Supersonic SC-1080BT 9-Band Radio with Bluetooth, Portable Small Multi Band Radio Stereo, USB and Micro SD Input, Torch Light, and Rechargeable Battery

UPDATE!Was listening in my garage yesterday and the sound just cut out…battery is charged and Bluetooth still appears functional but none of the radio stations work anymore..totally bummed out..UPDATE! The Bluetooth functionality works very nicely, it allows me to watch movies in my iPad and I port the sound to the radio via Bluetooth, very cool feature!Also - Although there is no feature that identifies when the battery is fully charged I just plug it in for 4 hours to charge it.I charged it for 4 hours and then unplugged the charger, so far the radio has played for almost 3 hours on thatLittle rechargeable cell phone battery it came with, Very impressed as the directions suggested it would onlyPlay for an hour off the battery - very impressive little unit and I sure hope it lasts!I just wanted a small, portable, battery powered radio and I didn’t want to spend over $20.I must say I’m very impressed with this little unit.It looks sharp and contemporary and has really good sound for how small it is.Comes with rechargeable battery, USB power cord and typical Chinese instructions.You can run off the supplied rechargeable battery or use three AA batteries, that’s a nice option.Have not tried the shortwave channels and honestly wasn’t interested in that feature at all, just happened tocome with the radio so that’s a bonus as well.All in all I consider this a very good value for the money.Like many of you I rely highly on Amazon Reviews when making my selection so now I sayit’s five out of five stars and will update the review if I encounter any issues.

I really like this little radio. For $15, I'm very happy.Even without batteries, it has a good bit of weight. Enough that it doesn't feel like cheap junk. When you crank the volume, the 2 inch speaker can get surprisingly loud. I'd say the speaker accounts for a lot of the unit's weight, just look the picture I included.The USB and SD playback are only okay, as it just plays files sequentially, but most people will probably use the Bluetooth, which has good range. The radio works alright, but I decided to put a bigger antenna on, which required a soldering iron.It has the option for USB power, but it's a Mini USB port, which is the only real problem I have with this radio. I like to just use rechargeable batteries, so I can swap them whenever. I don't know if the radio can charge AA batteries, but I doubt it.Better to use a dedicated battery charger anyway.I bought this because I wanted something better than my laptop speakers, and but I think it will get used a lot more than that.

Great little radio! It's quite compact, but has surprisingly decent sound quality. I bought this to use while camping (Bluetooth and FM) and for the FM broadcast at my local drive-in movie theater. With the external antenna, it seems to do okay picking up weaker signals. I only use the FM function, so can't comment on the shortwave or AM reception.I especially like the simplicity. With basic dials for volume and tuning, there are no complicated digital menus to navigate just to search for a station. The rechargeable battery is easily replaceable down the road, and uses a common cell phone battery.There are only two minor drawbacks that kept me from giving 5 stars:1) The recharge port uses a mini USB connector. None of my other gizmos use this, so this is one more cord (included) to carry. Not a huge deal, but I wish it has a micro USB port like my tablet and other devices.2) I wish the radio had an indicator to show when recharging is complete. There's a light to show when recharging is in progress, but not when complete.Those are minor drawbacks, to be sure. This radio is a great value.

This is great little radio that does many functions very well. Although a small radio, it will fill a room with crystal clear audio. The FM, and bluetooth sound quality are impeccable. I live in a radio remote area, yet the tuning is remarkably sensitive and has excellent separation of stations(rejection). Tuning dial is accurate on all frequencies, and works very smoothly. The radio has a overall feeling of quality, fit and finish are flawless. A inexpensive radio that performs better than my larger, expensive radios.

Bought first time two years ago and was blown away. The batteries would run forever, sturdy, small, practical, good sound. Was amazed by the solid quality.Bought three more as emergency radios for family: small, battery operated, analog broadband signal, low consumption and sturdy. What better as ‘emergency’ radio, right?PIECE OF TRASH. Quality down the toilet. Out of the box I noticed they were much lighter. Fell from its own weight while on then table (flipped down?) and stopped working. Plastic a lot more brittle, paint more ‘scratch-able’. DO NOT BUY, sorry if my previous preview from years ago misled anyone into buying. NOT THE SAME PRODUCT AS WHEN ORIGINALLY HIT THE MARKET. It is obvious they changed manufacturer and suppliers.
