I couldn't be more pleased. I bought the grey and white version and it looks very smart. The grey section is rubberised and gives the radio a very nice feel. The build quality is just superb. In the box you get the radio, the power supply/charger and instructions. The charger connects to the radio with a proper power plug - not a flimsy USB like some. DAB reception in my area isn't the best, but this radio works really well for me. Tuning is easy, as is storing presets. FM reception works brilliantly too! Pairing with my iPhone was very straight forward and bluetooth streaming works well. The sound is very good for such a small speaker. The colour info screen is very clear. I did wonder if this would drain batteries quickly, but battery life is excellent. You can also listen with headphones via the 3.5mm headphone jack. This is in stereo, which is great! The thing that swayed me more to this radio was the ability to charge rechargeable batteries in situ with the included power supply. A fabulous feature. There is a little switch in the battery compartment which you set depending on whether you have non-rechargeable or rechargeable batteries installed. Obviously you wouldn't want to try charging non-rechargeable batteries! The charging works well when the radio is off and is indicated by the light on the front plus the screen says battery full when charged. The standard USB socket on the side of the radio is a bit of future proofing from Roberts. It's for future firmware updates. But isn't really used at the moment. This radio exudes quality. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than some, but it feels like it will last! I'm so pleased I bought this! Review: "Cheap" DAB / DAB+ radio that woks as you'd want - Despite DAB being a terrible radio format with all stations being compressed in audio and in bit-rate to save money, the radio sounds good - just not great. Like all DAB radios, you can't change the way it sounds, no equaliser settings, many stations play out muffled (doesn't matter which DAB radio you buy). Setting the stations to memory is easy enough, and like most DAB radios, if you accidentally do a full rescan for stations, it also blanks the stations you saved, so you have to spend ages re-adding your favourites. The FM past of the radio is good, sounds better for stations like Classic FM, and also, FM have all the stations in stereo, where 98% of stations on DAB / DAB+ are in mono (even the ones in stereo on FM). Not tested the Bluetooth streaming. Best bit is the radio is powered by 4 AA batteries, so you can use regular or rechargeable (I recommend rechargeables), so your down time is the time it takes to hange the batteries, unlike other radios with built in batteries, which you'd have to put on recharge and not listen at the same time. Is it worth the cost, that's up to you. ## Features - Portable battery power or mains plug in - Full colour screen - 20 station presets - Headphone socket - Roberts DAB radio ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B091YFB8N2 | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,851 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 53 in Portable DAB Radios | | Box Contents | Roberts Play20 DAB Radio | | Brand | Roberts | | Brand Name | Roberts | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Headphone | | Connectivity technology | Auxiliary | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 625 Reviews | | Display Type | Color Display | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Hardware Interface | Headphone | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 16.7L x 3.7W x 10.7H centimetres | | Item Type Name | DAB RADIO | | Item Weight | 390 Grams | | Manufacturer | Roberts | | Manufacturer Part Number | PLAY20BK | | Model Number | PLAY20BK | | Network Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Features | Portable | | Product dimensions | 16.7L x 3.7W x 10.7H centimetres | | Radio Bands Supported | FM | | Special feature | Portable | | Style Name | Single | | Tuner Type | Digital | | Tuner technology | Digital | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Roberts - **Colour:** Black - **Connectivity technology:** Auxiliary - **Included components:** Roberts Play20 DAB Radio - **Power source:** Corded Electric - **Product dimensions:** 16.7L x 3.7W x 10.7H centimetres - **Radio bands supported:** FM - **Special feature:** Portable - **Style:** Single - **Tuner technology:** Digital ## Images ![PLAY20 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Cq3nsBLYL.jpg) ![PLAY20 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jHBsfOlQL.jpg) ![PLAY20 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61VmkecE++L.jpg) ![PLAY20 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51g3DuXRD2L.jpg) ![PLAY20 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61szL7x8LYL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this product genuine** A: It's a Robert's DAB radio as advertised that runs on mains or rechargeable batteries. There is a charger built into the radio **Q: Is it mains operated?** A: It can be mains operated or by using rechargeable batteries. **Q: Is this radio mains operated?** A: It comes with a mains lead, also takes either ordinary or rechargeable batteries so very versatile. **Q: No mention of warranty period. Is it full 2 years? The radio can be bought for Β£65 but only with 6 months warranty.** A: I believe you have in UK a form of redress if the item you purchase goes wrong within 5 years. However, after 6 months you will have to prove it wasn't your doing or simply wear-and-tear that caused the item's fault. My Roberts Play 20 appears quite solid and was bought to replace a Roberts transistor radio that was showing its age after nearly 30 years. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Radio! *by D***R on 27 April 2024* I bought this to be able to receive DAB+, which my previous DAB radio doesn't.

Works on Mains, or Battery. If using NiMH you can charge them in the radio at a switch of a small button inside the back. It looks good, is extremely well made and the sound is better than anticipated for something of this size. It is really easy to get up and running although I struggled to get more than 4 presets to work as there is no documentation with the radio. I found them online at the Roberts site and all is fine now, though including them would have been preferable and why I marked it 4 star and not 5 star. ## Frequently Bought Together - Roberts PLAY20 Compact and Portable DAB/DAB+/FM Digital Radio, Rubber-Protected, Full Colour Screen, Black - Duracell Rechargeable AA Batteries (Pack of 4), 2500 mAh NiMH, pre-charged, Our No. 1 Longest Lasting Rechargable battery with a 0% plastic 100% recyclable packaging --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/331493001-play20-fm-dab-dab-digital-portable-radio-rubber-protected-full](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/331493001-play20-fm-dab-dab-digital-portable-radio-rubber-protected-full) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-05*
