Abstract

We Are Rewind has created a Bluetooth cassette player that pays homage to Sony's 1979 Walkman. The player features a metallic casing and simple rectangular shape reminiscent of the original Walkman, but with modern updates for the 21st century. It includes all the controls of a classic portable cassette player, a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 12 hours, Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, a headphone jack, and an auxiliary input for recording. The popularity of physical media, including cassette tapes, has been on the rise, and We Are Rewind's Bluetooth cassette player offers a way to enjoy analog music with wireless headphones or speakers. The player is priced at $164 and comes in three metallic shades. [Extracted from the article]
