Pure One Maxi Series 3 Dab Radio Review And Giveaway Ends 09/09

Pure is a company known for it's designing and manufacturing of digital audio broadcasting and DAB+ radios.  They are world-class leaders in digital radio design, so when I was offered to review a radio from Pure recently I was keen to do so.

I was sent a Pure One Maxi Series 3 radio to review and also one to give away to my readers, more of that later!




The One range represents Pure's entry-level radios and is the world's best-selling digital radio range. Models include the One Mini, One Midi and One Maxi. Designed for portability, they can be powered with AA batteries or an optional rechargeable ChargePAK.



First impressions of the Pure One Maxi Series 3 radio were good. A slate grey colour (they actually call it Slate Blue) the radio is modern in design, although a little bit boxy. It was bigger and slightly heavier than I expected though so although portable I think it's the sort of radio that would be good listening to at home. I think the Pure One Mini would be a more portable version.



Set up was super easy - all you do is connect the plug and connect the power, push the on button and wait for the radio to autotune. The radio comes with both a European and UK plug to connect to the mains but you can also buy a ChargePAK D1 which is a rechargeable battery pack to make it eco-friendly. if you wanted to use normal AA batteries you would need 6 of them. 



The sound is crisp and clear, not tinny and far superior to an old-fashioned radio, no crackle here! The display is clear and easy to read, brilliant for an oldie like me.



It has a number of features as you can see above, including a socket so you can plug in your headphones, a kitchen timer, two alarms so you can wake up at different times to your favourite stations, and a sleep timer which puts your radio into standby mode after a set amount of time. I managed to connect my phone with the AUX socket and could play my Spotify through the speakers. Volume can be turned up loud without distortion too.



The 20 station preset was incredibly easy to set up, with 10 digital radio and 10 FM radio presets.

The Pure One Maxi Series 3 DAB radio is a solid choice for a digital radio, that's easy to use with a modern design. Pure has an excellent reputation and I feel that coupled with a three-year warranty for peace of mind, means the radio will last you a long time.

Today on my blog you can win a Pure One Max Series 3 DAB radio. Entry is via the Gleam app below and is free to enter. Why don't you bookmark the page and come back for a daily entry? Whilst you are here check out my other competitions too. Good luck!
