touching the touchscreen. This is a big deal if you run outdoors. You can't really screw with a touchscreen interface. If you run outdoors and it's raining, snowing, or just humid, most devices are worthless, but not the NW-A105 (and A55) because they actually have hardware buttons. I can even manipulate the buttons using thing gloves. I love that it runs Android. Their older model (A55) does not run Android but instead a Sony proprietary OS which is fine except that it doesn't process larger data sets (and Sony refuses to acknowledge this problem). Android doesn't seem to have such limitations with the A105. Sony has their own player software that runs on Android (the same as the A55 actually), which works very well. But, since it's Android you can also use any number of other software players like VLC, Media Monkey, Pi Music player, etc. This is brilliant because you are not limited to the music formats that Sony officially supports, which does not include open source industry standards such as OGG. So, using Android as the base OS and having the ability to load any software on it makes a super-versatile player. Battery life sucks. It's a small device, with a small battery (so was the A55, which is physically the same size). If you turn of Bluetooth, Wifi, turn ON Android's battery saving function, and keep the screen very dim, you can stretch battery life quite a bit. But battery life can be as horrible as 2 hrs under normal circumstances. Also, if you use *any* audio software to process your music collection (mine is 200GB on a 256GB SD card), it will take hours sometimes. So it must be plugged in or it will kill the battery in no time. I must stress that despite this device's small size, it's a full Android OS computer, so it requires more management on the users' behalf to get acceptable battery usage times from it. So, the player is very nice. Android is nice. But expect major problems with Sony as a company. They will dismiss your claims and deny there's a problem, just like car manufacturers do. Expect them to waste your time. They *could* just take your report and work overtime to isolate the problem themselves, but instead they will waste your time and use you as an unpaid employee of Sony. Their policies are horrible. Also, expect them to use nuclear options such as restoring the device to factory state, which will consume hours of your time to get settings back to where you want them (it takes hours to read song collections initially). I've now returned FIVE Sony devices because they consistently have the same problems that Sony denies. It's too bad because they have probably the best, or second best product, but their support of it is horrible. Typical Sony. Their engineering department is awesome. The rest of the company sucks and is a huge liability to the hard work of the engineers. Let's see what happens in a couple weeks... will they again say it's a hardware defect, have me return it (more time), get another one, set it up, only to find the exact same problem again (more time)? ... show more
