Fits anywhere

byjackhammer12 Aug 25, 2002
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Compact. Nice shape. Clear sound with more than a "one note" megabass.
Cons Buttons hard to use without looking. Volume control easy to move accidently.
Recommended it? Yes

Drops in my shirt pocket when commuting or straps
on during workouts. This baby is a definite improvement
over my last walkman (Sony WM-FX271) which was quite
bulky (played cassettes). Lots of presets (18) and a
clock/stopwatch besides. The EQ depends on which earphones you... Read full review »

Pros belt clip. preset radio buttons.
Cons headphone jack malfunctions. headphones uncomfortable. headphone cord too short.
Recommended it? No

I have had the Walkman radio about one year. I use it in the gym to listen to TV with FM broadcast inside the gym. The reception is poor compared to other radios I have tried. I changed to a different headset because the ones that came with it were uncomfortable. Finally, the headphone jack started... Read full review »

I use this for House work!

bytrazomfreak Jun 4, 2005
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Compact, clear sound, timer functions, TV station, neat design, water resistant.
Cons Volume dial, weather station, armband loosens sometimes.
Recommended it? Yes

This is a neat radio. I'm not really a runner but I use this all the time for house chores or outside work. It stays out of the way when I do homework/paperwork. And when I don't want the volume too loud for the rest of the house, I use it to watch TV with. I have confidence when using it to wash... Read full review »

Fun Radio

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros TV band. Easily programmable. Shape fits in your hand. Belt clip.
Cons Weather band is dumb, but no Cons to report.
Recommended it? Yes

I got this radio to listen to on the train while I commute. It has 2 banks of FM presets, so I have one bank for the first part of my journey (the mountains) and the 2nd bank for the end half. It would be ideal to be able to get all of my stations all of the time but sometimes topography rules. I... Read full review »

Not very impressed

bysfluellen Sep 9, 2003
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Lightweight
Cons Poor reception, improperly placed buttons
Recommended it? No

I have started running and was interested in finding a small radio to bring on my runs. I tried this one out from the local store and was very disappointed. The reception for me was horrible. Stations that I could get clearly on my car radio were barely audible above the static in the headphones. I... Read full review »

Inconsistency Plagues This Little Radio

byalfortenberry Mar 21, 2003
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Small, easy to wear, easy to use
Cons inconsistent performance and reception, cost, uncomfortable headphones
Recommended it? Yes

Sony -- it is a name everyone equates with top of the line electronics. After paying a hefty price tag of almost $50, I quite honestly expected better performance from this radio. The performance has been pretty inconsistent, with radio reception clearing only when it wants to... or so it seems... Read full review »

Pretty great, but not perfect

bycandringa Jun 6, 2003
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Size, sound quality, ease of use
Cons Volume position, arm band, cost
Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased this to use for mowing the lawn, biking, jogging, etc. Overall I am happy with it. The arm band is a little different to get used to. I think I would have designed it a little differently with just an elastic velcro band.

Also why they didn't make the volume digital I... Read full review »

Boo on Sony! Where's the Weatherband??

bybobmat Feb 15, 2003
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great arm band and styling.
Cons Cannot receive Weatherband as advertised!
Recommended it? No

Read the above reviews to see the usual pros/cons.
My wife paid $50 for this radio specifically because I asked for a Weatherband radio. However, the unit uses the same circuitry to receive Weatherband as for Stereo FM. The bandwidth of Weatherband is 1/10 that of Stereo FM. Consequenty, the... Read full review »

Cons Poor reception; headset intermittent after 6 months use; high price; low...
Recommended it? No

I bought this unit for daily use on a stationary exercise bike. It has very poor reception for even local FM stations. After less than six months of use the headset has an intermittent short in left stereo channel. I paid more for the Sony name and was disappointed with the quality and reliability...

Pros Light. Great reception. Easy to use. Locking mechanism. Water-resistant body.
Cons Headphones...but what do you expect?
Recommended it? Yes

Purchased to replace a prior Sony device - a radio/cassette player - this radio was a revelation and a wonder to me. I use it when running, and it is great!

True story: I set the radio up as soon as I got it home. I put the first preset on a jazz station I like, and reception was perfect... Read full review »
