PURE Digital Evoke Flow

The Evoke Flow makes it a piece of cake to listen to online stations on a portable radio, thanks to its Wi-Fi connectivity, built-in search engine and online portal for storing presets. It also has DAB and FM tuners, looks smart and offers excellent audio and build quality

Philips AE5200

The battery- or mains-powered AE5200 portable radio offers brilliant design touches, good looks and excellent FM reception for a reasonable price. Its DAB performance could be better and it eats batteries quickly, but it's an appealing machine nonetheless

Editor's rating 5.5

Sony XDR-S10

The portable XDR-S10 is an attractive DAB and FM radio that will suit those who like value simplicity and don't want to spend too much. Although its FM reception leaves something to be desired, its DAB performance is great, and its sound quality is good, so it's definitely worth a look

Tivoli Model DAB

The Model DAB radio with FM and AM tuner is a cracking machine. Its buttons, switches and dials are a tactile delight, it sports a classic design, it sounds fantastic and its tuner is first-class. If you cough up a fairly large amount of cash, you'll get a radio that feels as good as it looks, and sounds even better

Roberts Revival RD-60

In purely technical terms, the retro Revival RD-60 DAB radio with FM tuner isn't particularly great value for money. But, if you're a radio lover more in terms of the device than the medium, it won't disappoint -- the RD-60 feels solidly built and looks stunning

Roberts solarDAB

For gardeners, travellers and those of an eco-friendly bent, the sun-powered solarDAB radio is a great option. Although it lacks an FM tuner, its small dimensions and low weight mean it's highly portable, and its fully charged battery will provide up to 27 hours of listening time

LG FA163DAB

LG's latest CD micro system is the FA163DAB -- catchy, huh? -- and with it comes DAB radio and iPod docking functionality. There aren't a million iPod-compatible DAB systems in the world, and even fewer that conform to this form factor. Plus, the FA163DAB costs less than £200

Intempo Fusion preview

The Intempo Fusion is a £99 DAB/FM-enabled iPod dock for the bedside, with a built-in sub woofer and portable design. It'll be on sale from mid October, but we got an exclusive pre-production model and got to test it out. It's definitely ideal for quiet bedroom listening, we found, as louder and heavier sounds weren't as good as softer ones

PURE Digital One Elite

For a relatively low price, the British manufacturer's One Elite DAB radio offers a heap of useful features, including live-radio pausing and rewinding. It's solidly built, easy to use and offers good sound quality with the spoken word, although it's average at handling music. Overall, it's a lovely radio

Intempo RDI

The iPod doesn't have a radio, let alone DAB, so an iPod speaker system with a digital radio built in has to be a good idea -- Intempo's RDI docking system is that good idea, and it offers a sleek design, good reception and impressive sound quality for the price

PURE Digital Chronos II

PURE Digital's Chronos II is an excellent DAB radio and alarm clock. Its looks maybe simple, but it's very easy to use and a doddle to set up too. Sound quality is good and you should have no problem picking up the major DAB stations in your area
