Roberts Revival Uno BT

Roberts' classy Revival Uno BT radio looks and (just about) sounds the part

Let’s say it straight away: this is how a radio should look. Cold hard plastic and towers of chrome have their place within the hi-fi design manual, but there’s no denying the irresistible charm that exudes from practically every item in Roberts’ bulging collection of retro radios – including the new Revival Uno BT.

The Uno BT comes in a choice of eight colours, if limited edition versions are taken into account, meaning you can have it in practically any shade you like. They all look great, although we are particularly fond of the way our teal blue test model classily blends into any environment while also bringing a little pizazz to its surroundings.

It is also really well made. Encased in plush leather with a dominant bronze-colored grille at the front, the Uno BT feels supremely well constructed and hardwearing – from the leather carry strap to the sturdy foldable antenna.
