Review on ๐Ÿ“ป Panasonic Portable AM/FM Battery Powered Radio with LED Tuning Indicator, 5 Core Technology for Best Sound and Reception, Compact Size, Plug Option Included โ€“ Includes 4 AA Batteries and Cleaning Cloth by Kristi Ratz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This device worked very well but stopped working after 5.5 months.

Bought late January 2020 now this radio turns off after 69-90 seconds. Reconnects after a few smacks/knocks, but disconnects again after 60-90 seconds. And yes, the batteries have been changed, but the problem is the same. Repairing consumer electronics in the 21st century is not really possible as we are no longer dealing with solder joints, tubes etc. but with blocks of semiconductor integrated circuits that either work or don't. The solid state circuits supplied by Panasonic are sub-standard and the return/replacement policy offered by this Revain Marketplace seller is inadequate given the poor quality of the products. It ended after 30 days. I need another radio but I will no longer be using this model or the Marketplace retailer as the current transaction turned out to be a $10 per month usage fee, let's call it.

Pros
  • Long range
Cons
  • So so
