Review: Cute little design with a big sound - I purchased this as a joint Christmas gift for us both. He wanted a new radio for the kitchen, I wanted a bluetooth speaker and this does both. Easy to use, compact design means it fits snugly in any room and its lightweight enough to take with you. If mains power isnt available it takes just 4 AA batteries which are readily available and cheap which is handy if you are out and about and find your batteries go flat. AUX input means I can use it with my iPod, sound quality is good and easily fills the room, and the dual alarm is a handy feature. Its so good looking its now taking pride of place in the lounge so it looks like I will need to buy another for the kitchen! Review: Easy Set-up - It’s a neat size and shape with a good leaflet to tell you all you need to know. The first time I turned it on it scanned. The Time set itself. The radio played immediately and the sound was good, clear and sounded as if from a more expensive radio. The move from station to station was easy and instantly a good sound, no struggling. Love the shape of this radio. I used 4 batteries but will no doubt use mains. I think this is a good product and it came well packed and has the mains plug and an alternative 2 pin plug. I fitted the 3 pin plug easily. The carry strap looks like leather but may not be. It’s perfectly strong and does a great job. I used the antennae. Very pleased with this radio. Recommend. ## Features - RELIABLE RECEPTION, MORE STATIONS: This digital radio DAB covers DAB, DAB+ and FM with auto-scan.

Am I doing something wrong?** A: We've got two identical radios of this type. In both cases we only use mains power (no batteries) and, if the radio is completely switched off, when it is next switched on again the clock initially shows 00:00 for literally a second or two before resetting itself at the correct time. It presumably picks this up from the radio signals. There is never any need to manually set the clock. Incidentally, with one of our radios we always completely switch it off from the mains when it's not in use and there's never been a problem with it remembering the stations that we've stored in the pre-sets. Presumably it has some kind of 'flash' memory in which this information is stored. **Q: my display has gone faint i can hardly see it? i use my dab on mains ..help please** A: My display has also failed, unfortunately out of warranty **Q: Maybe a daft question..but is there the capability to save presets as I have looked at the buttons and cannot see a preset button.Thank you** A: I'm sorry, I was so disappointed in this radio, I don't remember the button layout. I sent it back and bought the Play 10 instead. Lovely little machine with 3 presets. You won't regret it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cute little design with a big sound *by S***S on 14 December 2015* I purchased this as a joint Christmas gift for us both.

The sound quality is the best I've heard from a DAB Radio, the speaker is nicely built and gives great high and low end responses, there's a nice balance between the bass and treble. The radio is easily portable with a neat leatherette handle and the radio has a great, well built retro appearance. Mains or battery operated and you can charge USB devices from it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retro Mini Portable Dab Radio Mains Powered - Digital Dab Radio Alarm Clock - Rechargeable Bluetooth Radio Battery Powered with Aux - Bedside FM, Dab+ Radios with Dual Alarms Battery Operated - Oak - Duracell Plus 9V Batteries (4 Pack) - Alkaline - 100% Life Guaranteed - Reliability For Everyday Devices - 0% Plastic Packaging - 5-Year Storage - 6LR61 MN1604 - Duracell Plus AA Batteries (24 Pack) - Alkaline 1.5V - Up To 100% Extra Life - Reliability For Everyday Devices - 0% Plastic Packaging - 10-Year Storage - LR6 MN1500 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/151971949-vq-retro-mini-dab-dab-digital-radio-and-bluetooth-speaker](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/151971949-vq-retro-mini-dab-dab-digital-radio-and-bluetooth-speaker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
