Digital camera reviews of Panasonic SL-PH270 Portable CD Player with 40-Second Anti-Shock and Built-In Speakers

Digital camera Review: Great product but doesn't have mp3 formats
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a great product, even compared to today's cd players. The unit is built to last and feels strong compared to today's cheap products that you find at the stores for the same price range. It plays cd-r very well and handles scratches pretty good too. Don't let it's 40 second anti skip make you think that this is a weak product. It has this motion swing aid which works marvelously. What this means is that when you hold it on your hand and swing it while running or walking, it doesn't skip. That and add the 40 seconds anti skip to it and it would be very hard to here a single skip. It isn't ideal for running ofcourse but it will give you a good lap before it shows its weakness. The speaker on it isn't great, just a twiter but it helps you let your buddies preview a small portion of a song. It has a hold button that will lock every button on the unit but not the volume. I've had this unit for about 3 years and it still works pretty good with a couple of dents. This unit isn't good for a steam room, sauna, or any place that has humidity in it. This i know for a fact. Placing it in a hot car doesn't harm it cause i've done it several times. The bad point is that it has no MP3 support and so most people pass this unit for the newer players.

Digital camera Review: I bought it for the speakers
Summary: 5 Stars

I also bought this cd player for its speakers and based on the reviews that I read. First let me say that when one buys this product they must think what is the purpose for the speakers. I bought it thinking that it would be cool to have a little travel cd player that I could use and have one other listen to. I think it is great for having a cd player in a hotel room, or in other places that you usually would take a disc man but not take a portable cd player. Lets face it, everyone has a cd player at home and a disc man is for travel. The sound is perfect for one or two, or a small group. Obviously know one is going to have a party with the player, but if your purpose is to have a very small cd player that you can use for travel than this is perfect, becuase it can be used alone, or it can be used in a small group. I think the sound volume is just what I expected based on the product and its size.

Digital camera Review: I have a question about this pro. not ans. on review
Summary: 4 Stars

I walk and like to play my cd's. Can you play this while walking. I have made a shoulder keeper for the purpose of placing a cd player in it when I walk. Will the motion of walking interfer w/this player? Please reply. Ann Carter-Combee

Digital camera Review: It does its job great... just a few things I would fix..
Summary: 4 Stars

It's great! The volume is actually better than I expected, and it isnt all that bulky. I find it very satisfying, and good for ocasions when music for you or for everyone are just what the doctor ordered. (like waiting in line for then hours, on long car trips when they stole the radio, or just play it out loud during lunch for you and your friends at school)
The only very minor things I notice are;
-it doestn let you know how much battery you have left until youve almost run out.
-I never did quite get the "hang on the wall" screww in thing, so I put a strap there to hang it off my wrist instead.
- I really didnt like the earphones it included so I bought new ones.

Digital camera Review: It was exactly what I wanted!
Summary: 5 Stars

I was looking for a small CD player with external speakers and an anti-shock feature so I could put it in the handlebar bag of my bicycle. At first, I wasn't sure 40 seconds of anti-shock would be enough for bicycling (on what is frequently rough pavement) but it has been flawless. If it is playing in a room, the speakers aren't great, but for my purposes they are the perfect thing. The sound is vastly improved when wearing earphones, but that is too dangerous while bicycling - I save that for when I'm at home. There wasn't a lot of choice for players with external speakers and I was so pleased this worked out so well.
