Pocket AM FM Radio Portable Digital Tuning Radio with Best Reception - Hapito Personal Small Transistor radios with Sterio Earphone, Rechargeable Battery and Lock Screen for Walk/Gym (Black)

After 2 1/2 years of daily use my former Btech gave out with inoperable buttons and a swollen case so I thought I'd try this one which is very similar but 40% cheaper in price. So far I think it's a bit better but I wish it had the same size charging plug as I have for my phone and the former radio. This one is bigger and charges from a HDMI port.I'm pleasantly surprised by the superior feel of the buttons and the quality of the sound on both AM and FM. I hope it lasts. The user friendliness is enhanced by the simple way to preset individual stations and the rational key layout; however, I'm a bit surprised that the clock does not offer a 12 hour time format option with no instructions to even tell you how to set the 24hr time. You have to go online for instructions for that which is a bit frustrating since that's logically the first thing you do after you fully charge the battery,

The product was shipped very promptly. Unfortunately only 1 of the ear buds works

I can't really complain, it was cheap enough. It is quite small, and it helps to have small fingers to operate it and I don't have tiny fingertips. I'm always leery about these rechargeable batteries even at the miniscule scale as this. The instructions were, to me, like the Chinese, quite inscrutable. It will sit in its box for dire emergencies. UPDATE: now that I have been using it a while, my opinion has changed. It is easy to carry in my pocket while walking. The recharge feature beats buying batteries and the charge lasts for quite a few hours- for me, a couple of days. I have learned to use the functions on my own. It is a useful small radio which took me some getting used to. I learned that it just what I needed for what I bought it for. Two stars have been added to the rating.

Excelente gracias

I’m a mail carrier and being on the street all day gets long. I was really excited about getting this pocket radio. Because then I can keep my phone in the truck and save the batterie on my phone. When it came in i set it up where I would be using it. I work in a big City and I shouldn’t have a problem getting reception and getting quite a few channels. When I programmed it all I got was Hispanic channels. When I got it tuned to a channel of my liking it would change without me doing anything. My boyfriend has a similar pocket radio that he’s had for years because he is also a mail carrier. He tried tuning the radio for me thinking he can get it. But like me all I could get was Hispanic channels. Like I said i work in the city and I shouldn’t have that kind problem even with the antenna up.Other than that it’s a nice little radio can’t use it now But I have it.

They serve the purpose, but can't have them plugged in to the charger and listening at the same time or you get feedback interference and static from the power

I have used this to listen to the radio broadcast during 2 live football games. The battery held up well even in Florida heat in direct sun. Switching between stations/modes is fairly easy and the controls/screen are simple. The included earbuds fit my smaller ears well and provide a good seal against the loud environment of a football stadium. The included lanyard is great too.

Pick up a lot of music. Sound quality good, reminds me of the Walkman from my youth.
