A Low Price for High Quality
1 of 1 found this helpful This stand was simple to assemble with a socket wrench. It is one of the cheapest I've found online and can support many different figures. It seems durable too. I'd highly recommend it! Be warned, however, that some parts of the stand may have sharp edges.

Impressive Compact Technology (Once I Got the Hang of It)
I'm glad I listened to reviews and bought the NW-55. Based on my research, no other walkman includes all the features I want, and the NW-A55 is mostly a joy to use. It is a wonderful thing to be able to connect to music no matter where I am.
- I like how small the device is. It feels nice to hold in the case. The power, volume, play/pause, and screen lock buttons are totally responsive.
- The proprietary charging port is annoying, but I can find fairly cheap extra chargers online for now. I hope that Sony continues to make devices with these ports so that chargers will be easier to find.
- The microSD card slot allows me to store an incredible amount of music that loads fairly quickly on device startup. Battery life is pretty good. Sound quality is great for my insensitive ears.
- The UI has a dark theme that's easy on my eyes. Everything is easy to read, and I like that the titles scroll all the way through.
- The main UI is overall easy to navigate (since I got the hang of what the symbols mean, as some of them are untraditional). While the organization of the settings is a bit confusing, I can use the device by itself to sort by album artist rather than track artist; customize what options appear on the home screen; completely eject the device and microSD card from my computer; adjust brightness and the number of hours before the device shuts down completely; create playlists; and manage many adjustments to the audio itself that, truth be told, I don't fully understand myself.
- The Now Playing screen is minimalist, and I can see more detailed song information - all of the metadata I'm pretty sure - on another screen if I want to. It would be nice to be able to modify what info is displayed on the Now Playing screen.
- I love seeing artwork displayed in library sections (with the exception of individual track lists, but that's great for scroll buffering reasons). The most frustrating feature of the device is managing album art; I can't use standalone JPGs in each album, so the device embeds art in every single track when syncing. This takes up so much extra storage space. Also, I installed a mod so the device would display non-progressive JPGs (why did Sony design the NW-A55 to only display baseline JPGs?) but this works inconsistently, so sometimes I have to manually add art to individual song metadata on my computer.
- Swiping left on the Now Playing screen is so useful - the bookmark feature is great!
- I have to use a different setting to connect to a car than to a phone with the Bluetooth feature, but once connected the device works perfectly and even sends metadata to display in the car.
- Sound quality is good. When I unplug from the aux port, audio pauses. I can hold the scroll bar to move quickly through tons of artists alphabetically. It's the little things.
I'm satisfied with the NW-A55 and look forward to continuing to use it for a long time. For any non-Apple listener who wants to experience music separated from the internet or another device... stick with this Sony walkman.
