DAB/DAB+ & FM Bedside Digital Radio | Dual Alarms & Sleep Timer | USB Device Charging | Mains Powered | Bluetooth | Perfect for the Bedroom Revival R1 (Silver)

Really pleased with this alarm clock radio. It’s neat and easy to set up..the sound quality is great for a small radio. Lots of handy functions like being able to charge your phone and has Bluetooth and headphone socket. You can change the backlight from bright to almost black. Just plug in and being DAB+ just came on with right time and date then started scanning. Easy peasy!

functional radio. Not the easiest to use as small buttons on top of the unit and it's easy to get confused as to which is which. Sound quality and alarm are fine. Display at front showing time, etc is illuminated at three levels - dim, brighter and brighter still. Would recommend.

My quest for a DAB radio that ticked all boxes was a long one. Strictly speaking, it's not over. However, the Azatom Revial R1 is as close to perfect as I've found so far and I have to say, I'm happy with it. My previous Ocean Digital radio was approximately 15 years old. The screen started going and I knew it was time to find another one. I went through several Pure radios (Elan, Siesta), VQ, Denver and not one of them could tick all boxes. The must haves were DAB, 2 alarms, decent sound and good dimming qualities - not such a tall order I don't think. The closest that I came to this was with the Denver radio, but it was just too bright at night. In came the Azatom radio - DAB+, good sound, 2 alarms and a button to toggle the dimming of the screen. Whilst I still feel the dimming could be slightly better, you can turn it off completely if you wish. The fact you can easily toggle the brightness gets the thumbs up from me. The radio is easy to operate once you get the hang of it, looks sleek and smart and it also has a metal antenna as opposed to the cable antenna, which I much prefer. It's picked up all the stations I was looking for and so far I am happy with how it's performed. You have the option of a buzzer alarm or radio, which is great. There's also a steady increase in the radio volume in the morning which I think is a nice touch. You can also control the volume as you like for the alarm. On many other radios I've tried the minimum volume for the alarm is so high, it would wake you with such a start - why oh why would anyone create a radio like this is beyond me. No such problem with the Azatom though :) As a side note: I noticed that when I first tuned the radio and it started playing Absolute 80s, the time was off by 1 minute. I e-mailed Azatom who were very quick to respond and told me that it was likely based on the radio station I was listening to. I changed the station to Planet Rock but it was still a minute out. However, unplugging the radio and leaving it for a moment before powering it back on sorted it straight away. You also have the bonus of being able to register your product for an extended 3 year warranty. I think this shows they trust their product. Thank you Azatom :)

Really good clock radio very good sound and easy to setup

Looks great, works very well. Did my research and this came out tops for the cost and I have not been disappointed. The alarm wakes me 100% of the time but gently as I have it on its quietest and set to my fave radio station. No more loud alarms 🚨 waking the whole house. It saves the alarm details so if the power is interrupted your alarm is still programmed 😃 Also gets it’s time from the DAB so no worries there! Love the retro look but modern qualities. Sturdy and robust. Great value for money. Defo recommend! The alarm takes a bit to figure but to be fair it’s easy enough once ya know how. It’s no more complicated than any other alarm clock. I think the people that complained in their reviews must never have had a proper alarm clock before. No more need for mobile phone in the bedroom. Do your research here, worst thing is to let your kids have a phone in the bedroom, especially for their sleep. Very hypocritical to keep your own if they are not allowed. Eaiser to have a ‘house rule’.

I did lots and lots of research to try to find a radio alarm clock for my kitchen. My old one eventually gave up and I wanted a clock which had the ability to come on in radio mode alarm setting. For me, this clock is almost perfect. Black and silver suit my kitchen colours. It has good clear blue display and very good radio signal on FM - Dab not so but then that is perhaps due to poor reception where I live. I found the alarm setting a bit fiddly and the buttons a bit difficult to make out however, for the money, I am very pleased and would buy another. The volume of the alarm is more than adequate for my needs.

Having owned this for a month the radio is fine. The sound quality is good for a compact speaker. The user interface is irritating. Pressing the alarm buttons to turn the alarm on or off usually selects the Alarm Setup menu. Holding the button down several times will usually get the correct alarm set or unset. Using the wrong combination of long presses means that I get the wrong alarm setting more often than I get the right setting. If you need to turn off the radio/alarm rather than pause it with the Snooze button you have to use the power button, press this a little too long and the device shuts down, resulting in no alarm in the morning. Also, the volume buttons are disabled when the radio is on in alarm mode, if you want to increase the volume to hear something more clearly, you can't. Verdict if you need a reasonable radio with occasional alarm it's OK, but I would not recommend it if you need a reliable alarm clock

Lovely little radio. Very easy to set up. Good clear sound. Great choice of stations. Very good price.
