SONY MP4 Video Player Comparison Page

Litrev.co.uk's comparison of the latest four Sony models

The latest range of Sony's MP3 players has proved very popular since its launch.

The new products address the biggest shortcoming about Sony's previous models - they now all have FM Radio*.

Good news for radio lovers, but may be not so good for Creative since FM Radio was the thing that differentiated their players from Apple's ever popular iPod range.

For hardcore audio book lovers there is still a notable absence of Audible file format, but with Sony's flair for excellent design and the reasonable price points, this could be the range that finally begins to menace the iPod's dominance.

So what can you expect from Sony?

Upto 45 hours battery time
Wireless connection
Auto playlist generation
