Decent radio
The radio sounds quite decent. Sound quality and volume are perfectly adequate for kitchen or living room, but of course it is not a HiFi system.
Pro

- Sound
Contra
- possibly price
Great device at this price.
Pro

- Operation
- WLAN reception
Contra
- No remote control
Good looking, but sound quality is poor, and it lacks a remote control
The device is nice, but the sound quality is insufficient for my taste. For use in the kitchen, the external transformer is cumbersome on a socket, especially if you want to connect other devices to the same socket (if 3x T13 socket). The screen is really small, which means that you have to be very close to the device to read it. And above all, it has no remote control, so you have to use the buttons on the device to change the music source, the radio channel or to adjust the volume.
Pro
- Qi charging pad
- Internet radio, DAB+, Spotify
- Bluetooth
- Configuration menus
Contra
- No remote control!!!
- No RJ-45 socket
- Insufficient sound quality
- Screen too small
- External transformer
Radio
On the whole, I am satisfied. Point 1 was delivery. Ordered at lunchtime and delivered the next day 👍 I think the sound is decent for this small radio with the small speakers.
However, operation could be a little easier. I use my mobile as a hotspod for my internet connection. Every time I switch it on, I first have to re-establish the network connection in the settings. Perhaps there is a trick that I have yet to find.Pro
- Sound is better than expected
- Lots of choice thanks to Internet, Bluetooth, DAB and spotify
- Price-performance absolutely ok
Contra
- Channel search somewhat cumbersome
- Must re-establish Internet connection to hotspod after each switch-on (a trick somewhere?)
Good radio at a fair price
Pro
- Wireless charging function for iPhone
- Simple operation
- Price/performance
Contra
- Sound could be better, but absolutely OK for the price
Practical beautiful design
Pro
- Multiple functions
- Super sound
- Super size
