NWZ-F805

NWZ-F805

The NWZ-F805 is a first-generation F Series Network Walkman serving as the de facto successor to the A Series during Sony's Android Walkman period. It offers 16 GB storage for MP3, WMA, AAC, FLAC, and WAV files on an 800x480 TFT display with a 25-hour lithium-ion battery. Android 4.0 powered touchscreen operation, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, FM radio, speaker output, WM-PORT, video and photo playback, Clear Audio+, DSEE, and the Walkman Classics Application.

The middle-capacity version of the same first major Android F platform and probably the most representative version of that early idea. It combined wireless features, touchscreen behavior, app logic, and broader file support into something that felt much closer to a specialized media device than to the classic Walkman lineage that came before it.
