Sansui F50 vs F51: Which One Should You Buy?
The F50 and F51 share the same radio engine — full FM/MW/SW reception, the same 53cm rotating antenna, and the same 3x 18650 replaceable battery setup. The difference is screen size and a couple of convenience features:
| Feature | Sansui F50 | Sansui F51 |
| Display | 4.3-inch LED | 7-inch IPS |
| Bluetooth | 5.0 | 5.3 |
| TF card slots | 1 | 2 (dual) |
| AUX input | No | Yes |
| Carry design | Hanging rope | Leather handle |
| Radio bands | FM / MW / AM / SW | FM / MW / AM / SW |
| Battery | 3x 18650, 1200mAh each | 3x 18650, 1200mAh each |
| Best for | Compact size, easiest to carry daily | Bigger screen for video/e-books, dual storage |
If you mainly want a real radio tuner with occasional video playback, the F50’s smaller footprint is easier to live with. If video and e-book reading on the bigger screen matter more to you than pocketability, the F51 is the better pick.
What You’re Actually Getting
A real tuner, not a Bluetooth-only speaker. Most “portable radios” sold today are Bluetooth speakers with an FM chip bolted on. The F50 has genuine full-band reception across FM, medium wave, and shortwave, with a proper rotating antenna — the kind of build you’d want for actual radio listening, not just background music.
Replaceable batteries. Rather than a sealed internal pack that degrades and can’t be swapped, the F50 uses three standard 18650 lithium cells you can replace yourself when they wear out. It also runs directly off Type-C power with no batteries installed at all, so it works as a plugged-in unit if you prefer.
Genuine shortwave range. Covering 2.3–22MHz on shortwave puts a real range of international broadcasts within reach, alongside standard FM and AM/medium wave.
Good to Know Before You Buy
A few honest, practical notes based on how this unit actually behaves in use, not just the marketing spec sheet:
- Menu language: Units commonly ship with the on-screen menu set to Chinese by default. Switching to English is done through the settings menu — if yours arrives in Chinese, this is normal and correctable, not a fault.
- Video playback: For local video files played via USB or TF card, MP4 files encoded in H.264 are the most reliable format. Other formats may not play correctly.
- Play/Pause doubles as mute: The Play/Pause button works across both radio and video/Bluetooth modes, which is handy for quickly muting playback without digging through menus.
- FM reception: As with most compact radios in this class, some background hiss on FM is normal, particularly on weaker stations — extending the antenna fully improves this.
Who This Is For
The F50 suits people who want an actual radio experience — commuters, rural or upcountry buyers who rely on FM/shortwave where data is limited, older users who prefer physical tuning over an app, and anyone who wants a device that still works when there’s no Bluetooth source nearby.
If you only ever plan to stream from your phone and never touch the radio tuner, a dedicated Bluetooth speaker may serve you better. If you want an actual radio with modern playback options built in, this is built for exactly that.

FAQ
Does the Sansui F50 work without Bluetooth?

What batteries does it use?
Three 18650 lithium-ion cells (1,200mAh each), which are detachable and replaceable. It can also run directly on USB-C power without batteries installed.
Can I play videos on the screen?
Yes, via USB drive or TF card, with MP4/H.264 giving the most reliable playback.
Does it pick up shortwave stations?
Yes — shortwave coverage runs from 2.3MHz to 22MHz, in addition to standard FM and AM/medium wave.
