Sony Australia, has announced the launch of two new MP3 players in their successful Walkman range.

Sony’s lead release, the X series, is the first MP3 player in the Walkman range to feature a three inch OLED touch screen display.

This display offers extremely high contrast, exceptional colour reproduction and a rapid response time. Consumers are also given enhanced usability by the combination of full touch screen capabilities but also a traditional touch panel.

Paul Colley, Sony’s technology communications manager, comments that “this addition of a traditional touch panel, allows users to navigate the player’s features whilst on the move, without having to stop and look down to use the touch screen.”

The introduction of the OLED display also means that the device offers superior battery life; OLED displays have very low power consumption, therefore the X series offers up to 30 hours of play time.
