    Second MP3 player

    Use this mostly when gardening but the first player was full and I wanted to be more selective on the songs I put on it. I like my original one and thought that I was buying the same product again. Turns out this model 16GB is different and the HOLD is easier to mistakenly turn on and off..Just reminds me to check the specs more closely. This model feels cheaply made.

    This is my first MP3 player. I would have like printed instructions, but they are available online. Once I figured out how to use it, it was easy. It has a lot more features than I thought at first. A great product for the price.

    This sony mp3 player is really good and it doest cost as much as an ipod. I have always trust sony products such as tv, walkmans, cd player, etc. Back in the days, I love the walkmans they had and I purchase many of then, this is why I trust sony mp3 players.

    It is getting harder to find a 'simple' MP3 player

    MP3 players are hardly dinosaurs but they're getting pretty difficult to find without an abundance of excess. Even this came with a bunch of 'samples' loaded that seem to make navigation unnecessarily complicated. If it wasn't for the junk in the trunk, this would have had 5.

    Major use was for using on car system. Easy to drag and drop songs onto it from computer. Easy to install in car. No extra parts needed, USB cable included for charging/PC. Approximately 2,350 songs = 8.6gb.

    I got this for my daughter. It's easy to load music. I have the older model that has a bigger screen and speakers, this one doesn't. I think Sony did a disservice eliminating those features with the current model. All in all, it's still decent.

    This was a gift to my 11 year old who loves music. I just wish there was an easier way to upload all his music in one shot instead of one song at a time. Once the music is on, its very easy to use.

    The Sony Walkman Nw-e395 16gb* Mp3 Player is a outstanding player that is cheaper than Apple. The sound is great and clear. The only thing is no video can play on it, but I can live with that.

    Sony has removed many features from previous Walkmans. That being said, my daughter loves it. She takes it everywhere and has the music she wants to listen to when she wants it. She creates folders herself and organizes her music manually.
