RF320

The controls can be a little confusing. The hardest part was to set the clock and backlighting function to always on. Has a decent size screen though. I just wish they would make a decent size table radio like this with all these functions. This radio does sound okay but with a bigger speaker would likely sound even better. Lots of bands and choices. I just wish the keys to operate it were bigger, and easier to read. Most keys are multi-function so there are two things printed on each key. I was pleasantly surprised with SW reception in my area. Am and FM stations in my area are few and far between. I can't receive any WB broadcasts but there is a line-of-sight issue where I live. I'm in a valley between two mountains. No hits there...I may set up an external antenna over my roof in the near future. I'm not done trying yet. And BTW, this antenna is the skinniest antenna I have ever seen. The smallest section is like a thin piece of wire, and I do mean thin. I would change that if I could. Extensive use has already made it loosen a little. Good thing, because one good push down and you're going to have a bent antenna. I haven't used the recording function and I likely won't, but it is nice to have. The cell phone app needs device location permission upon install. I don't know why that is... Seems unnecessary. I have other radios that don't need it, so...I don't know if they sell that info...would be nice to know. But the buttons are bigger on my android phone. So, we have that. The USB also functions as data transfer for the TF card. It also serves as a charger, and PC audio. Thats a new one on me. The screen shows antenna signal strength. I like that! Bluetooth works but didn't keep signal on several occasions for me. This was in close proximity to each other. I don't use BT too often. Other reviewers say theirs worked fine. So... Overall, this is a decent radio. The RGB lighting is subtle and low key. Thats nice too. The volume goes loud. The rear base speaker works okay. Bigger sound from a small radio. I imagine that battery life drains faster at a high level. Good to use as an outside radio. Talk radio and music play well here. Good Job Raddy....two thumbs up here!

This is actually a great little radio! I was quite surprised at the sound quality and volume this little monster can produce! Even at a high volume, it still showed I had used very little battery usage after several hours of blasting music off of a TF card. With the app, you can at least see what the track info is. The actual radio's display can't do that so is just shows the track number. You can also play music directly from your phone or any other Bluetooth device. Radio reception is actually excellent even with the short whip antenna without a swivel. There is an EQ so you can taylor the sound to your liking. It picks up AM, FM, Shortwave, VHS, UHS, and the Weather band. So it has quite a wide coverage. It does Not, however, receive sideband. This would would have made it the ideal radio for me if it did. Hopefully, Raddy will come out with a similar model that includes this feature. For me, if it covered all the bands and side bands and options that the little 760 does, (yet has the MW sensitivity this radio does!) it would be for me a real winner! In any case, this is a great little radio! It has a few gimmicks that are just plain "gimmicky" but it is also a serious performer that will really surprise you! So unless you must have sideband in the shortwave, I think you will find this little radio will truly surprise you at how well it sounds and performs. I've seen radios many times its size that did not sound as good nor receive as well.

This is a neat little radio. I purchased this primarily for its looks. For its appearance I give it a 5/5. I'm located in Ottawa, Canada and I can get AM channels from Toronto, Boston and Connecticut at times. I can receive WRMI Miami on shortwave fairly clearly (even more so that the local CHU time signal from NRC), and I heard a station from Romania at one time. There's not much in my area wrt VHF and AIR bands so I don't use those. For reception I give a 3½/5. The app works well. It's a nice add-on though I don't see myself using it often, mainly to use the record function which is only available through the app. 4/5 The sound is great for a smallish radio, that additional rear speaker really gives it a good presence. It does offset the center of gravity and makes the unit a little tippy toward the rear so be careful not to put it on the edge of a table. FM sounds great! For sound 4½/5. There are two Bluetooth connections, one for the app and one for use as a Bluetooth speaker. The BT app connection works every time. The BT speaker connection sometimes fails to reconnect. (If you encounter this, power off the radio and wait for the LCD display to turn entirely off, then turn it back on and it reconnects - at least for me it does.) Bluetooth 3½/5. Adding an SD card (not included) is a great feature and I suggest getting one. It allows recording and also playback of a few digital audio formats. There's no sorting by Album or Artist or any of that. Just a track number on the LCD or a track title via the app. So I only put on maybe 5-10 files at any time. If I put an album on I'll concatenate the whole thing with mp3wrap to avoid having to cycle through multiple tracks. 4/5 The controls are good. They take a little getting used to as many buttons have multiple functions in different modes of operation or whether long-pressed or short-pressed. The auto-scan feature doesn't find anything on AM for me for some reason, even on strong local stations. FFWD and RWND in the playback mode are a little slow. For controls 4/5. Battery duration: if I use it a lot I have to recharge every few days. No complaints. 4/5 In brief I think this is decent unit and I have been having a lot of fun with it. My main uses are as an FM radio and bluetooth speaker and for those it does great. The other features work relatively well and add to the experience.

