Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB radio, watch before you buy...

Like many other brands Blaupunkt did also move their production to China at one point and unfortunately their famous Bremen SQR 46 DAB build quality is not what you expect from this well known German brand… Few examples of what I mean:

1️⃣ Bass, treble and balance buttons have no end nor middle points so they can easily be overturned and therefore the position of dials does not reflect the actual setting and the markings on there are completely pointless and point at random direction
2️⃣ Volume button wobbles terribly (the same with brand new radios out of the box)
3️⃣ The radio has 3 sets of buttons for switching between the next and previous songs but no dedicated button for the Bluetooth mode and therefore if the radio was in FM mode you would need to press the SRC button 6 times!
4️⃣ No light sensor like all the BMW radios have so the display brightness won’t adjust itself automatically, also no speed sensitive volume adjustment.
5️⃣ The Bluetooth version is outdated and old 2.1 (CSR57E6). In today’s day an age at least 5.0 (in my radios) or above is used
6️⃣ The buttons, rotary knobs and in particular the “cassette” cover feels cheap and brittle – definitely something you would not expect from 400€ radio…
7️⃣ Lots of people have complained about the Bluetooth connectivity that it is unstable and in many cases eventually had stopped working completely.
8️⃣ It only has the European version of the digital radio (DAB) and according to several people it does not work that well either…
9️⃣ Googling will bring out many more reliability issues... Plenty of good and bad reviews also here: https://www.amazon.com/BLAUPUNKT-Brem...
