Reviews:| Rating 3.5/5 from 46 reviews | | Great little radio | | Rating: 5/5 2010-04-06 | I have owned a couple of these little radios and am sad that they were discontinued by Sony. I am on my third, not because they are fragile or break easily, but rather because I ALWAYS have one going, and drop them, have been caught in the rain, etc...
I stream Sirius over FM in my house, and listen to it on this radio. It is a GREAT product. I also keep it by my bedside, in case I wake in the night and want to listen to get back to sleep. I can even use it with ease when half asleep. | | Best small radio I've ever had | | Rating: 5/5 2009-06-20 | | Have been using mine since it first came out. It is still the most compact on market, withstands a little athletic adventure and reception is excellent. I use it in mountains and other odd places and have had great luck with it. I have nothing to complain about. Mine finally died the day it went to the beach (?unknown reason) and I miss it greatly. Bought it when it was half the price, not sure the new price is realistic in the mp3 world. Would immediately buy another if price went down. | | Outdated product in today's age | | Rating: 1/5 2009-04-24 | Though its a good product, its outdated for today's technology. Also very difficult to tune it to the right station as auto-tune functionality hardly works
My cellphone FM gives much clear reception and is easier to carry around than this Sony radio. I am planning to sell it online as I am not finding any use of it now. Moreover, the sound quality is not good. The mega bass is not "mega" in any sense. The reception has lot of noise. I wonder how my cellphone radio is playing much better than a dedicated FM radio | | WOW!!!! Talk about a price increase!!!!! | | Rating: 2/5 2008-10-27 | I am currently on my third SRF-M97. I dropped the first one more than once, and it finally gave out. The second out wasn't dropped, but it wore out (I listen to the radio at work, walking the dog, getting ready in the morning...). I'm looking to replace my present one because although it will still get FM, for some reason it won't get AM anymore (and that's what I listen to -- go Randi and Stephanie!).
But there is NO way this radio is worth the new price. It's shocking that it's suddenly 3 times the amount of my 1st and over twice the price of the one I bought last year. The construction is REALLY, REALLY cheap.
I obviously loved this radio (buying 3 of them), but it's mostly because of the size. This price is ridiculous. | | Not Worth The Price | | Rating: 1/5 2008-04-27 | | Very bad reception for most of the FM stations where I live (in the San Jose area). Defintely not worth the price. |
