Igear Retro Radio
A classic retro-looking radio with modern functions
Domestic gadget-maker igear has launched a classic vintage-looking audio accessory – igear Retro Radio in India. This beautiful audio device will bring back old memories of the 60s while still donning the features of today’s modern technology. It features fully functional AM, FM and SW bands and is complete with an analog control (a dial knob) for tuning into stations and adjusting volumes like the one on the original radio from the 60s. It also dons modern technology so that you can connect it to your laptop, tablet or smartphone, or use it as a standalone music player. It uses Bluetooth v5.0 connectivity for pairing, and can also connect to other audio devices using the Aux port. You can also enjoy your favourite playlist via the TF/SD card slot or USB port.
The igear Retro Radio features an 8W speaker and is backed by a 900mah rechargeable battery. Other features include an in-built emergency flashlight that one can use during unexpected power cuts, or outdoors. It runs on a standard 220V mains power line that charges the in-built battery. In places where power is not available, you can also use 2 x UM-1 size cells in the rear compartment to power the radio. The Retro Radio can also be charged via a standard smartphone charger with a micro USB jack. Bundled along with the radio are a 220V power cord and a carrying belt that completes the entire classic retro-feel of owning a vintage radio set. It is available on Amazon and Flipkart.n
