    5.0 out of 5 stars A tiny radio with a giant performance

    D. · 22 July 2024

    This radio is much smaller than I expected. It easily fits into the top pocket of a shirt or jacket. Despite my bad eyesight I was able to set it up with all the presets within about twenty minutes. The controls and settings are fairly intuitive. I live near Worcester UK, and have good reception although I did have to try several times to get BBC4 and BBC4 Extra. All my others, Times radio, GB news, classic FM, were quick and easy to find.The earphones work okay and are good quality, but the bits which plug into your ears are hard and rigid and I prefer softer ones. I found that my own inexpensive set works fine and the lead seems to operate well as an aerial.The presets are good and positive and find their station quickly, although there is a slight delay. For its size this radio seems quite expensive but is worth every penny to me, because I listen to radio all through the night. If you want a compact little radio with accurate presets and good reception and with a good quality build, I recommend this this one strongly.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best in class, and for some time now

    a. · 23 January 2020

    I bought one of these about four years ago and it has had heavy, near daily, use since then as I go backwards and forwards by train and I have found it excellent. The clearest sound, the best sensitivity and the easiest use of any personal DAB. The only fault probably is that it is not rechargeable and relies on AA batteries but on the whole I have not found even this much of a drawback. You can use rechargeable batteries and an external charge if you want and I have found too that sometimes you do not want to have the hassle of charging something up when you can just pop into the nearest shop and pick up a packet of batteries to keep you listening. It has a sleep function and preset station buttons. Those are always welcome, and far nicer to use than toggling through a menu of presets. Well made too. I bought a cover for mine and was surprised to see when I had it out of this recently how nice the build quality of the case is. Trump, Brexit, all the big news stories and talk radio shows, plays, features, music and much more; this little radio has made so many hours fly by when travelling. Am lost without it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars DAB portable radio

    M.M.C. · 21 May 2024

    I bought this radio for my husband to listen to Radio 5 live. I had to return a previous model because it could not find a signal for Radio 5 live. But this one is sturdy, reliable, easy to use, easy to see, easily portable (fits in the pocket) It does draw much power from the batteries - I don't think he has changed the batteries since he started using it. Thr ear phones were disappointing and my husband found it hard to get used to them, they were of a poor quality. He has replaced these with another pair of earphones. Besides the earphones, the product is good and serves its purpose.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Nice size, Good sound. What more do you want?

    I bought this to replace a faulty Aves Air that I had to return.This was one of the few pocket DAB radios that had DAB+. Another plus point is that it doesn't take a silly battery pack that costs £10 and means waiting hours for it to recharge.First impressions.Nice and compact. I like the presets and on/off buttons on the top. Volume control on the left side and the 'jog' switch on the right.The jog control takes a little getting used to. To scroll through stations, either rotate up or down. To change screen options (like scrolling text) press inwards until the desired text is displayed. To access menus (including moving to/from FM to DAB), press and hold inwards.I'm not sure how long this control would last out, if you were too heavy handed with it.I had it out of the plastic blister (be careful opening it!) and working in 30 seconds, after inserting 2 AA's in the battery compartment and plugging in my usual earphones.Switch it on and it starts scanning DAB.I find the supplied earphones a bit uncomfortable.5 presets on each on DAB and FM. Adequate for me, as I only listen to a few stations.To store presets, tune to the station you want, then press and hold down the appropriate preset.Sound is clear and crisp. No equaliser on it, but a DRC control is one of the menu options. It only has an effect on some stations.2 things would make this perfect for me.1) I find the display keeps defaulting to the rolling text, which I find annoying. If you change it to text that is 'still', it doesn't seem to 'remember' that choice. Doesn't matter whether this is from DAB to FM or vice-versa and also when you switch it on to start with, it's the same.According to Roberts, this cannot be changed.I did ask them to, pointing out that other radios (including their own), will 'remember' if you change it.2) A socket for a mains adaptor (optional) to recharge batteries 'in-situ', rather than having to remove and replace them each time.All in all, a nice radio and worthy of consideration.As mentioned above (and by other reviewers), using rechargable batteries is highly recommended.

    Excellent DAB+ radio. Good size to fit in a coat pocket. Controls are easy to use. The sound is very good. I like the preset buttons as they are very accessible. Volume control is smooth. I bought an iGatgitz case from the actual makers and would recommend it to protect the radio. It is a robust case so should do the job well.Highly recommended.

    Very happy with my purchase. Ordered yesterday, arrived today. Easy to preset to your favourite channels. Lock feature is very handy. Clear sound. Nice and light; fits into pocket. Headphones seem ok, but time will tell how robust they are.

    Nachtrag: Ich vergebe einen sechsten Stern für die Batterieleistung mit den 2 AAA-Batterien. Seit dem Kauf 3x ca. 7h in Dauernutzung, von den 3 Balken immer noch 2 vorhanden. Gerät ist top

    Ottimo prodotto.

    D.B. · 25 July 2018

    La prima impressione, mi è appena arrivata, ha un'ottima ricezione e un buon audio, usando cuffie di qualità. Ma anche quelle in dotazione, non sono male. Devo testare la durata delle batterie e la robustezza della radio. I materiali mi sembrano più che buoni, come, le finiture.

    Ottimo prodotto

    p.4. · 11 August 2022

    E' il secondo articolo che acquisto di questo modello e di questa marca. Rispetto al precedente, questo e' meno intuitivo da usare, a causa delle maggiori possibilita' offerte. Qualita' di alto livello. Da verificare la durata delle batterie

    buona radio con cuffie

    p. · 4 November 2022

    ben fatta ottima ricezione sia in fm che in dab/dab+ unica nota negativa il consumo delle pile AA, con 2 ore di ascolto giornaliere durano circa giorni 11/12, da attribuire a mio avviso allo schermo perennemente illuminato, anche se al minimo, non disenseribile dalle impostazioni, è consigliabile usarla con valide pile AA ricaricabile di buona fattura tutto sommato se cara è un buon prodotto

    Ottima radio Dab

    D.M. · 1 October 2017

    Ottima radio, almeno dove la ricezione è buona. Io abito a Torino e qui é buona. L'uso è pratico e facile anche senza la lettura del manuale. Sono tre settimane che la utilizzo almeno una mezz'oretta al giorno e le batterie non sono ancora da cambiare. L'unico difetto è la grandezza, ma con due pile AA non posso chiudere di più.
