A perfect piece of junk

Bought this on a Saturday and returned it Sunday. Not worth forty cents, let alone forty bucks. Couldn't hold HD signal, audio output was weak into mp3 input on my car and screen is difficult to see. Plus, I bet if you dropped this thing just once, it would stop working - with a 90 day warranty, there isn't much room for error. If this were twenty bucks or less, I would have kept it; I suspect we'll see these for sale at deep discount very soon.
Still waiting for a decent portable HD radio receiver - this is definately NOT it.
What's great about it: Not much
What's not so great: Everything
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very small, quick way to charge with a USB port. Noticed very sensitive- better than my Accurian HD recvr. Good audio but no way to change settings. Wish it had a clock. One good plus is that you can save a HD-2, 3 as a memory channel. I like the unit!!! Thinking about buying another as a spare. I DO recommend this!! It is what it is- a portable FM radio only but DOES show RDS on non-HD stations-NICE! Super-cool display also! I would have given 5 Stars if you could change the battery and change audio settings. Still a very nice unit!
What's great about it: Small, good audio
What's not so great: no way to change audio (bass, treble). no user battery access
I would recommend this to a friend!

from Woodbury, NJ
I purchased two units with excitement to be able to have a better quality radio listening experience vs the old analog way being that I do not have a way to play Pandora or Iheart Radio from my ipod touch at work. So $46-$47 bucks was no issue for me. At home, I could receive all channels clearly, but at work not so much which is where I would need it most. The signals came in fuzzy, and sometimes did not come through at all. I would suggest all who purchase this product to make sure that you are able to get a decent signal for most of the channels you are listening to.
What's great about it: Prices is fairly reasonable
What's not so great: HD signals are not strong; normal radio stations are still fuzzy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Mine is used mostly around the house. Unbelievable how it can pick up distant stations. Havent used on the go. This is a great way to check out HD Radio. My experience with this HD unit is far better than I expected. Sorry that a few had problemswith their radio. Mine is great, I love HD radio and have been using mine every day.
What's great about it: affordable, great sound, portability
What's not so great: needs a USB port to charge
I would recommend this to a friend!

from Pittsburgh, PA
This has been the greatest product I have ever bought and used. I was amazed by the sound quality of the earbuds that came with it. It sounds great in the car through the MP3 input and receives the HD channels everywhere I drive. I use it now rather than the standard tuner. I am lucky that Pittsburgh, PA has a good selection of HD signals. The HD channels do not come in at work, but it receives the analog portion better than any other radio I have tried to use there. The battery lasts for at least 8 hours and charges quickly. I can even charge it in the car since it uses the same plug as my GPS units. I wish I had found this a long time ago. This should be in the stores, so that more people could discover it. I have shown it to every one at work and they all want one. I was so impressed that I bought one for my daughter and she likes it for the bus ride to and from school.
What's great about it: The best portable radio ever. It is easy to operate and has great reception even in the car. Battery lasts over 8 hrs.
What's not so great: Nothing bad yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I heard about this I thought it would be great to have an inexpensive HD radio you can put in a pocket and hear a multiple of channels. Even has an arm band holder. However I have found that the reception is off and on. Also seeing that it is from Insignia, It could have a bluetooth reicever.
What's great about it: Portability, easy to use and makes good on finding HD stations
What's not so great: Antenna reception is not very good. Skips like it's a bad cd. Wish it had bluetooth.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had the unit for just a few weeks and so far I've been pleased. Good sound quality on standard and HD FM. There are no audio adjustments, but they are not needed as long as you spring for some quality ear buds or headphones. The AM band would be handy as well. Reception is better than I expected especially on HD. Reception is very hard to predict so what works for me may not work at all where you live. I also would have liked a lanyard attachment. If you don't wear a shirt with a pocket, what do you do with it? I don't do arm bands... I can't really comment on durability and I haven't used it consistently enough to get a handle on the battery life yet - time will tell. I'm very kind to my toys so I expect this little guy will be around for a while.
All things considered, I recommend it without hesitation.
What's great about it: Sound quality and HD reception
What's not so great: Volume control location and lack of lanyard attachment point
I would recommend this to a friend!

from McHenry,IL
I use my radio for 1/2 hour every other day. It only lasts for two workouts. The velcro armband is strong, but to short. The reception is decent, and earphones don't stay in my ears. I found a set that wraps around my head that works better. I would look for one with a better battery if I were to buy another one.
What's great about it: Large choice of stations
What's not so great: Recharge battery every other day, velcro strap short
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
