Reto look beautiful 😍 sound amazing 👏 love the product

Worth every penny. Such a sleek look. Picks up all the radio channels I've tried and the speaker is LOUD. Very impressed

I must say, I’ve been constantly impressed with this little device. The sound quality is better than I expected. It’s not Bose audio quality, but it definitely packs a punch - sound isn’t distorted or weirdly high level trebles or anything like that - just pretty solid. The radio reception is really good, and I’m most impressed with the multiple power sources: plugged in, rechargeable internal battery, or via purchased batteries. The rechargeable battery seems to hold a long charge as well. Re: aesthetics: it looks great and a nice novelty to add to your office or home. Would definitely recommend.

My cousin purchased a radio that played cassettes. Her radio was shaped and designed like a vintage jukebox and I loved it. I love to download music from Amazon and then put it on flashdrive and play through USB port in car because my car is newer model without CD player. This allows me to have my music all the time without any commercials. Several years ago I purchased a Victrola 4-n-1 (also from Amazon) that would allow me to transfer music from vinyl records, CDs and cassettes to USB. This made it possible for me to enhance my music library by getting older music from LPs, cassettes and CDs to the USB and then I could plug the USB into my personal laptop or office laptop and create my personal playlists. All is well and good! I have over 2,000 songs (over 500 CDs, cassettes, and LPs) in one location for my listening pleasure.One catch...I host a lot of family game nights and to tune in (no pun intended) to the games, I never turn the TV on. Instead, I choose a playlist from my Windows Media Player and have music playing off my laptop. Well, that works well when it's just 2 people sitting at the table and I can place laptop at the other end, but when you are playing games with 3 and 4 people, well, there just doesn't seem to be enough room for people, beverages, gameboards AND a laptop. So, I remembered my cousin buying the vintage radio. I did a search for vintage radio with USB port because I knew I wanted to be able to play music off my flashdrive and I found this beauty.I ordered and it was delivered 2 days later. It was packaged really well, no concerns about contents being damaged because the radio box was packed well and then it was placed inside a well-packed Amazon box. I took a picture of box because I liked the comment that was at the top of the box. Pronus was the No. 1 Radio sales brand on Amazon worldwide in 2021. Never heard of the brand, but it's obviously a good one!The radio is adorably cute. I love that it has the Royal Crest with MP3 logo on it. Yes, little things amaze me!Okay, so inside the box: The radio, of course, 3 power supply cords (AC for electric, USB which will allow you to plug into computer, car or other device/outlet that has USB port, and Auxiliary cord, which allows me to plug & play my MP3 or iPod) and owner's manual. The antenna is securely attached but releases with no hassle. I didn't know the radio was preloaded with batteries, but when I unplugged, I continued to see the blue LED backlight for several hours and then realized it was because I didn't turn it off.Pros:1. It looks vintage and is small enough to be portable and will be perfect little addition to our family game nights. Now I can remove laptop from table and this little beauty fits in a nice little corner away from food prep on kitchen counter.2. Several options for how you play it. I prefer plugging into electrical outlet.3. It's labeled well enough that you probably don' even need to look at the owner's manual to see what is what, but if you aren't sure of what feature you have chosen, a lady's voice tells you the feature as you select different options on the Mode button.4. The sound quality is really good ONCE you get your volume set to desired level (that's an issue in and of itself).5. Took this cute little beauty to a friend's house for a game day marathon (10 hours of card/boarrd games) and this didn't disappoint. Good thing is that the USB does NOT start over every time you turn on the radio or even when you remove flashdrive and insert it again. So, when you have over 2,000 songs/50 hours of music on flashdrive, you aren't listening to the same music over and over. It "seems" to pick up from where it last played. I like that because if the unit were to start over each time WITHOUT shuffle option, you would be listening to the same music all the time UNLESS you let unit play on its own for 24 hours or more.Cons and why the 4 stars:1. The volume control knob is VERY sensitive and difficult to control. I hear 3 levels below normal, so I listen to TV and music at a lower volume than most. Well, the volume knob basically mutes and blasts. It seems that is its 2 main options. I had to very carefully tap the knob to get a really loud volume turned down and the slightest turn would mute it. I finally got it to a nice volume for me but unfortunately, I couldn't save the volume level because...2. The volume control knob is also your power knob. That's why my radio stayed on for several hours because I just assumed if I unplugged the power cord it would go off, but the backup batteries kicked in. You have to turn it off with the volume control knob. You will hear a nice click when you turn it off and on, but unfortunately for me; that also makes me have to reset the volume every time I turn it on. No biggie once I get the volume to my desired level.3. There is no shuffle feature for MP3/USB feature. Now this is a bit interesting because although you cannot choose a shuffle mode, it seems to do that for you intermittently. I know what song my flashdrive is going to start with. That song's artist has 6 songs from the same CD so if I don't put the flashdrive in shuffle mode, all 6 songs will play in the order they were transferred and then the next CD and so on. So, this was the beginning scenario, but then after the 2nd song played, it went to another artist. Sometimes it seems to play all the songs from one CD/Cassette/Vinyl that was transferred to the flashdrive and other times it seems to shuffle. I'm not complaining because I would rather shuffle all my music than listen to it in the order that it was transferred to the flashdrive. And because there is no shuffle feature I have the following complaint...4. There is no remote control with this unit. I wish there was a remote because I honestly believe volume controls on a remote would make it easier to set the desired volume than trying to use a very sensitive turn dial and IF you want to move on to a different set of songs, you would be able to choose Next or Skip without having to get up, go to radio and use the button. And that would also make it a lot easier to use during game time.5. The battery compartment is really tight and hard to open. As of this review, I still haven't gotten it opened because I was afraid if I put too much force on it that I would break the little door. I will be sure to use a butter knife when I want to open it because I definitely don't want to break a nail and then get mad at it.Update on the "no shuffle mode" option...a few days prior to the game day marathon, I plugged unit in for a cleaning day at my house. I noticed that one song somehow got into a repeat mode and I counted, it played 6 times before going to the next song. I wrote the song down so I could check and see if the song was actually on the flashdrive that many times. This happened again with another song a few hours later but after the 3rd round I chose the skip option. Well, as many know, if you try to sync a song to a flashdrive, after the sync is completed you can click for update to see what songs were added to device and IF the song is already on device it will say "already on device" so 99% of the time, you are not going to be able to add the same song by the same artist on the same album. Now, when I checked my flashdrive, the song that played 6 times was on my flashdrive twice because it was on 2 different albums. So, I could understand it playing at a max twice, but not sure why it played 6 times. I deleted 5 of the duplicate songs. The other song that played 3 times was only on flashdrive once, so I'm not sure why it decided to repeat.All in all, I am very pleased with this unit. Note: I haven't tried to listen to the AM/FM radio because radio stations just aren't my style, so I'm not sure how good the reception is but the antenna seemed to stretch out really well, so I feel you would probably get good reception. If you want something you can attach flashdrive, MP3 player/iPod, etc to, this little unit would be ideal.Update: Yesterday (1/9/24) my area had a really bad winter storm and I had to pack up my cat and some supplies and head to a friend's house to seek shelter. Well, I took this with me and once I had BG cat settled in, I set up my office laptop in dining room and plugged this in. I worked for the next 5 hours and was so glad that I had my music with me. Had I not taken this, I either would not have had any music OR I would have been using a friend's radio and then I would have to listen to songs I didn't care for as well as commercials. This little beauty helped me work and pass the time away during a really rough storm.After using this unit for several hours on a daily basis, I have decided that this really is a nice unit and I plan on buying one for my brother as a retirement gift to put in his hobby/study. He also enjoys listening to music off a flashdrive, so that he has all music on one device.

