(SINGAPORE, 3 May 2017) – Keep the music going on any terrain
with the all-new waterproof and dustproof wearable WS623 Walkman®,
now with Bluetooth®Wireless Technology. Built to endure extreme
outdoor conditions or any sporting activity, the wearable Walkman® is
the ultimate sports companion that brings you music without limits.

With improved wearing comfort, the WS623
Walkman® features an ergonomic, slim and light design[1] that stays in
place no matter the movement. Newly equipped with Bluetooth® Wireless
Technology[2], you now have the
option of streaming music from your smartphone using the convenient Near-field
Communication (NFC) one-touch pairing, or simply store up to 16GB of audio
within.

  

Love the sea? The WS623 Walkman® is
salt waterproof[3], allowing you to
swim to a depth of 2 meters with up to 30 minutes of submerged time. Also
dustproof[4], it can withstand
small particles – making it perfect for any sand based activity or a run along
the beach. It also comes with standard earbuds[5] and specially
designed waterproof earbuds that are covered with a thin film to prevent water
damage to the Walkman® and optimise sound levels for underwater
listening. Together with a temperature feature, the Walkman® can
endure extreme temperatures from -5°C to 45°C, making it ideal for a hike or
climb.

Stay in touch with your surroundings by
enabling Ambient Sound Mode, utilising nifty in-built microphones to pick up
external voices and sounds in the surrounding environment – allowing you to
communicate with your workout buddy or trainer without skipping a beat. A quick
charge feature gives a full 60 minutes of audio time with just a three-minute
power-up, while a full charge will provide 12 hours of battery life[6].

The WS623 Walkman® will be available at all Sony Stores,
Sony Centres and selected Sony authorised dealers from May 2017.
