Review on πŸ“» Compact and Convenient: Kaito KA208 Super Mini AM/FM Radio with LCD Digital Display for Precise Tuning by Robin Stone

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor quality and fragility

Identical to Coby CX53 in every way, inside and out. It is painted silver gray instead of blue as shown in the picture. The sound is distorted and hoarse over the loudspeaker and the supplied headphones, like over compressed mp3s. The battery cover accidentally pops out just when I'm holding the radio and trying to tune it. . The tuning wheel is too hard to turn, so you usually skip a few stations when trying to tune it. AM and FM reception is pretty poor even for a cheap mini radio. to bring it back. It turns out that the headphone jack sometimes disables the speaker even when no headphones are plugged in. He is fragile and fragile. Handle with care. I paid about €5 for mine. The Coby CX-50 is a much better product in the same price range and size. Improved reception, better sound quality and more durable construction. He has a real metal face and looks cooler. It's also about 2mm thinner and about 1mm smaller in width and height. smallest AM-FM radio with built-in speaker I've found from the 70's.
