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 that Little rechargeable cell phone battery it came with, Very impressed as the directions suggested it would only Play 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 to come 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 say it’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.

This little radio is great, but does not sound great. I did not buy it for the sound quality, I bought it for emergency and camping use. The included rechargeable battery lasted over 4 days using just the radio at a low volume, if those run out you can remove the rechargeable battery and use 4 AA which is super handy. Tuning works as expected but because it's not digital there is no station lock, so you need to adjust every so often. Short wave stations work fine, so this would be useful in an emergency. Build quality is solid plastic, but I am not sure it would survive a fall of more than a meter. Volume is not loud, but reasonable.

After seeing the reviews in Amazon only I bought this radio. Performance wise it is quite amazing. FM reception is very good. One weak station which I had not received in other radios is quite audible in this radio. MW station reception is normal. Local radio reception is ok. However, long distance station are gained during night when tuned outside. Shortwave many stations can be heard during evening and night. During morning 19 metre band is active. Sound of this radio is phenominal. Drawback is there is no audio slot for personal hearing. For the cost we spend, this radio is worthwhile.

Fue como regalo, pero se quedó en mi familia así que pude usarlo algunas veces como radio am y fm sin problemas gran volumen, calidad de sonido nada especial pero cumple, tamaño portable, sobre la onda corta pues no he podido sintonizar nada, igual no hay nadie cerca que transmita en esas frecuencias de ahí en más todo bien, el material se ve medio frágil o que se va a despuntar pronto, pero supongo depende de cómo lo trates.

Lo tengo en un rancho y se escucha hasta bien lejor. Excelente producto !!

Its a very nice small radio, which fits in hands or in the pocket and budget also.Nice music can be heard stored in pan drive or sd card . FM reception is very nice.Short wave reception is very nice and sharp in no noise area, I use it in my garden and out door and enjoy the music files and even fm, sw stations.Fully satisfied by this product.
