What Customers Say About Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket AM/FM Radio, Silver:

I was looking at digitally tuned pocket radios, but they were too expensivefor me to just hear the news while I shaved, so I thought I would try thisone instead. I works flawlessly. Highly recommended.
It's the size of an average cassette/walkman, so harder to lose than some mp3 players, but also not as comfortable/convenient to carry around. not that good for music since it's not stereo. Great if you're buying it for news, talk, weather etc. Most annoying; the volume dial is super sensitive and can go from zero to blast with a simple touch, so adjust carefully if you've got earbuds on. It has a speaker so you can listen that way or you may want those "dual monaural earphones" listed on Amazon or a single earphone vs stereo earbuds. The best thing about the Sony ICF-S10MK2 is that unlike digital players this analog radio uses very little battery power, it seems to go forever on a set of batteries which almost outweighs the bad. Something to consider; it will get maybe one or two stations past 1600 on AM but not one closer to 1700 that I get on other radios. As far as being susceptible to frequency interence, it seems average for being what it is: Ten Bucks
The only problem is that with headphones, only the left ear works. I bought this radio so I could hear my local radio station news and whatnot on my commute to and from work. It works just fine. I think it's a good radio and for 10 bucks it's a great price. You can't really find portable radios these days, and I wanted to listen to something live rather than getting it a day late on my ipod podcast.
I had a Radio Shack pocket radio that cost twice as much prior to this one and it was not even close to the quality of this little gem. This is an amazing little radio for $10. I am one of those folks who listen to talk radio all the time. Bottom line. you will not be disappointed.
I had this radio for about ten years. Now I am planning to get the same one. I listened to it all the time when I used to work on the beach. Then my son began to play with it, that's when it fell apart. The battery last for along time, and so convenient when you go to the beach. Love it.
