This review is from: Sony Walkman NWZ-S638FB 8GB Drag & Drop MP4 Video Player with FM Tuner - Black (Electronics)
I've been wanting to buy an MP3 player for ages and eventually settled on this one. Very impressed with the sound quality. It is really easy to download both music and vids. I have downloaded some BBC iPlayer programmes and have found them surprisingly watchable, despite the small screen size. The menu is intuative - just as well as the getting started instructions are not brilliant.

I would have awarded 5 stars except it does not come with a protective cover and unlike iPods, getting accesseries has been really difficult (even my local Sony Centre didn't have a cover).

5.0 out of 5 stars Walkman, 8 July 2009
This review is from: Sony Walkman NWZ-S638FB 8GB Drag & Drop MP4 Video Player with FM Tuner - Black (Electronics)
When I decided to get a better MP3 player, I spent ages trying to decide whether to get an Ipod or a Walkman and reading loads and loads of reviews. I was not disappointed in choosing this one, the sound quality is very good, the screen is bright etc. This model can download programmes off BBCi, I have watched a couple and the quality is good, I didn't have any problems with the screen size although others might not like it being small. Another point that was unclear from reviews I read was about playlists - the MP3 player does have a playlist function but they have to be edited on the computer rather than on the MP3 player itself. There is an automatic sync function which I didn't like, and can be turned off by changing the setting in Windows Media under the Sync Tab. There are lots of options to personalise the Walkman according to personal preferences. I definately would reccomend this product.
