Super bright OLED display

The X Series Walkman® features a 3 inch OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) touchscreen. Displaying your video at 10,000:1 contrast and in true to life colours, you can expect super bright image playback, faster response times, wider viewing angles and startlingly high contrast. With its thinness, lightness and energy saving potential, the X Series also has a longer battery life for hours of uninterrupted playback.

Studio quality MP3 player in-ear monitor headphones

Studio quality in-ear sound

Based on the same technology in professional grade monitor models, EX headphones offer studio quality in-ear sound, total comfort and an easy fit with the least sound leakage. Supplied as standard with some Walkman® models, and available to buy separately, the EX headphones range combines fashion and style with high-end audio for a superior listening experience.

Enhanced MP3 sound quality

Built-in to Walkman® players, Sony Clear Audio Technologies work together to reproduce your music in superb quality. Clear Stereo prevents audio signals leaking from one channel to another. Clear Bass uses ATL (Automatic Level Control) to reproduce rich low frequencies. DSEE restores high frequencies lost due to compression. And our EX headphones ensure no loss of audio quality during playback.

Experience the cleanest sound around

FM for more listening choice Where other MP3 players need a bolt-on device, Walkman® players in the range feature built-in FM radio for more music variety. Integrating an FM tuner makes it easy to search for your favourite shows, and listen back in great sound quality. Choose a player with FM radio
