NW-WM1ZM3

The NW-WM1ZM3 is Sony's 2026 Signature Series Walkman, with 256 GB of storage and a 5.5-inch display. Following the NW-WM1ZM2, it retains a gold-plated oxygen-free copper main chassis and adds an oxygen-free copper rear chassis. Dual large solid high-polymer capacitors and KIMBER KABLE internal wiring continue the flagship's emphasis on power circuitry and physical construction.

Android, Wi-Fi and USB-C support downloaded music and streaming services. According to Sony, the updated S-Master HX adds look-ahead noise shaping, while the DSD Remastering Engine can now process streamed music as well as downloaded files.
