LOW RESOLUTION ! - Clock radio

The radio did not meet my expectations. It doesn't pick up any stations compared to Erickson's cell phone 10 years ago. The manufacturer mentions that it has a high definition chip for better reception of channels, I think this is not true as all channels receive them with a lot of noise. Worst of all, the device came in a box with no "guarantee" seal and plastic packaging, so I think the device is used. I have a lot of scratches on the back and screen. In this case, Revane is the least guilty.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Small, works great and a bargain in my opinion.

This is a small pocket sized digital radio that works great. It has an external speaker, which was one of my requests, making it more versatile. The fact that it's digital makes it more likely to stay tuned and not change the volume setting as there aren't any random dials, especially if it's in a shirt or jacket pocket. Tuning and setting up channels is easy and reception is very good at my location. It would be nice if it kept the preset stations when changing the battery, but it's easy to…

  • Done
Cons
  • Reliability

A lot of radio for the money

Really good radio for less than 20 euros. The sound is actually surprisingly good. Bells and whistles are all useful. Looks good and feels good. It even has little feet on the bottom to make it easier to stand - works well. I ordered a SMAKN 3V adapter so I can change the battery without losing the settings. ?ie=UTF8&psc=1(Since they recommend buying a Horologe pocket radio and a 3.5mm plug tip, it should work just fine.) So if you like pocket radios, this is a worthy candidate to add to your…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Empty

Great little radio.

This is a great little radio. I think it's great that the VHF antenna is actually built into the wrist strap, which is not visible in the product image. Unlike some other tiny FM radios, this one also has a speaker. Works great with 2 AAA batteries. The only downside I've found is that all presets (and the time you set) are lost when you change batteries. I even tried changing the batteries in quick succession. Vain. All presets, alarms and set times have been lost. I don't really care since my

Pros
  • Cool

  • Damaged

Good radio for the stadium

Before that I had a Sangean DT-120 which I was very happy to take with me to the stadium to listen to the radio broadcast of the baseball game live (streaming is far too delayed compared to AM/FM ). Unfortunately I left this radio in the cab to get out so I had to get something new. The holologe is definitely not as well built as the Sangean. The plastic feels a lot more brittle and the buttons are a little loose and seem to stop working eventually. Despite all this, it offers very good…

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • I'm not saying anything

Wee Travel Clock Radio

This is a small AM/TH travel clock radio. The display is sharp and the orange backlight is easy to see in the dark. Setting the time and alarm itself isn't complicated, but it's not intuitive - you'll need a little guide to figure out which buttons to press. I like that it either honks or uses the radio as an alarm clock. One caveat is that unlike a radio alarm, the alarm doesn't last very long. The audio from the internal speaker is terrible; very funny without bass. I found this surprising as

Fantastic for what it is

I called it 'Fantastic just as it is' for a reason. I am a lifelong radio amateur. I have lots of them. Most have cost me over $100, most of them are multi band and the best radios out there. CCrane, Sangean, TecSun, Grundig, Sony. These are all brands you will find in my house and I would say they are all 4-5 star radios. Radio. I would like to clarify this for other radio amateurs. But I still consider it a 4 star radio so read on and see why. I only bought this radio for baseball games. I…

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Sad packaging
