Really nice

It's really comfortable and music is phenomenal ( by my standards). And the best part is kind of becomes like that device you can depend on to not distract yourself but then will keep you entertained. You almost have no learning curve esp. if you're android user. Be careful with battery though and this thing can make you really happy.

Sony - NW-A105 Review

Kudos:

Thanks Ian my headphone guru for recommending this, Simrel and nisha great customer happiness officers.

Player review

Audio quality is very good: makes you feel all the details, I love the vinyl settings on this DAP. I bought these to put my shure aonic 50 to very good use.

I feel the volume is lower when I use the Bluetooth connection, compared to wired connection; hope Sony corrects this in their future releases.

Battery: on the first use I could get only 8 hours thru wi fi usage , as Google apps eat away the battery by trying to syncing all the time.

Once I got rid of google apps, I could get 14hours with wi fi streaming

Without streaming the battery life is 23 hours.

Apple Music, Spotify work very well, I could use the offline listening feature very well.

Audio quality: 4.5/5

Battery 4.8/5 in offline listening

Battery 4.2/5 with wi fi streaming

Hey, Thank you so much for the positive feedback! It means a lot to us. We are so happy to hear that you are loving our products and services. We hope to see you again soon. :)

Battery backup is very poor. You can't expand storage for downloading the streaming app as as card can't be formatted as Internal storage. It's got hot while playing music.i feel cheated by Sony.Its my 1st dedicated music player.i never expected such bad things. How ever music quality is awesome.

We are sorry that the product didn't match your expectations. Thank you for sharing the review, Ajit Mishra!

"Right off the bat, there’s some really nice detail in the synth sounds of the track's intro. The xylophone, the drums and the tropical themed samples tie together nicely."
