Review: outstanding !! - i wanted a medium-sized DAB radio .and i decided to purchase this radio .despit its low price [remember when DAB radios came out they cost hundreds ] now for less than £40 you get a device that you can use as a portable speaker it sounds excellent too because it has a subwoofer and you can hear it [pitty there is no control for the subwoofer ] but you can adjust the bass and treble to get a good sound [you're not just limited to the usual jazz/rock/ rubish that you get with some devices around this price ..by the way, you are offered various preset sounds but i advise you to adjust using the bass and treble as you will get a better sound than just using the preset sounds [they never sound good on any device i always use bass and treble on my audio devices .the radio is well made even the remote control is well laid out and easy to read .its easy to programme and it looks nice too .i bought this for my 80-year-old mum and she loves it .i would buy one for myself if i was looking to replace my DAB radio .this radio also has a rechargeble power supply making it an even better purchase .highly recomended .....
Review: Good little radio lacking Base - Good compact size, colour nice although I did think facia would be all chrome but it was white with chrome knobs. I went for black wood effect to go with my kitchen. Very easy to set up. Not done an extensive test of battery life yet, when I've left unplugged (fully charged) 1 bar out of 3 have been used overnight on the battery 🔋 indicator. I can get more channels than I need compared to my old radio, I can now get Gold (🇬🇧 london), I live in Hertfordshire. Preset stations are easy to store, I didn't even need manual to help work through what radio functions do. In settings there are different sound modes (pop, classic, normal ect) BUT the base is not enough for my liking and it appears I can't give any more depth to sound. If you are in your 20's or even 30s this radio probably might not be for you. I'm 57 I do like a bit of boom! Anyway it's sufficient for my needs. I don't have the aerial fully up because my kitchen cabinets prevent that as there isn't as all round "pivot" but you still get a crystal clear sound. Unit is light and stations are displayed with what song is playing, time and date, love that feature as my old one didn't. You can dim display or off mode. I think this radio is great also coz I can link to my phone through Bluetooth but sound is lower than if I just had radio. I would rate this as a medium range quality but for price it's really good. Perhaps manufacture could introduce more base, I would be really happy then. Hope this helps you decide. UPDATE.. I forgot to switch on to charge, leaving power to drain but system goes into standby type mode. If you hold power button for a few moments it comes back on. At least I know how long battery lasts. I guess if you want to unplug and say have while your gardening eg on allotment I'd say 2-3 hours run time without electrickery.. 🤭😆 ANOTHER UPDATE: I've hooked Bluetooth to my PC and films sound better through radio. PC speakers are boosted with this little radio.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the clock big enough to easily read from a few metres away?**
A: Well, it probably depends on your eyesight!  The time is displayed in pretty big numbers and can be read easily from 3m or more back.  Underneath the time the station info is much smaller and you'd probably need to be no more than 2.5m.  As an aside, the remote works from at least 3m away.  Hope this helps.  It really is an excellent radio for the money.

**Q: Someone said the volume is too high & disturbs their partner, but hopefully it will go low enough so someone in the next room isn't disturbed?**
A: I am listening to my radio as I type this. On the lowest setting the programme (Radio 4 dialogue) is barely audible over the sound of typing.

I often listen to the radio in the middle of the night in the bathroom without anyone hearing me during the night.

**Q: Is there a Bluetooth function?**
A: Yep Bluetooth works for me

**Q: How long does it take to charge?  Is there a battery indicator showing when a charge needed? Is this an energy efficient radio?**
A: charging from empty takes a few hours, it lasts approx 6 hours on battery only. There is a battery level indicator in the top right of the display panel, similar to that on a mobile phone. The battery also charges while plugged into the mains while you have radio on.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid and Substantial Feel
*by M***S on 31 March 2024*

Aesthetically pleasing and a solid substantial feel. Volume achieves decent levels before distortion (all amps distort at their upper end) and the size of the unit and speaker cone provides a sound with decent enough bottom end without it being described as hi-fi. It suffices for a 5 metre by 4 metre soft furnished room. The (sort of) tower design reduces surface footprint but obviously the absolutely best thing about the design for a perpetual boy is that it's face looks like a 1950's robot. It's worth buying for that aspect alone to be honest. Two minor negatives:- 1. It didn't auto change the time today at the start of BST. An easy manual change though. 2. Bluetooth is as receiving paired device hence I was unable to pair with my sound bar which behaves in a similar manner. Cabling is an option to achieve that but that's not something I want to do.
