So how did they get a complete satellite receiver into a device that measures 3.7 x 2.2 x 0.6 inches? By using an advanced satellite/terrestrial internal antenna that allows the device to receive signals from anywhere. The device is light, too, weighing in at just 4.5 ounces. The unit's full-color, 180 x 180 TFT display, as well as a user-friendly interface, make it easy to save and delete content. In addition to making it easy to find the music you want to listen to quickly, the interface lets you build your own playlists right on the device that consist of XM radio content and your own digital music. Another cool feature is the Helix's built-in memory buffer, which allows you to save an entire XM radio song even if you decide to save it in the middle of the song. The Helix's internal memory supports up to 50 hours of saved content. Less

Terrific concept

9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great value for the price. Very good to excellent sound quality. Very convenient.
Cons Poor reception makes it useless as a portable radio while walking around the city.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had the Samsung Helix for three weeks. Now I understand why so many people are walking around in their own world with a headset on. My wife recently bought a Nano and, once I tried it, I was hooked. The Helix is better than the Nano, in my view, because it can record off the air while the... Read full review »

Recommended it? No

This product was intentionally downgraded (as was the Pionner Inno), so that the FM transmitter will only work if you buy the car kit. Now you can't take it to your office and use with your boombox, etc. Perhaps they think they will sell more hardware this way.

However, in the days of... Read full review »

Nice Tuner for a Great Price

8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros A great performing unit with superb functions for real value.
Cons Difficult to use remote, very high audio output levels and exaggerated midrange.
Recommended it? Yes

I have used the HDT-1 for two weeks. The first impression was a very forward midrange and a very high output level on the audio cables. I have two professional tuners, Yamaha TX-950 and Kenwood KT-9900, from which the following camparisons are made.

First, for the price this is an... Read full review »

Great Tuner, opens a new world to you via FM radio

bychannel9 Mar 6, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Stylish tuner with excellent tuning abilities.
Cons Darn clock loses time.
Recommended it? Yes

The Sangean HDT-1 uses the new hybrid digital system developed by ibiquity. It is the first affordable tuner on the market. (199.99) Sangean has outdone itself in this initial offering. The tuner and the HD system perform far better than anyone expected, and is making a lot of people eat their... Read full review »
