There's a USB Type-C port for charging and the battery takes about 3.5 hours to be charged from 0 to 100 per cent.
Connectivity features on the Sony Walkman NW-ZX707 are a headphone stereo mini jack, balanced standard-jack, USB Type-C (USB3.2 Gen1 compliant) and MicroSD to support external memory. The new Walkman NW-ZX707 also supports multiple sound effects that include 10 Band equalizer, Direct Source (Direct), DSEE Ultimate, DC Phase Linearizer, Dynamic Normalizer as well as Vinyl Processor.
