Absoutely perfect when you're outdoors and a radio would be inconvenient, with lovely sound. Manages DAB at least as well as other DAB devices in my area. Very light so can keep in shirt pocket. Listened to Test Match Special all day at Lord's recently and had several hours use subsequently, all on a single charge. I personally prefer to use my cheepie headphones rather than provided in-ear phones. Owned it for a year and it's been trouble free. An excellent buy.

PURE Pocket DAB 1500Review date: 2010-08-23 Rating: 10 out of 10Bought this for my Brother in Law who at the time (July 2010)was spending a lot of time in hospital. He is absolutely delighted with the purchase. Easy to use, good reception (Crewe area). Only problem was difficulty in keeping the supplied pair of ear pieces secure in ear. Purchased a small set of over the head earphones - problem resolved. He does have serious physical impairment with his hands. He wiles away many an hour with the DAB radio both at home and in hospital. Very satisfied with the purchase which arrived quickly and in time. Typical - in my experience - of the service that amazon offer.Excellent DAB radio on the move!Review date: 2010-08-05 Rating: 10 out of 10This is the second DAB radio that I have purchased. The first, which was stolen,was a Philips. There is no comparison; the Pure DAB 1500 is much better. The build is good and the sound is excellent.Pure PocketDAB 1500 Personal DAB/FN RadioReview date: 2010-07-29 Rating: 8 out of 10I got this portable DAB radio so I could listen to the cricket without interruptions from the Shipping Forecast etc and to the F1 practise sessions on Radio 5 Live Sports Extra while out and about and it does serve for that very well. I also like to listen to music while out cycling and running and that is where is a bit of a problem as reception drops in and out but this is due more the the patchy DAB reception in this area. Battery life seems to be good and should last a good long day before recharging overnight. Operation is simple with the number of presets just about enough for the range of channels I most often listen to. It includes and FM tuner too which I will be using for Radio Silverstone when I go to race meets there.
I have knocked a star off as it is relatively chunky compared to a modern MP3 player and I need to hang it from my belt with the headphone lead hanging loose to get better DAB reception which means it can get in the way and I have caught the lead and yanked the plug out of the socket more than once.DAB drab!Review date: 2010-07-23 Rating: 6 out of 10Bought this for my motorbike but doesn't appear to do the job. Tried in the car incase it was a problem on my bike but no. It is a little bulky so no good for the gym or jogging! It can't seem to hold a good signal. Maybe I am doing something wrong as it gets great reviews in What Hifi. Oh well maybe have to play with it a little more.
