Being part of the WALKMAN series means you can pretty much
expect the W880i to be a user friendly MP3 player as well.
It uses a pretty WALKMAN 2.0 interface that was designed to
provide quick navigation of songs under various categorizations
such as artist names, albums, track names and playlist.
Like the iPod, the supports album art display for pretty
on-screen effects. A useful feature for music lovers is TrackID
music recognition. Powered by Gracenote Mobile MusicID, any
song can be identified simply by using TrackID to record a
few seconds of songs that you are either having a hard time
recollecting or unfamiliar with. Information such as singer,
album name and title would be sent back to you via an SMS
after TrackID has ran the recorded clip through the comprehensive
Gracenote database. As usual, the audio quality is one of
the best around from a mobile phone with MP3 playback functionality.
