Overall Feedback:
79% positive
70% appreciated the long battery life
I conducted an experiment and found that the radio operated for 11 days or 260 hours with the specified condition.
With regular usage, the battery life lasts for 3-4 months using only 2 AA batteries.
73% appreciated its rugged design
I appreciate the durability of this radio, which appeals to old school radio listeners like me while using the latest technology.
67% praised for its clear reception
On good reception, the sound quality is perfectly functional despite the device feeling like a toy and being small.
The Fm reception of this portable shortwave radio is superior to the P26/P36(horizontal) and the MW (AM) reception is slightly below the P26 but still performs at a high level.
72% praised for its clear and loud sound
On good reception, the sound quality is perfectly functional despite the device feeling like a toy due to its light and small size.
The sound quality is clear and the volume can be loud.
