Sangean DT-200X FM-Stereo/AM Digital Tuning Pocket Radio

This is a Excellent radio, I don't think it can be beat for the price, a digital radio with 19 preset stations, and very easy to use, they kept it very simple to use.
Received this unit a few days ago and I love it. I am getting great reception without headphones or antenna.
With the additional antenna, I can receieve AM stations and the quality of transmission is great.
The radio is intelligently designed, with controls in logical places for one's hands.
The radio has excellent receiving qualities, particularly in an area of competing broadcasts: NE.

Sangean DT-210 FM-Stereo/AM PLL Synthesized Tuning Pocket Radio

Reception is clear. Discrimination is very good when we must reach a relatively weak station in Cincinnati, etc. alongside a powerful Mexico station on the border, etc.
The plug-in wire antenna is a bit mickey mouse, but it does the job without taking up the internal space a telescopic antenna would.
The miniplug type wire antenna works well, and is also less bulky and heavy than conventional telescoping rigid antennas.
Typical quality Sangean product. Small, lightweight with great reception.
The radio is the perfect fit for my needs. Small, great reception (using antenna), easy controls, good sound at medium/medium-high volume (becomes distorted at higher volumes).

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Sangean DT-200X FM-Stereo/AM Digital Tuning Pocket Radio

I've love this little black pearl of a radio. It gets a solid buy from me. You will not regret your purchase at all.
One indefinable plus: It is such a "solid" little radio that you simply admire the craftmanship. Somebody did some nice engineering.
Without question, this little radio is light years ahead of any other I have used.
This is an amazing little electronic marvel. It has excellent reception and has shown a long, useful life.
The only negative issue, which is just inherent in a radio of this size is that the built in speaker can not produce a full rich sound.

Sangean DT-210 FM-Stereo/AM PLL Synthesized Tuning Pocket Radio

I can honestly say that I could not be more pleased. The sound quality is excellent for such a small radio.
It's quite small, weighs practically nothing, and it easily fits into most any pocket.
The lock station is definitely a plus, sound quality is great for a small radio.
I have been looking for a small portable am/ fm radio. Love to listen to the radio at night as I go sleep.
This small pocket sized receiver does everybit as good as the high priced, highly amplified signal, rotatable antenna setups in the house.

What customers say about "Features"

Sangean DT-200X FM-Stereo/AM Digital Tuning Pocket Radio

The Sound Quality is Very good on speaker and Excellent with a Good set of earbuds.
The quality of this radio is much better. Not only can you use it with earbuds but you can also use it without them.
I love having a speaker if you don’t have or want headphones all the time.
The speaker often produces mediocre to poor AM sound.
This speakers sound at normal listening levels is somewhat distorted by interference on AM stations that have all but the strongest signal.

Sangean DT-210 FM-Stereo/AM PLL Synthesized Tuning Pocket Radio

The lock feature is also a plus in that you can still adjust the volume while in lock mode, a very nice feature to have while walking.
The Sangean came with ear buds, a belt clip, and an antenna wire for FM. It has a nice display as well.
The speaker is good, I'm using my own Sony headphones for comfort, the clarity is 100% perfect for nearby stations.
The sound quality coming from the built-in speaker is also comparable or better than the bigger and heavier units.
The only problem I have is pre-setting stations, and then recalling the stations I saved.

What customers say about "Power"

Sangean DT-200X FM-Stereo/AM Digital Tuning Pocket Radio

VERY LONG Battery Life. I like that the FM antenna is a Wire that plugs into the headphone jack, typical metal telescoping antennas are very fragile.
The batteries last a long time if you use the earphones. Overall, this is exactly what I was looking for.
Battery life is amazing with earphones, which is the way I always listen.
I would rate the battery life as excellent, and the battery indicator gives you plenty of warning.
Average life seems to be about four years. Batteries are good for about 20 hours or so. The auto off feature is a good one for my purpose.

Sangean DT-210 FM-Stereo/AM PLL Synthesized Tuning Pocket Radio

Battery life is good. and the batteries are easily changed. The battery covers stay attached to the radio - a small plus but a good one.
Battery power is excellent. I have had mine about three months. Still on the original set of batteries after 35-45 hours of use.
Battery life is surprisingly good - using for a month now on the originals.
Battery life is quite long, several hours with headphones, like up to 8hrs -- I use rechargeable AAAs.
Runs on two AAA batteries, easily available anywhere. Run this thing maybe 15 hours a week, and batteries will last for months.
