I use an Ipod nano 4th gen and an Xperia E1* (walkman edition) as jean's watch pocket size DAPs (+ an 1st gen shuffle) but I will buy this Mechen just for a try (and it's a way to support you via affilation links progam). *Bought this month new old stock with a bundled Sony headphone for 40€.

Another ipod nano/shuffle killer would be the sony walkman Nwz-B183f, really good little stick player!

@@sjm4306 probably because of the hype behind persona 3 reload, since the NW-20x series walkmans are hard to find now, everyone is trying to find the next stick walkmans that look similar Makoto Yuki's, or any sort of walkman sticks really, these things are really fun to collect, the NW-MS77DR is a very interesting device, and very persona 3 esque for all the persona fans out there.

Mine lasted about a year and a half. Headphone jack issues. First the FM antenna connection within the jack failed, next the right channel. Trying to figure out how to take the case apart to see if I can repair it.

The rear glass is adhered to the metal frame with adhesive very similar to most modern phones. You'll need some sort of hot pad/plate/air gun to get the adhesive ware enough to separate the glass enough to slice the glue with a blade. Like I said the process will be pretty much identical to taking the back off a glass smart phone.

@@sjm4306 Ok I contact customer support and turns out I'm an idiot. I didn't re-edit the song title within the MP3 to have the number first to set the playlist in my prfered order. Another one I decided to copy and past the album again to a new folder to fixed it (number 1 was out of order). That aside, comparing it to my previous Ipod Nano (recently died on me), it's a downgrade for me! Didn't realise I missed having higher resolution on the screen (cover look pixelated or blurry) which has no inner light so good luck look at it in broad daylight! While I know it is "slim and lightweight" but it's bulky compared to the actual slim and lightweight that is the Ipod Nano! Highsight I should of bought a preowned version than getting this!

@@sjm4306 Well I didn't get one "for now" cos I'm abit paranoid. As in the chances of getting malware from a preowned version. That being said, I assume that risk is super slim and from Ebay, it should be fine especially from a Business seller? Just spotted a cheap one from a person but I asssume he/ she is ok? Just from the Ebay rating, it's posistive from what the person has bought than had sell.

Long review with not much talk about the audio quality.. So what’s the acidic quality like on your Sony headphones..
@sjm43063 ай бұрын
Audio quality over bluetooth is a moot point, digital audio is digital right up to the dac output inside the headphones so I'd just be reviewing my xm3's.
I'm in north america. I do have a quick question before we assume it's the unit, are you sure the disc is recorded in standard sp mode? Original md players can only play sp discs but if you put an mdlp sp2 or sp4 disc in them it will look like they are playing but no audio will come out.
