Sony ICF-EX5MK2 Extra Sensitivity Portable Radio
[ICF-EX5MK2]
$229.99
by James TSE Date Added: Friday 19 December, 2008
A radio with ordinary outlook but good performance. A portable radio for home use. Simple to use and suitable for elderly people who do not familiar with control on digital functions (I bought it for my old parents). Most important, of course, is that it has clear reception and sound quality. It is not supposed to have hi-fi sound quality, but it made you listen to the station with a natural feel.
I used it in Hong Kong (Sham Shui Po) mainly for FM reception. Its high sensitivity can effectively prevent the inference among different stations. So it is easy enough to tune to a position for the station I want until inference being minimized.
Battery included and you can use it soon after receiving the product. Although it seems relatively expensive comparing to other brands of radio, I believe it worth such value as it is the ultimate radio of similar types.
It should be noted it did not have a bar for hand-carry but using a belt instead. You may not be familiar of using the belt that is included but optional. If you carry it without the belt, you could be care enough not letting it slip from your hand. I do not quite understand why it did not use (or add) a bar design for hand-carry.
It is perfect as a convenient and simple radio. But do not expect it for hi-fi quality.
