A great little radio. Easy to use, the sound is clear and pleasant for the size of speaker but don't expect much bass. Good features like the built in clock alarm, snooze and sleep timers. Battery is quoted as being able to run the radio for 8-12 hours. I tested it from a full charge, playing dab radio constantly on a medium volume and it was still playing after 15 hours. When you register the warranty on Majority website they offer you a free 3 year warranty upgrade. For the price it's a great little radio and Majority seem a very good customer service oriented company.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Snooze Feature!!!
Don't switch the lights off, and then try to set the snooze feature to go to sleep. I cannot think of a more convoluted way to get the radio to switch itself off. And saving an FM station in preset catches me out. But hey, it is only technology! Still the body casing feels nice to the touch, and it is not expensive. The DAB scanned radio station, Radio 5, that I listen to, is often lost from all the captured scanned stations; so I am forced to do full scans frequently. Less often, the radio loses functionality, such as on / off, that can only be restored by resetting the power-off switch at the back.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Almost loveable
Excellent reception at both FM and DAB. I got 70 DAB channels, but when comparing the sound of say, BBC R2 at FM and at DAB, well, the DAB sound lacks clarity and sound level is 30% lower than FM. I don't know if this is because of the radio or because of the DAB bitrate being lower than 128. Then again, even Classic FM at 128 sounds poor comparing to an mp3 audio played from my computer, at 128. The radio is lightweight, and the built-in rechargeable battery is a plus, lasting around 8-12 hours. Again, I haven't tested the battery life yet, I hope it lasts the same 8-12 hours whether the reception is FM or DAB. I would love to have a treble adjustment. As I said, almost loveable radio. I love the fact it has been designed in Cambridge. Support our own people.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Perfect for work
I bought this to entertain me while I do my gardening job. last one I had was poor reception. this one used today for first time is excellent reception. I even got gold which the old one could not find. sound good for outside and volume perfect. worked all day about 7 hours and still plenty of power left in batteries. charges fast, and cleaned down after work well. very happy with. Just two issues with radio but only in the instructions. It says press next or prev to change station on dab. but you need to press enter as well. Also they don't tell you that the charging light is red when charging and turns blue when charged. small bug and does not knock the usage A good around radio and small enough to carry in your coat pocket perfect for workshop or work.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Not good in Mid Wales
This is a good looking lightweight radio. However it has the same problems as other receivers in my area. When I set it up I was looking forward to getting radio two without relying on satellite or computers. It picked up one station, the Aisian network, which to be fair one could hear but understood very little. I would suggest that this may well be very good in a strong signal area but here in mid Wales it unfortunately wasn't suitable because of the lack of signal quality. This in no way, as far as I can tell, the fault of the radio as so many people in my area suffer similar problems.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great little radio
I bought this to use in work. We are in and out of different houses all day for between an hour to three hours so I wanted something small and simple to use. The battery lasts a long time, and the radio just comes back on at the last station played when you turn it on. Simple to use and easy to tune in. Reception is good on DAB, I can't comment on the FM as I don't really use it. Sound quality is fine for its small size.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Easy to use, good value
I found this radio easy to set up and use. Instructions are clear and straightforward. It does have a few problems receiving Radio 5 Live but I have other similarly priced DAB radios in the past which also had problems with 5 Live (other stations are good). I contacted support and they came back to me quickly with advice. The sound quality is good for a low-price product and the built-in rechargeable battery is very convenient, no fiddling about changing batteries required.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Easy to use and great quality
I did not know if we would be able to receive DAB radio in this are as the website says we can't. I decided to buy this radio as it has FM reception and some neighbours said they can pick up DAB radio. The Arbury radio arrived within two days and was easy to tune in I am delighted to say that we can receive 12 stations including radio 4 and radio 4 extra. The sound is crystal clear with no interference from kitchen lights as we used to get on FM. The snooze feature and the portability - it works well in the bathroom for example - are added bonuses.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great little DAB radio at a great price
Good clear sound, picks up plenty of stations - even though we are in a radio black spot, easy enough to use. When storing presets, press the 'Preset' long enough for it to change to 'Store', then preset stations can easily be set. It says it in the instructions, but I found it a bit difficult until I became used to the technique. A great radio at a great price...Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
