And just like its older sibling, it sports Roberts’ distinctively adorable 1950s styling. It’s 35 per cent smaller than the original but has a similar gold speaker grille and cursive ‘Roberts’ logo on the front.

ccb talks about a "wi-fi upgrade" and "Pure Evoke Flow logo", but describes their radio only as a "Pure Evoke", not Evoke-3. Is it actually an Evoke Flow? There's already a thread on problems with Flows on firmware v1.7 http://community.whathifi.com/forums/t/352359.aspx The problem started last week when it kept trying to update the software automatically - even though I have already installed the newest version (v1.8) last year via my PC.

With four AA batteries, you’re only looking at around eight hours of use, but this is a great radio for the money, all the same.

What’s more, the practical user interface and large scrolling wheel makes it much easier for listeners to use their radio – even if they’re new to DAB technology. We particularly liked the fact that you can see all the art from your albums on the Pure Evoke H3 screen when streaming via Bluetooth.
