Strengths: Sleek design. Light weight compared to other MP3/CD Players. Waterproof buttons is very nice. Comes with a DC Adapter so don't have to pay additional for that. Good Price.
Weakness: Even though the head phone design and style is very innovative, it will be good if it comes with a little adjusting option. Also the top cover design comes with only one color(Orange).
The pricewise, designwise this is a very good buy. Again it depends on each individual on what they are expecting from a MP3/CD Player. I was shopping around for a Player that is light weight, has more skip protection timing and with a DC Adapter. And I found all the things I am expecting for in this Nike-Philips Model including low price. Good buy for your money.
Strengths: plays CD-R and CD-RW smoothly so I can burn many MP3.
Weakness: 1. too heavy to carry 2. magnet is too heavy to attach to anywhere
It is a great product if you carry it for a walk, or use it in a gym. However, I do not recommend carry it when doing extreme sports (not even running), since it is really too heavy to carry. The magnet is supposed to be a convenient addition, but it is also too heavy to be practical.
Strengths: Gives the impression of good engineering. Feels sturdy, loads and reads CDs very fast.
Weakness: Batteries are hard to remove. The headphone cord is also rather short (though these are relatively minor problems)
An overall solid unit with nice accessories. Looks cool, doesn't feel cheap. I will be using my own pair of headphones, but its nice to have everything bundled with the player.
Strengths: long battery life. Cool appearance.
Weakness: Uncomfortable headphone
I bought this CD/MP3 player because I hate uploading MP3 files to a flash MP3 player. Although this player is little bit large, but I don't care. Two AA batteries can play near 10 hours that makes me very happy. The bad thing is that the headphone is very very very uncomfortable. I don't know how did they design it! Have to buy another headphone to replace it.
Strengths: It is a very good, robust with lot of clearity in it.
Weakness: Does not have the features compared to a ipod
It is a very good CD/MP3 player and it is from a name brand Philips which has good quality reputation. Nice clear voice and can play both the CD and MP3 format disks.
Strengths: Sleek design, MP3 Support, Sporty look
Weakness: No FM Radio
Spend $20 to get this player. No complaints. It is a good product for the price I paid. Go for it :)
Strengths: Solid attractive body, waterproff buttons, Good sound Quality.
Weakness: The head phones are not very comfertable
AC adaptar is very useful companent included in the deal. Also overall looks are impressive. Also the remote control is also goodlooking. Only thing which can be disadvantage is the headphones, they are not very comfertable. In all its worth buying.
Strengths: Very innovative and fancy design. Easy to use. Works great with CDs and MP3s.
Weakness: There is no adjustment on headphone.
It's a very adorable CDplayer, fancy look, easy to use, great for its price. The only thing is the headphone. No adjustmnet makes the sound not that good as using other headphones. I am using Sony headphone, it works perfectly with this CD!!! Well, it's a good buy!!!!
Strengths: Easy to use. Nice looking.
Weakness: Head phone is a little short.
I just got it recently. This is my first CD/MP3 player. I enjoy listening to CD with this player and it is very easy to use. The only thing I was disappointed was that headphone is short. I think I need to buy a new one. Other than that, I am very pleased with it. The price was right !!!

Strengths: good sound, excellent display. good remote setup, with all the magnets Looks really stylish
Weakness: The jogger strap has to be removed each time to put in a new cd. The headphones which come standard are pretty bad and restrictive. The volume control on the remote doesnt actually control volume
The jogger strap can be designed better, its a real pain to take off and put on. The headphones which come standard are really bad and uncomfortable, but you could get over this by buying a really cheap pair from the store. The original stuff is good enough to jog with. The volume control on the remote does not actually control the volume, unless you set the volume on the maximum setting, it just...
