Sammanfattning: Will start right off the bat saying i asked Sony for review samples and at first they agreed to send the NWZ-A17, and soon afterwards came excuses and delays. They did offer me other bits such as their headphone products and headphone amplification, yet t...

Superb sound with lossless and high res, Lovely build quality, Good integration with streaming services

Expensive, High-res music isn't easy to get

22 hour battery life, Incredible sound quality for 24-bit tracks, Still manages to have a good soundstage on compressed tracks
Asking price is steep, Older Android 4.1.1 with some underwhelming specs means that UI transitions are sluggish, Proprietary charging cable could spell trouble if you lose it
Sony's NWZ-ZX1 is a great buy for an audiophile who wants a full-featured, high-capacity, dedicated portable media player that can play 24-bit audio files...
