Review: Great product - Great product. Lovely sound and easy to tune.
Review: Compact, value for money, clear reception. - When my new radio arrived I thought it was a mistake as the packaging was so small. Don’t be fooled. The quality of the reception is just ace. It’s a manual tuner which is even better now days. None of that faffing about trying to tune the thing in to a station. The quality is very good and I thought the price was ok. It only takes 2 little batteries. I luv it. 👍😀

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Retekess Quality
*by E***M on 30 August 2021*

Bought this as an after thought to compare it to a Sony . After hearing the Retekess TR614 which is impressive I thought of giving this a go....well it is small and feels good to hold. It has easy to use controls and clear easy to read scales. Sound is superb , deeper than my Sony and that gives it a sound found in much dearer radios. Tinny it isn't. Quite impressive for such small unit. Build quality feels good, no fiddly bits to get lost or broken off , no sign of anything rattling around inside.Controls sturdy and easy to use. Reception is good ....on FM , Mw has a slight noise akin to light distortion which is probably interference, but it does pick up stations not found on my Sony. On FM we get french, dutch and a german station....on a day with little or no FM lift . Sw seems a waste, nothing to hear , not even the regular russian/chinese relays the crop up from time to time . All in all a good purchase , worth the money but not quite good enough for someone seeking unusuals on the airwaves.
