What's great about it: Reception, Simplicity, Battery Life
I bought this radio wanting something that's simple to use, and will last in the long run. It is small enough to fit in a pocket. The radio doesn't have many functions other than volume, tuning, AM/FM toggle, and an optional earphone plug. I like how easy it is to use. The reception is unbeatable, and the built in speaker can be turned up very loud. I would absolutely buy this again!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Very Good FM/AM Reception, Nice Appearance, Lightweight
What's not so great: N/A
The Panasonic RF-P50 FM/AM Pocket Radio is a very capable analog receiver of traditional radio broadcasts. The radio's performance and feature set is generally good. Sound quality emanating from its 2.25 inch monaural speaker is enjoyable and detailed, but not spectacular. FM/AM reception is clear on this very small portable. It is very easy to tune in my favorite sports radio stations on the AM band and classic rock broadcasts on the FM band via its slide-rule tuning control. A red LED indicator lights up when you have locked in on a particular station. The LED tuning indicator is a great feature, as it allows me to tune in stations accurately in low light conditions, and lets me know that the radio is powered on. I have not felt the need to extend the telescopic whip antenna frequently when listening to my favorite FM radio stations. AM performance is of very high quality off the internal ferrite bar antenna. This Panasonic RF-P50 radio does not demonstrate any selectivity or sensitivity issues in its day-to-day performance. I am able to receive every FM and AM station that is intended for the radio market that I reside in. AM DX reception performance is adequate for this product category. The Panasonic RF-P50 pocket radio features list include: analog slide-rule tuning dial, FM/AM tuner, rotary volume/power control, FM/AM band selector switch, 3.5mm earphone jack, FM telescopic whip antenna, built-in AM ferrite bar antenna, FM/AM dial scale, 2.25 inch monaural speaker, LED tuning indicator, carry strap, detachable battery compartment cover, attractive silver finish, lightweight design, decent build quality, and operating instructions. The Panasonic RF-P50 radio is powered by two AA batteries and offers great battery life. The Panasonic RF-P50 FM/AM pocket radio is a great companion for a family picnic, walks in the park, listening to the ballgame, and to stay informed when there is an emergency weather or power outage event. The Panasonic RF-P50 pocket radio’s dimension measurements are as follows: Height: 4-5/8”, Width: 2-¾”, Depth: 1-3/16”, and Weight: 4.9 ounces (without batteries). This unit also includes a one year parts and labor limited manufacturer warranty. Overall rating is 4.5 stars. I like this Panasonic FM/AM pocket radio. Good Luck. Enjoy.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: loud for it's size, good reception, easy to use
What's not so great: a little pricey for just a radio
Wanted a go-anywhere radio for travel and leisure. Gets all my favorite stations fine, even AM stations (harder to get in the mountains).
I would recommend this to a friend!
