    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    No restriction that I’m aware of. I have around 11,000 tracks. However if you use the Walkman player app, I believe it will only count up to 9999. If you just want to play through all your tracks it would display something like this as it counts 108/- , 109/-, 110/- etc.

    I haven’t updated yet but hopefully this fixes the connection issue I am always having when I am streaming hi res music and sending over LDAC at the same time.

    Interesting you bring this up. This is very important to me as well being able to find these buttons without pulling it out of my pocket. I had the original Sony silicon case but did not care for its flimsy looseness but the buttons were perfect. I did just receive this cheap tinted transparent...

    Yea I have to agree, after a year of owning it as well... I just love this little Walkman. Sound is wonderful, perfect size, lightweight, easy-to-find tactile side buttons and all day battery life. No complaints at all after a year.

    Did you by chance already try going into the Walkman Player app Settings and selecting either ‘Update Database’ and/or ‘Rebuild Database’? I have to do this everyone now n then, usually after I had the Walkman plugged into the pc. Sometimes the device either won’t see my music or it will see it...

    To PIN the app to the Lock Screen you open the multitasking view, then click the app icon (above the tile) you want to Pin, then you should see the option. If you do use a lock code you will always have to enter it in to get past the pinned app, which also in turn removes the pinned app. Good luck.

    The only differences I have noticed so far with the latest update is there is now search bar at the top in the app drawer (pretty sure that wasn’t there before). And they added an option/support for their 360 Reality feature in the sound settings. I think Tidal users can take advantage of that...

    That response is actually perfect for what I am looking for. Because I can sleep with my Sennheisers I cannot sleep with the Fiio’s haha. Thanks for that! I may be next on that purchase. Appreciate it!

    How is the weight of the new XM5s when it comes to comfort. I may be interested in a set of wireless buds to go along with my iems and I like the price point for these. But always concerned with weight/comfort with wireless Bluetooth buds. I can only compare with my current iems. I have a pair...

    I completely agree. I will say I was able to enable the gestures navigation with an ADB desktop tool manually, if you’re willing to research the steps. I much rather prefer it this way and enjoy not having the buttons always showing along the bottom. Cleaner look overall.

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I apologize but it has been a good year since I did this to mine so I can’t exactly recall what the apps are or how they read. The tool I used also helped make it easier with telling me the safe apps to remove. I also got a new laptop since then and do not have the tool any longer and can’t...

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I enabled gestures navigation to accomplish this for the same reason. Instead of buttons you’re doing swipes to go home, back, etc. and no buttons show along the bottom. FYI, some apps will not take advantage of the extra space. However I still prefer it this way just for the cleaner not so...

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    Yea it definitely drains the battery faster with the Ka3 and a306 combo. I haven’t done any real comparisons but I would say it’s probably about the same rate of drain. There’s been a couple times I will use that combo and listen before bed, then fall asleep by accident lol and 7-8 hours later...

    I myself was also stuck getting a Capped US version a306. Did not want to go through any hassle getting my hands on an uncapped version. If it helps for comparison, I pair my capped version with 16ohm Sennheiser IEMs and depending on the audio track quality I am usually at a listening level...

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I will agree too that it is slower… I have transferred music both ways.. using a micro sd usb adapter stick and just leaving the card in the Walkman and plugging into the pc. It’s definitely much faster using the usb adapter. My laptop has a usb c port and I tried transferring with usb c to usb...

    What really surprised me with the Senn 7mm DD was the bass! Gimme more bass! Love how the bass sounds in both the iE200s and my current go-to monitors ie400s. I dont have a lot of experience with many diff iems brands/styles and was not expecting the base to sound that awesome with such a small...

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I originally tried the ie200s with my a306 and really enjoyed the sound! Crisp, clear and detailed! Quite surprised how well they sounded for a small 7mm Dynamic driver! However I did end up moving up to the ie400s only because I wanted a bit more volume and bass and am happy with them very...

    I think the only type of hardware/device/machine I ever cared about the Boot-Up time would be my personal car. Phones, computers, tablets, Daps, Tvs etc etc, never cared about the time it takes to turn on.

    Another Tip/Trick for convenience purposes… if you use a lock screen and are always annoyed with unlocking every time just to get to your music player. You can turn on App Pinning, then Pin your music player. Now when you close out the screen and turn it back on, your music player (or whatever...

    Excellent! Thanks for that explanation. I also tried all 3.. Poweramp, neutron, and UAPP and completely agree with you. I enjoy the user interface much more with Poweramp. It’s smooth and fairly quick. Neutron gave me some lag here n there and the UI is a bit congested and confusing. UAPP was...

    I’m curious about something if any professionals here would know since I am new to the audiophile world and only dipping my toes in the water when it comes to being a true audiophile. Does using a different player such as UAPP, Poweramp, etc etc change the sound from the original Sony sound...

    For any metadata or album art that’s missing on your tracks or albums.. I used an awesome PC program called MusicBrainz Picard. It will scan all your tracks/albums and fill in the missing data and the album art. Obviously there might be some it can’t find. Then Of course you will have to...

    Right! You would think because of the smaller screen it would be a great option. I had it on my older android phone and my current android tablet. Guess Sony wasn’t interested in it.

    There it is! I couldn’t find the command since I originally did it to mine like a month ago. Good find!
