Review: Hardware i good, software is full Android operating software baked in. - The Sony NW-A105 comes with a full Android operating software baked in, it works just like app-heavy Android smartphone. Which is exactly what I wanted to get away from when looking for an iPhone alternative with a dedicated music player. The hardware is very good. The quality of the sound is better than iPhone 14. We can add SD card to the player: we can substantially extend the storage. No need to buy expensive version with more internal storage. The supplied Music Centre software intended to manage the player content is not efficient. It was not possible to create playlist in a normal way: usually we select the tracks. drop it in the list folder. It is not working this way. A way to solve this issue: In iTunes artists are arranged as folders: using Windows Explorer I dropped the files made by iTunes in the SD card Music folder. Or in the internal storage Music folder. When playing ,select a folder you want (artist) from the playing menu, start the first track - it will play all tracks in artist folder , in the sequence made by iTunes. So, no need to create Playlist- arrange a folder, drop inside what you want. Seems Sony limited the charging current to be safer for the device, but it is taking long time to charge. Probably was possible to make the device with larger screen, larger battery, longer playing time. My fingers are normal, but still I need to be very careful how I hit the buttons. The larger screen should be better. As a music player it is really good. I tried with several different high end Hi-Res Audio headphones: works fine. Can adjust the volume and the sound is really good.
Review: Idealer Begleiter - Da ich mit der Audio Qualität von meinem Oppo Find X3 Pro nicht zufrieden war (im Vergleich zum Galaxy S21 Ultra, welches mir gestohlen wurde) wollte ich einen vernünftigen Audio Player. Ich höre hauptsächlich mit den Sony WF-1000XM4 und bin sehr begeistert von der Kombi. Ich nutze den Walkman mit Direct Sound, also keine zusätzliche Klangeinstellungen. Das gibt für mich das beste, weil neutralste Klangbild. Damit spielt der Player sehr Detail reich, laut genug ohne zu übertreiben., Natürlich vorausgesetzt die orginal Aufnahme und das Wiedergabeformat geben es auch her. Die Bedienung ist gelungen, klar gibt es immer was zu verbessern aber die Tatsache das es eben auch Druckschalter für die wichtigsten Befehle und eine Sperre gibt, ist super gelöst. Bluetooth einwandfrei auch über eine längere Distanz (10-15 Meter mehr habe ich jetzt gar nicht getestet). Android funktioniert gut, eben auch desertcart Music, auch mit Downlaod für Offline. Einzig die Startzeit ist ein wenig lang. Aber das ist, denke ich dem Android OS und schwachen Prozessor geschuldet. Ist aber noch erträglich. Akkudauer geht ok, also bis jetzt war ich immer nur so 3-4 Stunden am Stück unterwegs, kann es also nicht letztendlich beurteilen. Aber alles in allem, kann ich den Walkman nur empfehlen wenn man Musik genießen will und mit seinem Handy nicht 100% zufrieden ist.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I want to connect to my home audio receiver.  Is wireless the only way to connect or can it be connected directly with an audio cable?**
A: I use a aux cable to connect it to my car stereo. The player has a 3.5 audio Jack, so I imagine if the cable your using fits that, it should work.

**Q: Hi, can it play Spotify? Thanks**
A: Yes.  It has android so you can download from the app store

**Q: Its the charger/ transfer cable included in the box ?Also how do you transfer your music from your computer to this device ? Needs a special software?**
A: There is a cable to charge. The same cable can be used to transfer files from computer to the device. Drag and drop

**Q: Has anyone successfully used a 1tb sd card with this unit?**
A: I considered it but then decided it was way more than I needed and didn't want to shell out $168 for a 1 TB card.  I got a 256 GB card and it works just fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Qualité du son
*by J***N on 4 March 2020*

Possesseur d'un portable Sony XZ3, je me demandais si ça valait le coup de mettre un tel prix dans un Walkman qui a des modes et ampli de son identique à se modèle hormis de pouvoir lire des fichiers DSD, et bien... Quel surprise, la qualité de son est vraiment encore 10 x mieux, quel précision, quel puissance, musicalité, j'étais scotché pourtant la qualité de son de mon XZ3 est déjà vraiment surprenantes sur un casque, mais la c'est un autre monde, en plus ont peu y mettre tout ce qui existe comme type de fichiers de son, les DSD donc en haute résolution c'est juste bluffant, je suis en train de tout numériser mes CD en fichier FLAC, du coup il ne s'abîmeront plus, j'ai prit une carte de 256 go pas cher sur Amazon qui fait le taf et bien sûr la coque transparente qui va bien sur ce même site et adapter à mon modèle le nwa105, indispensable pour le protéger, c'est un vrai bijou, tout en métal, je l'est prit en rouge pour changer, magnifique ! Je l'utilise avec un Sony WH-1000XM3, et un bowers and wilkins P7 une tuerie, contrairement à un autre commentaire, le son avec le WH-1000XM3 est juste merveilleux, il se plaignait de pas pouvoir accéder au réglages du casque sur le Walkman, mais il suffit de mettre l'application du casque sur le nwa105.... qui a le WiFi et l'accès évidement au play store, et ont peu y mettre toutes les appli que vous voudrez, l'alliance de ce Walkman et du casque de Sony donne un résultat absolument fou, si vous le pouvez, foncer !
