Consumer review by: axms_92 (cnet.com)

Definitely Worth the price

Sony does it again....This new walkman,at its price,does not promise much,but delivers whatever it did promise...the sound clarity is awesome and music battery life is unbelievable....it just goes on and on

Good sound quality ; Really Long Battery Life ; Good clear n sharp screen u can watch a movie on ; Nice Equalizer ; Price ; Support for many formats including aac ; Dedicated Volume and Hold button

All videos need to be converted into wmv 320X240...it may not seem like a big deal for small videos,but when u put in a movie,it's really time-consuming ; Bad user interface(home screen is stupid) ; Short battery life when in video mode ; Storage

Sony hits the mark with the NWZ-E354.

Very nice & small E-Z 2 use walk-about A/V player. Didn't want a gizmo crammed with aps I would never use, this 6.99GB Sony Walkman holds my favorite tunes, videos, pictures & is a FM radio. The screen is IMHO too small for videos, space hogging X-tras...

My Product Review

Power button issue

This is a well designed and easy to use player except for the power button. When we would go to store the player many times we would accidentally turn the thing on. And of course when we would go to use it again the battery would be dead or low. We are...

First MP3 Player

This is my first mp3 player. Bookmarks work great. Very easy to use. Bookmarks and playlists are easy to use and setup. I have about 400 songs loaded so far and still have lots of space. Bought a cable so I can use it connected to my stereo in the car....

happy

I like the product. The battery life is superior. The storage amount and connectability are great. The menus are easy to navigate. One button is a little bit sticky, but for a used product it is acceptable.
