Clock radio
Mindee S.✓ Verified Purchase•July 15, 2023
I really like the clock, but the radio is awful. Maybe I just have really bad reception, but it's just a lot of static.
The clock is fine. The thermometer is not.

I like the clock. I like the projection. I've not had any reason to try the radio or alarm. The temperature always passively reads 75°F. If I hold the sensor in my hand for awhile, I can get it to go up. Perhaps this is the wrong sort of temperature probe?
If you need a clock that projects clearly on the wall or ceiling, this does the trick. It's bright. It's clear. (The included photo is in a room that is not completely dark and the time is visible, though my phone's camera may be improving it a bit here)
The USB port on the back is useful, though I wish it was on the side.

Perfect for waking you up in the morning

I love this clock. The alarm is really loud and it actually wakes me up. It's not just an annoying alarm you can set it to a certain station on the radio and make that be your alarm. It also has the clock project onto your walls or ceiling.
Projection: win! Brightness: needs re-thunk'd. Overall: win!

This is our first projection clock and it's pretty awesome!
Brightness:
I am particularly sensitive to light at night, and keep my room as dark as possible -- I've been known to cover device LEDs with electrical tape (fans, device chargers, etc.), and this clock is no exception. While the blue display is very pretty, and does have several brightness levels, even at the darkest level, it's far too bright -- casting shadows across a ten foot room. The display does have an "Off" setting, leaving us with just the projection, but then a tiny (really bright) LED comes on. While I normally toss a piece of electrical tape over LEDs, this one is underneath the plastic front and sits back a half centimeter or so -- so to cover it completely, you have to cover a larger area, including some of the left-most digits, as well. We bought this for the projection ability, and have no plans to turn the main display on/off, so that's ok with us -- however, it was quite a design oversight (if someone wants the clock face off, it's most likely due to brightness issues... so... you really shouldn't put a tiny bright LED denoting the display is off in that case!).
The projection brightness is awesome. It's just bright enough to see in a semi-dark-plus room -- even after sunrise, as long as the curtains are shut, I can still make out the digits (though a bit rough). At night, it leaves the room absolutely dark, except for the light red digits displayed on the wall/ceiling -- totally awesome. The projection bit swivels, and does have a 180º flip so you're never with an "upside down" clock -- unless that's what you want... (that can be somewhat entertaining, with the wife!).
Other then that:
The USB charger is handy to have, though we don't use it as we have QI chargers that use 2.1 A inputs, where as far as I know, this clock USB only supplies 1 A -- not enough.
The clock has a 24 HR mode! -- which was an unexpected bonus! AM/PM is far overrated... heh. Anyways, it does display 00:00-09:59 without the leading zero -- that is, 0:00-9:59, as someone else pointed out. Doesn't bother me... I'm still over-enthusiastic that it had the 24 HR mode available!
The indoor thermometer is a neat addition, if not fruitless for us due to the fact we won't ever have the display on. The projection can display either the temperature -or- the time, but not both. The main display can display either the time, or cycle through the time, date, and temperature. One thing to note: the temperature wire is about 8", so... if your clock happened to be near a window, you could easily run it outside to have an "outdoor temperature" instead. We did test the thermometer for accuracy, and it seemed to be within 0.5ºF of several other thermometers... superb.
I can't comment on the alarm -- or nap mode, as we use our phones for that purpose... we like to choose our own music/sounds to rise to, of which the clock doesn't support. I can see using the "nap mode" (a nap buzzer will sound in 10-90 minutes) in a pinch, but unlikely.
Overall, we appreciate the projection aspect of this clock and plan on keeping it. In our first night alone, the projection saved us the headache of "is the alarm going to go off soon?" where we'd normally have to roll over and/or play with our overly-bright phones. If they fixed the brightness issue (read: removed the LED while off, or better yet, added even darker display levels), it would be a win-win-win!

Excellent alarm clock!
Radtrisha✓ Verified Purchase•May 28, 2023
Pretty decent alarm clock, so far. I've had this clock about a week now, replacing an older alarm clock that I couldn't stand because even the dim setting was too bright at night.
Pros:
1) Four dim settings, including OFF. Love the OFF setting! When off, there is only a *tiny* blue LED that glows to let you know the clock is still functioning. The display WILL turn back on again when the alarm sounds, and will turn back off when you hit the snooze button.
2) Independent dual alarms. Yes, you can set up two alarms, each with its own wake up time and alarm method (Buzz, AM radio, FM radio). If you choose the radio wake up method, each alarm can be set to a different radio station. Each alarm can also have it's own max volume.
3) AM and FM radio alarms ramp up to the max volume that you set for each. So no more waking up to a blaring alarm!
4) Battery backed up. If you lose power, don't worry. The settings are backed up by a battery. And.. .the alarm WILL STILL FUNCTION in battery mode. No more missing work due to a power failure!
5) Projection of time with 180 degree flip feature. Time will be projected anywhere from straight up to full forward, with the option of flipping the time 180 degrees (right side up or upside down).
6) Each alarm can be set for: weekdays only, weekends only, all week, or select one day. So no more forgetting to turn off your alarm to sleep in on weekends!
7) USB charging port on the back. Keep your phone or tablet charged during the night.
8) Projection can be turned on or off with the press of a button. Not sure of the life of the projection unit, but I turn it off during the day and back on before I go to bed.
9) Digital tuners. No more trying to find the sweet spot with the analog dial to get the clearest radio reception. This will set the exact frequency and guarantees you get the best reception possible.
10) Sleep timer. Various timer settings to fall asleep to music. Turns off the radio when timer expires.
11) Pretty compact. This unit is half as small as my last alarm clock, with many more features!
Cons:
1) Projection time can not be swiveled sideways. It only projects up or forward or anywhere in between.
2) The speakers aren't the greatest quality, so if you are using this as a daytime radio, buy something else. But for waking up, who cares?
3) Indoor temperature display is pretty pointless. Who cares what the inside temperature is? And there's a long temperature sensor wire that hangs off the back too, that's pointless if you don't care about indoor temperature. Get rid of the temperature and shave a few bucks off the cost of the product.
4) Not a deal breaker, but the snooze time is not adjustable. It's 9 minutes, period.
5) Snooze button requires a bit more pressure than I'm used to, but certainly not a deal breaker.
Overall, I love this alarm clock! The cons are very nit picky, but I listed them anyway. Having the time projected on the ceiling is probably the feature that I love the most, followed by the alarm volume ramping up to the max volume you program for each alarm.
