In these days of MP3 players and all singing and dancing DAB radios its easy to overlook simple yet effective technology, like the Sony SRF M95 FM radio, sure its only good old FM but it can deliver a lot of entertainment for your investment.

The Sony SRF M95 FM Radio wins friends due mainly to its compact size measuring just 39 x 83 x 20.4mm and weighing only 57 grams the SRF M95 fits easily into a shirt pocket without the user feeling its there, it is much lighter than even the smallest mobile phones. As such it lends itself perfectly to the daily commute or as a partner for workouts or jogging.

Controlling the SRF M95 is not as bad as you may think despite its fingertip controls, Sony have taken the jog dial from other products in its range and added them to the side of the FM radio, this allows for scanning of the FM and MW frequency range and also selection of the 20 preset stations. In fact when combined with the LCD screen you can access almost any feature from here but you may need the help of the manual as many features require the use of Multi function buttons.

Sound quality is excellent, sure its not DAB but Sony have made a tenacious FM radio that will hold onto signal long after lesser radios have given up, the bass reproduction is impressive with good weight even with the standard headphones and without the use of the mega bass system.

The single AAA battery will drive the SRF M85 for a minimum of 18hours and depending on use could last over 40 hours, that's a lot of entertainment for just £48.
