Review on iLuv Time Shaker 6Q: Fast Qi-Certified Wireless Charging Alarm Clock with Vibration Shaker, Bluetooth Speakers, FM Radio, and USB Charging Port by Nate Jenkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Repeated only once for each alarm.

The watch is great and the shaker literally wakes the dead. It's very full featured, the display is very easy to read and the watch has an arduous learning curve. Pretty easy to navigate the setup. However, there are several disadvantages. Two large and several small. The first. For me the biggest downside is that the snooze function only works ONCE for each alarm. Once you press the snooze button, the alarm will sound again and never again. This forces you to set both alarms if you want to nap more than once. (If I do something wrong, I hope the manufacturer will correct me.) For me, this is a big disadvantage. I want to be able to take as many naps as I want. Second. The backup battery only stores your alarm settings. In the event of a power failure, THE CLOCK WILL NOT WORK. I think the backup battery here is false advertising. The clock turns off in the event of a power failure, but you don't have to set the alarm again. (Big oops. What saves you? One minute? You still lose your job if you think your alarm will go off when the power goes out.) Another downside: The clock face is still pretty bright at its darkest, if yours eyes are fully adjusted. For some it may seem too bright. Blackout strips are a good tool. Finally, the alarm sound could have been a little louder. I'm sure this will wake up most people. super deaf? Probably no. The Bluetooth speaker is sufficient, not audiophile quality, but not bad either. Bluetooth connects pretty well and stays connected even when charging wirelessly. The Qi charger works great for larger phones too. The additional USB charging port is convenient and charges large devices well enough. Overall I would buy it again but these flaws really need to be written out here. Hope this review helps someone!
