Advantages: Clear sound, good price...
Disadvantages: None

‘Invisible airwaves crackle with life, bright antennae bristle with the energy…’ * I actually received this DAB/FM Digital Radio a gift from someone who knew better than I did that I ought to have myself a digital radio! Mostly for ‘Planet Rock’ – what a station! But I won’t discuss that, just yet. Buying a digital radio was not on my list of things to do before I died, you see, not that I actually have such a list – I don’t really do many lists. ...
...forgetful. I do shopping lists, so I guess that is all right. This is not the most expensive of digital radios, but is a very good introduction to the world of digital. It is a sleek, grey little number that is roughly ten inches wide and five inches high. It certainly looks the part. When you switch it on you have one of those ‘Welcome’ signs. You know, at least it does not say ‘Hello,’ or ‘Howdy, how are you today?’ I hate those messages, they ... Read review

Advantages: Portable, good volume, lightweight
Disadvantages: none

After looking around for ages I finally decided on this based on many reviews of many products online and from talking to friends etc. I am very happy with my purchase. The IM600 is lightweight, easy to fold up and carry around in a rucksack/handbag. While plugged in to a socket, your iPod charges as you play it, and when you use it away from a power source the lithium ion battery kicks in (up to 8 hours playback apparently, although I have never ...
...with or without the power supply, which I was really happy about. It also comes with a remote control which is handy and can be used from a good distance away! To top it all off it also has a built in radio and you can preset up to four stations. So all in all I really recommend this product! I have no complaints at all! ... Read review

Advantages: Mains and portable use, clear reception, easy to use; has FM reception too
Disadvantages: Best to use rechargeable batteries if you're going use it as a portable; no alarm function

My sister recently recommended this product to me as being "great value for money" and as having "crystal clear digital reception". I was in need of a small digital radio for my bedside which could be operated both from the mains and battery, so I popped along to Comet to see if they had any left in the sale. I was delighted to find that they had and bought one on the spot. I tried it out at home, and found it very simple to use (and I'm not really ...
...small and easy to follow. I was able to access more digital radio stations on this small portable than I could from our larger, more expensive Pure version, which had developed problems with the display screen lately. The reception is also far superior. In a nutshell - a solid little radio, user-friendly, with excellent reception. I'm very happy with my purchase. ... Read review
