You can’t really ask for more than an item working, looking as it did in the product ad and having the features you expect. And this has.One small note - not important to me because I’m using it plugged into the mains power, but on battery power it’s very dim, and designed that way, as otherwise the 2 AA batteries would be out within hours.Again it said so in the description so no surprise. It’s well-designed, made from slightly nicer than usual materials and above all looks good, and actually tells the time pretty accurately.

I bought this as a desk clock. It looks good in orange, has a bright display, and is easy to set up. It also has a temperature setting which can toggle between C and F.The build quality is poor (mine has something rattling around inside) and feels very cheaply made.The display is adjustable, but doesn't work on mine. The supplied power lead is very short and requires a USB plug to power it. It also requires 3 AAA batteries to retain the settings in a power outage. (It's too dim to see the display though).I would also have liked to see the date on the same screen as the time, rather than having to press the mode button.Overall I'm happy enough, but would have been happier at around £25, and due to the faulty display dimmer it will be returned for replacement.Update: I now have the replacement clock and all functions work correctly including dimmer and night settings. I'll keep my rating at 4 stars as I would rather have the date on the main screen, than the temperature which is a bit gimmicky.

Great looking. My only criticism is that it could do with having a weighted base, or simply be heavier to make it stable.

I loved this clock so much that I bought a second one for work!

It's all in the title. If something like this cannot even last 8 weeks then there is obviously a problem. Even the lettuce that outlasted the Liz Truss government lasted longer. If you need any more convincing not to buy it, read the other reviews!!

looks ok, but alarm is quiet and it stays on for 1 min only. not recommended.

Looks very nice. Neat little clock. Easy to set.

Purchased this for my husband and after a month the dimmer button stopped working. It’s now unusable at night because it’s too bright. Both the manufacturer and amazon will now help. Avoid!!

Very nice, well-made clock that works well. We've owned other digital alarm clocks from Amazon that proved to be junk. The buttons did not work reliably, features were missing, etc.This clock works well and has nice features. You can put it in "Night" mode and it will turn down the brightness of the display in the evening and back up in the morning. You get to program the time it is turned down and turns up again. Otherwise, you can manually adjust the brightness in three levels, low, medium and high. The brightness levels are just right either in manual or Night mode. The only improvements are: 1) you should get an AC powered usb power module for the price of the clock (you only get a special proprietary power cable that powers off usb); and 2) the instructions are a bit scattered and disorganized. You will find certain features scattered through the instructions and you have to read them top to bottom a couple of times to figure out how to do things - like program the Night mode times. You get a hard copy of the instructions with the clock, but I did not find a pdf of the manual on Newgate's US website. ( I like to save a pdf copy of manuals on my laptop for future reference.) I did come across Newgate's UK website, where a pdf of the instructions were available to download. The power cable uses the old USB A style plug, so maybe you have an old phone charger brick sitting in a drawer that could be used to power the clock.

Heel plastic en goedkoop materiaal. LCD bij wat fellere stand veel lichtlek in het “zwart”. Stekker valt er makkelijk uit.Op een afstandje oogt het geinig, dat wel. Tijd, datum en temperatuurweergave.

L'oggetto è arrivato puntualmente e in un imballo tutto sommato idoneo. Dal punto di vista estetico si presenta bene, la linea ricorda quella di certe tv portatili degli anni '70-'80. Forse la plastica è un po' leggera ma il poco peso può essere un pregio specie se viene collocato su una mensola. Il display è ben visibile anche da non illuminato e le impostazioni sono piuttosto intuitive (istruzioni solo in inglese). La luminosità del display si può regolare soltanto collegando la sveglia ad una presa di corrente tramite il cavo usb in dotazione (serve un alimentatore, va benissimo quello di un qualsiasi smartphone). Se l'orologio viene alimentato solo a batteria è possibile illuminare il display per 5 secondi premendo il pulsante Snooze (la luminosità resta quella di default). La sveglia suona gradualmente emettendo prima un "beep" al secondo che diventa più frequente finché non viene disattivata. Quando la sveglia suona il display non si illumina. Per disattivarla bisogna andare a tastoni ma la posizione dei pulsanti è piuttosto intuitiva. Se si preme lo Snooze l'allarme viene posticipato. Per disattivare l'allarme del tutto va premuto il pulsante campanello (accanto allo snooze). L'orologio va alimentato con 3 batterie AAA (non incluse) anche se viene collegato ad una presa di corrente. Nel complesso un buon prodotto.

Son design inspiré des réveil Seïko des 70s est joli.Simplement 3 bémols :1- pas de câble CC sur secteur mais un cable CC/USB2- Le orange est un peu clair et moins "intense" comparé à la photo3- Le plastique semble assez fragile. Je crains qu il ne résiste mal à des éventuelles chutes d'une table de chevet

Preis/ Leistung/Qualität perfekt.
