As the happy owner of a NW-Z507 (and matching Sony 1000XM4 earbuds and a more traditional WH-XB900N over-the-ear headset), the Sony Walkman lineup is worth every single dollar!

It's helped me rediscover some of my classics!

The 507 is Android, which was both a pro (more apps) and con (battery life) especially since the Sony default player is a bit special. I didn't need Android as I don't use streaming, but I wanted USB-C, and that excluded previous models like the A55.

The battery life is less of a problem than I thought it would be, as my earbuds are drained first.

However, I'm still not a fan of the Sony music player. If you want to try Sony newest Android lineup, I recommend installing the foobar music player.

If you use wired headsets and the limited battery life is a problem for you, check the 1ZM2: https://musicphotolife.com/2022/05/sony-wm1zm2-review-digita...
