Removed the product from the package, inserted batteries and the radio would not turn on. Tested batteries(good); re-inserted and tried again, still nothing. Insereted different batteries, same results! Reversed the polarity of the batteries, same result. The radio would not turn on right from the package.
I both this a few months ago to use at work. It's a great little radio! I prefer earphones with the rubber ear piece so I don't use the earphones that came with it. It's small enough that I can put it in my pocket. I really like that. I don't use the wristband. Maybe if it was more like a watch band I would. I really do like the radio itself and it's sound is really good.
I bought this about a month ago because I am an old school type of person. I love the ear phones and the way they fit. I was surprised to see the extra head phone rubbers that came with it. I guess the only thing that bugs me is the square that is in the arm band the keeps going long ways. I think an oval one would be a better choice for the as it wouldn't bunch up. I guess I am afraid it might wear through the elastic, and I will have to make something else that will work. I am 65 and going back to the gym and don't want a phone around me.
I got this so I could listen to my favorite radio channel live without any delay outside of my car. This radio has immediate satellite signal with no delay and is easy to take with you on the go. Just what I was looking for!
I bought this a couple months ago and I'm so happy that I did! Great features such as armband to strap to your arm for running, AM/FM radio, Bass boost, clock and comes with ear buds. Wish it had an input option.
