Design
This player shares same hardware and design with Sony NW-A800. The whole body is encased with metal, and has a glass covered 2.0" LCD display. The three control buttons below display are specially arranged to make up the Walkman logo in the front. Additionally, there is a chrome-like strip made of polished metal surrounding the device.
Overall, the design is in the same style with Sony's preceding Walkman model, NW-A1000/3000, which did not come to sale in United States. Both of them feature a surrounding metal strip and deliberately arranged control buttons to mimic Walkman logo.
The available colors for the NW-A810/800 model are black, white, purple and pink in Japan.
