Portable AM/FM Radio, Pocket Radio with Excellent Reception | Personal Mini Radio with Digital Tuning Stereo,Rechargeable Battery, Earphone, Lock Screen for Walk/Jogging/Gym/Camping

For well under twenty bucks, you can't expect much, right? Not the case with this little jewel! Somebody really did their homework when they designed this. The buttons are well laid out, the LCD is bright and clear, and the reception is as good as radios costing far more. After only five minutes, I'd auto scanned in all the AM and FM stations and had locked into memory all the ones I wanted to use. And using only a few button pushes allows updating the memory in seconds. Connecting this to an amplified speaker or a pair of headphones gives you amazingly clear stereo FM with loads of separation. Even the AM band was surprisingly sensitive, pulling in all the local stations as well as some from further away. Plus, it recharges very quickly from any USB port. This is a masterpiece of miniaturization along with sturdy construction and terrific function.

I am a senior citizen and have used various Walkman radios for decades on my daily walks. My favorite Sony Walkman has been discontinued, and I decided to try this radio. I was really surprised at the performance of this radio. It is about the same height of a credit card and around ½ inch wide. It fits easily into a t-shirt pocket. The sound is excellent. I have not used the earbuds that came with the radio. Instead, I used my inexpensive on-ear lightweight Panasonic headphones (RP-HT21). So I am not rating the earbuds. I live in a metro area, but one of my presets is an NPR station 30 miles away in another state. The reception for all my pre-set stations is great. Not sure about reception in a rural or remote area. The radio looks expensive and is well made and professional. The instructions are complete but are not well written in English. However, the instructions are OK with a little perseverance. This radio appears to be a bargain for the price. I have had my radio for only two weeks, and I am hoping that it will prove durable in spite of the price. Added nine months later: I have two of these radios & both are durable with no problems or issues.

As other reviiewers noted, if you want to listen to AM you won't be able to pick up any stations. Should not even be marketed as am/fm. However, if you only listen to FM the reception is very good. I use primarily for long walks and the compact size and light weight is super. I couldn't get the earbuds comfortable and changed them out for a better quality pair that work for me. The directions for memory storage and other features are HORRIBLE. The Chinese translator apparently not good at converting to English. I eventually figured it out by trial and error. All that being said, I do like this radio for performance (other than VERY POOR /lack of AM reception). It suits my needs and great FM reception. Holds battery charge well. Overall, I like the product for my use and needs and would purchase again.

I needed a radio for a convention where the program would be broadcast in the frequency range of 72-76 MHz. Most radios only go down to about 88 MHz. So this was a great option. It worked great. It has a rechargeable battery which lasted 6-8 hours so I was able to use it each day and recharge it at night. It has memory for radio stations, so it was easy to set the stations I frequently use also. Keep the instruction booklet since the instructions for setting the memory stations isn't obvious.

The FM reception was acceptable and I used the radio for 1-2 hours about twice a week. The earphones failed after a few weeks, but I had alternates so that was no big deal. But today, the display just went blank and reception ceased. Tomorrow will be the end of the seventh week of ownership.

I've been taking daily walks for over twenty years. I appreciate a small battery powered radio to add a bit of spice to a sometimes dreary routine. My rural lifestyle and poor reception presented a challenge. It was tedious to have to hold the radio and constantly shift it's direction in search of noise. This radio is small, light weight and simple to use. Its reception, while not great nor static free, is better than previous radios. I still need to search for reception while walking, but its a real improvement. A major negative is very poor battery life. Rechargeable battery sounded good, but after fully charging it ,it lasted less than 2 1/2 hrs before it was dead as a rock. Big battery negative aside, I'd buy it again because of its reception.
