 Very good player both for music and bbc programs! November 28, 2009

From my short experience I can confirme that the sound level can be regulated and is higher than enough (if you want). But I guess that in some mp3 players the highest level is even higher.
The quality of sound is superb, but you need better earphones. I use Sennheiser MX 760 from Amazon and it is perfect. Equalizer is very helpful. You can transfere audio files without installing any programs as well BBC programs from iplayer. The quality of the screen is very good (just very small). Get stylish case as otherwise it is all plastic and can be fragile. FM is also very helpful, works well and search of channels is precise. Voice recording is a bonus, it does work properly and good enough for such device.
One thing is irritating me that when it is in the sleeping mode the background picture or clock shows
every short interval: I can not manage to have it on or or off all the time. But probably I will learn how soon.
Conslusion: very good player in this price range. Recommend.

I don't agree with other reviewers' comments concerning low sound volume. There is an option to switch off automatic volume limiting.
Having just bought the player, I have only used it for storing music so far. What first strikes me is the impressive sound quality. I have been experimenting with the various file formats and settled on 240 to 355Kbps variable bit rate wma. Rather extravagant with memory but great quality, my 80 albums use about 10GB on this format. Recording, deleting moving individual songs is very easy compared with my previous players.
For storing music an impressive bit of kit.

Just started out with this player and I can confirm the comments on sound quality - it really is superb with a decent pair of headphones (I use Sennheiser PX100s) The music is clear and punchy, timing is spot on, tight but full bass and with a mid-range clarity that allows you to listen to the vocalists performance in detail. I would go so far as to say that it will entice you to listen to your whole collection afresh as so much more detail comes through (OK depends what you are used to but I was using a decent Creative Zen). Volume is not an issue provided you disable the AVLS feature.
Video is also impressive, and does work with BBC Iplayer (follow BBC instructions and use Windows Media player to sync to the device), but is rather small - the Sony 545 would be better if you want to watch Video a lot.
A few problems
- had some problems with locking up and volume dropping to start with, but that has disappeared once I did a reset.
- no bookmark or seek facility. You can pause something and return to it later reliably, but if you decide to listen to a different song then you have to restart the original from the beginning. OK no problem for most songs but if you are halfway through an episode of "Spooks" or worse listening to an audio book then you have to restart from the beginning - no way around it.
- as a result of the previous problem there is no support for Audible format audio books.
- It may say 16Gb on the package but Windows Media Player reports 14.7 GB free when you first start using it - same problem as hard disks - manufacturers use 1000,000,000 bytes = 1Gb, MS sys that 1,073,741,824 byes = 1 Gb (!)
However no big deal, and at the latest price this player is a real steal!.

Sony NWZE445B E Series 16GB MP3 Walkman with Voice Recording Function - Black
This product has been a very satisfying purchase. I wanted an MP3 player that would not only play music from my CD and Itunes collection but would also have a radio facility.The 16GB of memory available is quite adequate for me at the moment so I am more than satisfied. I had some problems at the start with duplication of some tracks ie WMA and AAC but have enjoyed resolving these problems and find the software very intuitive. I have not had a great deal of experience of MP3 players but find it hard to imagine another product that would please me more than this one.
So easy! April 27, 2010

I bought this for my husband, who gets irritated with gadgets he can't instantly work! The first one was faulty (wouldn't even turn on) but Amazon replaced it with admirable ease and speed. The second one is perfect. Compact, clear and simple with minimal buttons easy for big hands to work. He uses it in his office, with a set of tower speakers (why does EVERYTHING, even Sony products, have to be designed for iPods? The Walkman is so much better for so much less money!) or in the car with a simple connector.
Because of the tower speakers having an iPod dock, I seriously considered buying one, but if you can live without an Apple logo, this is much better value, no need to convert all your music from MP3 format, superb quality sound ... all round impressive.
