XHDATA D368 Pocket Radio Portable Transistor Radio AM FM SW Battery Radio Retro Supports TF Card/USB/Bluetooth MP3 Player

This little radio performs beyond my expectations by leaps and bounds! Reception in my home should be pitiful, solid stone walls, wi-fi, upstairs using every known device and this compact radio still found a lot of SW stations with just the supplied antenna!! FM reception is off the charts! Picks up more stations than my other little portable radio. Overall I'd say reception is excellent! I'm looking forward to getting my 10m wire antenna! The radio is well constructed and of excellent quality, the buttons are solid in use and the joy of using a rotary wheel to tune is sublime. It's very easy to use right out of the box (which is excellent packaging) the information sheet consists of two small pages in English, simple to read and understand. The sound is of a very high standard too, a surprisingly bassy tone, especially on the FM stations! Although short wave is not everyone's cup of tea I love gently wheeling through the bands and hearing those broadcasts from around the world is joyous. I've heard French, Chinese, Americans and some Arab chat, all of that in the first five minutes of taking it off charge! Charging is done via a USB-C cable which is supplied. Not too sure on battery life yet so I can't comment yet. In summary..... solidly built radio, excellent quality and excellent reception. Extremely cheap for what you actually get! Highly recommended!

It's been about two years and still going well. My father loves it.

I received this the XHDATA D-368 a few days ago and I'm pleasantly surprised. It's the First DSP radio with Analogue tuning dial I have used that is rather enjoyable to operate, very little chuffing when tuning, This radio is far more enjoyable to tune than the XHDATA D-808 Tecsun PL-330, Tecsun PL-310et and Degen DE1103. The XHDATA D-368 is very sensitive on the Whip, adding a few meters of thin wire to the antenna makes a big difference and so far I have not noticed any overloading. Now for some negatives. Sound quality on AM/SW , XHDATA use a very narrow filter which makes the audio a bit muffled, adding a Music/Talk switch could have simply switched to a Narrow/Wide filter, it's a DSP radio after all so selectable bandwidths are built in to the DSP chip. No external antenna input, this would be good to connect proper external antennas although I appreciate the fact that this radio is a small portable but it's so simple to add external antenna input. There is no 75 meter band which is very disappointing because 75m Is very active in Europe every night. I tested bluetooth and it works fine, sound quality is good. The 368 is very sensitive on FM and I had no problem pulling in weaker signals and the tuning dial is very accurate both on FM, AM and SW. Sound is also good on FM but sadly as I said they decided to use a very narrow filter for AM/SW. In the evening time I can pick up several MW stations several hundred Kms away and more. Not stellar MW performance but quite acceptable for a radio of this size, by comparison, my Tecsun PL-301et can't receive many stations that are clear on this 368. I live in a very quite area with little to no electronic generated noise that can seriously effect reception, but things like USB chargers, phone chargers, laptop chargers bad quality LED bulbs, stick to branded bulbs like Philips and Osram and stay away from Cheap no brand bulbs especially when it comes to ceiling and outdoor flood lights. If you are not able to receive many stations on all bands at different times of the day it's not the radio it could be interference especially if all you hear is buzzing, on this radio I can pick up many, many stations especially in the evening and night. Some wire 10 + meters out a window tied to a tree will greatly improve Shortwave reception. But even on the whip antenna I can pick up many stations, if you can't try go outside or take the radio to a quiet, less urban area where there's a lot of electronic noise. I haven't really tested battery life yet but I did not charge it yet after getting it and using it for several hours. USB C is very convenient for charging. Things I would absolutely love to see on a future model. I would love Long Wave. Much larger radio with back lit analogue display and buttons. 75m and SSB and more bands. SSB is useful to listen to Hams or some Air traffic on Shortwave. A large Display. External antenna input and selectable bandwidths. Use the bluetooth/ SD card media display for digital readout of frequency in the same red colour but keep the Analogue dial. Conclusion. Very surprised how well XHDATA managed to make the tuning so good and offers a much better analogue like experience. The selectivity of the radio is excellent, DSP radios with Analogue dial radios often likes to latch on to strong signals and it can be very difficult to select weaker stations but the 368 managed to tune in weaker stations with no issue. There is some muting on very weak stations but I found that I can't hear them either on the D-808. I noticed no images or overloading caused by strong signals. I hope to see more radios like this because I love Analogue dial radios but would love a bigger one with the features I mentioned above and I would pay more for it. I'm not really interested in USB/SD card or Bluetooth but I can see the appeal. Buy this radio, you won't be disappointing.

