It's amazing what this little receiver offers (besides, we can not reduce it to a simple portable radio and I'll show it here!). First, evoke the aesthetic: the size of a quarto Gallimard about without the weight, the Soulra FRX3 would not stain placed next to a small mirror, in full African bush, when shaving the output of a tent; in any case its possibilities so authorized; it also will slip deftly in a bathroom or an apartment kitchen to keep informed us or distract us in music, and his look does not looks good in a modern decor. As for the bottom: this radio receiver offers a magnificent amount of opportunities; supply point of view, we can charge its rechargeable battery from a USB cable (on computer or AC, it comes with the job), 3 to 1.5 V batteries, or use solar energy via cleverly placed sensors on the handle, otherwise the manual cranking dynamo (3-4 mn mill, about 10-15 minutes of charge!). So that this position can never leave us without work, wherever we are. But that's not all, it can also power a smartphone or an MP3 player that would be the end of battery and whose use would be urgent and necessary! You read, it is therefore also an external battery. On the other hand, the FM radio and Longwave offers two Aux outputs and Phone (jacks), a flashlight that illuminates red or white choice, an alarm clock, a watch. In terms of sound, a mono speaker output quite well made (of course the bass lack depth and clarity of treble) in view of the smallness. It is primarily an extra instrument and baroudage but offers so many interesting possibilities I awarded him without hesitation the best possible evaluation.
