Digital camera reviews of Sony Walkman X Series 32 GB Video MP3 Player with OLED Display
Digital camera Review: 0 Problems
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this player after reading every review on amazon and looking at all the other potential brands. First off the reason I wanted a potable music player. I have around 700+ CD's that I own that reside in my two 400 disc CD changer's in my home system. All these CD's have also been ripped into Window's Media Player on my laptop which runs on Vista 64bit. The format I ripped them with is WMA. I-Pod's don't support the WMA format. So that ruled out I-Pods right off the bat along with the fact that a friend of mine horror story of how I-Tunes crashed their new Vista run Laptop to the point it had to be sent back to the manufacture. So that didn't leave me with many option. I want all my music which is about 28GB's on a single small portable player. I really like Sony products in general I have all ways had good luck with them. So I went with this player. I wish they offered one with more memory because after it is formatted and I loaded it with my music it only has about 1.5GB's left.
Alot of people have complained about the uploading process and how it didn't work or whatever.
I took another reviewers advice and did not use the software disc that came with the player.
If you run some form a Windows and have the current version of Windows Media Player I think its 11 your fine. If you don't have the current version of WMP the included disc comes with it and you just have to download it off the disc. Also a very important thing I learned from the same reviewer is that the player lists the artist as the person listed in the contributing artist field of WMP. So I went through my entire music collection on WMP and about 70% were fine but almost all rap CD's had to be changed. You have to put the Name of the artist as the first name in the contributiing artist field for every song. If you don't when doing a search on the player by artist you will have names of people you didn't know you owned because their name was listed first in the field and when you click on their name it will only show the song their listed first on which may only be one or more.
When you first plug in the player into the computer the computer recognizes it and asks you to format it or sync it or something DON'T DO THAT. Hit cancel or no or whatever. Then all you have to do is open WMP and on the top right click on the Sync tab highlight the Walkman tab and then click the Start Sync tab. That's it. It took mine a very long time to do this first Sync about 10 hours. But I had 28Gigs worth of music. Since then I have made some changes to artwork and Genre info to my liking for some of my CD's. I have also added several new CD's and it only takes any where from less than a minute to a couple of minutes to Sync. Everyhting is on the player all artwork song names artist everything made it first try with no problems. Even the small percentage of my music which is from burned CD's that I got from other people that I ripped into WMP transfered right to the player no problem artwork song names everything. As long as you see it in WMP you will see it in the player. I have read alot of reviews of pretty much every other brands players that don't do that.
Video is not important to me so I have yet to try that on this player.
Slacker works great on this player and provides art work and artist bio's.
The touch screen works great.
The touch screen looks amazing it looks like HD.
The wireless internet search engine works fine.
Music quality is astounding and has a full customizable eq. with several presets and two personallized ones.
As a portable music player I think the Sony Walkman X Series is outstanding.
