- Nice big display, with blue digits, instead of usual red ones. - External audio input for your mp3 player. - Digital tuner with radio stations. - Two independent alarms. - Relatively cheap compared to other projection alarm clocks The bad: - Display too bright, and no way to make it dimmer - Can't rotate projection display - Can't focus projection display - Have to set time on projection display separately - CAN'T ADJUST VOLUME OF THE ALARM I wish I knew you can't adjust volume of the alarm before I purchased the clock, because it's a deal breaker for me.

This review is from: jWin JL365 Dual Alarm Clock with Projection and AM/FM Radio (Black) (Electronics) Clock is with WHITE LED instead of blue as the picture shows.

If you can live with them, then ok, otherwise look else where. Here are the short comings that I experienced with this product:
[1] A couple of the LED segments on the projector do not work, or only work intermittently. (this is a very common defect with this product) [2] Main LCD display is not blue, but more white. Apart from these defects, the unit seems to function as per design. The digital tuning makes it easy to find the exact radio station that you want, the reception on the radio is pretty good. The overall design of ths unit is modern and attractive, so at least now you can make an informed decision, and not raise your expectations too high. Note: This unit requires 2 and not 3 AAA batteries as stated in the product description. |
