About this deal

This may sound like a minor point, but it does make the Move R3 simpler to use. Assigning presets is easy, too. Just tune into a station then long-press the preset button. An easy-to-use interface: The ultra-clear OLED display makes it easy to navigate through the menus and find the stations that you want. Some DAB+ stations are broadcast at a pathetic 24kbps. That sounds bad even using AAC+. My main hope is we’ll get some BBC stations on DAB+ at 128kbps or 96kbps, but there’s no official news of that. Pure Move R3 – Sound quality DAB+ has been sold as a way to solve DAB’s issues, that the limited broadcast bandwidth means there’s a natural conflict between the number of stations and their quality. However, the first handful of DAB+ stations suggest the race to the bottom in quality terms may start… close to the bottom.

Most DAB interfaces are simple, but Pure has gone the extra distance to make the Move R3 as painless to use as possible.

In terms of sound performance, the audio quality of the Pure R3 is very par for the course for Pure. The sound is deep and clear, just like you would expect from a Pure radio. Additionally, it’s nice to have the addition of the noise-proof headphones. However, we found that they were a little uncomfortable to wear. Enjoy superb quality audio reproduction and digital amplification, with separate bass and treble control for personal customisation.

Most of our Pure Move R3 Audio Hi-Fi Equipment services come with a minimum of three-month warranty which you can extend to a one year warranty for complete peace of mind and customer satisfaction.

We mentioned the simplicity of the Pure Move R3 above because that was one of the first things we noticed when we started our review. The device is sleek and simple, clearly designed for the people who have spent their lives using MP3 players and iPods to swipe through their music. If you’re the kind of person who always wants to have access to the radio, then the Pure R3 can give you that.

In addition, the usual DAB caveats apply. If you have a work commute that involves underground rail or a route with more tunnel than outdoors, the Move R3 probably isn’t a good fit. However, this isn’t Pure’s fault. I would certainly recommend them to … read more anyone who are looking to have a repair undertaken. The Pure Move R3 has a built-in rechargeable 2000mAh battery, providing up to 15 hours of listening time. Radio stations can be listened to while the radio is charging through the micro-USB port.
