DAB/DAB+ & FM Portable Digital Radio | Bluetooth | Remote Control | Rechargeable Battery | Dual Alarms & Sleep Timer | Perfect for Home, Office or Outdoors | AZATOM Blackfriars 2 (OAK)

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.

Researched before buying. Great little radio with good quality sound for background music; but bit distorted for a kitchen disco. Small footprint on kitchen counter, easy to use with Bluetooth at very reasonable price.

I've found this a great radio. It feels solid, the DAB sound quality is excellent and battery life is impressive. The user manual could explain better how all the buttons work - for example, I still do not know what the 1/2 and 3/4 buttons do - but that's a minor disappointment.

Great rechargeable portable radio. Sound is excellent with no discernible distortion at elevated volume levels. Loads of features and look really good too.

I bought this for my wife for her birthday, she loves it, great sound, very easy to set up and use! Smart looking radio, also has a phono jack for earphones, wife loves it! It arrived in very good time and was well packaged.

Put simply, this is a great little radio with a sound as rich as one could expect - better even. The battery life is more than enough. I’m really pleased I got it. I use it every day.

I was looking for a basic DAB radio which would deliver really good sound. I hate tinny music and I anticipated having to spend at least three figures to get a decent unit. I looked at a number of the better known brands but when I compared what they offered compared to what this unit claimed, at a fraction of the price, I decided to give it a try. I have to say I’m really impressed. It’s simple; clean lines in design and basic in looks. It comes with a charging lead(for usb) and mains plug, adapter for aux and a remote control. Nicely boxed and the instruction manual is comprehensive and fairly easy to follow. I was impressed by product support, although I didn’t need to use it. I found it easy to set a number of preset DAB and FM stations. I took a few minutes to read through the manual and gain some familiarity with the controls and function buttons. Time well spent as I was then able to toggle quickly between mode, preset and enter functions to set up my chosen stations. There are click, timer, alarm etc functions; also straightforward although I haven’t set these up yet. Now for the important bit; the sound. Given the size if the unit, I’m impressed by the clarity. The bass is distinct, trebles are clear and the mid range also sounds good. There’s no distortion even at higher volume and as well as finding this little unit ideal for bedroom use, where’s there’s little background noise, I’ve also found it ideal in the kitchen and even outside. The carry handle is secure, but discreet, the aerial extends and retracts easily and all in all, this is punching way above its weight. A truly great investment, backed by product support and guarantee, so I have confidence it’ll last. I’m thrilled with this purchase b

Load of crap! Keeps switching off
