FM/AM Clock Radio - White

I was so sad to part with my 40 year old Sony digicube and was pleasantly surprised that it was still being made. The new model is very neat, double brightness and seems to get good reception. Only criticism is that the volume control is not particularly easy to use and the buttons are in slightly strange places. You have to press the alarm reset to turn the radio off rather than depressing the radio button again. But its a great replacement.

I like it! I had the earlier version of this for about 25 years (which was a little bit bigger and heavier) until it finally bit the dust, so I was pleased to see Sony had produced a newer version and with extra functions. Open the box, plug it in and it finds the right time for you. Display is bright orange and easy to read. The instructions to set the alarm and radio are easy to follow and understand too. As I am now a pensioner and not working I haven't as yet had reason to use the alarm function but it appears to be working fine and true to sony standards the radio is remarkably clear for something so cheap. I have no need for the snooze timer or the variable brightness function but it has both if you need them. I will put it through its paces in the coming weeks but so far I've only had it 3 days before being asked to review it but so far I am more than happy with it. I have no hesitation in recommending this as it has everything you could possibly want from an alarm clock and more!!!!

I had my original one for forty years (that's right!) until it suddenly stopped working. I was excited at the prospect of getting this one to replace it, but unfortunately, it has turned into a disappointment due to a constant low hum that has given me a headache and made my ears ring a little. Unfortunately, I think this is the case with a lot of modern Sony devices because my newer boombox, again from Sony, does the same thing. In every other way, this is a great clock radio and I would have hoped to have it for another several decades, but I am returning it. It's not as easy to set as my previous one because the knobs are on different sides of the cube, but I definitely appreciated the large font at night because I was able to see it very clearly with my short-sightedness, unlike my previous one at which I had to squint and even then sometimes I didn't get the time right.

Very happy with this radio alarm clock. It's small and compact and (in my opinion) looks very nice. There are 3 different dimness settings for the screen. The alarm slowly works up to the volume that you've chosen, so you aren't awoken too suddenly. It is a simple radio alarm - so if you are looking for a speaker or charger for your phone this is not for you. People have spoken about problems with 'static' from the radio if it's too close to your phone. This will be a problem if you keep your phone on the same bedside table as the radio, but I keep my phone on the other side of the bed and this hasn't been an issue at all.

Don’t buy - I love Sony products, but this is very poor quality and who knows how it passed a QA check. It hums fairly loudly, presume due to the 50hz power adaptor / internal capacitor. Kept me awake, gave me a sore head and hence not much use for anything, let alone a bedside clock.

Does what it says. Plays radio. Tells time. Sets alarms. Old school and easy. Classic for a reason

The clock is reliable, nice modern design and is easy to use. However I find it disappointing that in this day and age it still has a flimsy little cable hanging out it's back as an antenna. I also find it quite hard to find the right radio programme plus adjust it so acurate that it doesn't 'crackle' as it has no accurate display of the numbers. It's great that you can dim the display however its the same button you use for snooze so it changes the light setting every time. It's a small thing but I find it a bit irritating. I'd also liked the radio to start on a quite setting and graduately increase the volume...I probably should have checked that before though. All in all it is small and easy to use but unfortunately I find it just not thought through enough when it comes to the buttons and too simplistic-it feels like this radio can do less than the one I had as a kid. A real shame...

clock radio , it does what it says on the tin

Good quality alarm clock. Purchased for the second time. Display is excellent. Sound is very good. Only price is high. First purchased at 2199 now for second purchase paid 3199. If calculate at current dollar rate then price should not be more than 2599.

Mine is faulty.. Buzz's all the time.. loses the radio station all the time.. very annoying

El reloj funciona de maravilla, facil de programar. La unica pega que podria ponerle es que el boton de cortar la alarma es muy pequeño y algo dificil de encontrar cuando estas medio dormido, por otra parte asi te obliga despertar si o si para poder buscarlo y parar la alarma.

Wish the specs had explained that it’s not suited to Australian power outlets. I’ll have to turn the house upside down to find an old converter I have or return it at my expense. Stupid me figured being on Amazon Oz site I would be purchasing a suitable product. Ugh!

Viene con clavija inglesa, no sirve para los enchufes en España, por lo menos podría indicarlo en la descripción. La devolución me ha costado 18€. Muy mal Amazon una reseña, un aviso, un algo, me hubiera ahorrado el importe de devolverlo, si compro en la página española, mi dirección está en España no sé porqué vendéis ésto.
