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.

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.

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.

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.

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. :-)Read full review
