Bush TR82

This radio was a hit in the 1950s and it could become one again, but only to a limited audience

Iconic design..., ... with understated modern touches

Poor sound quality across the board

We love the versatility, but a combination of our reservations about the TR82's ease of use and the poor sound quality keeps it far from the top of our shopping list

This updated version of one of the first portable transistor radios somehow retains all the 'traditional' features of the original model, despite this new digital incarnation

Iconic styling, FM, MW and LW reception

Limited connections, Disappointing sound quality

Its retro styling will attract cautious DAB dabblers, but they'll ultimately be disappointed by ease of use and connectivity
