It's hard to imagine that people do not have a smartphone, but Sony is trying to reintroduce that good old walkman in a new jacket. Sony announced the Android Walkman NW-ZX700 and NW-A300 series.



The operating system is powered by Android 12.0 and supports streaming playback. Furthermore, by implementing a new platform, power consumption during standby and when using streaming services is reduced, resulting in increased battery life. Furthermore, it is equipped with "DSEE Ultimate" AI technology, which upscales compressed sound sources to high-resolution class high-quality sound, allowing you to enjoy high-quality sound even when playing wirelessly via Bluetooth or using streaming services.

The NW-ZX700 series employs the same technologies as the "WM1" series' flagship model, including large-capacity solid polymer capacitors, FTCAP3, oxygen-free copper cutting blocks, large coils, and gold-added high-quality solder. A high-end model with enhanced sound clarity, expressive power of fine sound, and powerful bass. Furthermore, it has unique functions such as the high-performance full digital amplifier "S-Master HX," which supports high-resolution playback, and the "DSD remastering engine," which converts PCM sound sources into DSD signals equivalent to 11.2 MHz without losing any information in the original data.

The product lineup includes one model of the NW-ZX707 with a storage capacity of 64GB, a liquid crystal display of 5.0 type HD (1,280 x 720 dots), an IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless LAN, Bluetooth 5.0, and the main unit. The color is black, the external dimensions are 72.5mm wide, 16.9mm deep, 132.3mm tall, and it weighs approximately 227g.

The product lineup includes two models, the "NW-A307" with a storage capacity of 64GB and the "NW-A306" with a storage capacity of 32GB, an IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless LAN, Bluetooth 5.0, and three body colors: gray, blue, and black.
