Review on Pocket AM FM Portable Digital Radio with Alarm Clock - Exceptional Reception and Long-lasting Performance. Battery-Operated AM FM Compact Radio Player with 2 AAA Batteries, Stereo Headphone Socket (Black) - Vondior by Andre Arias

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hand-sized radio in shirt pocket

OVERALL Super slim. Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and in a polo shirt pocket. Good reception CONTROLS Arrow keys below the digital display Volume keys on the right Convenient memory keys Rotatable but well protected design For context I use my medium sized male hand as a frame as this model is best used as a pocket radio. WIDTH 2.25" Smaller than my thumb. 4" LENGTH So, from my wrist to my fingers (medium sized male hand). AM/FM RECEPTION for strong stations is OK in South San Francisco Bay. BUT poor FM reception on the other side of the dial for remote NPR stations beyond 50 miles I am however in the RF shadow at the foot of a coastal mountain range POWER SUPPLY Two AAA batteries Suggestion A small lanyard or finger ring would be handy. On the other hand, the lanyard can affect the function of a pocket radio e.g. by tangling with the handle etc. CONCLUSION The Vondior 828 is a good buy if you always want to have a radio with you. Sometimes less is better.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
