Great looking alarm clock, not the clearest wireless signal

I've found that I use my phone in bed too much, but I would justify it because my phone was my alarm clock. So I finally decided to get a good old clock radio like the ones I had 20 years ago. I went with this one almost exclusively because I think it looks cool and you can rarely go wrong with Sony. The alarm clock works great and is easy to set up and make sure it works. My only problem is that the radio signal is not that good. I get a lot of noise, and no matter how I position it, the noise

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Crumpled

Display dimmer is the best feature

I have bought and returned many watches because the watch sits on my bedside table inches from my face and the display was so bright it kept me awake . The darkest setting on this watch is still bright, but with my eyes closed, the orange numbers don't bother me at all. I have 2 problems: First, even though it comes with a battery, the battery was dead. (I returned the first watch but then when the same thing happened with the second one I decided to just buy a pack of lithium batteries which…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Not sure

Classic Sony cube.

Looks like old stock and the backup battery in mine was DOA. The 2032 battery is easy to swap out, so no big deal. This is the single alarm version and loves the simple design and obvious buttons that you can figure out even if you're out of your mind in the morning. Soft alarm or radio function. It's not a boombox so don't expect a loud sound, but it will wake you up. EDIT: The watch has now been in use for about 3 months and I have downgraded my rating from 5 to 3 stars; Some of the LED…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • High price

Yellow numbers don't interfere with sleep

This alarm clock is one of the rare ones with a yellow display. Blue and white light can affect our ability to sleep well and I find red stimulating (red light is just taste, blue is physiology). The watch works well enough and is attractive enough. Although, here are a few things I'd like to improve. 1) I would like the reset button to beep when pressed, this helps prevent pressing the button while sleeping without knowing it. 2) While these hours are good for circadian sleep health, they…

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Something to add
