Goodmans Pocket DAB Radio with In-Ear Headphone - Black

Product Information

The Roberts R9993 is an inexpensive AM/FM radio that has better battery life than DAB alternatives. These radios often allow you to listen to both DAB and FM. Some models have built-in wifi to access your favourite internet stations and music from your smartphone and streaming services. Most newer devices will have Bluetooth connectivity as well. Other things to consider include: Sound quality It also features multi-room functionality. At first glance I didn’t pay much attention to the multi-room functionality as I imagine the Goodmans Heritage Portable being bought by someone who wants a kitchen or bedroom radio. It’s not overtly part of a whole audio series like the similarly-priced Sonos Play:1.

Clever speakers carefully modulate the levels of certain frequencies to avoid this, but the Goodmans Heritage Portable doesn’t.The 2-inch TFT screen on this Pure digital radio allows for easy navigation, with 20 station presets available so you can skip straight to your favourites. They can also be useful if you are travelling or going out for the day and won’t have access to a power supply. Instead of needing to plug the radio into the mains to power it or recharge it, you can simply take however many batteries you need. The Majority Little Shelford is one of the most popular choices of DAB radio you will currently find on the market. It is easy to see why the Majority Shelford Personal DAB Radio is so beloved by consumers. Also included on the front is a speaker, and four buttons, for Preset, for Power and the two volume keys. In the car though, it struggled in patches, especially with the antenna in. With the antenna out, the performance was a lot better, but it still felt a bit patchy at times. However, this is a harsh test, and should not be used against this. It was just something I really wanted to try.

Sound quality is light years better than the Goodmans Go Dash I reviewed last year. It is pretty bad. This is one of the better-sounding radios of this size, faring particularly well at low and mid-level volumes. It has detailed and properly contoured sound, where some radios can sound as though they only ever aim for a vague approximation of the source material. Most radios will have a built-in alarm, either offering a selection of tones or letting you wake up to your favourite station. Phone charging

Unwanted Food or Drink Products - Once supply conditions are broken, there are a number of factors outside of our control that can affect the quality of a product. Therefore perishable goods such as food and drink cannot be returned. Radios like the Goodmans Heritage Portable and Pure Evoke F3 try to bridge the gap. Their sound ambitions are those of a small hifi, not a small radio. That means more volume, more welly. This is a fine-sounding radio that goes loud enough to supply music for a BBQ or, for the serially unembarrassed, to get you dancing around the living room. Like with many portable DAB radios, batteries the battery life is unlikely to exceed 10 hours, so it’s best to use the mains whenever possible.
