Two weekends ago, I got to add another gadget to my workout must-have list:

A head-turner
The wearable Walkman is back and now, it’s 25% lighter than its predecessor weighing only 32 grams and boasting of a smaller and more compact look. Discriminating fashionistas who are looking for a more stylish way to enjoy their music will not be disappointed with its chic design and wide range of colors: from the subtle white and black to the vibrant pink and blue. The NWZ-W262 can be the perfect finishing accessory to an outfit. With no wires dangling around, anyone who wears his Walkman will surely look polished.

What a sport
While being a looker, the new Walkman NWZ-W262 brings with it the same water-resistant and washable features making it an ideal sports buddy. Listen to your favorite music while warming up for an intense game of basketball. Turn up the volume to give you an additional boost to run an extra mile on the treadmill. Go on with your cycling routine even under the rain. Whatever it is, the new Walkman NWZ-W262 will continue to provide the perfect musical score for your active lifestyle.

Convenience
Aside from this, the compact Walkman is packed with features that make it very convenient to use. It comes equipped with Content Transfer software which enables music lovers to simply drag-and-drop their music from their computer or iTunes library. The Walkman W262 also comes with ZAPPIN song search technology which enables music browsing through a short audio preview of each track. So no need to take your eyes off the road to look for music while running to find the track you are looking for.

Music to last a whole night long
One of audiophiles’ pet peeve is when their MP3 player dies in the middle of their favorite song. With the Walkman W262, you get to enjoy eight hours of uninterrupted music playback when full charged while the Quick Charge function provides music playback of up to 60 minutes with a mere three-minute charge which is perfect for fashionistas on-the-go and those who are living an active lifestyle.

This is me calling out to Santa to get me the Walkman W262 in BLUE
(see how it perfectly matches my bag *wink* )

H and I got to try it (here’s his two cents) and in terms of fit, the Walkman W262 (2GB, Php 3999) is the first in-ear headphones that fit my tiny ears comfortably. Even without the music blasting, the ambient noise around the mall was zeroed out. Failing the marshmallow test, I immediately toyed around the buttons while H tried on the audio. He liked how clear and crisp the music turned out which is definitely a big plus when you’re training your heart to its last pump (who wants continuous player or wire adjustments anyway?). For me, more than the actual function, I like how pretty it looks like. In a sea of white wires and ear buds, the Walkman W262 will definitely make you fashionably stand out.

Just did some toy shopping/upgrading the last 2 weeks and I feel like these tiny pebbles deserve some snap love:

No, my hands ain’t huge — my toys are just tiny!

I’ve had the Canon IXUS 220 HS (Php 13,000) for two weeks now and I’m absolutely hooked! I’ll show you more snaps from my vacay soon to show off its amazing snapping power hiding in its ultra small bod. :)

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro’s (Php 13,000) from yesterday’s trip to the mall. My beloved Nokia C3 in purple flashed me the WSOD (white screen of death). :((((( I will definitely have it fixed but at the same time, I cannot afford not to have a phone with a mail client. I’ve been lemming for this phone for 3 weeks now and well, I didn’t quite expect that I’d own one this soon. LOL Checkout their slim side panels:

I’m just curious: when shopping for gadgets, what do you consider first? Features? Price? Brand? Colour? Spill the beans!
