Pocket friendly pocket radio
I own about thirty radios, six by Prunus. I was very happy with this one. It is definitely value for money. The build could be better, and the vhatging cable type C instead of the oldest type. There is no Bluetooth. Now the goodies. Battery life is good. So is reception on all bands. The sound is great, specially through a pair of good headphones. Oh, a point they failed to mention. The headphone outpui is in stereo, both from FM and MP3 player. A nice surprise!

Remember those transistor radios from Japan in the early sixties? They had a great size but a terrible sound. Well, here you have the same size but a fantastic sound. I love this little radio. It fits in your pocket. You can put it on your window ledge when you're eating breakfast and hear great music immediately. You don't have to subscribe to some overpriced service. It's right there - a real radio. The only problem I have is that it's hard to figure out how to set up memory for each station, the directions are very poorly written. So screw that, I just punch in the frequency numbers for the station and, voila immediate satisfaction. If someone can explain how to work the memory system. I would really appreciate it. But don't let that stop you from getting this radio, the one with the real antenna attached. You won't regret it.

This little radio/player really packs a punch. Sound is clear and crisp and goes quite loud as well. The re-chargeable battery last quite a long time too. Its small enough to fit in your pocket. Besides having am/fm and shortwave, you can also load up a usb chip or a sd microchip or both with your favorite music and listen that way. Very easy to program the stations in. {just hold the play/pause for 3 seconds and it will scan and store all stations} Seems very solid and well made. This product will be going with me to work, so that I can listen to baseball/hockey games or just my stored music. Only drawback is it doesn't have a battery indicator, but no big deal. Ordered a few more since buying the first one. If you buy this you won't regret.

Reception is clear and loud if you wish it too be!Tuning is so easy and being digital no guessing if you have the correct station. Quality is superb and love the bright color! Very easy to carry with you wherever I use it at work. No batteries needed you just recharge! Can't get any better. I have bought many transistor radios and this is the Best! I would definitely buy another one!!

I bought this for one reason... to play my music on the USB port. But it is not working out very well for me. The music plays in whatever order it wants to. That i could work around. I just coppied the list of MP3's then put the USB into the player. It played # 7 first. I re-numbered all my music to fit what the player decided was the order. Now it played in the order it was numbered in. Kind of capitulating to it's desires. LOL BUT I cannot live with the fact that it will sometimes tend to start in the middle of a tune or even near the end. The replay works, but it is almost impossible to get it off the re-play. And if I request , say, #7, it will happily play #10. Trying to get it to play #1 is very hard. It insists on playing where it left off. Pushing the reverse button will not do anything to help the middle-of-a-tune situation, and will only go back one tune if you insist. Sigh. The other functions of the player work great. The sound is good. And if you are not trying to use it as a boom box and have it heard throughout the house, it will be just fine. It is meant to be with you on your desk or work place. Not in another room. It finds and plays any station that it can pick up in your area. And switching to them works okay, but i don't listen to the radio at all, just tapes, CD's and USB's. So sadly i will have to return it and find another one.