This was a cute little gadget, portable though mine lived on my desk. Ok as a Bluetooth speaker, so so as a radio Last week it simply stopped working. No trauma to the unit kinetic or electrical, went to switch on for Bluetooth. Nothing. Plugged in a charger, no sign of life. I pulled the rechargeable battery, reinserted it, still no sign of life. Not cheap, but big well made. A purchase I regret.

I bought this little radio on a whim and it arrived just yesterday, so I cannot vouch for it's durability or overall quality. And I must say outright that I did not expect this device to be so incredibly small. It's like, 4" square and less than 2" deep. And in my mind that's a great thing. It means I can pack this little gadget in my backpack for a backwoods journey and pull in radio stations in the wild. Another thing I didn't expect was the shear amount of functionality built into this little thing. Not only does it sport several bands of radio frequencies that can be dialed in with a few different redundancies, but it also lets you use it as an external bluetooth speaker and apparently through the inclusion of a TF card reader as well. And the App that comes with it to remotely control the radio is a great little touch for those of us who don't wish to climb out of the hammock to switch channels while enjoying a nice Montana sunset! so was the 8 foot wire antenna that could be attached to a tree branch. Overall it's a slick design and I hope it lasts a long time.

This is a very well made radio. Excellent sound with a very good quality speaker, excellent receiver sensitivity, good manual. I like it. One thing, In the manual, there are four selections for frequency ranges to choose from to allow for American and foreign differences. The default one, for American, limits one of the frequency ranges excluding the 22Mhz to 30Mhz AM frequencies and the other three are supposed to include that range, but when selected, is still excluded. That eliminates the 12 meter, 11 meter and 10 meter bands which includes Ham and CB band transmissions. Other than the 22Mhz to 30Mhz frequencies not being there, GREAT radio. Also, it does have a good scan function that scans fairly quickly. The large dial is for course location and the knob on the side does the fine tuning. The big Band button has a sub band small button beside it which is very helpful, too. The up and down arrows pressed quickly jumps to the next station and when held down a little longer goes into scanning up or down accordingly. Enjoy.

UPD!!! After a week of very delicate usage, the two volume buttons got completely broken. The buttons fall inwards. When I slightly press, they don't work at all, when I press harder, they act like the left "neighboring" buttons (i.e. Vol+ works as BT button, Vol- works as Memo button). This means that I can adjust the volume and set up the alarm only via the app, but the backlight isn't adjustable at all. I guess that the whole right side of the chip panel is broken off within the device because it wasn't fixed firmly! Unfortunately, I have to return the device to replace it (I love this radio and want to give it a second chance). ------- It's a great device! Delivery to Germany was delayed about a week due to "rules for handling lithium batteries," but the parcel arrived quickly and undamaged. I've been using the radio for about a week and my impressions are very positive. The device is a bit smaller than it appeared in photos and videos, which is actually a plus. The plastic quality is much better than it looked online — it feels nice in the hand and like a real piece of electronics, not a toy. One minor concern: the rotary knob looks slightly crooked. I’m not sure if it’s a defect and I’m reluctant to disassemble the unit, but the knob works perfectly otherwise. I like the accessories, especially the wired antenna, which significantly improves shortwave reception. The instructions can be confusing at times — they appear to be translated from Chinese — but I managed to figure out the button functions and the app fairly quickly; a few details still need clarification. I live in Tbilisi (South Caucasus) and have caught shortwave and medium-wave stations from Ukraine, China, Iran, Romania, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and the Vatican. I even once picked up a weather forecast on the airwaves, which rarely broadcasts here, but at least that showed the function works. The only band that’s completely silent locally is WB — those waves aren’t used in our part of the world. There are a few minor flaws: you can’t save marquee mode settings — the radio always reverts to S1 when powered on — and the app doesn’t let you set how many minutes the radio-alarm runs (that can only be done with the buttons). I also experienced one serious issue when connecting in PC mode to transfer recorded files from the microSD: it worked once, but the next time the connection dropped and the radio froze with no button response. I feared firmware corruption, but I was able to power it off and on again; it recovered, so it may have been an OS issue on my computer. Overall, I’m very satisfied. The radio has many small, thoughtful details that show it was designed with care and attention.

I love this radio. They also have excellent customer service. I was a mistaken to accuse Raddy of mis-information about having Android and Harmony OS apps on a previous review. They do have an ios and android app! I am new to android and did not realize that you must use "other camera options" menu to scan a qr code. I also had my browser in stealth privacy mode keeping camera access off for browser QR scan options. If you search on the google play store there is no app. You have to download only via QR code for this hidden app. I guess seasoned andriod users understand how google hides stuff when the app developer does not pay advertising fees! Note that Raddy has a manual pdf on this product amazon page. It does assume you can scan the QR code correctly ... unlike myself as a new android user. Update ... I now see a review from Keith ..... "The description does not make it clear that you have to get the Android Phone App from a website in China, rather than the Google Play Store. Downloading apps from unsecure sites is not a safe practice." ..... I do trust Raddy more than Google play ... but Raddy maybe needs to mention the app is not on google play, and show how the QR code scan is required to access this app using camera "other/scan" menu.

