Es un radio portátil muy completo, con funciones muy útiles, su tamaño es el adecuado para transportarlo por toda la casa; también me gusta la opción de conectarlo a la corriente eléctrica o utilizarlo con pilas, el sonido es aceptable y lo mejor para mi, que tiene la opción de grabar música o tus programas preferidos.

I really like the look and sound of this radio. The reason I bought it was to be able to play a thumb drive of mp3 music and old radio programs downloaded from free sites on the net like Old Time Radio internet archive and play them while preparing lunch and dinner. I also liked the fact that the unit has an a/c power cord so I don't have to worry about charging or replacing batteries. I am very pleased with the sound and easy controls. However, my unit would not play my USB thumb drive. Since this ability was the prime - if not the only -- reason I purchased the unit, I planned to return it. But before returing ir (because I liked it so much), I contacted Retekess support. They immediately responded with a list of suggestions, one of which was not to use a thumb drive larger than 16 Gigs. Well....THAT was my issue since the drive I initially used was 64 Gigs. I copied mp3 files on to another smaller drive with a capacity of less than 16 Gigs and now the radio plays the USB MP3 files JUST PERFECTLY. And there are hours of play on that smaller flash stick. I recommend highly.
That one guy.

I've put this radio beside a top tier Sangean with "great reception" and a RCA Superadio III with "best reception." At my house this radio has the cleanest signal on both AM and FM. I haven't even tried shortwave, as no one is currently broadcasting on shortwave. The speaker is big and sounds great, whether listening to news and podcasts or music. I'm getting an FM station from 60 miles away that is perfectly clear. Function is easy and excellent. I can't comment on battery life as I use the AC adapter most of the time.

I am not a portable radio connoisseur but as your an average joe just looking for a decent little radio, I think I made the right choice.Pros: • Good size radio, it's got a good thick width to it so it feels sturdy. • The dials work as intended, the volume control is sensitive but I don't see that as a bad thing. Very light touch is all you need. • USB / SD / Micro SD ports are a great added function for this radio. I've put Classical Music on a small usb (so it doesn't protrude from the side too much) and it works perfectly. Just switch the dial to 'usb' turn on the radio via the Volume dial and have fun. • The speaker sounds great as well, good sound quality in my opinion. • The actual stations area is easy to read and navigate with the Tuning dial on the side. • AM / FM come in great. I don't even have the antenna extended and I get great reception. I haven't used SW yet but I can imagine it works as intended depending on your location. • The handle is great as well, easy to carry around. The radio itself isn't overly heavy, just a good weighted sturdy feel while being easily portable. Cons: • I think the only con I could see is maybe the price, though I'm not really upset having gotten this for $37 as I've seen this radio go for much more elsewhere.All in all: This is a good portable radio, worth the money.

This is an excellent tabletop radio that's portable enough to carry anywhere to listen. D batteries and AC cord options make it versatile. The Micro/SD and USB slots (all 3) are very nice. Sitting near an exterior wall of my house, and near a window, it tunes in SO MUCH MORE than I can tune in any of my cars or other tuners in the house (AM and FM). Shortwave is usable with the telescopic antenna, but a long-wire out the window really makes it come alive. Of course, time of day, weather, other factors influence SW more than AM and FM. It also picks up stations that overlap, and it's possible to tune them sometimes better when coming from either side of that frequency (sweeping from R to L or L to R on the dial back and forth VERY slowly, I find I can tune some stations in better when they're close to others). For Shortwave, there is a TON of frequency space jammed into one little dial (some radios have 8-12 separate bands on a switch, but here, there're all on the same single dial) - PREPARE TO TUNE VERY S L O W L Y, or you'll miss stations. This isn't difficult though.Sound quality is very nice. It's won't reproduce deep bass, and it doesn't have screaming highs. It won't shake the table, or itself much for that matter, but sounds full and will play loud enough to fill a room for all in it to hear. It won't shake the walls, and is certainly no boombox.Pros:- D Batteries and AC option- mp3/wma compatibility, 32GB max card size for SD/MicroSD- Very selective and sensitive tuner- Controls are easy to read, use, and have a positive feel.- Decently long telescoping antenna, feels sturdy and heavier than some smaller radios- Great sound for all day listening, music, talk radio, background, but can be increased to fill a room so others can hear too.Cons:- Handle feels cheap - very thin plastic, but heavy enough to do the job. Doesn't feel like it's going to break.- The display only works in mp3/USB mode.- The light stays on all the time in mp3/USB mode. This will reduce battery life- The tuner has an odd gain control function where a station will be faint, but then get a lot louder all of a sudden. This really isn't a bad thing, but it takes getting used to. It doesn't tune like a completely manual tuner since it's DSP.I'd recommend this radio to anyone looking to get a functional, easy to use, solid radio that's easy to move around and sounds decent for low to medium listening volume either close up or from across a room.
