With our well-known green credentials we're all for recycling here at PURE, so when we saw the opportunity to reuse a few design ideas from the 1950s, update the technology and add a PURE twist, we jumped at it. The resulting radio is as cute as it gets, so cute that we think it'll still look good in the 2050s.

More than just a design exercise, Mio sounds fantastic too. And so it should: under its retro-modern skin is our very own EVOKE-1S.

Mio is our first portable radio to come with a removable ChargePAK pre-installed. Plug it in when you can and the ChargePAK charges while you listen; unplug it, and you've up to 24 hours portable DAB listening per charge.

A classic easy-to-use radio, Mio also includes an input for your iPod/MP3 player, Intellitext and textSCAN, FM with RDS, a striking new auto-dimming OLED display, an alarm, a kitchen timer and a USB connector for future product upgrades.
