So, they're getting rid of Walkman and replacing it with a generic 'Music' app? Not quite sure of the reason why this change is taking place.

Not sure if any else knows this but the M4 Aqua supports PS4 Remote Play and HI Res audio play back. It really is great mid ranger at a decent price I can see Sony doing really well if promoted enough.
I'm so happy 'cause today

Well I've had brief spell with the M4 Aqua and even though it was still a pre production model it was very fluid and Lollipop is great. I did take some photos but to be honest they weren't worth sharing as the camera software isn't finished and the phone it self isn't likely to go on sale till May time so Sony have plenty of time to sort that out. The phone it self is very well built and the screen is bright with very decent viewing angles.

All in all I spent about 10 minutes with the phone and first impressions are very positive, just need some kinks ironed out and it will be fine especially if the RRP is going to be around £170.

I presume the open USB port is like the headphone jack, it has to dry off before you can use it safely right?

This is why I prefer a closed port, just wipe the device and you can use the USB port.

I saw some reviewer putting it to charge right awat after a water test, so it's a non issue.
There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed.

washable

I know this is a gimmick for some but for health professionals like me, I think it's something reallty useful.
