Review: Easy to set up - Brilliant little dab radio Great sound Easy to set up and use Review: Great little Dab/FM radio! - Very easy to tune. 6 presets. Three for DAB and 3 for FM. (3 preset buttons. You get the drift) The Radio is small and a good size with a rubber carry strap. It uses mains power or 4 AA batteries. The sound is quite nice. Quite good for the size. Classic FM and BBC Radio 3 sound good, and so does Capital Chill, haha. The radio has a good volume range. Reception is key, even with DAB. When I took it upstairs I’m sure it sounded clearer. It’s a great little Radio for the shelf in the toilet or maybe even a bedside, or the table where you work. Take it anywhere, it’s small enough. Yes, very good. ## Features - FM/DAB/DAB+ - Built-in FM/DAB/DAB+ and with the handy radio station pre-sets, you can access your favourite stations at the touch of a few buttons - Ideally portable - As the Play10 is powered by batteries, you can carry your favourite music and playlists around with you; or, if you'd prefer, you can power the Play10 using a mains socket - Personal listening - If you want to take your music elsewhere to listen in peace, there’s even a handy socket so you can listen with your own headphones without disturbing or being disturbed by others - Searching, made simple - The backlit 8 character starburst display makes it easy to search and scroll through menus, so music discovery is even easier ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008VT379S | | Antenna Location | Music | | Best Sellers Rank | 972 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 10 in Portable DAB Radios | | Box Contents | Owner's Manual | | Brand Name | Roberts | | Colour | White | | Compatible Devices | Headphone | | Country of Origin | United Kingdom | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (5,530) | | Display Technology | LCD | | Display Type | LED | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Frequency | 108 MHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05038301304379 | | Hardware Interface | 3.5mm Audio | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 40L x 70W x 40H millimetres | | Item Weight | 332 Grams | | Manufacturer | Roberts Radio | | Manufacturer Part Number | PLAY10W | | Maximum Speaker Output Power (in watts) | 10 Watts | | Model Number | PLAY10W | | Network Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Features | Portable | | Radio Bands Supported | FM | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Style Name | Radio | | Tuner Type | DAB | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Roberts - **Colour:** White - **Connectivity technology:** Auxiliary - **Included components:** Owner's Manual - **Power source:** Corded Electric - **Product dimensions:** 40L x 70W x 40H millimetres - **Radio bands supported:** FM - **Special feature:** Portable - **Style:** Radio - **Tuner technology:** DAB ## Images ![PLAY10 FM/DAB/DAB+ Digital Portable Radio, White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71vx6JhVsIL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does anyone know what type and voltage mains adapter I need for this radio?

Yes, very good. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good ! *by S***E on 12 September 2017* Good little radio. A few points that occur to me initially. The hand strap (flexible rubber) is a good idea but it could be a little bit longer - I have quite small hands but it won't go over them without a struggle. The radio runs off DC 5V so it should be easy to knock up a cable (centre pin +ve) to power it from a USB source which could be handy. For me however, the fact that it also can run off 4 x AA batteries is a real plus as I can use rechargeables in it. Quite a lot of the small DAB/FM radios on Amazon have their own internal rechargeable batteries which I am never keen on as they may be difficult to replace when they get worn out. The volume control is nice and sensitive so it is possible to use it in a quiet environment at low levels without disturbing other people (ie a sleeping partner !). I have read reviews of other radios where the minimum volume is quite loud. I cannot comment authoritatively on how sensitive the reception is. I am using it at my mother's house in Henley on Thames which is not a good area for FM reception let alone DAB. As I suspected, it works outdoors OK but indoors DAB is not available and FM is so-so but tolerable - I guess the sensitivity is average and to be honest for a budget radio like this I was not expecting too much. The stated aim of switching off FM transmission completely at some point in the future is barking - in my opinion ;) Sound quality is better than would be expected for it's size and weight. So, overall I am happy with the purchase and am confident that for me at least, at this price point it is the best option on Amazon at the moment for performance, value, features & design. Just a quick update after a week of use - the sound quality is most definitely better than could be expected. Of course it is not hifi and it is not particularly loud but at moderate volumes it is virtually free of distortion and has a nice engaging sound. It is a lot more sensitive than another DAB radio I have tried and can pick up stations indoors in Liverpool even without the aerial extended ! This could be par for the course for most DAB radios now. I am not sure because it is several years since I tried one here - the one I used was also a premium brand (Pure) which I now keep it on my boat but this Roberts radio would beat it hands down. --- ## 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.vu/products/49350728-play10-fm-dab-dab-digital-portable-radio-white](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/49350728-play10-fm-dab-dab-digital-portable-radio-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
