NWZ-E345

The NWZ-E345 offers the largest storage in the late 2009 E Series lineup. It extended the multimedia capabilities of the family. With 16 GB flash memory supporting MP3, WMA, AAC, and WAV playback, video, and photo, it uses a 240x320 TFT display and lithium-ion battery for 30 hours, including FM radio.

The E345 caps that same late E family and gives the branch its fullest version before Sony kept refining the same low-friction formula into the 2010s. It still carries the same stripped-down, readable identity, but here it feels a little more complete and a little less obviously entry-level.
