Roberts Revival iSTREAML FM/DAB/DAB+/INTERNET Digital Radio, Black

I purchased this a gift for my wife and she loves it! She loves the retro styling and the warm sound it has. It's a great item superb quality and sound, the only thing I think would be better is if the radio could be used to charge batteries but it's only a small thing, we generally have it plugged in but you can load it with AA's if you want to take it out and about. And they seem to last a fair time. I think for the quality built item that isn't your usual disposable electronics it's a fantastic value. It works well with internet radio DAB and FM though my wife just likes that it is easy to use and looks good and has a distinctive warm sound to it

Really nice radio, not the cheapest, but quality throughout. Connecting to the Internet was a bit tricky, but I managed it on the second try. The sound is excellent, considering it's a mono speaker, you'd never know. I used the recommended app UNDOK to set the treble and bass to my liking, and the bass is awesome. I can also change between DAB+ and Internet radio via the app, and control the sound levels, even switch it off. You can get the UNDOK app on Google Play. The colour is Sunset Yellow and the radio has a retro look, but packed with technology. All in all a considered purchase, but for what you get it's actually good value for money, and should last for years, as the build quality is awesome. Very happy customer.

Not had this long. But I can tell straight out of the box it is a quality radio. Looks retro with all the modern day technology. Simple to use just remember to use the mode but to select what you want to listen to. Each press will toggle around the settings whether it be the DAB radio or even listening to your favourite music on your USB stick. Noticed if you want to listen to the USB the format has to be MP3. Otherwise it will not read the file. Simple fix just convert the file to MP3. Great sound as well. A good base which can be change to your preference. I live in a area that radio signals is very crackly. But the DAB radio signal is crisp on this. I have also connected to my WiFi to open up more radio stations. I found I prepared to type in the password rather than pressing my hub. This can be achieved using the dial and toddling through the letters and number then pressing the dial in to select. Fiddly but achievable and once connected that is it. Highly recommended getting rechargeable batteries also. I have but in six AA Energizer batteries which can be charged inside the unit itself via the cable that come as with it. The display will show the status of your battery and will show when charged. Just make sure to switch the switch over inside the battery cover to input you are using rechargeable batteries. This is great for traveling and makes it portable.

I was writing a review for another product and this Roberts Revival radio showed as waiting for a review. I don't oftenwrite reviews but after about a year of using this radio to its full I felt compelled to comment. Delivered on time and well packaged. It is a true delight to use with great sound quality for a radio of this size. Aside from this Roberts Revival Radio I also have a Roberts Stream 107 (cheaper and much smaller) and a Roberts Stream 941 (no longer available but more expensive and larger). This Roberts Revival outperforms the Stream 107 in every category and comes a very, very close second in sound quality to the Stream 941 which is not portable. This Roberts Revival is a delight to have in any room, its looks come close to a work of art. I love it. Fiddly to operate (but still emminently usable), so I use the recommended UNDOK app on my mobile which allows me to operate it from that - ideal. Pound for pound this radio exceptional value for money. It works on mains power and also AA rechargeable batteries. The fully charged batteries last me about four hours. I really can't fault it, great sound quality, superb looks and excellent value for money.

Roberts still producing high standard equipment. The manufactured item is very sound at the moment still getting used to the various functions the unit can perform. Once again a good product let down by the Roberts not producing an instruction manual all you get is a printed A4 sheet of paper with instructions on both sides, with no continuity of procedure of set-up.

I’ve always liked the styling of the Revival range and the iStream3L offers the most functionality, benefitting from WiFi connectivity opening up your options of stations from all around the world in good clarity. DAB reception is patchy where I live so I tend to use the internet mode for all of my listening. Upon opening the box you get the impression of excellent build quality, the casing is reassuringly heavy, the gold accents in the grille and Roberts logo are beautiful and the stitching is pristine. Setup was very simple - the setup guide takes you through each step and the screen is easy to read and navigate. The easiest way to join your WiFi network is by using WPS, a simple one button press on my router got me hooked up - handy as the passcode contains lots of different characters in upper and lower case. I would recommend installing either the UNDOK or Oktiv apps to better control the radio, from here you can toggle the power, change volume and listening modes and even browse and search for stations as well as storing presets. If using Spotify, the radio is Connect compliant meaning it can be activated within the Spotify app and will begin streaming immediately. Sound quality is very good, it is not a Hi-Fi and uses a mono speaker set, but unless you’re having a house party it is adequate in terms of volume and richness. There is an equaliser that has preset modes or you can set your own, but I have not felt the need to tinker. I mainly listen to pop/rock and find it a pleasing listen for hours on end. There is a 3.5mm line out socket which you might found useful to hook up to your hi-fi or surround system. There is also a headphone socket and aux in socket on the top left of the control panel, it’s a shame that despite having Bluetooth on board, this is only an input and the iStream3L cannot be used with wireless headphones. I have installed 6xAA batteries in the bottom, when plugged in I keep the Roberts on my bedside table but I like the flexibility to take into the kitchen or living room without having to worry about an outlet. I have found battery life to be good around 10 hours, note the radio only charges when switched off though. There are 40 presets available in each mode and these are best stored and navigating using the app although it is possible using the unit itself. I chose charcoal grey for mine but to be honest all the colours look fantastic and the iStream3L is bound to look stylish wherever you place it. As well as being a nice sounding versatile unit it manages to be a piece of discrete decor too and I don’t think any other brand manages to blend this cocktail of functionality and style as well as Roberts do. All in all, a fantastic unit that has brought many hours of reliable, enjoyable listening without buffering or drop outs. Most sources are covered - DAB+, internet radio, Spotify, Amazon Music, Tidal, Aux In and even good old FM.

This is a lovely radio. Because of the various features it takes a little while to get used to but the operation is intuitive. The sound quality is excellent and it's portability is a real Plus. It is not cheap but it has all the Bells and whistles and looks lovely.

Bought for me as a present. Its a great sounding, versatile radio, which i found reasonably easy to set up. I am delighted with it. Love the colour too!

Very pleased. Value for (substantial) money. Very user friendly for setup and use. Great design, Kids and adults appreciated It alike. Only minor complaint for me in Italy was that It comes with a UK plug only.

Absolutely amazing! This was the best upgrade I made from Robert's Rambler BT radio. The sound quality to me is great and I love the fact that I can connect it to the home network and continue to watch videos or make calls on my phone without it broadcasting the content. Connecting Spotify was easy as well as tuning the radio stations and presetting my favourites. Definitely a worthwhile investment and I couldn't recommend it more.

Appareil génial, multifonction qui sonne bien

I love it

très bon son je recommande
