Reviews of the Sony Walkman Bean NW-E307 (1GB, Cotton Candy Pink)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Excellent FM reception and battery life; retractable USB connector.
The Bad: Poorly designed USB cover; awkward controls; tiny screen muddles interface; noticeable hiss during playback; music-store support limited to Sony Connect; slow file transfers.
The Bottom Line: Sony's half-baked Walkman Bean tries hard to be hip, but bad design elements and hissy audio make it one square audio player.
