Love this radio - my new review

It works exactly as I had expected and better! I was looking for a wireless radio that could also work as a Bluetooth speaker for my phone. It does both very well. Not sure how long it takes to get a full charge with the solar panel by itself, I usually plug it in since it’s faster. However, the solar panel will charge the radio enough to use it.

Pros
  • What I like most is the USB option to play my favorite music. Sound quality is very good.
Cons
  • Battery does not last very long.

Good for emergency: my feedback

Bought this for my husband as we had been talking about emergencies and the need to have some way to hear broadcast information in case there is a power outage. This was inexpensive, had solar capabilities and it works.

Pros
  • Does everything it said it would
Cons
  • The rechargeable battery may not hold a charge for long periods of time

Good am/fm media player

Solar rechargeable, micro USB or AA batteries power. Easy to use AM/ FM media player (micro SD/TF card) This is a desk top size radio (not pocket) AM/FM reception is good to better than most similar radios.Shortwave is GARBAGE! It has no rejection in band and FM bleeds (even far away stations) but there is very little sent to N America in the band. A similar radio with weather would be a better

Pros
  • Shortwave Radios
Cons
  • The radio may be heavy to carry around, making it less portable

Very convenient charges up by daylight

Charged it up once when I got it out of the package. I’ll leave it on the kitchen table in the sunlight charge is it. Great for emergency. Great for the beach. Sound quality could be a little better.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • The speaker may not be powerful enough to provide high-quality sound

Versatile , adaptable radio .

The radio can play your USB music recordings and many other options. The radio can be charged by solar,back up (2) C batteries, and one rechargeable battery with the radio. It works very well, and the sound is great.

Pros
  • Prefer to have the time date in the screen it should be digital. Otherwise excellent Hurricane radio
Cons
  • The Bluetooth connectivity may be unreliable or difficult to set up

The plastic solar panel hinge is not durable in a fall

Sound quality and ease of use is good. The disapointment is that the plastic hinge for the solar panel breaks quickly if it is knocked off a side table. In my opinion not reliable in a situation such as earthquakes, or tornadoes.

Pros
  • I am just using it for decoration and it has a really nice and antique look.
Cons
  • The solar panel may not provide enough power to keep the battery charged

Great for Fun, Essential for Emergencies

Having enjoyed shortwave listening since my early teens, this G Keni Retro AM FM Shortwave Portable Radio caught my eye, and it does not disappoint. From my easy chair, I am able to tune in shortwave stations from halfway around the world using only the built-in antenna. AM and FM performance are also quite good for such an inexpensive portable; AM reception (at night) brings me stations from hundreds of miles away. The sound is clear given the electrical interference found in my semi-rural…

Pros
  • Quick solar charge with nice light and sound.
Cons
  • The emergency light may not be bright enough to be useful in certain situations

Died after four months.

Disappointed. A lot of nice features, from a solar panel to a number of radio channels. But by three months showed signs of not turning on properly and at four months it wouldn't turn on at all.To their credit, the company contacted me by email and quickly shipped me a new radio.

Pros
  • The vintage design of the radio adds a touch of nostalgia to your ambiance while the large knob makes tuning in to your favorite station a breeze
Cons
  • The rechargeable battery may need to be replaced after a few years, adding to the cost

Description says it's HD. It's not

Looking for a good HD radio? This isn't it. Though the description says HD, the tuning is analog. I asked about this (in the Q&A section) and the seller admitted it's not HD. Bait and switch--do not buy.

Pros
  • Bought as gift.
Cons
  • The large knob may be difficult to turn for those with mobility issues

Battery won't charge.

I followed the directions provided and after specified charge time the rechargeable battery didn't work. The only way it works is by keeping it plugged in. I'll be returning this product. Don't waste your money or time.

Pros
  • Radios
Cons
  • The AM/FM reception may not be consistent in all areas

Our emergency solar radio!

We purchase this radio to have on the go for traveling and for emergencies. This hand held radio Doesn’t take up much space so we have it stored away in our car for when we need it. I was surprised by all the features this radio has for the price. It can be used with solar power too. It can be recharged anytime with sunlight, so we don’t have to worry about changing out batteries. What mostly got my attention with this radio is how good the sound quality is when you tune into a good radio…

Pros
  • Portable Audio & Video
Cons
  • The radio may be expensive compared to other portable radios on the market

No good. No earphone socket. Usless!

Fine quality and brilliant three way power options solar, standard replacable rechargable battery supplied that can be charged by built on sollar panel or USB port. Can also run on two standatd alkaline size batteries. Plays MP3 easily. Best of several types of such USB playing radios I have tried. All the others I bought ended up in the bin. Only this only brand is any good at playing mp3 pod casts. Regardless of price. One Silly Problem. NO EARPIECE OR HEADPHONE JACK. Stupid scungy ommission…

Pros
  • In addition to its other features, the radio comes equipped with an emergency light and solar panel, making it a great choice for outdoor activities or emergencies, ensuring you can always stay connected and prepared
Cons
  • The emergency light may drain the battery quickly, leaving the radio unusable in an actual emergency situation

Pros
  • I am very pleased with the sound quality and how well the revive is on this radio.
Cons
  • No good

Nifty radio - my new review

Nifty radio which I will probably take with me when I trek about in India later this year. Love the solar panels. Good for the money.

Pros
  • Good for the money
Cons
  • The radio's vintage design may not appeal to everyone's personal taste
