According to our radio expert
Enjoy digital radio with the Philips AE5220. Thanks to the digital DAB+ tuner you can listen to a noise-free radio signal. With DAB + you search for radio stations by name and you don't have to search for the frequency every time. The radio works on batteries, so you can put it anywhere in the house. This means you don't always have to search for a power outlet. Thanks to the indicator you know when the batteries are low.

We have had this beautiful DAB+ radio for almost a week now. And we can't miss it now.
scope of delivery The radio is delivered in an excellent protective packaging. In addition to the radio, you will also find a 220v mains adapter in the box. This radio can also play on batteries. Great combo!
design Whether you like something or not is of course very personal. However, we immediately fell for the tasteful design of this radio. The cabinet is made of wood and the contrast with the silver-colored front is very nice in our opinion. It is perhaps the simplicity that catches the eye the most. Unfortunately, the carrying handle is made of plastic, which is a shame and does not match the look.
Service This Philips DAB+ radio is very easy to operate. We do notice that a few seconds pass between switching on and actually starting the radio.... But when it comes to life, the rest will happen automatically the first time. Channels are easy to store. The three shortcuts for your favorite stations are ideal! Quickly switch between favorite channels. This is all clearly supported by an easy-to-read display. This display can also show various information, such as station name, clock, date, etc. Great!
Sound The radio produces a remarkably beautiful sound and the volume is also more than sufficient. So there is enough 'power' in it and the sound is not distorted for a moment. Beautifully clear, and speech is also perfectly intelligible.
Conclusion Is this better than an 'old-fashioned' FM radio? We think so. The stations come in crystal clear and the signal is constant and stable. The range of digital channels is more than sufficient for us. And that offer will only be expanded further in the coming years.
The fact that this radio can play on both mains power and batteries is a big plus. So you can also take it with you in the garden or to the campsite.
Are you looking for an affordable DAB+ radio and do you want a device without unnecessary bells and whistles? Then this Philips might suit you very well.

A child or your Grandpa and Grandma can get to work with this after unpacking. After one push of the button, all channels are installed and also visible in the display. After turning off and on again, the last radio station is played and all in a CLEAR sound. For some it is a disadvantage that there is no Dutch manual included

This is truly a beautiful device with excellent sound quality. Because of the quality of DAB I bought this radio because I would like to be able to listen to radio over the air. Where the quality of the radio is excellent, the coverage of DAB in NL is simply disappointing. I am referring here to the roll-out of Phase 3 of the transmitter park in the Netherlands. Between 2015 and 2017 this will be such that indoor listening is also possible everywhere. At the moment that is simply not the case. Depending on where you live and the construction of the house, looking for a good place for the radio can be quite a task. However, all this is not a reflection of the quality of the radio: the stations that can be received well, both via DAB and FM, sound excellent because of the beautiful wooden cabinet. In short: warm sound and beautiful design