This radio worked right out of the box with good reception for my rural area. It looks good in my vintage kitchen too. It feels sturdy and well built.We have a lot of tropical weather here and I needed a new cordless radio for emergencies to keep handy. You can charge the internal battery but also has a battery compartment for standard batteries and plugs into a wall receptacle among other great features like Bluetooth.

We love this little radio! 📻 The retro design is super fun & it can be charged via usb or electric plug 🔌 ~ both included! ~ or, if you’re out in the wilderness & already used up the reserves, this can be powered by batteries as well!Love that it not only offers FM & AM, but shortwave radio as well! The volume control is VERY sensitive when in radio mode. However, when using Bluetooth to connect, volume is easily adjusted using either your phone/Bluetooth device or the volume knob on the radio itself. Slightly ‘tinny’ in sound ~ but it kind of adds to the retro vibe of the device. There will be no playing of Nikki Minaj & her Super Bass… but Frank Sinatra & Phil Collins sound like absolute buttah through these airwaves.

The radio is small nice looking but the potentiometers are cheap adjusting the volume is scratchy, the tuning knob is also a bit difficult to find and retain the station. I don’t think the tuner electronically drifts but the knob edges off a little so you have to dial a little past your station for it to drift back in tune. I first charged it with the ac adaptor and it got hot in the back above the empty battery section. I charged it with the usb cable and no heat and it charged within a few hours. I have yet to add batteries and I doubt I will since the built in rechargeable batteries seem to last a long time and the usb charging seems to be the safest with no heat involved. There is no indication as to what level the battery is charged only that a little red light on top turns off when charged. One other thing the tuning dial has a very bright blue back light that lights the room up wish it were dimmer and amber for evening use in the bedroom. Sound is good, antennae is ok for am and fm but not for short wave. Got to move the radio and antennae around for best signal as instructed in directions. Finally I like the radio I have to be gentle with the knobs the volume knob has to be turned back and fourth to clean the static sounds but all in all it is not a boom box but a simple retro radio that looks good and sounds good on the shelf.

I had read about the volume knob sensitivity issues. But anyway I gave a shot ordering this Radio. I received the 2023 version (printed in the Box) despite the fact that the listing states "New 2024 version". At first look I liked it, Its features, BT connectivity, Speaker, and convenience with the options to be charged and powered. However, I ended up returning it to Amazon since I didn't like the volume sensitivity of the knob. So, 4 stars for the concept, good vintage looking, and features. If you are fine with the volume knob sensitivity, this is a great Vintage Radio for that price point. The seller company offers good service and great communication.