Bateria fraca, substituir por uma com 3400 mAh. Chatinho pra programar.

Super bien, altamente valorado y muy bonito y funcional, lo recomiendo ampliamente, realmente me gustó, y más en este color caqui, excelente, estética 10 de 10, excelente volumen, sin exageración, excelente textura, excelente calidad de ensamble, que más puedo decir

Een goede radio met zeer goede ontvangst alhoewel ik in het Centrum woont kun je er redelijk vele radio stations ontvangen dus goed geslaagd.

Ich bin ein Hifibastler und arbeite als mein Hobby alte Hifitechnik aus den 70‘ern + 80‘ern auf (Tonbandgeräte, Kassettendecks, Radios, Plattenspieler usw.). Durch dieses Hobby weiß ich, was klanglich möglich ist und habe immer einen Vergleich zu neuen Geräten. Nun habe ich mir aus Interesse einfach mal ein paar kompakte Radios gekauft, um zu sehen, was heutzutage angeboten wird und ich war teilweise wirklich positiv überrascht. Die Firma Raddy kannte ich vorher noch nicht, nun besitze ich bereits 5 Radios von Raddy. Auch wenn einige Geräte scheinbar eine Gemeinschaftsproduktion mit anderen Herstellern zu sein scheint (z.B. Retekess), bewerte ich hier mithilfe meiner Erfahrungen die Firma Raddy. Hier geht es nun um das außergewöhnliche Raddy RF-320: Das Gehäuse / die Funktionen: - ein tolles „Solid-State-Design“ der 80‘er - digitales Display und analoge Anzeige getrennt beleuchtbar - schöne Beleuchtungsdetails – sogar auf der Rückseite (als indirekte Stimmungsbeleuchtung) - seitlich eingebaute Taschenlampe mit guter Streuung - saubere Verarbeitung und teils sehr schöne haptische Bedienung über die beiden Frequenzeinstellräder - eine schöne doppelte LED Lichterkette oben drauf wird zur Anzeige von (VU) Pegel verwendet und ist ein absolutes Design-Highlight, abschaltbar - die Tasten an der Front besitzen alle eine Doppelbelegung - Bluetooth Wiedergabe bzw. in Verbindung mit der Raddy-App mit Handy fernbedienbar - MP3 Wiedergabe und weitere Formate über Micro-SD Karte - Stereowiedergabe über Klinkenbuchse - AUX – Eingang über Klinkenbuchse - austauschbarer 18650‘er Akku Der Empfang: Auch der Sendersuchlauf gestaltet sich hier als ein Design-Highlight, da sich direkt mit dem Rad eine interne Rundskala dreht, die zwar nur in % analog anzeigt, wo man ist, aber dafür wird die Frequenz zuverlässig im linken Display angezeigt. - Sender rasten sauber und einfach ein - die Sender finden sich sehr einfach mit dem Senderrrad, manche Sender sind aber nicht ganz rauschfrei empfangbar, wo andere Raddyradios etwas rauschärmer regeln Zwischen den Sendern gibt es zum Glück mal keine komplette Rauschunterdrückung, was den manuellen Sendersuchlauf extrem vereinfacht (z.B. im SW und MW Band). Die Empfangsstärke würde ich als mittelgut einstufen. Bei FM ist der Empfang vertretbar gut. Dafür konnte ich im SW-Band einige schwache Sender garnicht reinbekommen, das ist aber mehr meckern auf hohem Niveau. Der Klang: Insgesamt gibt es hier einen sehr sauberen Lautsprecherklang mit klaren Höhen, der aber leider nur über teils unbrauchbare Equalizer-Voreinstellungen veränderbar ist. Der interne 5 W Mono-Lautsprecher besitzt eine zusätzliche Bassmembrane auf der Rückseite und ist im Gehäuse getrennt gekapselt, wodurch der tiefe Bass etwas betont wird. Nicht so doll ist der Klang über den Stereo Klinken-Kopfhöreranschluss – hier fehlt es einfach an Höhen und Bässen und die voreingestellten Equalizereinstellungen machen das Ganze nicht besser. Fazit: Raddy – bitte integriert bei solchen schönen Radios eine getrennte Bass- und Höhenregelung – die voreingstellten Equalizerklänge bieten nicht das, wozu das Radio fähig ist. Ansonsten ein schönes und außergewöhnliches Radio im 80‘er Jahre Solid-State-Design mit sehenswerter VU-Anzeige und haptisch sehr angenehmer Senderwahl. Der Klang mit dem Lautsprecher ist top aber über Klinkenbuchse etwas ausbaufähig. Ich vergebe trotzdem volle 5 Sterne, weil das einfach ein tolles Radio ist und dazu gibt es eine klare Kaufempfehlung für Sammler und Radiofans, die etwas optisch Besonderes haben wollen.

Doet het goed op alle frequenties goed geluid Zou fijn zijn dat er een aansluiting voor een externe antenne op zat maar zonder heb je ook goede onvangst
