The playback quality of the music and movies that we tested was very good and at its core the S544 is a decent PMP. Unfortunately it falls down in a number of areas including the Content Transfer software, limited format support, the lack of touch-scr...

Better sound from your mobile? Don’t worry, we’re not talking about the MP3 player in general, just the external speakers. Although the use and/or existence of external speakers may hit a nerve with some of you (oh the joys of public transport), the l...

Sony's NWZ-S544 is an 8GB MP3 player/portable media player designed to compete with Apple's iPod Nano. It offers a better screen for watching video or playing movies, but it doesn't stand up to the iPod's polished music system.The Sony NWZ-S544 sports a pleasing design. We tested the pink model, but a variety of colours are offered. The MP3 player is sturdy but still relatively light, so it doesn't add significant weight to your pocket. The matte finish over most of the body seems to be good...

No Wi-Fi, inferior controls to iPod Nano, poor bundled earphones...
Sony’s mid-level MP3 player competes with the iPod Nano, and while it is superior for video or photo viewing, the interface doesn’t hold a candle to Apple’s tried and tested iPod menu system. If you’re a multimedia enthusiast and d...

Sony’s S-Series player doesn’t have as many swanky features as the X Series: there’s no Wi-Fi and no noise-cancelling feature. The screen is a regular 320 x 240 TFT, rather than a widescreen OLED panel, and it isn’t touch-sensitive. Yet the NWZ-S544’s...
The S Series is an unassuming player that gets almost all of the basics right ...

Do pocket media players need built in speakers? Certainly, apart from the Touch, Apple doesn't seem to think so and let's face it, love it or loathe it, Apple knows a thing or two about selling MP3 players to world+dog. Sonic boon? Sony's Walkman NWZ-S...
If you want a small media player with built in stereo speakers, then the S544 is a pretty self-recommending choice. It does everything you would expect a modern Walkman to do and the speakers make a better fist of things than you might expect. But des...

Anyone hoping the Walkman NWZ-S544 would score as well as the NWZ-E443 will be disappointed. While in isolation it's still a decent media player, it's something of a step if not necessarily backwards, then definitely sideways from its S Series predecessor...
The Sony NWZ-S544 doesn't quite impress as much as the NWZ-S639F it succeeds, the NWZ-E443 sounds almost as good while costing less and there are better sounding, better featured players out there. But accept its shortcomings and the S544 is still a credi...

Sony's Walkman NWZ-S544 looks and feels classy thanks to its shiny red metal design. It has a slightly bigger screen than the NWZ-E443 and built-in speakers, which are activated using a dedicated switch. As expected, they sound weedy and distort ea...
