It gains a telescopic aerial for DAB and FM, which the original did not have, and it charges over USB-C instead of micro-USB, so it shares a cable with almost everything else in the house. It also adds a clock and alarm, which turns it into a bedside radio rather than a portable you carry to the bedroom. One thing goes: the 3.5 mm aux input is no longer fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"editorial-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA day and night radio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clock updates itself automatically from DAB or FM, so it is right after a power cut and right after the clocks change. The alarm can wake you to a specific preset station or a buzzer, and there is a snooze. At the other end of the day a sleep timer runs from 15 to 120 minutes, and display brightness is adjustable, which matters when the radio is sitting a metre from your face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"editorial-section wide\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwenty hours away from a socket\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2600 mAh lithium-ion cell inside the Petite 2 is rated at approximately 20 hours from a full charge, which is the difference between a radio you plan around and one you simply pick up. A full charge takes roughly six hours at 500 mA over the supplied USB-C lead, so an overnight top-up covers a week of use. Being USB-C, the same charger that handles your phone will do.
