NEAL, NOTTINGHAM

+ Easy to use and a very affordable product from the DAB market leader.

- Always check DAB coverage in yur area before purchase. The software on the unit I purchased contained known bugs and had to be updated via the units USB port. A relatively simple task for technies but not ideal for everybody.

Gary, Orpington, Kent

+ Being rechargeable, I've had it months now and have only charged it a few times. The size is also good, makes it very portable.

- Sometimes loses signal and starts 'speaking in tongues.' However, I think it's probably more to do with where I've placed it and signal strength in my area, rather than the radio itself.

Mard, Huddersfield

+ The battery life is absolutely amazing.

- The writing below the buttons, indictating what they do, has worn off already. It doesn't really affect things, because it is very simple to operate and hardly has any buttons, but if somebody who hasn't used it before borrowed it they would struggle.

+ Good sounds, good display screen

- Easy to search through different radio stations, but difficult to actually choose a another station, i.e. weird press button for 3 seconds. Channel doesn't change if you press the button for a longer or shorter amount of time.
