Review: Really good product - Arrived early and very pleased with the radio, loads of channels, most of which are crystal clear. Sound is pretty good too, and is well worth the money, very easy to use and tune into the radio stations. Review: Great rugged basic radio with MP3 playback and well made - This is a good quality basic radio with MP3 playback using micro SD, SD and USB. It is quite compact and rugged as described. It looks pleasingly clear. It has one of the best speakers I have come across in this price bracket. Not a cheap 0.5w speaker but one that can carry watts. Consequently the sound is good. The radio is nothing special really, but works well and tuning is light and smooth. The MP3 function is again basic but the sound is really good. It comes with mains power or D type batteries, not supplied. This radio will run a very long time on D type batteries. I remember the days when radios like this would use a PP3 battery, nothing like as good. Very pleased with it. Great radio. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 36 months - AM FM SW band radio; 3 frequency band radio, better receiving effect; good receiving performance; listening to your favorite radio programs anytime;anywhere - Clear sound speaker;with 3.5 inch large speakers for loud and clear sound and excellent sound quality;volume is high enough for indoor or outdoor;you can use portable radio to listen to news, music and games - Easy to operate;large setting of the dial and large button hand;simple and clear function display;no complex function buttons;very suitable for the elderly and also a suitable gift for young people to give it to elders - The overall layout is simple and clear;easy to observe;well made sturdy case is durable;not easy to scrape and wear;suitable for outdoor scenes such as beaches - Retro radio vintage design enhances stylish aesthetics; can be used as a home decoration to improve the retro atmosphere of the living room - Multiple audio input modes;MP3 playback is powerful with USB/TF/SD player support MP3 WMA forma;with 3.5mm earphone jack;can play your favorite music stored on the U disk - The integrated DSP chip;the radio on the TR618 can be easily locked; no deviation occurs; signal receiving is more stable - It is easy to carry; the overall layout is simple and clear; easy to observe; well made; the shell is strong and durable; it is not easy to scratch and wear; suitable for outdoor scenes such as beaches - Power; there are two ways of power supply in the transistor radio; AC power supply (including) or 3*D batteries (excluding); listening to wonderful broadcast music at any time; anywhere outside the kitchen or park - Ideal gifts; whether there are elderly people in your family; those who like to listen to broadcast; you may want to give this user -friendly short wave radio as a gift to your family; TR618 can meet the needs of broadcasting listening, and it is very easy to use ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08G86MP4C | | Antenna Location | Music, News, Sports Broadcast | | Best Sellers Rank | 17,271 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 75 in Portable AM/FM Radios | | Box Contents | 1* Charging line, 1* TR618 FM Radio, Owner's Manual | | Brand | Retekess | | Brand Name | Retekess | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Earphone, MP3 Player | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 221 Reviews | | Display Technology | LCD | | Display Type | LCD | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Frequency | 108 MHz | | Hardware Interface | 3.5mm Audio, USB | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 22L x 13.7W x 6.4H centimetres | | Item Weight | 870 Grams | | Manufacturer | Retekess | | Manufacturer Part Number | TR618 | | Maximum Speaker Output Power (in watts) | 6 Watts | | Model Number | TR618 | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Batteries | 3 D batteries required. | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Features | MP3 player, Portable | | Product Warranty | We provide 1 year warranty and 30 days no reason to return.

Great radio. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent little radio *by K***E on 28 December 2022* Somewhat smaller than I anticipated and the casing much lighter in weight than I thought it would be. Decent sound from speakers -they don't sound too tinny, but they're small, so not going to sound like Jansen studio speakers anyway. The volume and tuning dials are very easy to use, they don't wobble on their spindles and are responsive to turning. The smaller dials are wobbly on their spindles and don't seem particularly robust; this could do with improvement. Battery compartment properly soldered and accepts standard D batteries with secure tension and fitting, and the radio does run on batteries. Carry handle works and feels tight in the housing. The antenna works and pivots easily and well, but isn't very robust, so needs handling with care. Cord could have been 20cm or so longer, but it's adequate and well made. I would recommend this radio overall, but think the price point is a bit high (close to £50 at time of purchase) because the casing isn't very strong and the 2 smaller dials feel flimsy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retekess TR618 Portable FM AM SW Radio, Digital Shortwave Radio, Mains and Battery, Vintage Transistor, Antenna, Headphones Jack USB TF, Site, Work, Bathroom, Kitchen, Outdoor (Black) - Duracell Plus D Batteries (6 Pack) - Alkaline 1.5V - 100% Life Guaranteed - Reliability For Everyday Devices - 0% Plastic Packaging - 10-Year Storage - LR20 MN1300 - Retekess TR604 Portable Radio,FM AM Radio,Large Display and Knob,Large Speaker,Clear Sound,Headphone Jack,Radios Mains and Battery,Easy to Use for Elderly (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/365116375-tr618-portable-radio-digital-shortwave-radio-black-for-kitchen-outdoor](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/365116375-tr618-portable-radio-digital-shortwave-radio-black-for-kitchen-outdoor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-26*
