Surprisingly neat little device, especially for the money!
I picked this up alongside another similar product to test both and I'm very surprised how well this device keeps up with the other device that costs 4x more.The packaging is nothing special but it comes with the accessories you need plus a carry case. Unboxing the actual player itself reveals it is relatively compact: nothing like the discman devices of the 90s/2000s that weren't so much larger than the CD inside, but compared to the other new device I have, it is reasonably sized. It's about the diameter of a CD and reasonably chunky.Loading a CD works great and plays fine. No CD Text obviously but otherwise brilliant. The display is basic but clear and backlit. The built in speakers are absolutely terrible as expected, not sure why these were included. You could potentially get a sleeker device without: they should have been left out. However, when paired to Bluetooth headphones, or using the headphone jack, it sounds really great! There's even an option to output over FM at a user-specified frequency which is good for linking up to a car without bluetooth/aux, or to a bedside alarm radio perhaps. This sounds acceptable but obviously is worse than other methods.Only issue I've found is that it can struggle with gapless playback which is a shame for albums that have tracks flowing into one another.

Not a bad cd player
I was pleasantly surprised by this cd player, for the price it's a nice player. I had a discman in the 90's and it used to drive me mad because it constantly jumped when you moved, this player doesn't do that, I've turned it upside down, gently shaken it etc and there's been no skips. The onboard speakers are better quality than I expected, but obviously they're not Bose, you get what you pay for. I've had no issue connecting it to my car and my wireless headphones via Bluetooth. It's disappointing that the I'm stereo only works when connected to the car and not through the unit itself. The volume goes up to level 15, with very little distortion, and that is mostly from the bass. The headphones that came with it do the job, but once again, theyre not top of the range. The headphone jack appears quite solid. The sleep function works well and the blue light isn't too bright, but if it bothers you at night, it does switch off relatively quickly. It has nice, velvety soft bag to protect it, i would have prefered if it didnt say CD PLAYER in big white letters on it because I think that makes it a theft target. It's a shame you have to turn it over to insert the disc on the bottom and that it's a tad bulky, but it's definitely worth the money.

Pretty Good
Got a good deal on this; it cost me less than the advertised price, so was a bargain. Seems well made. Sound quality through blue tooth headphones is good but slightly dark and bassy for my taste. Btw, I had to turn off bluetooth connectivity on all other devices before getting the BT to work. Sound through the in-built speakers is maybe slightly better than old transistor radio quality. The supplied headphones are unfortunately dreadful but the overall package is good including a bag and an aux cable for plugging into an audio system.I was confused by the FM transmission function, initially thinking it meant it had an inbuilt radio. It doesn’t. It enables you to play the CD on an fm receiver, I think. Why would you want to? Hmmm.I bought this for the blue tooth connectivity which my existing player doesn’t have, and to be able to skip tracks, which hitherto has been awkward as the old player’s remote control no longer works. With this new machine I can do everything without rising from my sofa, which for a lazy old so and so like me, is great.One annoying common defect with CD players now produced is that where tracks are supposed to segue into one another, they don’t and there’s a gap. I tested this with ‘Abbey Road side 2’ and, sure enough, the medley doesn’t play continuously. Why this issue occurs I don’t know- it only affects some albums but certainly detracts from the listening experience where it occurs.Overall then, don’t expect perfection but for the price, I’m pretty happy.

Fantastic little player
Fantastic little player. Just perfect for what I wanted. The sound is perfect and I like my music load so I am very pleased.Easy to use and the bag is great to keep the player tucked away. Recharges quickly too.

New Greadio Discman 2025 - Great Retro Portable CD Player
Great bit of retro kit. Super CD Player with added Bluetooth connectivity. I bought the Greadio DiscMan 2025 Portable CD Player as I found old French/ Spanish language courses on CD Discs and DiscMan has been a great aid so far. It works with the included Headphones or with its own stereo speakers but you can also attach your own Bluetooth headphones / external speakers. All connected easily with decent quality sound throughout. I'm happy so far

Word Kept!
Because I was looking for a small, lightweight CD Player, - which I could carry and use anywhere, - I chose this product.The details about the Player suited my needs.Also, the price was reasonable!It arrived safely, and very well packaged!I am pleased with the sound.There is a neat black bag... where the machine fits in snuggly!Because of my lack of understanding regarding setting up, I saw on the card that came with it: "Just email us and we will solve your problem immediately", - so I emailed!There was a quick, kind and helpful advice from Lois!The FM Transmission Function was solved!Then, I wanted to know more about the use of the Player's Bluetooth!Again, quick, kind and helpful information from Lois!Customer Service by the GreadioTeam is excellent!That is why I have given the title: "Word Kept" to the Review!

Do Not Buy- Faulty
The media could not be loaded. Was super excited to get this as I miss playing my CDs and I thought this would be great as it has a built in speaker and and connect to the car but unfortunately it just keeps skipping so I'll be sending it back.
