Highlights
Quality
Very good sound quality out of the small front speaker for a transistor radio.
This little radio is a great product has outstanding range for its size battery life is awesome and the sound clarity is amazin... Read More
The sound quality is like no other radio of this size i’ve ever heard.
Battery door is even on a hinge!
Price
I researched the heck out of this purchase and found that this was a very well liked little radio at a very reasonable price.
Audio quality is not bad for an inexpensive, carry around portable.
A little pricey for a little radio but it does work well.
If you can afford it, go with both and cover all bases.
Shipping
The item i received came with a proper us warranty certificate (90 days)- not a gray market import.

Competitiveness
The radio looks to be well made compared to several other radios i’ve purchased in the same price range.
Seeing that the sony icf-p26/27 and panasonic rf-p50d both appear to be discontinued (at least in the usa).
Not worth spending $45 more for a similar c crane model.
Considerably so, compared to its competitors (the radios from sony and panasonic, not even mentioning the chinese clones).
