Yeah, I think the battery life on mine is diminishing too. I've entertained the notion of picking up a new second one recently.
what kind of battery life are you guys getting? and has anyone else noticed the X uses battery while off?
If I charge mine to "full", use it for about two hours a day using the line-out for three days it will be empty when I start it up on the morning of the fourth. So that's like give or take 7 hours of playtime.
The Sansa Clip just keeps the battery charge. When it's off, it's off and it doesn't use any battery. I can start it up next week and it will have about the same amount of charge as the day I turned it off.
Hi, I had buy a sony x 1060, can anybody tell me the differences between x-1060 and 1061?
I can't see any post about it.
thanks a lot for helping

I had two lower-range Sony players....the E345 and the S545....and they both were in a standby mode for a few hours before shutting down completely....it facilitated near instant-on, so it was nice for me. Do you suppose the X also has a standby mode?
Good to see the usual suspects on here all enjoying their X walkmans still, i have had mine over a year now with no problem at all only other than i now solely have to use wav files as i got a pair of JH16pros which are out of this world and make the Shure SE530's and Senn IE8's i had sound like sub £100 iems at best in comparison.
Customs are the way to go for me now and can never go back to universals now as my X unamped has improved a lot with these custom monitors and through a line out and dedicated headamp is sublime.
Muse on my X was just like it sounded at Wembley Stadium on Friday night for me. The bass, ohhh.... ; ))
When is "a new" X in a touchscreen coming out with 64gb at least?
I do not understand Sony's strategy now 'a' day's, it's baffling to say the least. : (
(i don't care for the new A model 64gb with oled screen, just a touch screen model - hmmm, hmmm Sony)
FF- I didn't know there was somewhere in Enfield to demo JH stuff? Hmmm. A demo couldn't frocking hurt could it?
I'm selling my X as I have no use for it.

Uhhhhh, yeah it could hurt!! ....your wallet ultimately that is!!
I expect a full report should you go.
I still prefer the X to the A (I have both Japanese models) in terms of sonics, but I think the days of the X are numbered. At this point, I don't htink Sony will do anything major until CES in January, and doing a more standard DAP (the A) with some of the same characteristics of the X (such as the S-master amp) is probably what we're going to see for awhile.

I do not have the A model, and i can see the reason for the A model, sure....... but i am just baffled by Sony's business model and how slow they have been on the ball in bringing out new models, i know that sounds like an irony in this fast hard to keep up out of date tomorrow technological world we live in today, but why make an X and then not have a straight replacement for it like Apple do with their Touch model.
All Sony had to do was dump the crap like the wi-fi on the X and just make a 64gb X touchscreen that is just a dedicated player with all the added stuff that should of been on there from the start like "on the go playlists" and some other stuff X owners have expressed previously in this forum.
Still live in hope though and think you may be right with the January CES, as it has been a while with Sony banging the Walkman drum and paying close attention to their Walkman line up with great detail and feels like they have half giving up the ghost in trying to compete with the ipods that now dominate our world like Daleks!
