Now to the actual product: This is a great radio, it receives everything should receive it, VHF even slightly better than, for example, the built-in my phone radio.. It has all the features you need (yes, even a shuffle function) and then some, for. As well as the also prima functioning recording option. The operation is mostly self-explanatory, would probably only need to peek for the region setting times in the manual, but I had read here before in another comment. Admittedly, the manual is in English only at what does not bother me, but for some certain annoying (also applies to the Bedinungsmenü). The battery life seems to be all right, anyway, just a "bar" of the battery indicator has after about 2 hours of operation adopted. The supplied headphones I have not even tried; with my own but everything sounds the way it should.
Some had indeed criticized the processing: I do not think so. Of course is plastic, so it can not keep up with a higher-priced MP3 player o. Ä., But this is also sometimes really a bargain. And it also acts in total not soooo cheap that you would be afraid that the device does not or barely survived the warranty period. I would compare the design and processing rather with a 90-year-phone. Much worse, I find, and thus the only real point of criticism: permanently installed battery replacement is not possible or obviously unwelcome (no screws or similar visible, with which one could open the device without damaging it..). Admittedly, a disease from which almost all manufacturers of smaller electronic devices are affected, but nevertheless: Ugh! Long before the radio is broken, probably the battery will give up the ghost - the more intensively you use the device, the more likely. This is crap.
Conclusion: Who is at war with the English, should rather buy something else, and the prospect of having to discard a working device, just because the battery is over, I find extremely annoying. But we wait and see - perhaps I must also throw away along with a broken device a functioning battery. No Better, actually. In any case, the device could, if I myself choose battery / batteries or existing is likely to be even cheaper again. And unnötigg expensive equipment in my opinion, yes, the most significant obstacle to the digitization of broadcasting.
As I said, annoyed that, but still, at the price: buy recommendation!
