Good: Individual Bass Setting

Bad: No Gapless Playback

Comment: Just purchased this player only to find out sony have dropped ATRAC codec (only in europe I believe) which allowed gapless play. Being a big fan of compilations I found this very disapointing not being able to listen to one song mix into another. Never the less, I plugged it in, ripped some tunes and the sound quality was amazing! The standard heaphones are great and there is no need to upgrade! Bluetooth can be long winded to end or pair. Why no ATRAC or line out SONY?

Good: Excellent sound and picture quality

Bad: Problems with converting video files

Comment: This product is now under £200. Sony say they don't bundle the bluetooth headset to keep the price down. Try any video converter to convert the files, it is free and easy to use.
