This is the CP13 cassette player inspired by the popular Sony Walkman back in the 80s era.<\/p>\n<p>The gadget is just not a shell inspired by the Walkman of that time, rather it is a modern cassette music player to its true core. You can gauge the realism from the fact that there isn\u2019t Bluetooth on this music player to keep this very authentic. However, the Chinese manufacturer has added USB-C charging feature to save you from buying AA batteries every week.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fiio.com\/\">Fiio<\/a><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-470903\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/01\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/Fiio-CP13-Cassette-Player-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/01\/12\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Fiio CP13 revives Sony Walkman mixtape era in a USB-C chargable version\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/01\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/Fiio-CP13-Cassette-Player-2.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-470903\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/01\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/Fiio-CP13-Cassette-Player-2.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/01\/12\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Fiio CP13 revives Sony Walkman mixtape era in a USB-C chargable version\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/01\/fiio-cp13-revives-sony-walkman-mixtape-era-in-a-usb-c-chargable-version\/Fiio-CP13-Cassette-Player-2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"6683677248\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"975a3ca0cae759acc1ec172e-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"975a3ca0cae759acc1ec172e-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Doesn\u2019t this mean, that cassette player <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> has gone a full circle and now coming back in trend?
