Marvelous little radio. 4.5 Stars
Only real negative, battery doesn't run all day.Have to be a little carful with small buttons and big hands, but really works well!I run FM in my house for long range (BT too short), so I broadcast house fm from laptop, then bt from this receiver to my bt headphones. Works great.Script on screen is small but clear.And for the price, I love it.

Works great
Works great right out of the box. It's the perfect size for pockets, and connects to my Bluetooth earbuds very easily.

Good for the price and size
Antenna a little week for my area, added a clip-on antenna to get better reception.

you must whip it
I like listening to public affairs programs while working in the yard. I hate all in- and on-ear audio devices--earbuds, earphones, headphones. I've been hoping to find a pocket-sized radio with an actual speaker to avoid all the issues of tangled cords, failing to stay in place and simple comfort. I'm also not a fan of bluetooth, finding it most often a funky and unreliable connection to any sort of audio source. [I'm sounding especially curmudgeonly this morning.]At first glance, I thought this little radio would be the answer. It had going for it an actual built-in speaker, convenient size, digital tuning and display, rechargeable battery and (judging by the photos in the product description) a manageably short antenna--all features I was looking for.Right out of the box it became evident it was not going to meet my needs. See the attached photo for the actual length of the telescoping antenna. It's quite a bit lengthier than they would have you believe. It should be noted that to get any kind of adequate reception, it is necessary to fully extend the antenna. Only under the most ideal conditions could you get away with the couple inches shown in the product images above. That factor alone makes it impractical to carry hands-free in a pocket. [I'm an old guy. I've been around long enough to remember when transistor radios first came on the market. In the days before integrated circuits and microprocessors, even handheld radios were necessarily large enough that an antenna could be fitted internally and the radios could be carried in a larger pocket. I may have to dust off my eight transistor model that I got in the third grade, replace the capacitors and whatever other components have corroded, and see if I can get it working again.]I wasn't expecting much in the way of fidelity, given the radio's size, and so was not surprised at the sound quality. Reception is unsurprisingly not outstanding but adequate. Because of the number of features in a small package, the number of control buttons is necessarily limited and not labeled with all their potential functions and, therefore, not all intuitive. In other words, studying the microscopic text in the manual and memorizing key combinations is necessary for set-up, tuning and other basic operations. To be completely honest: you need to carry a cheat sheet to accomplish anything.The unit is a very portable size. See the attached photo for its dimensions relative to my northern European male, glove size Large hand. Along with the other positives mentioned in the second paragraph above, it can be a good choice in the right applications. For me, it's a minor disappointment. I'll give it two and a half to three stars, meaning "It's not quite okay."

Cool little gadget with lots of fun features
This radio is super cool! It has a bunch of features and so far has worked great. The instructions are straightforward and really easy to understand and the interface for the radio is really quick and easy to learn. It has Bluetooth features, FM and AM options, and it does some other things like displays the date and time along with an alarm clock/stopwatch. It has worked well and doesn’t have a problem searching the stations in my area and the little speaker quality on it is great! It’s a fun little thing to play around with, a great gift, or gadget to have. I definitely recommend.
