I was pleasantly surprised at how much l like the Bush Pocket digital radio. It is small, about the size of a credit card but thicker. This was the perfect size as I was after something small that would fit in my pocket if I am on the go but also allowed me to listen at my desk without headphones. Though I was concerned that the sound quality of the speakers would be compromised due to its compact size. However, this was not the case, the sound from the tiny speakers are clear, sharp and loud. The built in telescopic antenna is extendable and picks up all the stations. You need to be careful with the antenna as it is quite fine/thin at the top, easily bendable/breakable. I love the timer function as I like to listen to music while in bed so I set it turn off automatically at a set time.

It is very easy to use with only 4 buttons on the front and a scroll wheel and lock key on the side. It comes with rechargable batteries, usb charging cables and earphones. The display can be changed to colours or black/white (see above pics).

The problem I have with it is that it can lose reception due to interference, more so if you are on the move. The other thing I don’t like about it is the 24hour clock but that’s just nit picking as I don’t even look at the clock!
