About Avantree SP850 Rechargeable Portable FM Radio
Overall Feedback:
95% positive
92% found connectivity options easy, but 8% faced issues
I find the sd card option to be the most important feature. It can be difficult to navigate through folders on other units, but this radio makes it easy.
I discovered that the mic on the radio is for talking through the radio when connected via Bluetooth to the cell phone.
The player options offer a wide range of connectivity options with external devices, which should satisfy most people.
I am not getting the reception through FM that I would like. Some of it is directional which would tend to indicate more antenna might be helpful or perhaps I live too far from the stations.
94% were impressed with the portability
The radio is perfect for my trips to the lake, beach, camping, and drive-in theater. I love its portability and running time.
This radio is portable and can be easily carried in a pocket. It can also be plugged into an aux.
95% were satisfied with display and controls, whereas 5% weren't
Whenever I press a button or change the volume, the display lights up for a few seconds, which is helpful at night.
The buttons allow me to switch to the previous or next MP3 file with a single click. I can also fast forward or fast reverse in a given MP3 file by holding in the same button used to play either the previous or next file.
The buttons are nicely rubber-covered and flush with the surface of the unit to prevent accidental presses. The number row along the top edge is particularly nice to instantly tune in either a radio station or specific MP3 file.
Finding a specific song on the card is frustrating, but limited display and controls are expected on a radio of this size.
