Review: Great little pocket radio - Great little radio for listening to either sport or music. Switched the included earbuds which unfortunately hurt my ears a little for a pair of decent Sony ones and found the sound to be brilliant. The screen is very clear and the radio is very easy to set up. It is just about the best pocket radio I have owned and I have had a few. There is no inbuilt rechargeable battery but just charging up your own rechargeable batteries and fitting them is no hardship and you don’t generally lose your preset stations when removing batteries and fitting new ones. At least I haven’t yet. It is a little chunky but appears well made and I am delighted with my purchase
Review: 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ DAB portable radio
*by M***M on 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.
