Sony Mini Speaker Comes With Stylish Outsides, Dated Innards

Sony's SRF-18 portable radio speaker setup features technology that would have been unremarkable two decades ago.

The tiny speaker system has an AM/FM radio, sound recording, and an auxiliary input for whatever peripheral device you've got (be it smartphone or 8-track player). The tuner looks straight out of the '70s, complete with yellow sliding bar and thumb-driven dial.

Sony's Jambox lookalike can sustain continuous play for several days on two AA batteries. If you plan on using it at your desk and don't want to burn through batteries, however, there's an AC adapter available for purchase (sold separately, of course).

At the very least, the SRF-18 comes with a decent paint job. The unit is sold in pink, white or black options, and is currently set for a Japan-only release in October. It will sell for 3,500 yen, or about $45.
