Review on ⏰ Emerson SmartSet Alarm Clock Radio with Bluetooth Speaker, Charging Station and Dual USB Ports for iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Tablets - ER100102 by Brandon Whiteman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

No option to disable Daylight Saving Time

Seems to be a good watch and has all the features I need. Unfortunately, the "SmartSet" code used by Emerson isn't as smart as it sounds. Daylight Saving Time is fully automatic, whether you like it or not. They didn't think to add a few lines of code to give users the option to turn off this feature if you live somewhere that doesn't use daylight saving time, such as United Kingdom. in Arizona. Of course you can use the manual time, but every time the power goes out it has to be reset manually, completely eliminating the self-setting clock function that people are looking for. I've heard a debate about disabling states. Summertime. I'd be ashamed to modify a $25 alarm clock just for lack of foresight and a few lines of code. i will return it I was hoping to support an American company, but now I have to see if the Chinese engineers were a bit smarter or not. Boo Emerson!
