 Great price for quality sound January 2, 2010

We bought two of these for a brother and sister and sent them off to Canada for Christmas. The two kids (young adults actually, 21 and 26) love them. As soon as they opened them, they were on the internet downloading songs etc. They said they were very happy with how easy the Walkmans were to use and the quality of sound is excellent. Much cheaper than the ipod equivalent and with Sony quality, great choice.
Excellent piece of kit February 13, 2010

I purchased the Sony NWZE444B 8GB on the back of previous reviews and am extremely pleased with my purchase and the excellent price and service through Amazon. I bought it predominantly for playing music, which it does very well, but have also explored using all the functions it has to offer, including downloading programmes using the bbc iplayer, which I must say was far easier than I was led to believe, having followed the helpful hints provided by previous reviewers. OK, the screen is only small, not ideal for programmes with a lot of detail, but programmes such as Mock the Week are ideal to view and a great way to catch up on missed programmes.
The volume is certainly more than loud enough for me, I hate to think what damage some people must be doing to their hearing if they complain of poor sound levels!! The headphones are adequate, but I tend to use my Senheisser c 300 s which do improve the overall quality. However the preset equaliser settings, and more importantly the user defined ones, should enable even the most critical user to find a sound balance they are happy with. The unit is nice and small and classy looking and very user friendly and the battery life is way above what I am used to, and it charges up via your USB port using the enclosed cable. I like the easy drag and drop feature for transferring information and the included Sony software also works well.
Overall an excellent piece of kit that does what it says and at a very affordable price. Highly recommended.
A good alternative to an iPod Nano, at a competitive price March 21, 2010

I came to this player having never used MP3 players from any company other than Apple, so I'm comparing the Walkman with the iPod Nano (5th Generation).
Firstly, compatibility. The player is not compatible with Apple computers, so it's Windows or nothing. The product pack doesn't claim any Windows 7 compatibility, but once you have installed the software (it's on the player), it downloads an updated version that is Windows 7 (32 bit and 64 bit) compatible. If you want to synchronise content automatically, you need Windows Media Player 11 or later. If you use iTunes, you can drag-and-drop files onto the player, which works well enough.
Compared with an iPod Nano of comparable capacity, the price is very reasonable. It also feels lighter - it's plastic rather than aluminium, and shorter and broader. Like the Nano, it has a small screen, about 2", which is just about big enough to watch a film if you turn the player on its side.
The controls look like the wheel on the Nano, with a couple of extra buttons placed like mouse-ears on the wheel. Actually, the wheel isn't a wheel at all, it's four buttons in a cross shape (up/down and left/right) with a select/play/pause button in the middle. The mouse-ears are "back" (or keep pressed to return to the home menu) and "option" (keep pressed to turn the player off). The volume control, and up/down rocker, is on the right edge of the player, as is the hold switch, which stops you from accidentally pressing buttons when the player is in your pocket.
The player can display photos, play movies, music, plus it has an FM radio and can record voice memos. There's no "shake to shuffle", no VoiceOver and no camera. Otherwise, it has all the functions of a Nano.
If you're coming from an iPod, you probably use iTunes. Be aware that none of your purchased DRM-protected content (such as .M4P music files) will play on the Walkman. M4As (iTunes Plus) and MP3 files are fine.
The player may warn you that it needs to convert movies to play them. In my experience, it spends ages converting them and still can't play them. It's happy with .MP4 videos and .MPGs, but not .M4Vs or .MOV files.
Sound quality is quite good. By default, the volume is limited to prevent possible hearing damage - you can turn this off if you want. As with the Nano, the video screen is tiny, and the quality is not great. The orientation can be changed so you can watch sideways.
The headphones are very poor, worse even than those that come with the Nano, but of course they're easy to replace with something better. The USB connector has a bespoke plug at the Walkman end, so that's a cable you mustn't lose.
Battery life is better than the Nano. After playing music for 12 hours continually, the battery was still more than half charged.
Compatibility issues, especially for movies, is a let-down, and I still find the controls slightly awkward compared with the Nano. Given that this sort of device isn't really intended for watching movies (that's what iPod Touches are for), and that most of my purchased music is compatible iTunes Plus content, it's a fair choice as a "music on the go" player.
First class MP3 January 18, 2010

I purchased this MP3 player after having to send back a Samsung YP-S3JAB 4GB, which was rubbish. Well done Amazon, no problems with the return and credit.
The Sony NWZ-E444 8GB is so easy to use, even for a 75 year old with his first MP3 player.
I did not even have to ask a 10 year old to show me how to work it. I do wish there was a bit more volume, perhaps its my age. I have also played this unit through a Hi-Fi system, but you still have to increase the volume quite a bit.
Down loading music through Media Player and deleteing through Explorer is very easy, I did not find this with the Samsung player.
I would like to thank people who send in the reviews, without them I would not have found this Sony MP3.

I couldn't download the instructions, but didn't need to, it's so easy - drag & drop for music & photos. The sound quality is what I've come to expect from the whole series of Walkmans (Walkmen??) I've owned over the years, I'm delighted with it.
