Very good radio, but it came with a British electricity plug

Reviewed in Australia on 17 September 2020

This is a very good radio, but it came with a British electricity plug, and I had to buy a travel adapter so it could plug into an Australian electricity socket. But the sound quality is very good, it is easy to use, and I like how you can listen to internet radio stations. Very happy with it.

Great unit BUT DOESN'T COME with AUSTRALIAN PLUG SO YOU CAN'T USE IT!

How can you possibly sell a great sounding unit but supply it with no Australian adaptor for the power source? Unbelievable in my opinion.

Excellent product with fine sound!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 June 2017

The is an excellent piece of kit. Sound quality, I feel, is far, far better than has been suggested in some magazine reviews. Entering the system menu allows you either select preset equaliser settings or choose custom levels for bass, treble and loudness (which is what I did). I finally settled on Bass: 8, Treble: 10, Loudness: OFF. The values you arrive at will obviously depend on your personal taste and also radio position (eg, placement close to a wall may lead to a lower bass setting). If Loudnesss is set to ON then I find things can become just a tad boomy and congested with a loss of detail, especially at lower volumes. With loudness set to OFF though, the sound seems far more balanced and open. Adjustment though really does pay dividends and the time taken to carefully set the levels can result in a very natural and detailed presentation.
The speaker is capable of a surprisingly high volume level before any real evidence of distortion.
Wifi connection is solid and relable and mode/menu/preset navigation is intuitive.
I was just slightly disappointed to discover that the UNDOK android app which works with my Roberts and Revo radios was not compatible with the Pure F3. Instead one has to download Pure Select which is pretty much identical to UNDOK. Nevertheless it works!
Likewise the Frontier Silicone Internet Radio hub which Roberts and Revo (among others) use is not compatible with the Pure F3. One has to instead register and set up Favourites on Pure’s ‘Flow Live’ portal.
These are though just minor niggles and don’t really detract from what is a truly marvellous product!

It's like a portable radio that's not portable.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2019

Verified Purchase

It's lovely, sounds great, works well.. What more could you want? Well... It's tethered to the mains electricity supply.
So it's a bit of an odd-ball receiver. The mains electricity should have been built in or add a battery compartment.
As it runs on 12V batteries may be a problem? There's no handle either which I suppose is acceptable as it isn't
a portable. There should be an external antenna connection so it can be used like a tuner, if you're mounting in within
a shelf system you can't extend the antenna.

So, it's like a portable that's not portable.. In any case it's great. I was well aware of these shortfalls when I bought
it and accept this. Get one, sounds great and does exactly what it's supposed to.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 January 2021

I am very disappointed with this internet radio. I bought it on the basis of the good reviews. The sound quality at best is average but what really drives me mad is the poor connectivity to the majority of radio stations particularly US based stations. In my experience you cannot connect to the majority of US radio stations that I tried to connect to. I highlighted the problems to Pure and they suggested that the links were broken and that if I sent them a list of stations that didn't work they would restore the links as soon as possible. I forwarded a selection of stations but the links haven't been restored. I have another internet radio from a different manufacturer and there is no issue whatever making connections. Maybe the issues will be corrected but until they are I would avoid this product.

Do it right the first time and buy Pure.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 October 2020

A fantastic radio, sound quality brings out the best in good quality Stations, as ive found over the years some Stations sound quality are better than others, so if your sound sounds muffled, it isn't due the the device.
I managed to set up the radio 95% of the way, its that easy, only storing favourites I consulted the manual.
The Internet Radio side of things is amazing. You'll never run out of choice, plus find stations that only play a certain style of music, that's a real plus.
In sound settings I have mine set to my personal manual choice, I have loudness on and on Bass - 2 or 4. Which balances out the low end so it doesn't boom over the mid range, plus Treble on +2, just to slightly brighten the high end, but thats personal choice.
The unit is very well made and feels substancial, the speaker can go loud and still keep things together nicely.
I originally brought a cheaper DAB, as my two Pures are in storage with other stuff, but the reciption and it's ability to hold on to a signal either broke up, or become distorted with constant pop outs.
That went back and I just brought another Pure, and I don't regret it one bit.
IMHO, only Pure & Roberts have my trust in DAB Radios, with Pure always my first choice, so if your new to this, take some advice, spend a little more and do it right the first time.
I can't rate this unit high enough, the firmware is upgradable, and with Pures back up, will keep this running for years. Not to mention three years warranty.
Mt first radio was a Pure Evoke 1, which is now over ten years old, and apart from me accidentally breaking the transformer plug (£8 replacement) it's as good and solid as the day I brought it.
To pair it with your router requires you to scan for it on the radio screen, choose it. Them press the WPS button on the Router and job done, it's that easy.
I'm a serious HiFi nerd lol, and I'm very fussy regarding anything that plays music, and for the price, you receive more than your moneys worth with this Radio!

Mr LeCram

Loses network settings repeatedly and reboots!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 January 2021

Verified Purchase

I previously owned a Pure Evoke Flow which performed flawlessly for years. I bought the F3 expecting the same stability and quality unfortunately my experience has not been the same. The Evoke F3 was initially easy to set up and use, I especially liked the Pure app which acts like a remote control, and allows stations and podcasts to be set up much more easily, so much so I never actually used the remote that came in the box. Nice sound for its size, while very clear for talk radio.

However it was not too long before I noticed that the radio would unexpectedly reboot itself, sometimes it would come back online. Increasingly more often than not, it would fail to connect to the network and require the settings to be entered again, this was annoying as for security purposes I don't use WPS configuration, so I had to re-enter everything using the dial, tedious to say the least. Once saved, settings might last for a few hours of continuous play, and then repeat the process. I tried doing a firmware update but there was nothing new available. The location of the radio had good wifi reception, but that should not have affected the settings being stored and then lost. After waiting for a software update for the last 3 months, and re-entering the settings for the umpteenth time I finally decided that it had to go back. Amazon were really good and have authorised a refund, so might be a recognised problem.
