If I were only to rate the hardware here, I would give the product 5 stars. It's slim and a good size for a bedside unit. The speakers sound ok. The watch display is slim, minimalist and sexy. The brushed metal buttons give a pleasant click when pressed. However, the night light is rather weak. You could probably use it to find a pair of glasses on the bedside table when you wake up in the middle of the night and a different light is blinding you, but that's where it stops being useful. Basically I didn't want to use it to listen to music but to have a physical clock display and a physical snooze button that can be pressed for an alarm on my phone. In theory, Fidelio is capable of doing this, but you'll need to use the Fidelio app (now DockStudio). This app (if it works) offers a lot of cool features: Bluetooth time sync between your watch and phone; the ability to play music via Bluetooth through the speakers of the docking station; and the ability to press the physical snooze button to snooze an alarm in the app. However, the app is terrible. On-screen graphics overwrite each other without being cleaned up, causing button clutter. I still can't get it to play music as an alarm and I'm forced to use the "bells" sound. The app looks ugly on a phone with a higher resolution screen and chooses pixelated clock wallpapers that you can't change. Also, it often freezes (which means any alarms set in it will NOT go off, as it has to be running to set off an alarm) and eats up memory like crazy. However, if you don't fancy the idea of using a physical snooze button, you can just use the speakers as a Bluetooth audio device for other alarm clock apps or other music playing apps, and they'll work just fine. You can't use the physical snooze button, but your phone's screen is literally 1 inch from the button, so there's not much of a difference. DockStudio app. At least the hardware is good, and there's always a chance the software could be upgraded or updated by someone other than the boss's nephew, who's a summer intern, or someone who worked on this awful thing.
