"feels a little lightweight and on the ‘plasticky’ side"
"The carry handle also feels a little flimsy"
"The control array...also looks a little fussy"
" The aerial...also feels a little on the vulnerable side"
"Only 15 station presets are available"
"has a power consumption level - which damages the Stream's portability credentials"
"The user experience isn't an altogether a happy one"
"just feels a little more complex than it could have been"
"the text is quite block-like"
"once text starts to scroll...it becomes very difficult to read"
"reception isn't the best we have seen"
"sound quality is also a little disappointing"
"there's a lag time between turning the dial and the screen reacting"
"the price is a little on the heavy side"
So how in the name of Gates does it get a score of 75%?
Seriously, this is getting rediculous. Does a product actually have to decapitate the operator in order to score less than 60% or are you guys just worried that you won't get sent lots of free stuff if you give a product a bad score?
