Summary: Sony Walkman
Comment: After trying just about every alternative on the market, this sports walkman is by far the best. It has everything you could want in an inexpensive radio that is ideal for sports events and doing otherwise-tedious yard work. I'd definitely recommend this product.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Sony should be ashamed for this product
Comment: This armband radio is very poor quality and Sony should be ashamed of itself for putting a product like this on the market to carry it's name. The FM Tuner is terrible and can barely pickup local FM stations. Noisey hard to tune and program. Not user friendly at all and part of it the TV tuner will be useless after February 17, 2009. Sony wake up and make something better than this. If you like to workout or walk and listen to the radio don't buy this product.

Summary: Lightweight, but not as good as earlier Sony M80
Comment: I bought this to replace my earlier S2 Walkman. The previous one, model M80, was a bit heavier in weight and required two batteries (instead of one) but it had great radio reception and was easy to use. After four years I literally wore it out and was eager to get a new unit. The new M85V is lighter in weight -- which is nice -- but the radio reception isn't nearly as good, especially on FM stations with moderate to low signal strength. Major bummer since I live in a hilly area of California and radio reception is compromised by mountains, power lines, etc.
I would only recommend the M85 if you plan on listening to radio stations with high wattage and very strong signals.

Summary: Excellent product
Comment: I purchased this product for my family-in law who wanted to listen Chinese stations. First, I didn't consider this product because of price, instead I purchased a Coby manual tuner $9 radio, which only picked up some major FM stations, and I ended up returning to get a better one, which was this Sony Walkman. This works excellent, picked up all stations including minor ones, easy to find a station you like because of digital screen, not much extra noise compare to the others. I should have purchased this from beginning. Looks cute and light.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A radio that doesn't pick up radio
Comment: I read the reviews online but my impression was Sony makes quality products so I tried it. I went to a local store to make the purchase (to make returns easier if the reviews turned out to be true). I knew it was worthless and being returned the day I bought it. I drove around in different parts of the city to test reception and it was UNLISTENABLE everywhere I went. It wasn't small amounts of static, it was UNLISTENABLE. I would review other features, but if it doesn't get past the "does this radio pick up radio stations" part of the test you fail automatically with no need to go any further. I don't know what has changed in Walkmen technology but this is an embarassment to the Sony name. Maybe the overseas place that designs the Walkmen can't test for American radio waves. With all the technology today, why can't Sony get a simple radio player right? I hope Sony realizes their declining radio Walkmen sales are due to product quality and not because people don't buy radios anymore.
