 Hello everyone, this is Ahmed Dan of AhmedDan.com. Today I will have another episode of unboxing video and I'll be presenting the Prunus J401 radio which I have it right here. So recently I got into radio and I just did my first radio review a few days ago and that was the Prunus J166, a tiny pocket radio which is right here and you'll find this review in the description box below and after this I purchased this one Prunus J401 so this is a new radio it's just released recently if I'm not mistaken and I got into radio very recently I haven't had a radio for decades so this is actually my second radio and the other one J166 is my first radio so what attracted me about buying this radio is the price point so this is really inexpensive radio and stating that the features they're giving you and the price of the radio it just doesn't make sense so I just wanted to buy and try it out that you know if this is really a good one or not so today we're going to unbox this radio and I'm going to go over a few features and then you know I'm going to test it out for a few days or weeks and then later on I'll just do the second part of the review which will attach it to this part so the first thing let's talk about the price you can find this for $20 to $30 Canadian so what happened when I first saw this radio it was $40 Canadian and then later on the price dropped to $20 with a coupon so it's just like you know hard to believe that you know it can be that cheap I have a feeling that they're just kind of like you know doing a promotional price because this radio just came out and they want people to buy so later on they may you know increase the price so let's look at some of the features so this is actually a shortwave band radio so it has MFM and shortwave and it can record it can play MP3 and it can even show lyric from the radio which is I find it very hard to believe because of you know the price and some other features we have here is that the model number is J401 and it can support memory card TF up to 32 gig then the screen resolution is 128 by 64 which is not bad then the band you're getting is AM 520 to 1710 FM 87 to 108 MHz and shortwave 4.75 to 21.85 MHz then the number of a station you can store you can actually you know store memory so it looks like M60 FM 80 and shortwave 100 the power it takes is 2 watt and then it actually runs on a lithium battery which is 200 mAh that's another good thing about this radio so you don't have to keep buying batteries and dimension is really like in a small radio and you can see that you know the weight is only 21 gram which is very little and lightweight and some other features they are there in mention on the cover is that of this radio actually has a telescopic antenna and then it can you know it has earphone jack a sleep timer and then it has a voice recorder it has AUX or AUX jack you can connect it to another speaker I can it has a lock button and DC 5 volt charging preset delete stations and voice recorder so it's packed with features let's you know start the unboxing first and then we'll take a look at the radio okay so the box is all empty so here's the radio and here's what we what it comes with the radio so let's take a look at it so the first thing is the lithium-ion battery and this is 1200 mAh and these days actually you shouldn't have to buy a radio which it doesn't come with a lithium-ion rechargeable battery because there's no point like you know keep buying battery after battery and then if you take a look at it here this is 1200 mAh 3.7 volt so I'm going to just you know set it aside here and then we have a and AUX jack so this is to connect your radio to an outside speaker so this is a nice addition that you know they provided this jack and then we have here USB jack which is a micro USB this is not USB-C and you know I didn't expect USB-C from inexpensive radio like this and then we have something like a scratch card so it could be like you know a bonus or something so I'll just you know set it aside here and then we have even a manual and looks like you know the detail out everything about the radio so the manual come in handy later on so I'll just you know set it aside and these are just like you know packaging or fill up for the box so I'll just put everything here and then let's look at the actual radio so I'll just take it out okay so here is what we have something I mentioned forgot to mention is that actually this is a stereo radio there are two speakers and that's another surprising fact that you know for any inexpensive radio is just even giving you stereo capability so the radio is incredibly light when you it like kind of fits your pump so if you take a look at it it's like really small it very same like even a smaller than a cell phone as you can see it's smaller than a cell phone and it's a very nice looking radio you can tell and then here we have you know some of the preset stations or set stations you can set up and then here the like you know buttons for the band lock button so these I do not know yet how they work so I'm going to just like you know go through everything here and then here we have the ox jack input mic output or ox output tf card or memory card and then on this side we have let's take a look here so you can see that you know there's a volume and there is the memory plus memory minus and DC 5 volt in and on the back there's even a kind of recliner I think you can just to you know keep your radio this way if you need to and then we have the battery chamber which is going to be right here the lithium and battery and then looks like that's it about the radio but definitely like you know there's no way you're not going to like the looks of the radio it looks very good looking radio and it doesn't even look a cheap radio so I'm going to do go through the radio I'm going to test it out for a few days or weeks and then I'm going to attach the second part of the review with this review and then I'll provide more my insights on you know how it works and how the stations are whether you know it catches good stations or how is the sound quality and everything hello everyone I have had a few weeks to test this video and today I'd just like to go over some of the you know some more details so to turn on and off you just need to press this button and it's going to you know start playing a channel or whichever you last you know I played so if you'd like to save a channel so you have to just you know have channel here so for example let's say 540 I'm not even sure if that's a channel but let's say there's something there 540 a.m. and then if you'd like to save it then you press you know the 5 preset you hold it and you can see that channel button is blinking then you just put 3 and then press here and then you're going to get this message asking if you want to save then press this again and now this channel is under channel 3 you know quick button so you can save 1 2 0 and that's how you save it so let's say if you'd like to scan all the channels in your area so all you have to do you just press this button and it's going to keep looking for all the channels which are available and then it's going to save them and then once the cycle is complete then you have all those channels and if you want to stop that then you can just you know press it for a little bit then it should stop it so sometimes this button doesn't work and sometimes it works but you know it looks like right now like I'm not able to stop anything it just keeps like you know going on but now you can see that it stopped so it's kind of a little bit glitchy so you can scan for channel like you know going manually so let's say you know the channel let's say 7 4 0 so if you just enter it directly then it's going to play that channel if you just press 1 again then it's going to just go to your presaved which you pressed under which you saved before and if you'd like to scan manually then you can just press up and down and then you know it just goes up 10 every time but if you just want to go to the next available without pressing one by one then you can just hold it for a few seconds and then it's just going to go to the channel it saved when you did the scanning so let me just lower the volume little bit okay so this radio has shortwave band so let's say if I press shortwave and you can see that it has shortwave it has shortwave 1 2 I believe 9 but the problem with this radio that you know the shortwave band simply doesn't work so I tried many times trying to tune into a shortwave but all you hear is kind of like you know noise and it feels like there's a station but you know it's not able to tune into that station and I even spend about $10 buying a wired antenna and I touch it to this radio but it's still the shortwave signal doesn't work so I think that's the weak point of this radio that you know the shortwave doesn't work so if you're buying a radio just to listen to shortwave or interested in shortwave then definitely this is not the radio because it's not gonna work but you know in terms of M and FM it just works fine so you know there's no problem with that and another thing I'd like to mention that it's battery life is really good you can see that it still it has like in a 50 75% battery and I don't actually remember when I charged it last time so in terms of battery it's really good so that's there's no complaint there so overall you know I'm not I'm happy with the product I'm not too happy either because you know the shortwave doesn't work I wanted to see what kind of stations I get on shortwave so that way you know this shortwave is not working everything else is working that's very fine and you know I'm okay with that so that's all about the Prunas J401 thank you for watching this video there'll be more videos coming up so I'll see you shortly thank you
