Product Information

Though presentation is fairly detailed, voices do sound a little muffled compared to the more expressive Award-winning Pure Evoke D2. It’s like there’s a tin can between the radio presenters and microphone. Now, don’t get us wrong, there are few elements of the VQ mini radio that don’t quite live up to the experience you would get with something like the Retro Revival Uno from Roberts. What’s more, the Retro Mini can achieve volumes that are a lot higher than we expected when we started testing out this device. The VQ Retro Mini certainly lives up to its name. "Eighties-inspired" is the word we would use, and it wouldn't look out of place on the set of Stranger Things. It comes wrapped in a leatherette casing, which certainly makes it stand out from other models on the market. Most nowadays tend to be either plain old plastic or, as is increasingly the case, wood. The leatherette feels nice and looks fantastic. The VQ Retro Mini is available in a huge range of different colours, too. Whatever your own personal style, you're sure to find a Retro Mini that fits you to a tee.

The VQ Retro mini radio comes with DAB and DAB+ connectivity, as well as standard FM, so you can listen to any station you like.

There are also a few modern features thrown in for good measure, like a USB charging port, so you can keep your phone powered while you’re jamming to your favourite tunes.

That means the Retro Mini can also double up as a Bluetooth speaker. This is a very handy feature to have in a portable DAB radio. We'd even go so far as to say that it's a great Bluetooth speaker in its own right, even if you never tune in to the radio. Most DAB radios come in solid colours or with a wood-effect finish, but a few have more interesting designs. It can be hard to find a radio with a floral design, but there some good options out there.

However, if you can get a Retro Mini that works properly, we think that you should be delighted by the majority of the features and functionality. Retro Mini is born in Britain with expert design & engineering at our studios in the Hampshire countryside. Retro Mini is one of the world’s favourite digital radios. With a premium retro design and comprehensive connectivity with DAB/DAB+ and FM radio alongside Bluetooth for streaming. The only hard choice is which Emma Bridgewater designer print to choose for the premium PU leather case.Given its size, the VQ Retro Mini obviously can't compete with a towering hifi setup. At the end of the day, this DAB radio has been built with convenience in mind, and that tends to compromise the sound quality. Having said that, though, we were surprised by the sound performance. It's much better than other primarily portable models that we've come across, such as the Panasonic RF-D10EB. The VQ Retro Mini stands out as one of the most popular DAB radio options online for people with a love of retro style, and a limited budget. Very Protect - Replace insurance excludes some situations including not following the manufacturer’s instructions and wilful neglect.

Engineered with a single 5W ultra-wide full range speaker and encased in a wooden structure, the VQ Retro Mini sounds as good as it looks.
