5.0 out of 5 stars
Superior sound quality, very stylish! Unnoticeable wearing armband.,
By Jay Riemenschneider (Roswell, GA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Remanufactured Philips Nike Digital Radio (Electronics)
I've used this countless times running and it is very easy to change volume, stations without as much as a glance. Extremely comfortable and the headphones that come with it stay perfectly positioned in your ear for maximum audio output due to the design. Plenty of power! Deep bass sound with excellent treble, Hi-fidelity for sure!
4.0 out of 5 stars

I disagree strongly with the review by R. Crawford. This radio is designed well for activity use. The 10 presets are easy to preset, and thereafter you need never look at the radio for on/off, volume, or station change. No hands operation is easy. You can feel the glass display front, and the headphone input at the top. On/off is on the left of the headphone input, the volume + and - buttons two raised bumps above the smooth easily felt display screen. The big bump below the display screen cycles you through the 10 presets. Once you're familiar with it, you can operate it one handed never taking it out of your pocket.
It is very compact. The rounded shape makes it comfortable in your pocket. I like the headset design, with a stiff band from ears to the back of your neck and then the cord down your back to either a front or back pocket, or the included armband. It keeps the cord out of the way allowing full use of arms without the wire getting in the way. I've had this radio since I bought it for a hospital stay almost 5 yrs ago, I've been recommending it to others since then. It's great for walking the dog, or biking. I love the simplicity of the design of this thing.

2.0 out of 5 stars
poor design, but looks good,
By Robert J. Crawford (Balmette Talloires, France) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Remanufactured Philips Nike Digital Radio (Electronics)
The earphones for this were really bad - the rubber cover kept falling off and I wd have to search for them at least once a day. Then they broke when I accidentally, though lightly, yanked the chord while exercising. So I had to buy new ones. For the price, they should not be so fragile or high maintenance.
It is also hard to use while exercising, in large part because the design is mediocre: it may look good, but you can't control it by feel - a capability you wd want to have when running or bike riding - because it is symmetrical and so you have to fish it out and look at what you are doing, the dreaded action that, yes, distracts and slows you down. So it fails at its primary purpose - sports use. Then there are the controls. I never did figure out how to program it, so to change the channel on the digital thingie, I have to press the button and wait for it to scroll thru to the station I want - very awkward and again time consuming. As such, it functions like an early digital watch, which you have experiment with, push some buttons longer than others, etc. Thus, frustrating! Finally, to be fair, I must say that the sound on this is fairly good. When I don't have to fiddle with it, it has provided many hours of listening pleasure as I ride my bike on long trips. I just wish it were without the many liabilities outlined above. But it looks cool. NOT recommended.
