I should also report although you probably assumed this, that yes it does charge the latest generation of iPods and iPhones that charge over the USB pin. The big time display is very readable from across the room. All you have to adjust is your Time Zone. As a matter of fact it comes already factory set to EST.
The Automatic Daylight Savings Time Adjust and backup battery are nice too. So if you like to wake up to the sound of your kids or other loved ones, just have them speak into the built-in mic and you're all set. Speaking of iPod/iPhone support the dock itself is a standard universal dock so your existing and future inserts should work just fine.įun Wake-up is a cool feature that let's you record up to 3 of your own alarms. Another really nice feature is while it can't transfer the photos directly from your iPhone/iPod (huh?), it can playback your photos, videos and movies. I really like the fact that you can sleep the display at night, yet with one button see what time it is without bringing the brightness all the way back up (blinding level). I also like the fact that it has a built-in memory so that you can load music, video and pictures on it without having to have your iPod or iPhone connected to view them/play them back. I like the dual alarm feature as well and the fact that either alarm can be set to any one of the many sources such as radio, iPod, or the nature sounds. It's not designed to be a stereo replacement, so the sound output is adequate. I think it's just big enough for what it does. Rather than spending a lot of time trying to describe it, here's a video I recorded:
This clock radio, iPod dock has a nice big 7" display. OK, that's it.Ī couple of months back I saw a pre-announcement that Sony was coming out with an Alarm Clock that had a built-in iPod/iPhone dock – YAWN! I know, who cares right? There are so many options out there, what's Sony going to bring to the table? Well there was one thing that got my attention and that's the built-in digital picture frame. Ahhh, that's better! Wait, I forgot Dream Machine. How's that for the longest product name in history? Oops, I forgot to stick in the model number: ICF-CL75iP.
