Sangean DT-120 Pocket Radio - Clear
921593
Just received my Sangean DT-120 pocket radio today and I am pleased with this device. The clear case is designed for use in correctional facilities, just in case that makes a difference. I intend on using this while at baseball games.

Pros:
+ Small size fits into any pocket
+ Lock switch prevents accidents when in your pocket
+ Excellent reception
+ Controls are intuitive and easy to use

Cons:
- Clear case makes printing over the buttons hard to see
- No back light for LCD screen to see station ID in the dark

Neutral:
= No external speaker - must use headphones or ear buds
= No extendable antenna - cord for ear buds acts as antenna

Changes:
* Earlier models of the clear version did not have the 90-minute timer feature. Mine DID come with the 90-minute timer that can easily be turned off. This appears to be a change in the clear model and I am completely neutral about this feature.
* There is another timer feature that I have not heard of before in previous reviews or in the posted description of the radio on Amazon - if you unplug the headphones the radio will shut off automatically after about 10 seconds to help save the battery.  It is mentioned in the user manual and I like this feature.
* Mine came with chrome trim around the LCD screen instead of black as shown in the posted picture.  This possibly denotes the most recent version of this radio with the added features I mention above.

Overall this was a good purchase albeit a little pricey for a basic am/fm radio. The digital tuning is an excellent option and I would recommend this pocket radio to anyone looking for a basic, small, high-quality unit.

I am very happy with my new radio, I am able  to get clear stations in, which I could not with my two previous self powered radios.  It can be powered by solar, and then power my cell phone.  I used my usb phone charger to power it with my computer, so I could also do that with  a regular outlet also.  I also hand cranked it for a bit.  so it is just what I needed.  Thank you so much.

This radio was given as a Christmas present and the person receiving was very happy with it. All Sangean products I've purchased in the past have been A-one. Some of these radios I've given as gifts are still in use after several years. All the input from others have helped me tremendously....one of the reasons I love Amazon.

I was looking for a portable AM/FM radio that could operate on AC or batteries.  I also wanted an external FM antenna and I wanted the unit capable of stereo. The Sangean PR-D5 not only met every requirement that I wanted, it exceeded it.  This radio is fantastic. It has digital tuning and RDS. You can also plug a MP3 player into it and play your stored music with outstanding quality and volume.  The radio is a little pricey but I think it is worth it. It you listen to AM you will be very pleased with the reception of the internal AM antenna.

For anyone who has a hard time figuring out some of today's electronic gadgets, this radio is the way to go.  Everything is straightforward.  Both the volume control and channel changer are knobs that you actually turn.  Sure, it has some features that require buttons, such as programmable radio station presets, but that shouldn't deter anyone from buying this product.  The sound quality is superior.  In fact, the person for whom I bought it said that the sound quality is as good as if not better than the Bose radio he just returned.  I recommend the Sangean WR-2 radio highly.

I have purchased several small Sangean AM/FM radios. I had been ordering the larger one with the belt clip.  It fell off all the time, which is why I have had several.  Not knocking it, I loved the reception, which was my main need.  I listen the AM radio while I am walking my dog. I live in a very rural area.  So I need good reception.  This product offers good reception and is small enough to go in your pocket.  An additional benefit is that the FM antenna is part of the ear piece rather than a separate wire, as with the larger version.  I am very glad that I decided to order a different style this time.

I bought this radio for my desk at work.  The sound is very clear and works better then most expensive radios.  Happy with my purchase.

This is a good little radio. It has good reception on most stations and a clear crisp sound on the closest stations. It doesn't have any bass, so the sound is somewhat tinny, but that can be said of most pocket radios. I like the look of it, the color, and the button placement. The buttons do NOT make a beeping sound when you press them (which is good). There is only a low clicking sound when you press the buttons (you hardly notice it). The backlight is orange (or amber) in color and only lights up for about 3 - 5 seconds when you press any button. You have to step up through the stations or you can set your favorites to memory and only step up a few times to get to your desired station. The antenna telescopes and is too heavy for the body of the radio, but you can still stand it up if you're careful or if you prop it up against something. The volume control is a turn wheel on the upper right side of the radio. You have to press the lower left button to switch between AM, FM, and shortwave (which is indicated on the LCD screen.) It is in mono when it plays through out loud, but certain stations are in stereo when you plug in a set of headphones (which is indicated on the display). FM reception is good, AM is decent for local stations, and shortwave is sketchy as is usual with these pocket radios. You get an optional wrist strap rope with it that you can leave off if you want. It's a bit thin, but, all in all, it's a good radio that's worth buying.

This little radio is great deal.  I carry it in my shirt pocket while doing chores around the house.  I get great reception and excellent sound with the base boost.  The frequency dial stays at it,s setting and the volume adjust is exactly where it belongs:  right on top when clipped to your shirt pocket for easy one finger adjustment.  The advertisement said that it was refurbished.  I can't tell by looking at it.  It looks brand new.

The Sangean PR-D18 is a portable radio that looks rugged and ready for business.
Search my name and model of radio on Youtube for a in-depth review.

The features I like best about this radio:
* Digital Display.
* Alarm functions were top notch, allowing you change the volume of the wake sound.
* Five quick presets for each band.
* Clock.
* Easy to use.
* Fantastic FM reception, and decent AM reception.

Features I wish this radio had:
* Tone control, a little to bassy on the AM band.
* Frequency stays displayed while radio is on...not the clock.
* Carrying handle of some type.
* Matte plastics, this thing is a fingerprint magnet.  Looks awful pretty quick.

I recommend this radio as a buy for those looking for simplicity but still want a digital tuner.  Great for a kids room, small shop, ect..

The sound is clear when listening to music or radio. I am satisfied with the purchase. I would recommend this item to friends and family. And of course the price was reasonable compared to other stores.

I am completely satisfied with this radio.  Without any previous experiance with Sangean, it was hard to distinguish from the various radios offered in the AM/FM/Waterproof group.  This one sounded best and I suspect it is.  The case is very solid, auto-tuning is easy to set up, it picks up the weak AM stations better than manual tuning, which isn't always the case, sound is great and battery life looks promising--it hasn't yet dropped below a full-strength level reading so I can't quantify battery life, but I think it will be fine.  It is, as described in the advertising, bigger than many small AM/FM radios, but the high quality makes it worth it!  ENJOY YOURS!

I've only had this radio a short time but really enjoy using it.  I like to use a small portable radio like this while working, and I need my hands free.  This radio fits easily in my pocket or belt and still gets great reception.  And I expecially like the lock button that keeps the station or volume settings from being changed accidently.  I travel for work so it's sometimes necessary to roam around to find a station I want to hear.  This little radio does a great job of picking up stations.  It's such an improvement over the old Sony I was using.  I like the weather feature, too.  The backlight affords the ability to use it in the dark or in poor light.  I would recommend the Sangean DT-400W for anyone wanting a small portable/pocket-size radio with excellent reception and sound capabilities.  Very happy with Sangean quality.

I bought this radio for my father. He loves it! It is easy to use, the sound is great, and it is portable.

Really like this little radio. Fits in a pocket or purse, gets good reception & has its own speaker plus
a place to plug in earphones.
