You read that correctly. Sony is coming out with a Walkman — you remember those, right?
It's going to cost over $1,100. The product, called the Walkman ZX2, was announced at the
CES conference in Las Vegas. Sony is pushing the Walkman as "the fruit of continuous
refinement in high audio quality technologies."
Though it can access apps through Google Play (it runs on an old version of Android),
the device is not meant to compete with your smartphone. It is unclear whether the device
is a Sony Walkman or an Android device being marketed by Sony with the Walkman branding.
You might be thinking this is crazy, but the device has already won people over.
