Product Profile

NWZ-S639FBLK 5 5 2 2
Great sounding unit First of all, I have an Ipod family (including myself only since my car has an ipod dock). This is an honest review. I have an Ipod Touch for the WiFi and other features. I also have a Nano and Ipod Video n the family. I needed something for the gym and chose this unit since it is not as flimsy as the new Ipod Nano, and the sound blows the Nano away. I also have a Zune HD but the killer to that is the SW - it is just horrible. The best part of this unit is the price ($64.95 from sony), the drag and drop of the files from music, videos, to photos and more. The sound customizations was the winner for me. This just sounds so much better than any of the 3 ipods or Zune HD in my family. I did test all with the same song and same headset. The only con of this unit is the Sony proprietary cable. I know Ipods have there own cable also, but they are easily available anywhere - like $1-2 each. Will look into some of Sony's newer models as well. January 14, 2010
