R300 je lagani i prenosivi CD plejer namenjen korisnicima svih uzrasta. Kućište je široko 162 mm, duboko 147,3 mm i visoko 32,5 mm. Potpuno modularna struktura koristi standardizovane delove i spojeve koji se lako rastavljaju, tako da se moduli mogu popravljati, nadograđivati i ponovo koristiti u drugim proizvodima iste serije. Pakovanje je papirna kutija koja se može reciklirati. Interfejs je podeljen na levi i desni deo kako bi komande ostale jasne i jednostavne. Podržane su žične i bežične veze, kao i nekoliko audio formata.

Inspiration: Since the 2020s, CD sales have continued to grow as Gen Z has re-pursued retro ways of listening to music and the KPOP market share has exceeded US$5 billion.

Gen Z and older generations have become enthusiastic about CDs again, and there aren’t many ideal CD players on the market, so we wanted to develop a product that would appeal not only to young people who are into pop culture but also to the older generation who are nostalgic and once loved CD culture.
Project Duration: The project started in March 2023 in Shenyang, ended in September 2023 in Shenyang, and was launched in China in October 2023.
Operation Flow: The design of the left and right partitions of the interface highlights the functional area, achieving a more intuitive, reasonable and simple operation experience. The material is touch-up paint, which feels warm.
It retains the classic characteristics of traditional CD players, supports wired and wireless connection methods, ensures a high-quality listening experience, and supports multiple audio formats, meeting multiple needs for convenience, fashion, and high-quality sound effects.
