Wanted a compact DAB radio alarm clock for next to the bed with super quality sound, adjustable dimmer light clock face, small in size, ability to charge phone and black in colour. This radio has it all ticking all the boxes plus it has WiFi. It’s a winner. It’s probably the most we have ever paid out but, has been worth every penny because of its quality radio tone.This is a Super good quality DAB radio alarm clock from a quality long established manufacturer (Robert’s) known for having a lovely soothing tone to the sound – no crackle what so ever.Easy to set up stations, alarm and manually adjust clock brightness if auto isn’t what you want.It’s a Winner!

Roberts have a winner here! It’s rather similar in build theme to their popular Petite radio but larger – solid, sturdier, still compact, and feels top quality. It looks great in the style of their iconic Revival radios. The large screen makes it super easy to see the time (no glasses needed!). The screen has an auto dim so when the lights go out, the screen dims down – but there’s also a simple dimmer button to override. Plenty alarm options. The radio (DAB+, FM plus Bluetooth) is very easy to use (screen shows your choice of readout below the time) – tuned in the moment I plugged it in – tons of stations, very simple to add favourite presets via heart button. Above all it was the remarkable audio quality and clarity that was the real surprise! There’s an equaliser function to choose different preferred sound presets – or set your own treble / bass in “MyEQ” – a real bonus. This is the best all-round bedside clock radio I’ve seen – it’s not portable, you plug it in, it’s solid. The sound quality, tone, volume and richness easily fill the room – the up-firing tweeter / main speaker in the rear design works brilliantly. I know Roberts radios well, have several, one I still use being 30+ years old. And this is one of their best products, best sounding radios, in years. I really only chose it as it looked like a smart, easily readable clock screen, with radio attached. But it’s far more – a very complete package. Not least in its finish in leather cloth – I chose black – with gold accents. Classy! Love it!

For bedside, large time display in which the brightness can be varied – I set on ‘Auto’ so it reacts to ambient light. Tunes in stations fine such as LBC. Easy to operate EXCEPT I found preset-tuning awkward with bleary eyes. Sound very good. Switch on radio by just pressing left knob. Highly recommended.

Somethings are worth paying a little extra for. Sound is great! Found it very easy to setup and has intuitive controls. I Like the fact it has the auto dim function and really large clock display. Very solid build and cool retro styling. Fully recommend 👍
