This updated version of the original Mondo from Grace Digital has great features and great sound
I like the features on the Logitech much better than the Grace
Sounds great and has great features and their support team helped me get started and find stations I like
I like the features on the Logitech much better than the Grace
Most bothersome features not available to me are: a) can't get the USB player to play in the Shuffle Mode on the Mondo+ when the feature is available in the Mondo, and b) certain pause, rewind, and forward controls do not work.
Better than my last Grace digital Internet radio in ease of use and sound quality
Over all, I highly recommend the Grace Digital Mondo+ for a great internet radio
I had a Sungale internet radio that worked OK for about a
The interface makes this only marginal as an Internet radio; problems with their Portal:Second major category of shortcomings: The Grace Portal and the radio's Interface both fall far short of expectations
It's the best internet radio on the market for price and quality
I t would be much more convenient to be able to do this directly on the radio.
I want to point out that all those stations play perfectly well on the other two Grace radios (older versions) as well as on my computer, so there is nothing wrong with the streaming of the station itself
Thirdly, I can't find most of the stations we like, despite searching on the radio as well as on the web.
This is annoying to say the least, and because of this, the Mondo Plus remote is a problem for people with painful hand/finger conditions such as arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, repetitive strain injury, etc
This mondo+ is by far the best as to quality of sound, reliable reception across many different platforms, looks, ease of use and availability of a variety of different stations or sources
And at night, so as not to disturb others in the house even when using a speaker, I landed on using a smallish BT speaker bedside instead of the TV's full-on soundbar
Only critique; No real handle, :(Grace Digital Mondo+ Wireless Smart Speaker and Internet Radio with Wi-Fi + Bluetooth and 3.5" Color Display
Grace Digital Mondo+ Wireless Smart Speaker and Internet Radio with Wi-Fi + Bluetooth and 3.5" Color DisplayThis new radio is a improvement than the previous model in so many ways:
While Chromecast works well, it reduces Mondo+ to a somewhat smart wireless speaker.
My current passion is Old Time Radio and most of those broadcasts sound great with the radio's speakers, no difficulties at all
I've had the Grace Digital Mondo+ Internet Radio for over a month now.
The Mondo plays the alarm though the headphones - you will sleep right though your wake up time!
Defective from day 1.I had the original Mondo and it had problems also

I t would be much more convenient to be able to do this directly on the radio.
if I continued to stream it from multiple devices, I would need to pay for another yearly subscription, so I can't even stream Pandora to the mondoplus without paying a higher fee and still draining my phones battery.
I was looking for a device with apps built in so i could play streaming music, primarily Pandora without draining my phones battery.
If you want an internet Radio that is portable like this, but that actually works, I would recommend buying a Bluetooth speaker with good battery life and support for OX and USB, plus an old, or cheap android phone, and just connecting them
I t would be much more convenient to be able to do this directly on the radio.
Did a good bit of research and decided on the Mondo+ and it was everything I hoped it would be, wanted and needed; tons of free internet radio genres and channels to chose from, iheart radio stations, plus the pay music services all in a very easy to set up and use device
The square buttons for the preset stations wobble a bit and give me the impression they're snapped into place
Have had problems in the past with it losing connection or taking a long time to start and assumed it was related to a software update
Once it works it is a very nice radio, the real problem is getting connections to WIFI that stay connected.
Only rarely does it lose the WiFi connection, but it easy to reboot
I t would be much more convenient to be able to do this directly on the radio.
Main issue I have seen is when playing a book on Kindle via Bluetooth, after pause the Mondo will lose connection, and can be difficult to restore, occasionally requiring a reboot
