This radio is a well-rounded performer with excellent reception, especially on MW (AM) and shortwave bands. FM reception holds up well too, making it a reliable all-band companion for everyday listening or travel. Sound quality is surprisingly good for its compact size, with a decent amount of bass and clarity. It includes two audio profiles—Music and Voice—which help fine-tune the sound depending on what you're listening to. While it doesn’t offer a full EQ, these modes provide a useful level of customization. The build feels solid and dependable. One of the most welcome upgrades over the previous version is the rubbery buttons, which offer a much better tactile feel and responsiveness. However, it would be great if the buttons were backlit, as using the radio in the dark can be challenging. The display is also a bit dim, which may affect visibility in bright conditions, though it remains usable. Pros: Excellent MW and shortwave reception Solid FM performance Clear, rich audio with Music/Voice modes Much-improved rubber buttons Sturdy and travel-friendly design Cons: Buttons are not backlit for dark use Display is a bit dim in bright lighting Only basic sound profiles (no full EQ) Verdict: Whether you're into shortwave listening or just want a capable, good-sounding portable radio, this one hits a sweet spot for performance, usability, and value. A thoughtful update over its predecessor, with practical improvements where they matter. Read more

Loisir. Parfait pour une écoute de qualité. Si on n'écoute pas en SSB, pas nécessaire de dépenser plus. Son excellent, facile d'emploi. Heureusement car le manuel est assez moyen. Semble solide et bien conçu. A utiliser avec une antenne filaire de préférence. N'importe quel fil electrique non isolé fera l'affaire. Programmation mémoires tellement simple et logique que la notice ne fut même pas nécessaire... Read more

Un bon petit poste. Il capte très bien (sauf en charge), y compris dans des zones un peu reculées. Il est tout petit et ne prend vraiment pas de place. Les fonction BT et lecteur micro SD ne gachent rien! L'accumulateur est changeable facilement, et cette petite radio dispose d'une bonne autonomie. Read more

Product arrived on time and well packaged. For the record, I am NOT a short wave expert. I am a casual user who likes to surf the bands at times, so this radio and others like it are used for fun as well as for emergency preparedness. I also have a Sangean 909X, which easily cost 4+ times as much as this radio when I bought it back in 2011. That radio is my comparison source. First things first however. This radio has a solid build feel to it. The switches have a nice tactile feel to them. I love the use of the 18650 battery for power (The radio cannot be powered with the battery removed....It MUST be present) because I use that same battery type in many of my high powered flashlights. Now my understanding is that the battery provided in unprotected, meaning that it lacks safety circuitry to prevent overcharge, short circuits, and other issues that could lead to a battery fire. I would highly recommend purchasing a protected 18650 to use in this radio and yes, they DO FIT. I cannot guarantee that every brand will fit, but I was able to install two protected name brand 18650 batteries in this radio with no difficulty. Do not charge the battery unattended. Now all of THAT said, even the lower capacity 18650 battery provided with this radio should power it for a LONG time versus any AAA / AA batteries and likely even better than those that might use C or D cells. Since I can solar charge my 18650 batteries this makes it a great tool for emergency preparedness as well. Now those buttons.....Some are a bit confusing so I do find myself referring back to the operating manual at times, but that should improve with usage and familiarity. The sound quality from the speaker is quite good at this price point. It is mono of course and do not expect Bose quality, but again at this price point...I am very happy. Reception on both FM and shortwave seems to rival every other quality (And much more expensive) radio that I own. I have mixed feelings about AM. It does not seem as good as my other radios but to be fair... I really need to try to outside. It it as good as my CC Radio Plus DX? No, but it is darn close. FM reception was outstanding. On shortwave this radio easily outclassed my Sangean 909X during an indoor test. Yes, it actually did pick up more channels when in scan mode. Now some of that COULD be in how each radio's software is set up...What it selects to stop at versus what it skips. But again...at $45 after the coupon discount?! Obviously at this point I cannot speak to durability, but I can say that I am VERY pleased with my initial impressions. At this point in time I feel that this radio is a bargain at this price due to the speaker's good sound quality and surprisingly good FM and shortwave reception. I will close by saying that I thought about this radio for quite some time before I decided to make the purchase, primarily because I could not believe it would be this good at this price point.....$41 after a $15 coupon.
