This was replacing the same radio my husband had had for many years so we knew it was good. He insisted I. Getting the same one as the old o e had been so good for so long. He loves the sleep function on the radio to save the battery.

I LOVE THIS RADIO!!!!!!Excellent quality!You get what you pay for.in this case it's worth every penny!Two triple A batteries not included.It has many useful functions and comfortable to hold .Earphones have clear sound and speaker is a good sound too.Happy with my purchase

I have purchased through amazon.in (at Rs 2296) on 05.11.2014.Pros.1) Great compact dxing radio catching Hyderabad radio station (500+km), Vijayawada radio station etc from Visakhapatnam.2) By default , AM frequency stepping is for US (10KHz), but can be changed to Euro 9 KHz (India based on UK). we have to press 'Lower' (-)button & hold and press 'on' button. This info is not given in the manual supplied but given in the manual of DT-210V3) It is Compact (little larger than cell phone) & light weight, comfortable to hold due to its shape, more beautiful than in picture.4) Since it is digital (PLL Synthesized) easy to tune {especially manually , if already frequency is known, (though direct entry will be much easier it needs more buttons)} and retrieve from memory, where it is much better than SONY ICF-S10MK2 (analog radio) though Sony is ahead in sensitivity, since it is much difficult to tune to distant desired stations with Sony as it needs lot of precise rotation of analog tuner knob and stopping at right point .5) It uses earphones as antenna, hence less directional than Sony ICF-S10MK2, which has telescopic antenna (but convenient to carry)6) Already it has many reviews at Amazon.com, and comparisons with Dt-200 etc.7) As it is battery operated, it has a great potential to use as an emergency radio in case of super cyclones etc (during recent Hudhud at Vizag, all communications & power supply failed for days and news available only through radio)Cons:1) little initial confusion / difficulty in putting FM /AM channels into memory / their retrieval (some more buttons / logic may be needed)2)The battery consumption in Standby / in swich off condition is very high and further battery contacts points can be eaten away if battery is leaking.

I listen to a lot of AM talk radio shows, and this radio is just perfect for my needs. I live in an urban area that is saturated with lots of both AM and FM stations, and yet the selectivity of this radio can pick a certain station, even weak ones, and won't let the nearer, stronger stations interfere with them.I'm amazed that they could somehow engineer a large enough AM ferrite bar antenna into such a small unit to bring in such crystal clear reception (of course you have to turn the radio to the optimal angle to receive the signal).The small speaker is tuned mainly for voice, not music, but I'm also amazed that they could get any kind of decent sound out of such a tiny speaker, but they did it.The sound clarity coming out of this speaker is WAY better than some of the junky pocket radios out there.This radio is well worth the price paid.

I listen to a lot of radio, and sound quality is VERY important to me (I'm one of those LP-only guys). When my old Aiwa CR-LD100 started acting up, I looked hard for a radio-only replacement that had good sound. I tried several units in person and I scoured the web for things like "best sound fm portable" etc. But with digital players being all the rage, there were very few high-quality pocket tuners available.After readng the reviews on the DT-210V, I decided to chance it. While I would have preferred a smaller unit, the reviews for the DT-110 didn't emphasize sound quality as they did with the larger DT-210V. And sound quality is everything for me.Now that I have it, I can tell you the FM sound quality of the DT-210V is excellent for its size. Using the Etymotic ER4P and with Bass Boost on, I get a warm, rich, tone and a surprisingly wide, deep, and convincing soundstage. The amount of detail is striking. Also, it easily drives the inefficient Etymotics as loudly as you could wish, no headphone amp required.FM reception is very good, with drift free performance on stations 50 miles away. Weak stations produce some hiss but turning the mono switch clears that up and makes for an acceptable mono experience.I don't want to mislead other audiophiles out there -- of course it's not as good a sound as my 1964 Fisher 500C tube receiver with full-sized Grado headphones, nor does it have as fine a reception! But it is astounding, nonetheless, given its size.AM reception is far better than any pocket radio I've had but it is especially directional. When you are "aiming" it properly, you'll get very clear, static-free reception, sometimes from quite far away, hundreds of miles.Again, I don't want to mislead the DXers out there. This is not even close in performance to my Sony ICF-SW7600GR for DXing broadcast AM. But it's 1/3 the price and 1/8 the volume of the Sony and damned good for casual AM listening.The user interface is the best I've seen on any radio (My Sony's interface still confuses me). To tune: press quickly for manual, hold a half second for search. To set memory: tune, press memo, select location, press memo. To recall memory: press recall, select memory location up or down. This was all second nature inside two minutes.Regarding the little speaker, I thought I would "put up with it" in order to get the superior tuner section. But it's really quite useful for listening to AM without headphones.All in all, this was the best $50 I've spent in a long time. I am thoroughly enjoying this excelent product. If sound quality is important to you, get one.

I've been a radio broadcast engineer for almost 25 years. I've been an electronics experimenter and radio nut for even longer, since I was 12 years old. I've had quite a few small radios through the years, but this is the best performer so far. I was disappointed by other "Walkman" type radios. This has the best AM & FM reception of anything I've owned. Here is what I like about it. The mono/stereo mode switch for FM is great. I would rather listen to a clean mono signal than a noisy stereo one. This is especially useful for public radio news/talk programs. I don't know why NPR stations don't program their audio processors to go into mono mode during talk programming, they would increase their fringe area coverage and make a lot of cheap noisy portable radios sound better. The FM stereo reception is slightly better than the Sonys I have. The Sangean is one of the very few that lets you select the mono FM mode, a big plus for me. Also, many small radios get overloaded by strong local transmitters. This tuner is much better near one 50,000 watt FM transmitter I work near. I can still tune weaker farther away signals when I'm 3/4 mile from the 50kw tower. Someone complained in another review that it doesn't have a local/distant switch...it doesn't need it. The AM tuner is excellent, especially considering the small size of the radio. If it has a ferrite bar antenna rod, it must be small. They must have some very low noise high gain semiconductors to get such a good signal-to-noise ratio with a tiny AM antenna. The AM tuner is very sensitive and selective. I can listen to WWJ 950 AM from Detroit during the day, about 80 miles away. You can barely detect a station on 950 with my Sonys. At night, I can DX many AM stations. I was listening to hurricane Katrina coverage at night on WWL 870 AM in New Orleans. I live 20 miles north of Lansing Michigan. The TV audio reception works great, but I haven't really used it. I can get channels 5,6,8,10, and 12 where I live. The audio is weaker on TV, probably because the deviation is only 25 KHz instead of the 75 KHz used on FM. They should design these so the audio gain increases about 10 dB when tuning TV audio. That way you wouldn't need to turn up the volume when going from AM/FM to TV audio.Someone complained about the power switch...mine works fine. The earbuds are good for listening in bed. I use headphones while walking my dogs. The box says it has 25 presets, 15 FM and 10 AM. Mine doesn't. It has 10 FM, 10 AM, and 10 TV. A minor issue. The 10 presets for TV are stupid, since there are only 12 VHF channels. It's easy enough to use the +/- tuning to get the TV channel you want.The audio sounds great with plenty of level to drive headphones. The small speaker works OK, but you can't get much volume without clipping distortion. 95% of the time I use heaphones. The "Deep Bass Boost" (DBB) works fine with headphones, but I prefer a flat response.I think the DT-210V deserves 5 stars, simply because it's the best pocket size radio I've tried. The reception almost equals a car radio. That's respectable for a tiny shirt pocket radio operating on 3 volts.
