"One of the BEST"
Pros: Quality of the player, battery life, SOUND quality, file transfer, FM tuner..
Cons: nothing really
Summary: I?ve been a ipod user for about three years? last week I bought the new ipod classic but took it back due to its slow software and same old design?. Then I looked at the ipod touch but immediately said no after hearing all the problems with screen? I?ve always liked sony but hated their software? so after hearing that sony got rid of their ?software? I went to a sony store to try out these new walkmans and let me tell you, ipod?s sound quality is not even close to sony?s. Sony nwz-s618 is not as big as it looks in pictures, matter of fact it?s really tiny. Differences between nwz-A818 and nwz-S618 are that A818 comes with MDR-EX082 Headphones and S618 has a fm tuner. Headphones that come with S618 are pretty decent. A618 screen size is 2 inches comparing to S618 1.8 inches. I picked S618 because of solid look/feel and fm tuner. Transferring files are fairly easy with drag and drop (including videos & pictures) or you can also use windows media player. There?s an extra option of browsing files by folder. It?s a great player & much much better than the ipods. Only thing I would recommend is that I wish sony could add more memory?. What more can I say, I just love my walkman
