Review on πŸ“» LEMEGA M2P Internet Radio: Bluetooth Speaker & Portable Digital Radio with FM, Headphone Out, Alarms Clock, Rechargeable Battery, Colour Display, App Control - Walnut Finish by Jamie Behm

Revainrating 2 out of 5

That's a good radio, but Lemega cut the ESSENTIAL.

If you need a radio that can pick up radio stations from all over the world, then this is the radio for you. But Lemega missed the most important feature of EVERY internet radio. All the others I've seen can be registered in the central database. This allows you to set up many, many favorites ONCE ON ONE RADIO and then broadcast that list to any other radio you may have. But Lemaga does NOT allow this on this model. This is a serious problem unless you want to search and save 40 or 50 stations every time you get the radio. This is also important if you change the favorite channels list, as the registered radio will automatically change its station list accordingly. There are other problems too. Bluetooth is, well, very weak. I've repeatedly seen the radio freeze when trying to use it as a Bluetooth speaker. It works with some devices and crashes with others. There are also pleasant moments. The sound is good, not great like the wonderful Roberts Stream 94i, but it's half the price and easily available in the US. Aside from the awful omission I mentioned above, it uses the reliable Frontier Nuvola software used by most internet radio today, so that's a plus. Externally, the lamp body is very stylish and goes well with any modern interior. Radio like a sports car. Pleasant to own and impressive handling. But it's like a sports car
