This is my first Walkman player in about 11 years. What I like about the SONY Walkman MP3 machines is their absolute simplicity of purpose. This particular model doesn't even feature a video player - so it is strictly dedicated to sound enjoyment (and yes - a few JPEGs, if you want them). SONY has made some gains and compromises over the years, so I would offer that the start-up is nice and fast (whereas the old machine took at least 15 seconds from 'off'), the control panels on the front are hair-trigger and easy to mis-strike. Additionally, per limitations of SONY's philosophy, remote buttons on lanyard headphones will not work - not even volume controls. It is, after all (and thankfully) not a phone. The switch from metal to plastic has made the object so light as to be almost too light for the hands (particularly large hands). I've looked for a good cover and haven't really found an equivalent to what I had which covered the face plate. I'm searching through drawers for a screen protector - assuming the information window is delicate plastic. The 30-hour battery life claim may be true, but it hasn't been thoroughly tested by me. I'm looking forward to it, though. As a light, affordable, great-sounding player, this is probably far ahead of the pack. Just get a little case for it and the headphones and you''ll be well-served. The AAC format seems to be very economical on file size, so even the smallest model holds lots of CDs.Read full review

I wanted somthing that worked with windows 10 and could hold my favorite songs .I havent had it for very long yet . I don't really know battery life yet . The only thing I don't like is when I want to change songs or load my own playlist it gets complicated between getting walkman to accept songs and getting constent warnings not to unhook device.

pros, good sound, easy to use. Manual equalizer. The Software allows to create playlists and easily drag and drop music from computer files. Cons, the encasing is made of a cheap plastic. The earbuds that come with it are of poor quality. Had to get a better ones from apple.

Sony Walkman has good sound. It is relatively easy to use. I do not like the ear buds, they are difficult to insert correctly. I have ordered head phones that I hope will work better. Battery life does not seem to be super good, but I'll just have to make sure I charge them frequently. Price seemed to be pretty good.

It'd been a long time when I wanted to have this particular player and eventually, I bought it. I am a Sony fan and I wished owning this thing. Having smartphone and Spotify, apparently, this device type is already redundant solution, nevertheless I still like it. Coming back to Sony E394. Unfortunately, I unimpressed with the sound quality, as expected magic and purer sound. My oldish Sandisc Sansa Clip plays the same track with the same headset literally better, deeper, and cleaner. I don't like Sony's feature to switch the device On by pressing at any button, even with switched Hold button. It often plays music in my pocket for itself and as result has completely drained battery. I put "No" for all three questions about 'sound quality', 'easy usage' and 'battery life', but please read these as "average". Not really bad at all, but I expected more from the Sony product.Read full review
