Description of Sony ICFC1TBLACK Alarm Clock Radio
- It picks up radio stations well, easy to use, easy to set up. There is a snooze function when you press the corresponding button.
- Could be with two speakers, and stereo. It's a pity the tuner is not digital, but analog. Quiet alarm clock, if you select the wake-up function, not the radio, but a simple "beep".
- Good design, easy operation, bright display.
- Terrible speaker design - always on and not shielded.
- Aesthetic design and convenient, thoughtful control of all modes separate buttons, even by touch backlighting and transferring the alarm for a period of 10 to 60 minutes in increments of 10, depending on the number of presses on the large key. Don't accidentally click on others! ANALOGUE wheels for radio and volume adjustment, very nice after the already boring push-button adjustments. An excellent indicator with an optimal digit size and a pleasant orange-yellow backlight with three brightness levels. It can be seen from anywhere, but in the dark it does not hurt the eyes. Time in 24 hour format. Date day-month-year are also present. Even there is a manual transition on a separate button for summer time. We, in 2022, are now irrelevant already :) Radio reception is very good! There are FM and AM bands. Classic transformer built-in power supply! This is rare, but thanks to Sony engineers for it in this particular case. For, unlike pulse converters, such a source does not give high-frequency interference, which means that for radio it is possible to make the sensitivity higher and not hear any parasitic overtones. High-quality sound, albeit with minimal, but still readable bass, from very low, for falling asleep, volume, to decent for daytime listening. Battery backup (included) in case of a power outage - the clock and alarm settings will not be reset, which means you will not oversleep. Pleasant, gradually increasing in volume and frequency of repetitions, the signal of the alarm clock itself. The alarm clock rings for about an hour if you do not press any buttons. You can set the radio as an alarm signal. There is a timer to turn off - 15-30-60-90 minutes.
- Design, build quality, functionality
- Picks up mobile signals
- Sony badge
- Very, very dim indicator. Okay, the numbers are small, but at the maximum value of BRIGHTNESS nothing can be seen. Silent alarm buzzer. Almost inaudible.
- A good, strict design, the radio catches perfectly, an understandable setting, the sound of the speaker is loud and clear. Liked the form factor.
- No calendar, setting alarm options for weekdays and weekends.
