Sony Network Walkman NW-E3 (64 MB) MP3 Player

Pros: Sexy Styling, Smallest player around, solid all around Sony performance.
Cons: Tiny - easily dropped/lost, no belt clip/arm band. Non-swappable memory

This tiny player is a head turner with great performance, sexy styling and "Its a Sony" which means, you know what you're getting. When you buy a Sony you're buying the Honda of electronics - Its not a Ferrari but not a Pinto. Its reliable, good on...

Pros: Looks amazing.
Cons: Software problems.

To me Sony has come up with the sleekest sexiest MP3 product on the market today. But besides looks it's really just garbage.

With 64mb of non-expandable memory you get about 12-15 songs, if you want the same quality as CDs do. And that’s...

Pros: Gorgeous
Cons: Indescribably bad software

I'll start by saying that this is the most aesthetically pleasing MP3 device available today and that I really wish I could write a good review about it. Unfortunately due to some almost inconceivably poor decisions on Sony's part, this device will...

Pros: Tiny, looks wonderful, good clean sound, fast USB transfers
Cons: Overbearing jukebox software, proprietary codec, battery life, can't fit extra memory

The NW-E3 is part of Sony's Network Walkman range of 'Portable IC Audio Players'. Small and sexy it may be, but be warned at the outset that this is not an MP3 player. Rather than MP3 the NM-E3 supports Sony's proprietary ATRAC3 codec which is a more...

Pros: Looks,Sound Quality, Build Quallity
Cons: Battery Life

First things first........... No matter how many shapely MP3 players you have seen, no matter how jaded you are, the first time you see and hold the NW-E3 you WILL be amazed at how tiny and Sexy it is........ And mark my words, it WILL get lost or stolen...

Pros: good player, good battery life
Cons: software (but I'm sure they'll fix this)

Ok two weeks ago I had accident with a wall and my RIOPLAYER ! - bosh - Insurance "but they don't make it anymore!!!" - arhhh well (carmly) "give me one of those" - thats fine sir here you go !! WOOOOOO !!! HOOOOOW !!

...

Pros: Compact, Stylish, Great sound, Durable.
Cons: Bland Software

This device is perfect for the intermediate/standard computer user. I recommend this for those who have Windows98 or 98se, and Windows2000 (with upgraded software). The only problem I have with this great device is being able to manage, organize, and...

Pros: Small, user-friendly, good music quality and storage
Cons: Expensive and low battery life

Good:
The Sony NW-E3 is very impressive in size and music quality. It is the size of a normal cigarette lighter and you get cd quality music. For my sony nw-e3, i can fit around 17-21 songs, depending on track size. The buttons are very useful...

Pros: Great Sound Quality... Easy to use... Typical SONY good looks and function!
Cons: BATTERY LIFE, BATTERY LIFE, BATTERY LIFE... and did i mention BATTERY LIFE?

Firstly, disregard the nay-sayers... THIS IS BY FAR THE COOLEST DIGITAL AUDIO PLAYER THERE IS! While not really a "true MP3 player" Sony's proprietary ATRAC compression and Open MG software are EASY TO USE, INTUITIVE, and best of all - SOUND QUALITY IS...

Pros: Looks, good sound- Rich Bass with good headphones
Cons: Battery Life

I recently bought the Sony NW-E3. I was in two minds about it, after reading all of the opinions on this web site saying that loads of people had problems with the software, etc. However, even after reading all of the negative comments I decided to go...

Pros: TINY SIZE!!!, build quality(made in japan) sound quality
Cons: MUST d/l 3rd party software to use it to full potential. easy loss/theft

I bought this at FYE onsale for an absolute steal at 79.99

The software it comes with is absolute trash with compatibility issues with all OS other than win98, so i found a Real player 2 that takes care of this problem. It converts files...

Pros: It's a little little dream
Cons: Big problems with the software

this player rocks, un-fortunately the software was created by some-one from the stone-age. I've been playing arround and come up with some fixes - because believe me once you've got this baby you will not want to return it because of software conflicts....

Pros: Sleek Design, Easy to use, Quick Transfers, large memory
Cons: Battery usage, the original software sucked but i downloaded a new program from Sony

After purchasing this, I wondered if it was really worth the amount I paid. After using it and noticing how good of sound quality and how much easier to carry around than a CD player, i realized that it was a great buy. I usually can store about 18...

Pros: Small and beautiful
Cons: Expensive, average sound quality

This Sony is the smallest mp3 player in the world. It is also arguably the most beautiful mp3 player in the world. But is it the best mp3 player in the world? Hardly. The box clearly states that this mp3 player was only to be used with pc's...

Pros: Physical Size, Material made with, Features, and Brand.
Cons: COST, Software (OpenMG), and Cable

My experience using this product:
The Sony NW-E3 is very small indeed, so small that I can't even find it in my backpack sometime. The buttons are not BIG, and it doesn't come with a remote like the MDs. The indigo backlit is really nice, it...
