Sony Walkman E453 Review And Specification. Sony Walkman technology companies have been banging out the MP3 player is consistently good for several years now. The Sony E453 Walkman is the latest product from sony.

The design of the 4GB E453 is sleek, with a gloss front and matt back. Controls on the device are kept to a minimum, with all the main functions you need situated on the front of the device. Sony has decided to put the 3.5mm jack at the bottom of the E453, nestled next to the mini USB slot.

Sony Walkman E453 Review And SpecificationSony E Series Walkman: Playback and features. When it comes to music playback, though, the headphones supplied do a decent job and the sound lacks the tinniness you normally get with budget players.

There’s some nice creative flourishes with the E Series. The stand out is Karaoke mode. Load the device up with LRC (Lyrics Sync) files and you can sing along to your favourite tunes, with the player turning down the sound of the vocals on the songs. Yes it’s a gimmick but at least it’s a fun one.

Alongside music you can view photos and videos (MP4, AAC and WMV9). Unfortunately, the playback of video was less than inspiring. The 2.0-inch QVGA screen is just too small to view media on for long periods.

Sony E Series Walkman: Battery and memory. Using the player for a number of days we found that you can get a stupidly decent 40-plus hours out of the battery, very close to the 50 hours Sony is quoting, and with a mere three-hour recharge, it doesn’t take long to get the thing back to full juice.

As for memory, our version packed 4GB, but there is also an 8GB (NWZ-E454) and 16GB (NWZ-E455) available for £89 and £109 respectively. When it comes to the price of the NWZ-E453, it’s a mere £65 online which is decent for what is offes.
