The Anomalo [FM radio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/symphony-ai) is comprised of a [bright range of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-color-block-400) and quirky shape which looks like it came straight out of a toy box. The main feature of the speaker is the notable antenna which stretches upwards and refuses to blend into the background. The rest of the Anomalo features a range of limbs, which including chunky and candy-tonal branches going outward. Each one has a different function, which allow the radio to look like a compact robot. All of the controls are unique to its own as the roulette-style wheel one of side zips through stations and the bright red tonal barrel turns up the volume.