Great little radio good quality and speaker is better than i expected. Battery life is good recharges reasonably quickly and can be replaced once expired. Manual rotary controls feel good and screen is legible. For the money this radio packs a serious punch way above its light and compact weight. Reception has been good with existing retractable ariel probably better with ariel extensions for those enthusiasts who like to catch signals. Has 2 FM bands and AM plus 9 SW bands so plenty to keep most people happy. Versatile as you can use USB and mp3 and it has a standard headphone socket if you dont want to annoy others. As a basic or beginners set or as a standard every day radio its great for the money.

The sound quality is excellent. The controls are easy to use and well placed on the device. It has a sturdy feel and attractive appearance. It can pick up all sorts of stations very clearly. I am extremely impressed with this little radio. I love the fact that it is rechargeable and the battery seems to go on for a long time on a full charge.

Great sounding little radio considering its size. Bought solely if there is a power cut. But everything on it works well. Feels quite solid and well-made. Picks up plenty of channels even here in Wales. Like the idea, it has rechargeable batteries. It Plays USB device music just fine. Not exactly cheap considering its size, but overhaul very pleased. Not had a chance to see how long the battery last yet, as not yet needed.

So much better than expected for the price ! 4.75mhz to 22mhz Great to take on hill walks etc

There is nothing bad to be said about this little radio. I had a similar one before but it went missing at work so bought this one as a replacement. Battery lasts agegs and ages. I am not into digital things and the old faashioned dial suits me down to the ground. Nice sound especially through earbuds via bluetooth. If this one also goes missing I'll be back yet again for another one because at the price you cant go wrong. Recommended.

A prima vista sembrerebbe una radiolina old style come quella usata dai nostri nonni/genitori per seguire le partite del campionato di calcio ma appena accesa rivela un insospettabile suono pieno, godibile fino ad alto volume, chiariamo, non è un impianto HiFi, ma per quello che costa e per le dimensioni contenute, non credo possa avere molti rivali sempre in riferimento all'uso a cui è destinata. In buona sostanza, oltre a quanto detto sul suono e sulle dimensioni, ha un'ottima ricezione radio, si possono collegare sia le chiavette USB che le microSD oltre che gli smartphone, questi ultimi tramite bluetooth, per ascoltare le vostre raccolte/app musicali, ha una batteria estraibile, ricaricabile tramite apposito cavetto/alimentatore, oltretutto, compatibile con quello dei moderni smartphone (USB type C), che permette una autonomia media di alcune ore (4-6), completano la dotazione una lunga antenna estraibile e un laccetto da polso. Insomma se volete una fedele accompagnatrice musicale nei vostri momenti di relax e non avete grosse pretese l'oggetto in questione vi darà grandi soddisfazioni.

Excellente radio au rapport qualité prix juste incroyable. Réception FM et ondes courtes sérieuse et durable, son génial, fonctionnalités au top, vraiment super. Quand je veux écouter les ondes courtes, et bien que possédant de nombreuses radios haut de gamme, je ne tourne toujours vers ce petit pays qui fait parfaitement le job. À posséder absolument dans sa collection.

mükemmel bi radyo, şarjı uzun gidiyor. ben alırken dijital gösterge frekansı gösterir diyerek almıştım ama sadece mp3 modunda çalışıyor yinede memnunum.

Verrassend goed geluid uit zo'n klein radio'tje. Opladen via USB-C kabel. Geen idee hoelang die het uithoudt met een volle batterij, maar wel errrrrrug lang. Het is een vrij klein doosje, dus het laat zich makkelijk opbergen.

To mój kolejny zakup tego radia. Niestety drugi egzemplarz nic nie odbiera na falach krótkich SW. Pierwszy egzemplarz radia dobrze odbiera na wszystkich falach, na krótkich też. Radio na DSP. Czy producent nie sprawdza jakości odbiorników przed sprzedażą? Dziwne. Mam mieszane odczucia. Dobrze, że nieudany egzemplarz radia można zwrócić.
