I was trying to tell you that using a smartphone to play subs without having it charging was going to be a hassle at best. I'm a sony fanatic myself but honestly up until recent times I would say noone could touch the battery life on sony music players.
Nowadays lots of the competitors can get at least 11-13 hours out of their devices and even apple has impressive battery life at this point. Sanza and Sony are both good players. You really cant go wrong with either. Dont take the battery life on the product page at face value. Its always going to be slightly less and it also depends on what volume you use the player at as well as brightness setting and how much you use or have the screen on.
Just dont go for a player with android on it. The UI tends to use a lot of unnecessary juice imo.
