Many thanks. Is this the best or just the best Sony? This one does not figure in many of the 'best of' lists.
thanks,

The Sony Walkman NW-A100 series arrived at IFA 2019 with great retro fanfare. It’s the latest in the 40-year history of Sony’s portable players and is aiming to convince a new generation of music lovers to forget about their smartphones and take portable listening to a whole new level.
In Europe, there's a choice between the Sony Walkman NW105 and the limited edition 40th anniversary model, the Sony Walkman NW-A100TPS (above). The two are almost identical, but the TPS comes with a soft cover, styled like the very first Walkman, and a presentation pack.
The NW-A105 and the more premium
Sony Walkman NW-ZX705 get their share of old school fun, though. Along with the TPS, they feature a rather nice moving cassette tape splash screen which changes depending on what you're listening to.
