Reviews of the Sony E-Series Walkman (second generation, 8GB, black)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The second-generation Sony E-Series Walkman is very inexpensive and features a compact design with a nice, bright screen. It's easy to use and offers a variety of desirable extras, such as an FM tuner, a user-customizable EQ, and support for Amazon Video On Demand. Sound quality is great.
The Bad: The E-Series Walkman has a lower rated battery life than before, and there's still no podcast support. Sony eliminated Rhapsody DNA integration.
The Bottom Line: The second-generation Sony E-Series Walkman remains an excellent value thanks to its ultralow pricing, pocketable design, handy features, and great sound quality.
