NWZ-B163

The NWZ-B163 provides 4 GB storage without radio in the 2011 B Series Network Walkman. It represented the straightforward budget option. It features 4 GB flash storage for MP3 and WMA playback. The LCD screen, 18-hour lithium-ion battery, direct USB connection, and ZAPPIN completed its functions.

The B163 gives the same platform a little more breathing room, which makes it easier to live with day to day. It still is part of the same stripped-down B philosophy, but with fewer obvious limitations.
