XHDATA D-109 AM/FM/SW/LW Portable Radio USB/TF/Stereo MP3 Player Bluetooth Speaker Power by AC/Battery with Music pl Alarm Radio

This radio seems to have some usability improvements which xhdata learnt from the past radios.The Audio has vastly improved on the earphones, providing balanced sound, not bass or treble heavy. It has smooth analog volume control and no hissing. The built in speaker is slightly powerful and has a bit of bass making the sound warm for easy listening. FM sounds really nice.Reception is very impressive. It is quite close to the D 808 but can also compete with the Tecsun 9700DX. MW and SW are excellent. In FM sometimes there is overload with external antenna for some channels - here the D 808 handles better and the Tecsun 9700DX has DX/local switch and handles reception slightly better. FM is stereo with possibility to force to mono. Overall D 109 is quite good in FM and differences are subtle.I use external telescopic antenna for FM and SW as my apartment has concrete walls and the whip antenna only works near the window for SW. This happens for all radios at my place.Full SW coverage from 1711 to 29999 KHz. This is the cheapest radio that has full SW coverage I think.Firmware: This has the VF/VM tuning, so we can scroll through memory presets easily. The D 808 memory system is a mess compared to this. Tecsun PL310et is the best in terms of memory, configurations and tuning (etm).Display shows the duration of charging once plugged in. Neat little feature and I know now exactly how long it will take to full charge.Signal strength is the default display in radio mode which is more appropriate than showing temp. Another improvement over D808. Tecsun is the best here - displays what the user chose last time.A small issue is that sleep button has been separated from power button. So sleep timer has to be set manually every time.Memory has 100 presets for each band but 300 for SW. Excellent. I get about 120 channels(some images of course ) in an evening scan, so this is useful.The temperature displayed is grossly incorrect and I had replaced this radio once for this but second unit has same issue. So I decided to keep this second one.Comes with standard rechargeable battery and lasts a long time on a charge. USB C.LCD display is better than the D 808, blacks are darker. LCD of the Tecsun PL310ET is the best by far.Overall a very satisfying experience with the radio at a low price point and I have nothing more to ask for, if xhdata fixes the temperature issue in upcoming versions of this radio that would be great.For listening to broadcast bands this is the best radio in the market unless you need SSB and AIR band.

It is worthwhile purchasing this item. Good reception, good sound quality, and Bluetooth/SD card compatibility. The sound is a little low; it could be a little better. I compared it to the Pagaria R917 and the XHDATA D-808. XHDATA D-109 was significantly better in SW/MW whereas XHDATA D-808 was only marginally superior in FM Band. Pagaria R917 had a respectable 60-20 margin. After one more observation Pagaria R-917 and XHDATA D-109 are far better from D-808 in MW band.

This is my first serious radio so what I write might not be accurate.I got this radio for under 4k which is a steal. Other radios from Tecsun which doesn't support Bluetooth or MP3 still costs a lot more.The sound is amazing( for a radio of this size). It has some Bass and treble and generally sounds pleasant. With Bluetooth function, you can effectively turn this to a Bluetooth speaker.Charges a removable rechargeable battery with USB-C cable which is real nice as we don't have to replace or buy rechargeable batteries.FM, SW, MW reception is good and I have no complaints, with a long wire antenna, the reception becomes even stronger for weaker stations.Size is compact and have nice heft and it feels nice to look and hold.I cannot think of any cons relating to its radio capabilities. But for Bluetooth, showing what's playing on the screen (track name) would've been nice. It's not possible because it's not a full featured LCD but like the ones that's found on kids watches and calculators.For the price, under 4k when I bought it, this is an amazing buy.

I am located in district HQ and near by Bangalore None of the FM/SW/MW stations are connected Where as my car get connected to bunch of FM stationsDisappointedWhy did you pick this product vs others?:Looking elegant

This radio is truly amazing. I read about its features, including the Skylabs Si4734/35 fully integrated chipset, which provides excellent quality for all bands. It’s fully loaded with great features for radio lovers, including Bluetooth and Memory card support, making it even more versatile for future use.The customer support is excellent, and the radio supports both digital and analog tuning, making it a beautiful device. The auto-scan and memory functions are impressive, and I haven’t found any other radio that beats this device.Also it’s support FM stereo if you are connected with Headphone. I didn’t check if it supports RDS.As for my service experience, I bought this radio and noticed a tightness on the tuning knob. When I reached out to customer service, they offered to exchange or refund the full price without any hassle. It’s truly an exceptional product.Unfortunately, I had to return this one as I didn’t have the option to exchange it due to Amazon’s policy. But they are happy to return the product.However, I’m planning to buy another one soon.
