    This MP3 player is awesome! 4gb is plenty space for workouts, runs, etc. The ease of use is great and it accepts almost all formats! Sound quality is wonderful as well. Nothing but good things to say about this product!

    These are easy to use, super comfortable, secure and are an mp3. No loose wires, which was main concern. Great for working out, block out all background noise.

    I am very happy with the headphones. It was super easy to add music to them. They fit great and the charger that they come with make it easy to charge without having cords that wiggle around in power ports.

    Snug and comfortable fit. These aren't noise cancelling but they do block out a lot of outside noise. Sound quality is pretty good. Controls are easily accessible even when running.

    I wanted a wireless headset for running and working out that I could use with my phone. I bought this instead because you don't have to carry your phone or anything else with you to listed to music. It fits comfortably and stays on my head even while running. The sound quality is excellent and it can even be used while swimming - although I haven't tried that yet. Great product at a good price.

    Waterproof Music!

    OK, Sony does it again. This is a great music device. I have used it now several times in the gulf. It says for fresh water only, but I rinse it off after use. I feel like it will last several summers. It is well made., Comfortable. Most importantly it sounds great. Real “in your head” stereo mix like only headphones can do. Since you can’t swap out the head phones Sony was smart enough to put some in that sound great. I use MP3 files (312) and wav files. It works perfect with Windows Media Player. I use shuffle sync, works flawless. It is also a perfect unit for yard work, walking, bed, etc because NO WIRES. I tried a Blue tooth head set once, and wires are wires, they get in the way. Plus the blue tooth walkman had “line of site” issues (don’t turn your head!) Battery life so far no issues. It is in the ear, so if you need to hear any outside sounds you will need to turn it down, Noise canceling for sure. Best Buy had this thing at my door 4 days after I ordered it.

    I needed an MP3 player I could use while swimming. This Walkman is awesome. It allows me to enjoy my swimming workout without being bored counting laps. Easy to use if you follow the tutorial by Sony.

    I puchased a pair of these over a year ago and loved them. I enjoy the handsfree. I am able to run, workout, bike etc without having to adjust on my ears. I let my dauther borrow them and she never returned them..lol...hence me having to purchase another pair. These are water proof a new plus...I would purchase these over and over again and as a gift. The only con for me is that loading the music for this pair was a little different and I spent a little too much time ( im impantient) figuring it out. :)

    Not The Greatest Sound

    I'm not a fan of earbud headphones, they never seem to stay in place or the cords get in the way when lifting weights or leaning over doing other exercises or they get tangled up in my gym bag. So I decided to give this Sony Earbud MP3 a try because it's wireless. They come with several pairs of different size earbud's so you can see which size fits your ear comfortably. Well after trying several different sizes over several days I found ones that fit comfortably. The BIG THING I CAN'T STAND when wearing any inside the ear headphones is the background noises, example: chewing gum, walking, jogging and hearing yourself talk when conversing with someone else. As you read this review stick a finger in each ear and start chewing or just talking and you'll understand what I mean, It's crazy how the heck can anyone enjoy listening to music this way? I've always worn " Behind The Neck" Earphones that fit over the outside of the ear and NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. So in conclusion if you don't mind hearing yourself chew gum or walking then by all means have at it with this MP3. I'm going back to my Over the Ear Headphones.

    Difficult to turn the button on/off. The volumn is too soft, even at the max, but the sound is great. Difficulty sitting on the ear, especially if you are trying to speed swim.

    It took a bit to get music on these from a Mac, but I finally did it. The sound is pretty decent in the water, much better than no music. Still working on for and getting them just right but for the most part work well.
