Simple Entry-Level Model

With a plain and simple appearance and basic, intuitive functions, it's clear that the MZ-E20 is an entry-level model designed for markets outside Japan.

The overall design has a nostalgic feel and lacks essential features like a remote control, making it essentially a rebranded version of its predecessor, the MZ-E40.

The body is compatible with AA, capable of holding AA x2  directly or accommodating the BP-DM20 rechargeable battery, providing high flexibility without battery specification constraints. However, this compatibility results in a relatively thick body of nearly 25mm. It offers a rather short play 4 hrs , but it boasts an high output power 15mW + 15mW output through the headphone jack, which is 50% to 200% higher than models from the same period, promising exceptional sound performance.

The unique and bold side-tilted screen design, coupled with the arrangement of operation buttons, allows for easy bare-handed operation, compensating for the lack of a remote control.

However, the body size is comparable to technology from several years ago, and with batteries, it weighs nearly 250g. This bulkiness might not be an issue for the tall and robust Western consumers.
