The new Sony NWZ-W202



Finally bought the new sony music player in Ion Orchard (top floor is like deserted) pratically no one go up to the upper-floor stores to buy stuffs, well, who will when all are designer watches, clothings and stuffs ( I wonder how they pay their expensive rents).

All the action is actually at the basement, down there its filled with horde of hungry ghouls hunting for foods.

Okay enough of my vajajay monolouge.

Here's the story, Chris and I suppose to buy this long time ago at the Comex fair in Suntec City.

Unfortunately, it sold out ! all the five colors are out of stocks.

going at special price for only $99 each if you buy 2 sets ; who wouldn't buy it? ( usual retail price is $129)

PS: even my maid wanna buy it lol even though she don't know what is it.

Basically, it is a wearable music player that attached to the ears without the hassle of the dangling wires dangling everywhere. See why I put music player? It is a digital music player that can play AAC, Mp3, WMA, protected WMA format. In lay man terms, that means you can rip music from the disc directly to this player.




The good thing about this player is that it is wearable (spelled 'wire-less') and is suitable for sports jocks who love to work out, running or other sports actitivities. I try to wear it and jump around, and it did not fell off.

Furtheremore, this 2GB music player has special features such as Zappin mode ......er at first I don't even know what that is. It is actually a jog dial that enable you to play back songs. Er..whatever that means. I did try to press the button though, its like playing the song for a few seconds and jump to the next one. In short, its like compilation of your total songs.

Finally, it has shuffle mode, weigh only a mere 35 g and has a battery lifespan up to 12 hours.




Here comes the bad thing, it may not fit comfortably for some people. If your ear lobes hole very small, then its very hard to insert in. Too bad if you have small hole....LOL. Er..that sounds wrong.

In addition, rumour has it that it is not sweat proof or water proof. Some issues has been raised in the internet of how this player kena your gazillion of salty working out's sweat and then spoilt.



Verdict: After trying out for some time, its really amazing and good stuff ! I wear it out in the streets andMRT and all eyes on me.....I don't know whats there to stare at. Furthermore, this is definitely suitable for sports people to enjoy music whilst running or jogging without worrying the old long wires. The criticism about this music player is that it may not fit comfortably for some people. So make sure you try on the display set before making purchase.

Now say bye-bye to wires ! I award this mystical music player a score of 3.5/5



NWZ-W202 is available islandwide, going retail at $129 and comes with five different colors to choose from.

Music player has never been so ingenious ~

PS: Sorry Chris, I bought this first ! hehe....see you this friday buddy ~
