    Sadly short-lived item, no longer available new, but worth looking for second hand. The only (formerly!) available, timer-enabled DAB & FM radio recorder, in compact form. Geberally treliable once you know how to handle freezes. Let down is quality of DAB reception espec in recording mode.

    Extremely good but watch out, i have a pure evoke one which is really good at receiving DAB, the oono doesn't get anything when i put it where the pure is normally kept. However, in an area of good reception it is excellent.

    This is the best present I've ever been given. I can listen to radio 4 continuously - I no longer sit in my car waiting for the end of a play and my 2 mile walk to work is a joy as I flit between DAB and MP3 recordings! Admittedly, Radio Scotland doesn't work as well on DAB but that's a signal issue rather than my Oono and I can use FM when there's something I want to hear.

    The Oono MiniDAB portable radio is a truly diabolical product. The reception is terrible, and it has a lousy user interface.

    Any other product is better than this.

    Although it is very compact and easy to use, the reception on the digital radio is so poor that it is unusable. I live in South East London, and I am told that the digital signal in the area is good.
    It is impossible to use the MiniDAB for anything when it is charging as there is a loud hum. I don't know if this a fault on my MiniDAB or if it is common to all?!

    There is not much point in buying an expensive DAB radio/MP3 player that can't receive DAB.

    The Oono MiniDAB is a great radio! I love it!!

    I was worried at first because I have never heard of Oono, but they have come up with a winner here.

    It is the first decent handheld I have owned, and it is my third attempt. I liked my old Perstel BlueNote, but the aerial was a pain. The PocketDAB 2000 was just a little bit too HUGE!! The MiniDAB does it all, and more, in a tiny package.
