DAB/DAB+ & FM Portable Digital Radio | Simple Controls | Dual Alarms & Sleep Timer | Battery & Mains Powered (4x”AA”) | Bluetooth | Perfect for Home, Office or Outdoors | AZATOM Desire X2 (Oak)

Update on my previous review, The Radio Is Great, Clear crisp sound. Station selection easy once you get used to the chaotic Manual, which is it's only downside. I am not using it as a portable although it is. I do not use batteries as they have a short life on DAB and DAB+ radios. on the whole I am happy with my purchase.

Nice little radio. Easy to setup

This is the third Azatom radio I have bought from Amazon. It is small but ideal for a small bedroom. The sound, as always from this manufacturer is very good and the radio has an attractive wood finish. However, tuning in and setting the presets could be easier (or perhaps it's just my age). I do find it difficult though.

Compact with excellent volume

It’s not often that I am not impressed by a product from Amazon but on this occasion I must say this radio is a big disappointment. I had a perfectly good one which became obsolete because the station I listen to most ‘upgraded’ its signal to DAB+. I think that one cost about £60. This cheaper model is a great deal smaller than its picture on Amazon suggests and I found that if you turn the volume up above halfway the sound distorts. So much for the ‘upgrade’ to DAB+ being to improve the signal. The instructions for tuning the radio were woeful also. They said that when you found the channel you wanted, you should press ‘ select’ but there is no ‘select’ button. Thank goodness for the QandA section for the product, where other purchasers explained that the select button was the knob on the side of the radio which you had to press in when you wanted to select a particular station. I should have bought a more expensive model. You only get what you pay for after all. Scanning to put all the channels on the radio was remarkably easy so for that reason I give this product 3 stars. After some weeks of using this product I have decided that my initial review was grossly unfair. This is an exceptionally good product for the asking price. I play it all day long and the sound can be heard clearly even when the radio is in another room. The sound does distort at high volumes but if you want superior sound you are going to have to pay much more than £32.95. Further update as of 03.03.24 - Like Dorothy R I’m experiencing problems with this radio relating to its connection to the mains. The sound keeps cutting out. Fortunately I can still return it. Back it has to go. Very disappointed.

Brilliant thank you

I couldn’t be happier with this radio! From the moment I turned it on, I was impressed by the crystal-clear sound quality — the audio is rich, well-balanced, and far better than I expected. Whether I’m listening to music, talk shows, or news, every station comes through with perfect clarity.The design is sleek and stylish, blending beautifully into my home decor. It’s compact but feels sturdy and well-made, with intuitive controls that make tuning and adjusting the volume a breeze. I also love the added features — Bluetooth connectivity works seamlessly, and the battery life is fantastic, lasting for hours without needing a recharge.Setting it up was incredibly easy, and the reception is excellent even in areas where other devices struggle. It’s become my go-to for everything from background music while I work to winding down in the evening with my favorite programs.If you’re looking for a high-quality, reliable radio with excellent sound and thoughtful features, I’d highly recommend this one. It’s an absolute gem and well worth the investment!

Good price, not the best sound quality but does the job perfectly as an extra radio in the kitchen
