PRUNUS J-618 Portable Radio AM FM, Support Bluetooth Headphones Connection, Small Digital Radio with 2000mah Rechargeable Battery, Manual Preset/TF Card/Headphone Jack/Sleep Timer

Excellent sound quality with even smooth bass what surprised me. Bluetooth is unique because you can use it as a portable speaker or connect it to a headphones. Aerial is not so fragile like on some portable radios and reception is decent as well. Baterry 2000mAh is okay.Just missing RDS information of the stations and too bright light of the screen is little irritating.Hopefully that PRUNUS will make some impruved model in the near future with DAB reception to make this radio unbeatable.

This is a sturdy and compact radio. The sound quality and output is ideal for my needs: speech. I have found that a rare feature in personal radios is the ability to pair with Bluetooth earbuds and the J-618 does just that. So handy for listening to podcasts while moving about the house without lugging the laptop around, using the speaker or headphones. Battery life is reasonable considering Bluetooth consumption. A very useful product at an affordable price. Perhaps Prunus will consider a DAB/DAB+ version of the J-618.

I ordered this J-618 Portable AM/FM radio from the amazon brand Prunus. In may ways it takes me back to my teenage experience just being able to take a tiny held-held radio out and about with me, you used see loads of guys with a radio like this one stuck to their ear when the football was on on a Saturday afternoon. This offers very good sound quality on FM with the ability to preset favourite stations. AM is a bit more tricky, it depends on the atmospheric conditions perhaps. My favourite other feature on it is the timer, so you can drown out the the neighbours squalking when you try to sleep in your bed.There is an LED display that shows the station frequency although my child is greatly disappointed it does not show the name of the song that's playing, as DAB would. It has USB-C charging but one charge doesn't last a particularly long time - certainly less than a day - so you have to keep charging it up. Wish they had just put a couple of AAs or AAAs in it and it would have lasted for months. Won't be what i turn to if the electrics ever go down, then.I'm giving it four stars, with one loppd off the the choice of USB charging over actual batteries.FOUR STARS

Great little radio. I've been looking for a small AM/FM radio with Bluetooth for earbud connectivity. App on my mobile but that never worked well. No need to plug in wired headphones to provide aerial. Brilliant

The media could not be loaded. This is rather different than other portable radios I have tried over the years, with some very positive points and one clear let down. First of all, it has to be said that the sound quality is good; really good for such a portable radio and at this price. The clarity is excellent without becoming brash or distorted at higher volumes. Better still, I rarely needed to extend the aerial to obtain a good reception.It is also genuinely small and fits in my hand easily. I like the look, though I found it slightly unstable and too easily knocked over if touched. The LCD readout gives it a precise, modern feel, though I would have liked it if the display also indicated the name of the station.Having the ability to hook up Bluetooth headphones is a real bonus if you want that; then there is the TF option, though I don’t know how many would use that these days. Then there is a timer function that will turn off after a designated period.In use, it is not complicated, but neither is it immediately intuitive, and I really did need to read the instructions.The one big let down for me is the battery. In theory, having a rechargeable battery is great, but as it says on the sales page, it lasts between 6-10 hours between charges, which is hardly saying goodbye to battery life anxiety. I have a small portable radio in the kitchen that is less stylish, but a couple of AA batteries that last months. A better battery would have made this a 5 star radio.

Not very loud no good for people with a hearing problems

Excellent FM/AM digital radio; good reception, FM slightly better, which you would expect. The Bluetooth feature is what I really bought the radio for, and I have to say it's a game changer to be able to use Bluetooth earbuds with this radio. Hopefully, they will release a DAB version with the same feature. Highly recommend this little gem.

Really pleased with this excellent radio. Battery life is very good. Mostly used for AM, listening to talk sport and reception is more than decent. Very happy with my purchase and would definitely buy another.
