Roberts Radio Play10 DAB/DAB+/FM Digital Radio with Simple Presets - Black

Awesome little radio at the price. Very light and portable. Getting good FM reception even with aerial stowed. Simple to set up and simple to use. I like the fact the top is slightly angled towards you. Only 3 stations can be saved (3 FM and 3 DAB) but to be honest that makes it simple to use daily. 3 stations 3 buttons…Nice and easy. Love it! Great value for money.

Adaptateur pour l Angleterr et pas pour la Belgique 🇧🇪

The look is fine but it has not very good reception. Edited & added: the sound is mono! Terrible!

This is a second purchase of this item. An easy to operate radio with good sound quality and easy tuning. I use on mains adapter so can't comment on battery life. Compact, good reception for fm/dab radio. Nicely designed and unobtrusive.

Good little radio. A few points that occur to me initially. The hand strap (flexible rubber) is a good idea but it could be a little bit longer - I have quite small hands but it won't go over them without a struggle. The radio runs off DC 5V so it should be easy to knock up a cable (centre pin +ve) to power it from a USB source which could be handy. For me however, the fact that it also can run off 4 x AA batteries is a real plus as I can use rechargeables in it. Quite a lot of the small DAB/FM radios on Amazon have their own internal rechargeable batteries which I am never keen on as they may be difficult to replace when they get worn out. The volume control is nice and sensitive so it is possible to use it in a quiet environment at low levels without disturbing other people (ie a sleeping partner !). I have read reviews of other radios where the minimum volume is quite loud. I cannot comment authoritatively on how sensitive the reception is. I am using it at my mother's house in Henley on Thames which is not a good area for FM reception let alone DAB. As I suspected, it works outdoors OK but indoors DAB is not available and FM is so-so but tolerable - I guess the sensitivity is average and to be honest for a budget radio like this I was not expecting too much. The stated aim of switching off FM transmission completely at some point in the future is barking - in my opinion ;) Sound quality is better than would be expected for it's size and weight. So, overall I am happy with the purchase and am confident that for me at least, at this price point it is the best option on Amazon at the moment for performance, value, features & design. Just a quick update after a week of use - the sound quality is most definitely better than could be expected. Of course it is not hifi and it is not particularly loud but at moderate volumes it is virtually free of distortion and has a nice engaging sound. It is a lot more sensitive than another DAB radio I have tried and can pick up stations indoors in Liverpool even without the aerial extended ! This could be par for the course for most DAB radios now. I am not sure because it is several years since I tried one here - the one I used was also a premium brand (Pure) which I now keep it on my boat but this Roberts radio would beat it hands down.

So surprised by this lovely DAB+ and FM portable radio. I bought it because its made by Roberts who are reliable and have good quality stuff. Good value. Great to use, can use the AC Adapter posted with the box and they include instructions too. You can use batteries if you want to take it outside. It has 3 presets for DAB and 3 presets for FM. The reception is surprisingly good on FM too, but it must depend on where you are of course. Functions well for me. Buttons are nice and easy to use. Overall, a contented customer and what do you expect from ROBERTS!
