Strength:
This discman is surprisingly durable. I have dropped it a number of times, and it keeps on ticking. I have to say its much more reliable than any other mobile entertainment I've had before.
Weakness:
The battery case has a tendency to open up in my pocket, but this is pretty much because of lack of plastic tension. Also, it may need repairs because of occasional laser difficulties; the CD skips when the discman is perfectly still. Tough peice of plastic, but kind of annoying...

I actually have the D-EJ616CK, which is identical to the 611, but also comes with a car kit. This was one of the most satisfying buys I've ever made. It is my constant companion at school, on the road(using the car kit), and when I'm doing the boyfriend thing at the mall. This thing looks good! To me, it's one of the best looking on the market. My girlfriend complains that I lust after my discman more than for her.
Weakness:
Cover is slightly wobbly, and is made of plastic. If the cover was metal, this would be almost a perfect product. This is a wonderful product, but I would recommend buying the D-F61 or D-F65, as they are almost identical, but also feature AM/FM tuners. |

Strength:
(I have the D-EJ610, just the UK version) The sound, the weight, and totally jog proof
Weakness:
The headphone's found their way to the bin....very quickly. Add £20 to the total price of this discman, because you will need new headphones. This is great of the money, you really cannot beat the weight and size. It is defaintly one of the best looking discmans out, and is impossible to jog. This thing is even hard to make skip with the jog proof turned off. I never have jog proof turned on (to save on batteries) and it has never skipped on me once. It still has anti-shock with jog protection turned on. Also, still on the plus side, it has a line out, dynamic bass, hold option, LCD screen and digital volume control (including AVSL). The batteries are supposed to last 32hours, but actually last about 20 hours with g-protection off and 10 with g-protection on. Similar Products Used: Techniks 10-second anti shock (they forgot to tell be it would constantly skip) |

Uhm, it's kinda small, in a crappy sort of way. The sound isn't too bad, but........it is.
Weakness:
Where to begin...crappy build, crappy plastic, bad connections in headphone and lineout ports, loose buttons, PLASTIC gears (jaw on the floor). Over the past 11 years, I have watched the quality of Sony's products steadily descend. With the new line of Discmen this year, the "Crappiness" hits a rock bottom. The price was very cheap for a "Coming of age Discman," but the inexpensive pricetag is matched only by a cheaper made model. To put it another way, this discman sucks. I have never been ashamed of a sony discman yet. But this is an embarrassment to the company. The sound on the unit is terrible. It is beyond me why they every stopped using digital filters and oversampling. Loose buttons, lid, GEARS!!!, and more add the frustration. Though this Discman doesn't audibly skip, it is aparent that every shake to the system is a cut off of its life, which probably isn't very long. One good drop and this one's in the dumpster. Well, the D-303 is the best one that I've had yet, I guess I'll just stick with that one. Similar Products Used: Sony Discmen D-9, D-303, D-11, D-131, D-141, D835k, D-E561 |

Weakness:
Flimsy, not that well built... Headphone/Remote plug... Buld Quality I cant believe i got this great player for FREE, after my parents redeemed their credit card points.

Strength:
High level of skip protection. Rather small, fairly durable and Digital volume control.
Weakness:
Not backlit, kind of lacking in default bass. I purchased this as a replacement for my Panasonic CD player since I'm usually active while using it. Has never skipped while I was running. The earbuds that come with the Canadian version of this don't sound that great and they're a little too big compared to the cheap Sony ones that you can buy. Overall though, its a good CD player for the money and can compete with the more expensive CD players. Similar Products Used: Panasonic |
