Sony's New MP3 Players Look Like Lipstick

Sony seems to be thinking more about its player's design. The newly released NW-E010 Walkman measures the size of a lipstick and weighs less than a cigarette pack. On the inside, it features a direct USB connection, a 3 line color display and an integrated FM tuner, for the ones that might get bored of music while traveling or commuting to work.

The item comes in 1GB and 2GB storage capacities and lasts up to 30 hour battery life. The good thing is that it only takes an hour to charge the tiny Sony to get it live and sound again for another 30 hours.

The bad thing seems to be the price tag around 77 pounds, just as much as you would pay for a 4GB of space in Chinese of Korean portable media players.

Revealing high audio quality, so common these days among the WALKMAN series, the NW-E010 boasts 2 Clear Audio Technologies such as clear bass and clear stereo.

The integrated 3 line color LCD display makes the menu navigation real easy and while you listen to your favorite music, the player displays albums covers, but you can also search by artist, album, genre or recent file transfer. You can also customize the music sound using one of the 5 band equalizers such as heavy/pop/jazz/unique and custom, according to your personal music taste.

Moreover, you'll never get bored of this Sony music device, as it can be customized with a wide range of stylish and functional cases such as the popular CLP-NWE010 Smart Clip and CKS-NWE010 soft carry case, made of special silicon, for the best protection against scratches and damage.

Sony even thought about the active people who like to jog on their favorite U2 track, when creating the CKA-NWE010K arm band and sports clip kit. So feel free to use the player while you perform your outdoor exercises.
