Charming mid-century design meets cutting-edge streaming tech, with the Philips The Janet XL.

Retro radio that gives you more
Celebrating over a century of audio, the Philips The Janet XL has smooth retro design and heritage badging to reflect Philips’s design past masters. The room-friendly styling is matched by warm and richly-balanced sound, with more than a twist of modern day detail and bass punch. When it comes to features, Bluetooth, Auracast, Internet radio, DAB+ and FM deliver everything you need for multi-source music and podcast entertainment.

Warm, naturally-balanced sound
Retro on the outside, but thoroughly modern sounding, The Janet XL easily cuts through the background noise of a busy household. Featuring a two-way speaker system, there’s plenty of top-end detail to balance the warm, natural mid-range. Twin passive radiators and Bass+ technology deliver a richly-balanced and smoothly integrated bottom-end.

Access a world of radio
Connect to your wi-fi hub and enjoy a world of radio and podcasts. With thousands of stations and podcasts available, the choice is near-limitless. The intuitive display makes it easy to find what you’re looking for. Once you’ve discovered your favourites, you can store them in presets, across all radio formats.

DAB+ and FM radio
As well as Internet radio, The Janet XL also features DAB+ and FM tuners. DAB+ introduces a wide range of stations that aren’t available on FM, such as the ever-popular BBC 6 Music, 5 Sports Extra, 4 Extra and many more. For local stations or areas with poor DAB reception, there’s also an FM tuner built in.

Multi-point Bluetooth and USB-C connectivity
Compatible with the latest Bluetooth 6.0 tech, The Jannet XL links seamlessly and efficiently with two devices at once – perfect if you need to switch between a phone and laptop. You can also connect a device via USB-C, which is ideal for simultaneous device playback and charging.

Multi-speaker streaming with Auracast
Compatible with Auracast, The Janet XL lets you stream to multiple speakers at once. Perfect for letting others hear your playlist or gaming with friends, Auracast lets you share the fun.

Built for any room in the home
Water resistant to the IPX-5 standard, The Janet XL is ideal for use in kitchens and bathrooms, as well as any other room in your home. If it gets splashed from water in the sink or immersed in a steamy bathroom, it’ll simply play on, hassle-free.

Radio any time, any place
For true portability, The Janet XL comes with a replaceable lithium-ion rechargeable battery. With up to 18 hours playback time, there’s ample time for radio outdoors or in any room in the house. Charging is via USB-C and takes around 3.5 hours to complete.

Keep on track with onboard timer functions
Equipped with a range of timer functions, The Janet XL is ideal for the kitchen, bedroom, home office or anywhere else where you need to keep a track on time. A sleep timer controls how long the radio plays for and a kitchen timer lets you cook to perfection.
