New Sony NW-A850 and NW-S750 Walkman Music Players unveiled

Sony introduced the New NW-A850 and NW-S750 Walkman lines in Japan today. The NW-A850 series comes black, silver and brown and with capacities up to 64GB. The Sony NW-S750 is available in eight colors and capacities topping at 32GB.

In terms of features I could not spot something really interesting besides the usual gimicks like lyrics display and karaoke mode. The NW-A850 launches in November and the NW-S750 next month. Do not expect to see these Walkman players outside of Japan. Update: The NW-S750 series will be actually availabie outside of Japan. Sony announced the S750 in Europe today as well.

Feature highlights of the S750:

• 7.2mm slim with premium styling in aluminium
• Superb WALKMAN® sound quality with rich, clear bass and 5 Clear Audio Technologies
• Digital Noise Cancelling cuts 98.0% of background noise
• Friendly ‘drag and drop’ transfers from iTunes or Windows® Explorer
• Extra-long battery life up to 50 hour (music)/10 hour (video)1
• Bright, high-contrast 5.1cm (2”) TruBlack™ LCD
• Watch Standard Definition video on connected TV
• SensMe™ channels for themed listening to suit any mood
