Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony ICF-S10MK2 Pocket AM/FM Radio, SilverCustomer Review: Sony Pocket Radio Summary: 5 Stars
When it comes from Amazon direct- no problem the UPS driver left a note on my apartment entry way and I went to Westmont and retrieved it.
It was gift for Mom who wanted a simple battery powered radio for emergencies and just be simple to operate between fm/am for her. (She is 84.)
Well the radio is a delight. I even got my Hearts of Space 90.9 FM on it in Joliet a very hard feat to do here.
It is very clear and the batteries are lasting a long time. Since she opened it last weekend (could not wait for Christmas) she has been using it and she just loves the ease and simplicity of it.
Thanks for making mom's Christmas a delight!
Customer Review: Great Little Radio Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this radio based on another buyers review on this page and I was happy that I did. Now I can listen to Michael Savage at work! Yey! This little thing can pick up stations from as far away as Atlanta, although, fuzzy. I can also get in Jacksonville (70 miles) and Savannah (80 miles) so yeah, I'm happy. It's steal at $12.00. And I love the old school design. It's funny how people my age (28) don't even know what a radio looks like! They ask, "What's that thing?" like it's some unusual device from Mars. Maybe they're stoned. Anyway, it's a sound investment if you want a nice little portable radio. Also I think it arrived in only 3 or 5 days which was another plus.
Customer Review: Old time radio Summary: 5 Stars
This resembles a transistor radio I had over 30 years ago. Not a bad thing, although I thought they might be thinner now (I am sure some of them are). It is thick enough to stand up without support. A good workable size. Works fine. Simple controls. No problems. One point that almost stopped me from buying this is their "Product Dimensions: 1.5 x 7.1 x 11.2 inches ; 9.6 ounces". And yet they say it will fit in your pocket. I decided to disregard these dimensions and go with the picture. The radio I received which looks exactly like the one in the picture yet it weighs less than 6 ounces (with batteries) and measures 1 x 2.5 x 4.5 inches. Quite a bit smaller.
Customer Review: Shockingly Great Little Radio Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this radio because some dope at my workplace dropped our work radio, and I all of a sudden couldn't get the AM stations that broadcast the SF Giants games. I've been using it for about 6 weeks now, and have nothing but raves about all aspects of the radio.
Specifically, I wanted to mention the battery life. I don't know how long the batteries are supposed to last - I haven't owned a transistor radio in 25 years. But I've listened to this radio about 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks, and am still on the first set of batteries. Maybe that's expected from this type of product, but I wasn't expecting it, and am supremely pleased.
Customer Review: Compact, Dependable Radio! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought one of these for my dad who loves talk radio for Fathers Day. He needed something compact that he could carry around as he worked. This was it. He loves it so much. I've stopped by the house on multiple occassions and he answers the door with his radio in hand.
I had a bulky radio that sporadically picked up AM stations, so I purchased one as well. It has been great, especially during bad weather when all of the satellite tv's are out. It's small enough to keep handy in a kitchen drawer or in a glove box.
I recently had a friend come over and he wanted to purchase one as well. So it looks like I'll be purchasing a 3rd one.
