Looking for a small MP3 player with FM radio. Radio probably being the primary usage. Not too bothered about storage size, something with a small form factor would be more important, SD card expansion maybe, but the radio is the main thing.

Sansa Clip+ seems to be the standard recommendation here but I've seen a few comments that the radio isn't great.

That may be on an older version, just wondering how people have found the radio?
Or if there's any other recommendations?

You could buy a Lumia 430/435 and get a cheap phone in the process

On sale at the moment. Worth a punt at that price. Radio is never going to be amazing but should.be adequate. Spotted on their current email advert.

I bought an 8GB version of the sanheshun which is fantastic value, FM radio is good-ish, battery lasts over 36 hours. I trend to play whole albums [folders] rather then play lists. I then bought a 16GB version which wasn't as well made. Software is crude, QC is all over the place so I'd buy 2 !-)
