- Listening to music without needing a web connection
- Very light and easy to keep in a pocket or backpack so I have it with me when I'm out, or to listen to while I cook / do hardware repairs
- No distractions
- Physical buttons means I can replay or skip tracks without looking at it
- Doesn't drain the battery of my smartphone; doesn't need recharging each week
- Has a real working FM radio in it
- Music on my SD card doesn't disappear
- Doesn't need security updates
- Bought it in 2013 and it still works
- cube00 4y agoConsidering this new one has Android on it, your point about not needing security updates doesn't hold. If Sony is as aggressive as Google is, three years you'll have a malware magnet in addition to your smart phone.
- Tams80 4y agoMalware from where? If you're legally buying music, not there. All the apps for mauic playback, streaming, etc. come from the Google Play Store, and there are very few that someone who buys one of these would need anyway. I'd venture many of these will spend most of their existence with wi-fi turned off, as it's a battery hog.
