Panasonic SL-SX420 Personal CD Player

Pros: Plays mp3’s, easy to use, long battery life, compact design.
Cons: Limited amount of memory, bigger than most mp3 players, doesn’t play Burned DVD’s.

When I asked to borrow this from my brother I never intended to review it. After all I have about 50 products in my review folder that need to be tended to. But after using this cd/mp3 player I had to post my take on it. This is just a simple cd ...

Pros: Low battery drain, good sound quality, good MP3 support
Cons: Skip protection needs some work

The Panasonic SL-SX420 is the fifth or sixth portable CD player I've bought myself for use at work in the past four years. After a string of disappointments, I was starting to think of portable CD players in general as commoditized and disposable. ...

Pros: It plays MP3s! Shake-and-bake stability, low price!
Cons: Not loud enough to damage your hearing (that's a con?)

My wife purchased a Panasonic SL-SX420 Personal CD Player this summer at Target before ...

Pros: Excellent battery life, decent sound, very lightweight, doesn't skip
Cons: cheap headphones, durability is just a little questionable

I've had this player now for about a month, and I can't really complain. I bought it to replace my R ...

Pros: Remote Control, Hold feature to save battery, and prevent accidentally stopping playback, price
Cons: no ID3 tags, no radio or adapter, takes few seconds to read mp3 CDs.

I just bought this item today at Circuit City, and I'm very glad I did. The price is great, and it h ...

Pros: Price, Ease of use, Sound modes
Cons: Skips, No Display but time, Cheap headphones, Load times

The Panasonic SL-SX420 is an 'ok' Mp3 Cd-Player. It was actually my first Cd-Player which I used for at least 6 months so far and I am still using it, for cds anyway. I recommend switching to a low-cost Mp3 Player as an alterative. Price ...

Pros: Plays MP3 files (even VBR), battery life, no skipping, price
Cons: No LCD screen.

This is the best portable CD player I have owned, bar none. I usually have some pretty bad luck with portables. Over the last four years I owned four different models (from Sony, TDK and Panasonic), and they all either broke or became obsolete quick. I ha ...

Pros: Inline remote, Folder navigation, decent sound, very pretty
Cons: long start up time, no fast forward for Mp3s, STOPS WORKING FOR NO REASON!

I really liked the sleek design of this CD player and the inline remote, the two biggest factors in my decision to purchase it. I figured that because it was name brand it would be durable and of good quality. Man oh man, was I wrong. Two weeks after ...

Pros: Cool looking, good sound, great price, no skipping, lots of features.
Cons: On playing MP3 some unwarranted noise between tracks, not so long battary life.

I bought this thing at Circuit city two weeks ago. It looks nice, and has a very nice sound. I bought also Koss earphones, not relying on supplied cheep earphones (and indeed, this was a justified purchase). I find the sound great. It also plays MP3 ...

Pros: Cheap price Reliability Nice no-skip features Decent battery life
Cons: Can't read tagging Loud noises heard random play Some songs come back for more

I bought this CD player a few weeks ago to replace my old CD player (it's another Panasonic). It couldn't handle the abuse of being in my bookbag, so it only lasted about 4-5 months since I bought the last one; it was rather disappointing. Anyway, this Panasonic CD player is nice, with decent random-play feature (I can't say that it's good, though, since it would often come back to the song it played a few minutes ago... must be the folders I put the files in). Too bad it doesn't have a display to show the tags of the MP3 files (which shows artist and title of the song). On the upside, it has a decent battery life (37 hours isn't bad), and it comes with a remote controller. Be careful, though, the headphone that comes with the CD player breaks rather easily.

Pros: smooth playback, great look, Hold, cool looking wired control, long life battery.
Cons: Cheap headphones,no ID3 tags.

I have had this player for about 6 months now. And I had no problems at all. I didn't like the design and quality (to some extent) so I dumped the headphones that came with the player and bought another pair. Now the player rocks. I basically had no desire of having FM in my player so lack of FM isn't really a setback, that was my choice.
The wired control is a great feature.
Though you will definitely find a cheaper player, this one is worth the money.
I highly recommend this set.

Pros: hm... cool design...
Cons: price, low quality sound, cheap headphones are included

At the time im writin this, there are cd players out there for half the price with the same features... I wouldnt buy this if i were u... but i did... stupid me... it doesnt play wma's clearly... panasonic's support is bad... but if ur desperate and this is the only cd on earth... go ahead... otherwise....
