Released in 2000, the Sharp MD-MT60, MD-SR50, MD-SR60, MD-SR70 and MD-SR75 are the same unit with slight color variations and were supplied with slightly different accessories depending on the model number.

Unlike most portables, the battery is inserted on the right hand side of the player making it one of the few AA battery powered units to have a flat back.

Variant Differences:

MD-SR50: no remote
MD-SR60: non-LCD remote (same unit as SR70?)
MD-SR70: non-LCD remote
MD-SR75: backlit LCD remote, UK unit came with in ear headphones while the Eu model had over-ear.
