Only thing that would have made it better would be to lock in the station.

Not quite good enough for me
For years I've listened to the radio on and off during the day and to go to sleep at night, to combat noise sensitivity and tinnitus and it's also a lot more interesting than white noise. I mostly listen to AM stations like Talksport and 5Live. My old Sony cassette/radio walkman was finally falling apart and I needed a replacement AM/FM radio. I do have a digital one, but the signal is poor here, especially at night, which is annoying to try to listen to.
I tried 3 radios that all look similar with almost identical layout. The Aiwa R-22BK, which I returned as the sound quality was terrible, even though it was £10 more expensive that the other two. I also tried the Retekess TR107.
This PRUNUS J-985 performed much better than the Aiwa, but the sound was still a bit tinny and had no real depth. I also felt there was too much crackling at the earphone socket, which either meant just a poor build, or probably a weakness in the future. The deciding factor was the Retekess has a bass boost, which makes a huge difference to the sound, for me.
So I returned both this PRUNUS radio and the Aiwa and have kept the Retekess. The PRUNUS J-985 still outperformed the Aiwa and is a fairly good second choice.

I like it stations all sound great, once you home in on them. Hard sometimes to find what station you're looking for

Good quality sound with clear channel separation. Selectivity and sensitivity also good. An outstanding valve. I do recommend ditching the included earbuds and using a good pair of headphones instead.

I bought this for my boyfriend who has had something in the past similar and wasn't able to find one anywhere. So I saw this on Amazon and he loves it! It is perfect he uses it while he is working on ladders painting and multitasking on his job job hes very pleased ! He said just what he was looking for. He says the sound quality is good and it's so nice and light weight!

Got this radio to listen to while at work. My boring warehouse job is much better now that I can listen to my favorite local stations. Good sound quality, only complaint is you have to manually tune to each station. Overall it's a solid, lightweight radio.

This product is just what I need to take on my walks in the neighborhood. It’s a small AM/FM radio that either fits in my pocket or I can use the clip that’s provided. It was a good purchase.

An elderly friend of mine wanted a simple to operate portable radio, this has been perfect for her! It is easy, small, and the clip is adequate. She loved it! Great value.

When I watch my home NFL team on television, I turn the sound off and plug the radio broadcast in my ears. That way I get the real deal info for my team. This radio words perfectly. I have had several transistor radios and all of them had speakers. This little baby has only ear plugs and it is fantastic.
