Grace Allegro

Top Review Shop has reviewed the Grace Digital Allegro and found it to be a promising device that suffers from a “frustrating user interface”.

“The tiny monochrome 4-line display that can’t be read more than a few feet away, coupled with the unbearable text entry and menu layout scheme, will test the patience of even the most forgiving users.”

“For the $170 price tag, we deserve a device that is much easier to use and there are certainly more user-friendly options out on the market to enjoy portable internet radio.”

With a featureset that does not mark it out from the crowd, the Allegro would be relying on subtleties to succeed, but according to Top Review Shop, it doesn’t quite make it.
