    Great Little Radio

    Bought just for apt. use. If a stn. doesn’t come in perfectly there is an antenna for adjusting. Carrying strap is great for added security. Since I use rechargeable batteries a great feature is a battery strength indicator light. I mostly listen to sports talk but music stns. also play well. Very pleased overall.

    Volume control isn't

    I've had more transistor radios than I can remember, starting in the '60s, and at least several of them were Sony products. I thought I had nothing to worry about getting another, albeit a smaller one than any I've had before. The problem with this radio is the shockingly uneven behaviour of the volume control. A minute adjustment down or up instantly raises the volume to an unwelcome level, and trying to get it where you want it is like driving on smooth ice. I expected better from Sony. I've been using this for nearly a year and a half now, so am in no doubt about the verdict, and have no choice but to replace it with one from a different manufacturer.

  • Decent little radio

    This is a decent little radio. Very compact and easy to bring along fishing or back packing. Don't expect boom box quality sound but good for listening to the game or even music. Seems to lock in and hold the stations much better than some no name brand radios I've had before. I like that the power switch is on the AM/FM switch instead of the volume control and won't accidently turn on as easily as other radios. Also it has a battery condition and station lock indicator light. The radio I received was in perfect condition even if the box was beat up but who cares? That gets tossed anyway.

  • A great little transistor radio like the 80s with AA instead of 9V batteries

    It's exactly what I was looking for, a modern version of Radio Shack's transistor radios. The good: Works on 2 AA instead of a 9V, easier and cheaper to get. Reception is almost as good as $100+ shortwave radios, though for weak FM I had to clip on wire to make a longer antenna. Power use is in the 10-20mA range, as low or lower than comparable radios. Alkalines should last 300 hours at low volume on AM, maybe 200 hours otherwise. Contrary to the manual, it does work (both ears but mono) with TRRS (smartphone w/mic) headphones. The neutral: Analog tuning, not DSP. Antenna is always exposed on the back; I'd prefer it was enclosed in the case like most radios. Power switch is the band switch not the volume control.

  • Great value for small portable radio.

    I bought a Sony ICF-S10MK in 2014, and after dropping it on the floor, steps, ground, and sidewalk, too many time to count, I had jacked it up pretty good. But Sony makes damn good products, because even though it eventually cracked open, and I used tape and rubberbands to keep it together, it still worked. So I finally decided to get a new radio to replace it, and was going to get the same model, until I read that Sony had come out with an updated version, the ICF-P26. It truly is a better upgrade. The tuning is more accurate, it puts out dual channel mono on stereo headphones, its has nice indicator tuning and sound lights, and the on-off switch is better located in the AM-FM switch, and it even sounds better. For the price (~$20) and features, a no-brainer. I just hope I can keep from dropping it on hard surfaces as much as the previous one. :-)

  • Portable Sony ICF-P26 radio.

    Purchased small battery powered Sony radio after going thru hurricane Irma power outage without one. Seems to be ideal for the purpose desired in that it’s easy to use, is simple design, analogue type tuning, adequate sound quality and volume.

  • Great little radio!

    I love this little radio. Great for listening to our NPR station while going to sleep. Terrific reception, easy to use and a fine travel companion. Also, will be important to have in case of emergency. We're very happy with it. Uses 2 AA batteries. Long-lasting.

  • VERY DECENT RADIO FOR THE PRICE

    Not as great as my previous sony, but very decent for the price. Tuning is a bit sensitive for some stations. If u try walking around with this radio, you will get mainly static. I'm an NPR listener, and they are usually difficult to tune in.

  • Excellent small radio

    Great portable pocket sized radio with excellent Sony sound. Listen to the radio while doing projects around the house & garden or anywhere while preserving your privacy. It doesn’t track you! That’s an important feature to me these days. It also makes a great gift.
