There's a new radio star in town, and it goes by the name of Pure Sensia

If anyone knows how to make radios it’s Pure. So in its infinite wisdom it’s decided to jump on the social networking bandwagon by bringing Facebook and Twitter direct to your radio via touchscreen. Oh yes. There’s a new radio star in town, and it goes by the name of Pure Sensia.

The Pure Sensia, with its bumble bee styling, has a 5.7-inch, 640×480-pixel touchscreen, from which you can control volume, alarms, and settings. It’s one of the cleverest radios we’ve seen in a while. But the Sensia’s party piece is its social networking skills.

The Sensia has a menu of widgets that will let you flick through snaps, check out the weather, but more importantly keep abreast of what’s going down on Facebook and the latest tweets on Twitter.

Lest we forget, the Sensia’s also a radio. And that means DAB and FM tuners. But you can also stream tunes from your computer thanks to the bods at Pure kitting it out with Wi-Fi.

On sale in October, the Pure Sensia will cost £250. We suggest you snap one up. You know it makes Sensia. Ha ha, HA!
