Philips SBD7500 review: Philips SBD7500

Philips SBD7500

The Philips SBD 7500 is a simple and elegant portable speaker that is compatible with the iPod or iPhone and offers beefy sound for its price.

The speaker is light on features, lacking extras such as FM radio, remote control, and Bluetooth.

If you're looking for a basic, portable iPod and iPhone speaker that is exceptionally easy to use, the Philips SBD 7500 is a solid choice for less than $100.

Philips SBD7500 review

No, we don't like James Morrison...The built in iPod / iPhone speakers are great. Great when your out in the town and want to share your music. But when your in your home or workspace, and wish to play your music at a reasonable volume and for several...

Also, later on you use “it's” to mean the possessive of “it”, whereas it really means “it is”.

Easy to Carry & Use, Sounds Great, Very Durable!

Great sound for such a small unit. This has fallen from our 2nd story deck a few times crashing into the brick below and continues to go strong. Portable and perfect anywhere. A top pick for under $100. Sounds great, looks good and we love it.

The built in, pop out stand could have a larger foot, which would prevent it from falling, (from our 2nd floor deck) but other than that small wrinkle, I have no other negative comments

AWFUL

I've had this product replaced twice now and both times the speaker has been fine the first few days (good sounds quality, easy to use ect.) however it decides not to turn on after those few days. And obviously then the speaker is no use to anyone.
