Wonky interface takes time to master. Only portable with the proprietary ChargePAK E1. Alarm clock a bit too mild for our tastes. Static noise is pronounced when the volume is at max and the radio is on
The elegance of the touch-sensitive interface comes at the cost of usability. Remote and battery pack cost extra. Many popular music services

Streamed radio shows don’t always sound fantastic, and the Flow’s 7W speaker is only average. Upping the sound quality with an optional speaker costs £40. However, there’s no adding buffer memory after you’ve bought the Flow...
The only way to invite German tranceheads, Senegalese guitarists and Chinese opera singers to a knees-up in your kitchen without having a heck of a cleaning bill. Great radio, although not for audiophiles.Pure Evoke Flow is tagged with pure, DAB and in...
We are very impressed with the Pure Evoke Flow. It’s easy to use, offers a huge number of functions and is value-for-money to boot. Carrie-Ann Skinner Lowest online price: ££169.95 ...
Put simply, this is a great little radio. In terms of features and performance compared to price point, its one the best we have seen for many a moon. It’s not very often that we get a product that really feels like big step forward, but this is one...
Abstract: Internet radios are nothing new, so Pure has had plenty of time to learn from the mistakes of its rivals. Namely, poorly-organised station lists and ugly cases.
