Great quality radio I put it on charge when I first got it as stated in the instructions ,only took 3 hours to fully charge so far it’s been on for 8 hours and still showing fully charged , sound quality is good , great value and a quality manufactured radio 😁👍

We bought this radio to take in the garden to listen to in recent lockdown and we are generally very pleased with it. Initially I found that the battery ran down and was flat quickly when I tried to turn it on subsequent times but this turned out to be me not turning it off and leaving it on standby, now not a problem. It was easy to set up and use even for me as a senior. Plenty of volume to listen to the radio in the garden without irritating the neighbours. Very easy to charge from any USB charger and battery life seems quite long, no longer have to look around for replacement batteries like our old radio. My only real issue is we thought it was manufactured by a UK company when it stated this in the advert “i-box are a proudly British company, our products are designed and developed in the UK” suggesting to me it was also manufactured in Britain but it is made in China. I think it should have said "Made in China" in the advertising wording.

I have had a small DAB radio for a long time and use it a lot. However all that use took it's toll and it became unreliable and most importantly hard to turn on and off. I had had it apart a few times and got some more months of use out of it but in the end decided to replace it Amazon is awash with DAB radios of this style and size, but I selected this because it was at least designed and developed in the UK. And also by chance was reduced in the 2023 Black Friday event. I was keen to try and support UK manufacturers if I could and this was a small way to do so Summary of the radio - easy to set up - did it without the manual. Tuning was fast to get all the stations. Easy to assign favourites (again without the manual), and quite quick to start making a noise from the power button press - ~ 5 seconds. Opportunities for improvement - it's very light and feels easy to knock over (especially with the aerial extended that raises the centre of gravity), and I think the volume could be a bit louder - I need to have it a max volume to hear whilst I am in the shower (and the old radio was no where near the same volume setting) So far the first battery charge has lasted a longer than quoted I think so a bonus as well Happy with purchase so far Update after more use The battery life is not as good as I'd hoped and I have to charge it more often than I'd hoped and more than my previous DAB radio. I've been refurbishing my garage over the summer for 3 days a week for a number of weeks so have been using it seriously 8+hrs a day and depending on the state of charge on Friday morning I've had to charge it twice over the weekend which is a bit disappointing. No issue with anything else already written above but the battery life is a let down for me and I've changed the rating to 4 as a result. Still happy that there's a greater element of UK content though as it's designed here even if made in China

Small and compact. Once charged very mobile. We think it is a good buy.

I bought this radio in 2021; it's now 2026. I use it in a small bathroom, it has worked fine and is still going strong after nearly 5 years. Unfortunately, the case is made of a type of black plastic than was fine when new but seems to have gone sticky/tacky over the years. I can't justify replacing it as it works fine, but I just wish the manufacturer had used a different kind of plastic for the case.

I was looking for a replacement for my old Roberts DAB radio, after it was dropped one too many times and stopped working. I'd found a few on Amazon that looked promising, but chose this one based on its size and ease of use. And so far, it's lived up to all my expectations. The radio arrived with a small amount of charge in it, allowing me to set it up straight away. On first switching it on, it performed an auto tune, successfully finding all the DAB stations. I was able to quickly and easily save my favourite stations by scanning through the channels, then long pressing the appropriate button on the front (1 to 6). Once set up and ready to go, I left it to charge completely and I'm pleased to say that after daily light use (around 1-2 hours per day), it's yet to be charged again over a month later. Overall I'm happy with this radio. Sound quality compared to my old Roberts radio is no where near as clear or crisp, but this is £40 cheaper than that one, so I'd fully expect that. On the plus side, it's much lighter than my old Roberts radio and the station buttons and volume control are much easier to use. It takes a little longer to find the station it's tuned to when first switching it on, but once it's found it I've never experienced any interference or loss of reception. For the price, size and build quality I'd definitely recommend giving this radio a try.

Funziona molto bene, anche se quando la batteria va a terra si cancellano tutte le memorie. Se si tiene in un posto diciamo fisso direi che conviene tenere il caricabatteria attaccato alla rete. Non so però se questo possa rovinare a lungo tempo la batteria che non è sostituibile. Ho scoperto che dove io vivo non c'è alcuna radio DAB ma ho portato la radio con me in viaggio verificando che la sintonia DAB è ottima, facile ed efficace con una qualità di suono davvero notevole. L'assistenza è ottima. Ho scritto una mail (in inglese) per chiedere chiarimenti sulla ricezione DAB e sul modo di spegnere la radio (ha sia uno stand.by che uno spegnimento completo che però perde il settaggio) e mi hanno risposto subito ed in modo esauriente. Non so dire se scrivendo in italiano siano in grado di rispondere.

Batteriet som ingick i radion gick snabbt sönder och kunde inte bytas ut.

Fantastische radio. Niet te groot, niet te klein. Erg handig dat ie oplaadbaar is. Menu is eenvoudig en intuïtief. Zowel DAB als FM hebben een zeer goed ontvangst. Het geluid is bovengemiddeld en beter dan ik had verwacht. Kortom; super apparaat.

We don't have DAB yet but the standard FM sounds great. We did have to buy an adapter for the USB though as we don't yet have USB outlets on our power points

Aunque solo cuente con cinco memorias, la radio cumple su cometido. Se oye muy bien y se carga por micro-usb, por lo que aunque no dura muchos días, la carga es bastante rápida.
