* Motorola Saber – a commercial portable radio that is a product series of Motorola USA, Inc., it was developed for the United States Armed Forces sometime around 1989. Despite the fact of it being originally marketed to the military, many law enforcement agencies and fire departments realized the benefits of the Saber, and Motorola soon had a much larger customer base for the radio than they expected.
* National Panasonic Model RE-784A – a vacuum tube AM/FM table radio from the post-war era (1960s) manufactured by National Panasonic (defunct, now Panasonic). The miniature tube-based circuitry follows the "All American Five" tube design, which allowed a more compact footprint of the radio.
* Nordmende – formerly named Norddeutsche Mende-Rundfunk GmbH, the name was subsequently changed to Nordmende. Subsequently the company became one of the prominent German manufacturers of radios, televisions, tape recorders and record players in the 1950s and 1960s.
* Olimpik – a series of Soviet produced superheterodyne portable radio receivers
* Panapet – a round novelty radio on a chain, first produced by Panasonic in the early 1970s to commemorate the World Expo in Osaka, Japan
* Panasonic Toot-a-Loop Radio – was a novelty radio made by Panasonic Japan in the early 1970s that was designed to be wrapped around the wrist.
* RCA – acted as the sales agent for a small line of Westinghouse and GE branded receivers and parts used by home constructors, originally for a limited market of amateur radio enthusiasts. By 1922, the rise of broadcasting had dramatically increased the demand for radio equipment by the general public, and this development was reflected in the title of RCA's June 1, 1922 catalog, "Radio Enters the Home". RCA began selling receivers under the "Radiola" name, marketing equipment produced by GE and Westinghouse under the production agreement that allocated a 60%–40% ratio in output between the two companies.
* Realistic – a brand produced by RadioShack, a division of Tandy Corporation, to market audio and video products for home use. The brand name was phased out in the mid 1990s and discontinued in 2000, then returned briefly in 2016. A very wide range of products was marketed under the Realistic brand. These included record players, stereo receivers, cassette decks, ham radios, musical synthesizers and a few quadraphonic receivers and shortwave radios.
* Regency TR-1 – the first commercially manufactured transistor radio, it was introduced in 1954. Despite mediocre performance, about 150,000 units were sold, due to the novelty of its small size and portability.
* SRF-39 – a portable AM/FM radio introduced in approximately 1992 by Sony. It uses a single AA battery, as its analog electronics draw very little current. It was one of the first radios to use the CXA1129 30-pin integrated circuit, which later was responsible for the SRF-39's sensitive and selective performance.
* Superette – introduced in 1931 by RCA, these radio receivers used the superheterodyne principle but were lower cost than earlier products, in an attempt to maintain sales during the onset of the Great Depression.
* Tivoli Audio PAL – a radio produced by Tivoli Audio. It was designed by Henry Kloss (1929–2002). Supporting both the FM and AM bands, it was designed as an outdoor, portable version of the earlier Tivoli Audio Model One.
* TR-55 – released in 1955, this was Sony's first transistor radio, and the first to be made in Japan. The use of transistors allowed the device to be much smaller than earlier vacuum tube radios.
* Utility Radio – also known as the Wartime Civilian Receiver, it was a valve domestic superheterodyne receiver manufactured in Great Britain during World War II starting in July 1944. It was designed by G.D. Reynolds of Murphy Radio. Both AC and battery-operated versions were made.
* Walkman – The original Walkman, released in 1979, was a portable cassette player. The Walkman brand was later extended to serve most of Sony's portable audio devices as well as related media devices, including radio receivers.
* Walkman Bean – shaped like a bean, it was available in three versions: the basic model with 512MB capacity (model NW-E205), the basic model with an inbuilt FM radio (model NW-E305), and a higher-capacity 1GB model (model NW-E307).

* A Realistic-brand Realistic 8 leather-cased transistor radio, circa 1959
* A Regency TR-1 transistor radio
* The Utility Radio

It represented a considerable advance over existing Larkspur radio system, and proved to be more flexible, reliable and far lighter, and also allowed the introduction of Single SideBand (SSB) operation and NarrowBand Frequency Modulation (NBFM) to forward area combat net radio for the first time.
* Larkspur radio system – was the retrospectively adopted name of a tactical radio system used by the British Army. Its development started in the late 1940s with the first equipment being issued in the mid-1950s.
