They already ran out of stock. That was fast! They probably can sell a ton more if it is available in time for Xmas holiday.

Fiio is probably launching their M15 Pro on 28 December. M11 Pro isn't even out for long and now it's no longer flagship.

As a Sony fanboy, I would rather see Sony take their time to improve on the next product rather then to over produce and alienate those who bought a new flagship product and only to find out that a new model is already on the horizon.

First DAP to operate Qobuz without epic pauses and crashes (or fully operational Amazon Music) will get a serious look from me.

I use Tidal reluctantly.

is anyone else getting about 10% battery drop per day on standby? Compared to my zx300 this is awful and I'm wondering if this is something on my end

Also how are you guys all tracking the total time listened on the player?

About the same or slightly more. I guess it's an Android thing.

Sorry I don't think this add to queue function exist.

thats really sad to know. thats what i have been hoping to be added to the interface of the ZX507. otherwise, i would rather stick to the my current android DAP. thanks a lot.

Thanks Here the VAT is 27% so it will cost a bit more but I dont care. I would rather pay the extra cost now than feel sorry later. Lol

This sony walkman is not available in my country. I am from Hungary. Therefore I bought it on the ebay. European sellers usually sell it for bit more for like hundred dollar or so. So it wasn't a bad deal entirely considering the VAT. Also if the whole value doesn't exceed the 700EUR it is custom free and only the VAT has to be paid.
We are Japanese sellers and only Japanese user manual included. I read this under the item description. It was enough for me to pull the trigger on buying.
