Indulge in rich audio where you can hear your music in crystal clear clarity. Take in guitar strumming, crisp cymbal clashes and deep pounding bass as detail lost during file compression are now beautifully restored. The built-in X-Fi technology intelligently moves a conventional left/right earphone stereo source away from your ears, virtually expanding it for an audio experience with a breathtakingly realistic depth of field. You'll feel as if you were listening to your music from a pair of high end speakers. Less

Sony A815 review

byyukichan Mar 29, 2008

Pros great built and audio quality
Cons lack of user interface customization and horrible blister pack
Recommended it? Yes

Many music players exist on the market, but most of the flash based units out have build quality issues or sound quality issues. Does Sony live up to their heritage of quality goods or is it another flash player in an over saturated market that does not perform, read and find out.

Cons There are no cons for this device.
Recommended it? Yes

I have to admit, I LOVE this mp3 player.

Cons SD Integration.<br> Non-replaceable battery

I've had good experiences so far with Creative products and the Zen X-Fi did not disappoint.

Creative in recent times have put their foot off the accelerator with their last "big thing" being the Zen Vision:M.

Pros none
Cons does not work coming fresh out of the box
Recommended it? No

I ordered this product from Amazon.com since there are no stores that carry the item and Creative Labs do not sell directly.  After waiting more than a week (free super saver shipping takes that long) I finally recieve the media player and discover that it is completely dead. Will not charge... Read full review »
