Pass this. for radios

Bought this radio because it claims to charge with *ANY* compatible USB cable. NOT CORRECT. You need a rare mini USB cable. (We have a dozen micro-USB cables, but not a single mini-USB.) Poor design. I'm not sure why they couldn't choose the standard cellular micro cable. The battery is a rare and expensive BL5C. Good luck finding a replacement in an emergency. Bad choose. Not sure why regular rechargeable AAs couldn't be used. All buttons are blank. Instead, the labels appear BETWEEN the buttons. That way you never know if the labels are related to the button above. or below. Very small buttons could be twice the size, easier to press, and labeled. But that's not the case. All buttons are raised, not recessed, so you'll hit random buttons if you ever put it in your purse, bag, or pocket. The wrist strap is firmly attached and needs to be cut off with scissors if it bothers you. A tiny "key" is used to stand up the radio. Insert it into the keyhole on the back. It's so small that the radio will easily fall over if you try to change channels or touch it in any way. How hard is it to make a basic radio with decent features? Or even some common sense traits?
