Tech Review – Majority Eversden Bluetooth Water-Resistant DAB+ Radio

The Majority Eversden Bluetooth Water-Resistant DAB+ Radio that is portable and functional with good sound and you can connect your smartphone or tablet to it too which is handy.

Asides being a portable radio this can be used a a portable speaker and is very robust and has 15 hours of playback so there is plenty of juice for a full days session at the pool, beach or a long bath or shower with it being water-resistant.

There is a suite of buttons up top to allow you control the device and get the settings tailored to your needs and is simple to use and there is no need to download an app.

Up top there is two dials one for volume and one which is more functional as you will see in the video review below then you have the cluster of controls between these offers power on/off/mode/preset-recall station/menu button/info and a dimmer and snooze button.
