Great for cross-training
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Because of the many different earbud sizes included i was able to get the perfect fit. I love that I can use them in the pool and go strait to the bike and run with never taking them off

Great for the gym and running!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been looking at these for a while and finally decided to make the purchase. I'm so glad that I did. Took them out for a run today and they did not disappoint. I did have trouble with the Media Go software, but I was able to drag & drop after playing around with it a little. I've been raving about them all day and I would definitely recommend them.

Great Waterproof MP3 Player
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Figuring out Media Go provided with the unit once you plug it in can be trivial. Hint: It's the setup file in the Windows folder. I use iTunes and transferring music couldn't be any easier. Drag and drop files into your Walkman via Media Go. Figuring out the controls using the small buttons took some trial and error but once you get it it's awesome using the "Zapping" feature breezing through hundreds of songs for that perfect tune. I never want to risk taking my phone in the water or having something to carry for listening to music. Hands free is great! Once you understand the software and button controls you're set. The only drawback on this device is not being able to fast forward and rewind but other than that it's a great device that I use daily.

Great when it works
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome when it works, after 1 use would not turn back on. Exchanged it and this one works hit or miss. Sometime's it will be recognized by one computer, then it won't charge,then it'll mess up and just autoplay on the computer and won't be recognized at all in windows media player. Tried it on all 3 computers will same bad outcomes. Now it just won't turn on anymore and computer says device is malfunctioned. Call Sony support on the first one and they said they'd call me back. Never did. So unless you want to spend $100 on a pair of earplugs stay away.

Product quit working after second use.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went to Sony website tried the many many steps in their troubleshooting page. None of them worked. asked to return them and they would not do so. Even thought they worked from beginning, Sony rep told me ut must be my computer and not the MP3 head phones. I have never been so upset with poor customer service, DO NOT buy this product if you expect Sony to stand behind the quality and be a stand up company.

Worth the money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They were great while they lasted. Had one year warranty and one headphone stopped working 2 months after the warranty expired. Went to see if they could do anything with no luck. A couple times when I plugged it into the computer through the USB the computer wouldn't read it. But when it did work it was great. Made swimming a lot less boring.

This product is useless for its purpose
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in Miami , I have my own swimming pool at home and I swim every day. This product is useless. The sound is so low you can't hear the music with the noise of the water. It falls off continuously after a few laps, what is really annoying specially if you swim against the clock. I would not recommend it because it is not designed for high performance.

Very poor service
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My M3 Sports player worked for about 3 months, then would not charge, would not work at all. I took it back to Best Buy and they did nothing. The salesman actually said he had seen a model that quit after 10 minutes. He thought maybe the battery was bad. VERY POOR SERVICE. I could not find an address on Sony to return.

DON'T BUY IF YOU LIKE TO SWIM DAILY
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have gone through 12 sets of these headphones, they break, I swim everyday and they just do not hold up. Very disappointed. There volume issues-it just decreases for no reason, they stop charging, they stop working, etc....I would have given it zero stars if possible.

Sounds good in right ear, left ear doesn't work
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds good, constantly adjusting, I have tried other straps, and swim cap and I still can not keep this device in my ears. I cannot even focus on my swim because I am constantly adjusting and trying to get the left ear working.

Great while it worked
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item in March 2014 and it quit charging a few months later. I contacted Sony and they sent a replacement. That replacement quit charging in September 2014. It was great while it worked...won't buy another one.
