Ocean Digital Portable Internet Wi-Fi/FM Radio with Bluetooth Speaker - Rechargeable Battery, Compact Design for Kitchen, Garden, Outdoor & Travel (WR26) | Perfect for Cooking, Gardening, Camping & Relaxing

I like this radio, flaws and all. Purely for value I believe it deserves 5 stars.Edit: after using the next model up, WR-23D, I'm now advising anyone planning to buy the model you see here to check that one out first. It's not that much more expensive, and adds a larger and MUCH easier to read display, with color The larger display makes searches easier, adds a rotary volume control, and gives more operational information at-a-glance, has a nicer-to-hold rounded shape, and a front-firing speaker. In my humble opinion, you'll thank yourself for comparing these two models before making your purchase. But both can bring a tremendous range of streaming content (see below).This digital radio is superior to fiddling with various apps in a couple of ways:The most important is it uses Skytune. At this time (May 2021) Skytune is the impressive "killer app", in my view. The search capability in the radio coupled with Skytune's very large database really impresses me. I have 115 "favorites" already (see below for a highlight list) covering a broad range.The ease of accessing all that content relative to other apps and programs I've tried as an alternative is what makes a dedicated radio something of a game-changer.As a physical radio, it reminds you that humans have been mass-producing radios for nearly a century now, and over the years the interface was perfected to the point that a team of software engineers are VERY unlikely to create a better interface or more intuitive interface than a radio interface for streaming audio, so a dedicated, physical radio makes a fair bit of sense operationally.What's missing from this radio is DIALS. The WR-23D adds a volume dial, which is much better than context-sensitive volume buttons that are only volume controls when they're not something else.To make this a perfect product it would add a "tuning" dial to flip through stations without navigating menus, and a volume knob, even if it has to share the same knob. But all this is secondary to how convenient it is to have a dedicated device you can use to easily bring up content like:BBC Radio 4 ExtraScience360 RadioSciFi Old Time RadioAmerica's OTR Radio (multiple channels)Audio NoirABC News (Australia)ABC Radio AustraliaABC Triple JKEXP 90.3 FMWFMU 256KRadio New Zealand InternationalDW Radio EnglishRPR1 (various music channels starting with RPR1)BBC Radio 4LWAtomic ComedyNPR Program StreamNRK KlassiskAntenne Bayern (Multiple channels including "decades" channels)Zoomer Radio CFZM TorontoDKFM SHoegaze RadioKROQ FM (US Listeners Only)Radio Free Dishnuts (a great group of mostly visually impaired folks who do projects and shows)Even US cable news channels (but you can do better)So, great search capabilities and tons to listen to.Minor minus is it's not all it could be user-interface-wise. Halfway there as in my view the strength of a radio interface is a tuning DIAL. A dial beats navigating menus every time.I hope Ocean Digital will produce a portable radio with a tuning dial someday.
