Our take on the Sony ICF-P27 AM/FM Portable Radio

The Sony ICF-P27 is a small analog AM/FM pocket radio built for simple, dependable listening and emergency use. It runs on two AA batteries, has a red tuning lamp that lights when a station is dialed in, and a headphone jack that plays mono sound to both ears. It also receives Wide FM, which covers the wider Japanese FM band. Owners describe it as durable and long-lasting, often buying it again over the years; the main complaint is that it feels costly for a basic radio. Compared with digital-tuning pocket radios, it lacks presets and a clock, but its analog dial and battery life suit power outages and everyday carry.
