ATRAC Advanced Lossless support. DSEE and Clear Audio technologies added. [44]Both models have their short term confidentiality ending on March 27th 2023, and their certification valid from March 31, 2023. So whether this means that both can only go on sale after this date, then we would be looking at an announcement in early 2023. But I hope this is not the case. There is mention of "Qualcomm® Radio Control Toolkit v4.0" for Bluetooth testing, so if this new model is using a Qualcomm chip is unknown but the previous Sony Walkmans used a Murata 1PJ, which employed a Qualcomm chip in it, so we may have a similar situation here. I bought it because I'm a fan of Sony and wanted the quality, features, reliability and build quality that you'd expect of a Sony product.

If there were to be only one complaint for the NW-A100, it was poor/mediocre battery life. Well Sony has listened and delivered vastly improved battery life all around. Even with the higher price of the new model, just for the battery life, this is worth it. Sony Gives The Walkman A Series Another Generation". Sony Insider. Archived from the original on 2019-12-16 .

Announced August 2007, the NW-810 hardware wise is the same as NW-A800 but introduces some substantial changes in its media manager software for the international market. The player was the first flagship to eliminate the need of Sony's proprietary SonicStage program, introducing a drag and drop feature to transfer media instead as well as native Windows Media Player support. It also no longer supports Sony's ATRAC format. [19] Sony called the A810 as being built on an "open platform" and promoted it. [20] It was also the first video-enabled Walkman in the U.S. market.

First A Series player running Android OS software. WM-PORT terminal replaced with USB Type C. No FM radio, SensMe, or Japanese ATRAC support. The Bluetooth version is 5.0 as I initially reported in the first post, and for those wondering about NFC, it is absent. Bluetooth codec support will include SBC, AAC, LDAC, aptX and aptX HD. Since we only have BT 5.0, there will be no LE Audio or LC3 codec support. Could Sony add it in the future? Unlikely as the Qualcomm QCS2290 is only certified for 5.0.The Sony NW-A800 series was the first video-enabled Network Walkman. [15] Announced on March 1, 2007, [16] this series has a metallic build.

From there, it can be run in any situation with any PC ( that has JAVA installed, that is ). It has a basic set of functions that can be customised to suit the layout of the sources of audio files on your computer. Just copying files onto the player will not work, because the player uses it's internal database to manage files. JSymphonic writes to and reads that database, enabling the player to know what's what. The battery capacity has not changed from the ZX507, both have the same 1500mAh 3.7V battery.
