The radio also works when you’re using battery power – making it ideal for when you’re out and about. There are also multiple alarm functions if you want to set different alerts for specific days. The Roberts Blutune100 is a complete sound system rather than just a radio. It’s an upgrade of the earlier Roberts Sound100 sound system, with the addition of Bluetooth functionality as well as several other new features. The CD input is designed to be as seamless and hidden as possible. All you need to do is push the CD into a slot rather than using a tray, which helps to make the appearance a little more compact. I particularly liked the clear digital display and the included remote control, so you can manage your listening experience without getting off the sofa. Roberts Blutune 200 review: Features More than just a pretty face, this portable Bluetooth speaker combines exceptional sound quality with convenience and simplicity. There’s built-in DAB, DAB+ and FM connectivity, so you can find and listen to the radio stations that you love in crystal-clear quality. Bluetooth stream your music or listen to the radio or a CD, while wirelessly charging your smartphone, with the brilliantly practical Roberts Blutune 300.

Like the other Roberts radio, the Blutiune T2 was made to be highly user-friendly. However, it might be challenging to know where to start, especially if it’s your first time using the radio On the top of the device is the control panel. Here you can make the most important inputs such as On/Off, Play/Pause, volume and Co. In my opinion, the remote control is a bit of a downer. After all, it looks rather cheap compared to the high-quality radio. This is not only due to the plastic body, but also the buttons on it. These come with a very spongy pressure point, which doesn’t feel good and could have been crisper.However, you cannot expect more from an audio system in this compact size. The integrated equalizer allows you to adjust the sound to your taste. Thus, trebles, mids and basses can be adjusted here. If you don’t have that much tonal sensitivity, you can also select the predefined equalizer modes from Roberts.

With plenty of ways to stream the music or podcasts that suit you, we’re sure you’ll find something you love to listen to with the Roberts Blutune T2.Compact sizing doesn’t necessarily mean cutting down on features or functionality when you’re dealing with Roberts. What’s more, for those who need even more options, there’s the opportunity to stream music directly from your smartphone via Bluetooth. That’s probably why we spend so much time waxing lyrical about iconic Roberts Radio pieces like the Revival RD70, for instance. At this point, if you’re willing to pay the extra for the Roberts brand label, then you probably already know that you can expect a beautiful product in return.

Roberts doesn’t have many “unattractive” devices in its catalogue, although it’s fair to say that different items have their own distinct feel. For us, the Blutune 5 feels very similar to an old-fashioned boombox. Notably, it can take a little longer to find a Bluetooth connection from time-to-time – but this is common with most digital radios. It’s also worth noting that the FM connectivity isn’t the best that I’ve come across – but there’s really no need to rely solely on FM when you have such a strong DAB signal.
