The All New Sony Walkman ZX2

The new Walkman ZX2 is real, and it’s designed exclusively with high-end audiophiles in mind as Sony puts it themselves, this is “the fruit of continuous refinement in high audio quality technologies.”

I love the new ZX2. Texture of its matte black casing and the playback buttons carved into its curved side is awesome, The distinctive gold-toned headphone jack juts wider than the frame and adjacent to the microSD slot.

The ZX2 is running years-old Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, to be exact, which first debuted in November 2012. And while you can download and play apps from Google Play, this isn’t meant to match wits with today’s smartphones. Everything around the device is meant for an optimal audio experience. Specs-wise, the new Walkman supports DSD, WAV, AIFF, FLAC, Apple Lossless, and more. It supports Bluetooth for wireless streaming and NFC for one-touch connection to speakers and headphones.
The ZX2 will launch in the Spring for over $1,119.99.
