Summary: Avoid this product - headphone conncection fails!
Review: I just purchased this product and opened the package. Immediatly I noticed that the connection with the headphones either loses sound altogether, or generates lots of static. Then, I read the other reviews here and notice this problem is sytemic in most other units that were purchased. It's going back tomorrow.

Summary: S2 Sports Walkman Arm Band Radio is more!
Review: I bought 2 of these for my wife and I to use while we work out at the health club. While we use the cardio machines, there are 10 TVs that you can tune your radio to. Exactly the number of presets! The local feature for reception ensures no feedback from adjacent radio stations. I use the arm feature and my wife uses the belt clip. We find it easy to read and use and the hold makes sure it doesn't "bump" off or to another channel while working out. Only complaint is that I wish the earphones, which are very comfortable, had only one wire to one side rather than 2 wires, one to each side. Excellent value and very happy!

Summary: miserable
Review: This walkman, which I received less than 4 weeks ago new, has terrible reception in a good area, the headphone connection doesn't work - you only consistantly get one ear, and the volume is in a terrible place making it too loud or two low.the armband doesn't stay put and heaven forbid you have thin arms - it doesn't close tightly enough. It's just a miserable product.. And Sony want me to pay to have it fixed. Can you fix poor design? Steer clear.

Summary: Still Cannot Get the Connection Right
Review: This is the third iteration I have purchased. Each time the headset connection gets worse and makes it all but unusable. I don't mind paying a premium price for a radio, but at least I would like one that worked.

Summary: Too unreliable to use
Review: I would like a reliable radio to carry along when I walk. My husband bought me a Sony SRF-M80V S2 Sports™ Radio Walkman and it is a piece of junk. I can't get it to stay on. I cannot enjoy using it because it is too undependable. In fact it makes me angry. I thought Sony was a good company but this product is worthless. Is anyone making reliable radios now? I prefer to pay less than $50 but might pay more if I knew I was getting a good product. It saddens me that reliability and customer service seem to be increasingly rare.

Summary: i got 3, all broke within 1 year
Review: I got one for myself and two other ones for friends. Initially it worked great, but after about 9 months all got the same problem: the headset no longer connected well to the radio and hence it stopped working (lots of noise). This is definitely a flaw in the design and I do not recommend anyone buying this product.

Summary: Garbage
Review: This radio has a lot of nice features, but is not built very strong. The belt clip broke off on my unit, and now the head phone jack is going. I expect a radio that is supposed to be used while exercising to be durable. I need a new radio now (less than 1 year), and I am not going to buy another Sony SRF-M80V.

Summary: I love mine!
Review: I got mine about 5 months ago, when I decided to hit the gym seriously. I haven't been without it since -- it's practically grown into my arm now.
The AM/FM/TV and weather band settings are great. I also like how easy it is to set your favorite stations.
They're right about the volume control, though. It's pretty easy to accidentally turn way up or down. I wish there was a "volume hold" like the key-lock feature.
Also, I wish the face were backlit, so I could read it in the dark.
And get yourself a better set of headphones. All connection issues will end there.
But the battery life is terrific, and the unit is very durable.

Summary: Piece of junk
Review: I am an avid runner, and I live right in the city of Boston. I can get exactly 2 stations with this product. The worst thing about the product is the connection between the headset and the radio. It is horrible. Slight movement of the connection and you lose some or all of your sound. I brought the first one back, and my second one is just as bad. I'll be returning this one this weekend for a refund, never to buy another one.

Summary: Don't waste your money, your wallet will thank you...
Review: The product has plenty to offer, TV/AM/FM tuner, weather stations, plenty of presets, etc. I was turned off by the product a few weeks after purchasing it. The volume control is by far the biggest dissapointment. If it is clipped to your belt, bending over or any such movements will cause the belt to turn the volume knob accidentally as the knob is horribly placed on the inner part of the radio, closest to the body. There is an audible hiss even at it's lowest setting. Fine adjustment of the volume to your exact liking is a lesson in frustration most times. At a low setting which I usually like, the sound only comes out of the right earpiece. Unfortunately, I never got around to returning the product and I suffer with it on a daily basis waiting for it to break so I can get a better one. Avoid this product like the plague!!
