Looking for a small and stylish DAB? The new Roberts Revival Petite 2 retro digital radio might be for you.
If the name sounds familiar, it might be because the original design made the cut in my 10 of the best retro kitchen radios rundown a while back. Do check that out if you are looking for this kind of thing. Or read on if small and colourful is for you.
Of course, this is by Roberts, which pretty much always means a retro look. It also means quality. I’ve had a Roberts bedside clock/radio by my bedside for years, and it hasn’t failed yet. There’s a reason why Roberts is still going strong after all these years—they make products to last.
They also make good-looking retro designs, at least in terms of looks. The inner workings are as modern as they come.
Take your pick from seven different shades for this one, with each offering a choice of FM or DAB radio within.
That’s not all. This device also has Bluetooth, so you can stream sounds from an external gadget, using it as a standalone speaker. Also present is a 40mm speaker, 20 presets for saving stations, an alarm, a headphone socket, and the super-cute dial on the front, just below the screen.
Note also that this is rechargeable, with up to 20 hours of playback per charge. So, there are no ugly wires and you can take it out and about.
Want one? All those colours are available right now, with a price of £99.99 for each.
