Splendid little radio
Nice compact stereo radio, easy to navigate menu/modes, internet connectivity etc. Sound is a little boxy but for the price it's well worth the money.

Good for the price
The DAB was easy to set up using the wizard, and, with a bit of fiddling with the EQ, the sound is good.Bluetooth is a bit of a faff, will not automatically connect to my phone despite being paired. I have to go into BT set up on radio then connect from the phone. Works fine after that.The Internet radio mode is fantastic. So many stations!As others have mentioned, the UNDOK app works with this, so you can use your phone as a remote. This also makes searching for stations much easier.

Does it all
It does the lot, FM DAB INTERNET and BT speaker.Love this little RadioOnce I worked out that the large rotary knob pushed once turned it on and a five seconds press turned it off we were away.Internet Radio ..Los Angeles has a Disco Station and Alice Springs has a local Radio.DAB has 4extra with old programs that are a joy to hear.This Radio is a little complex but is a quick learn.

Five Star Radio.
The Elan Connect+ is a fantastic portable Internet radio.It was simplicity itself to setup which was good because the typeface in the instruction sheet was too small for me to read without a magnifying glass.The sound reproduction is very good, as is the build quality of the radio.Definitely a 5 Star product.

Faulty software and disappointing sound
Had high hopes for this but was utterly disappointed.After setting up (which was quite a pain) I selected a couple of stations from Portugal which worked fine although the sound quality even on a fast fibre connction was not particularly good via the speakers but ok on headphones.I then tried to select other European stations from the countries menu but this did not work and the system reset itself regularly, e.g. when asked to list German stations.Tried a factory reset and checked for software updates (system showed latest software installed) but nothing changed.So it went back the next day.Needless to say that I will not buy another 'Pure' product!

Delightful compact radio
Watched a video on this and stunned at the versatility of this little box. Sound quality is good for such a small box but it's a PURE so no big surprise there. DAB and FM as expected the jewel in the crown is internet radio. Where DAB is intermittent internet radio comes to the rescue all major radio stations are there plus any from around the world. I tried a Brazilian station worked perfectly. Also has a podcast channel not used yet

Decent enough radio, speakers could be better
Mine arrived today and I've been doing some playing about.Initial test conditions:- Garden with strong signal from local TX- Fast broadband connection with good garden wifi coverageInitial impressions:- It's a bit more "deaf" than my phone is for wifi. Had trouble connecting to a different AP on the other side of the house despite phone connecting OK. Once I'd moved closer it connected fine and updated the firmware.- Speakers are about as I expected from other reviews and the price. Not that great and the bass is a bit muddy to me. Obviously you can only tell any stereo separation close up. OK for casual listening though, e.g. kitchen/garden/shed etc. and they go loud enough without too much distortion.- The rest of the testing was done using a pair of Sony earbuds plugged in - the general sound quality was very good indeed through these.- FM - apart from initially the auto scanning being a bit quirky (missed a couple of stations despite them coming roaring in from the TX), I've no complaints. There is a scan setting for "strong stations only" which can be turned off. Very good reception and barely any hiss at all on the strongest stations. Tested in the house as well, more hiss but otherwise still perfectly acceptable. My Philips LED bulbs didn't seem to trouble it. Auto scanning OTOH was a different matter - it missed more stations despite reception being OK when manually tuned (lights on or off).- DAB - meh, it's DAB. I've not listened to DAB using headphones for years and I'd forgotten how awful 112kbps MP2 sounds. At the risk of reopening old debates, DAB really does sound worse than a well tuned FM station in most cases. Lower bitrate DAB+ AAC isn't much better. Anyway, it scanned and found all the stations fine. In the house reception was also fine.- Internet radio - pretty good! The higher-bitrate stations sounded fine.- UI - not too bad on the device, about what you'd expect from the limited controls. Responsive enough. The viewing angle of the display isn't great. Much more convenient to tune and set up the favourites via the app.- Battery life - not had enough time to test yet. Works fine on 1.2V NiMH rechargeable AAs though.Conclusion:Overall, glad I bought it really. Suits my casual listening purposes fine.

Bedside radio that does everything
The PURE ELAN CONNECT+ seems to be the only reasonably priced fully featured radio you can use as a bedside alarm clock. Reception on airborn radio is increasingly tricky, so internet radio, so long as a strong WiFi signal is available works very well. The sound is not audiophile quality, but access to world radio stations without interference and with 2 alarms, easy to use sleep function and plenty of user presets across all bands, this is great value. Only downside is the non-dimmable, but full colour screen which is a little bright for sleeping. DAB and FM both function well on strong stations, but this is not guaranteed inside buildings or at distance from transmitters. Bass and treble, audio streaming quality and many other functions can be adjusted, and there is direct access to podcasts. Double the price will often not get so many useful features.
