This was a Christmas gift and what a great combo Alarm clock and wireless charger, The charger works great but now less than 2 months later the Clock display has faded to just about black. Of course out of the Best Buy return period. Now to figure out if the iHome has a warranty. Just a final note it's not the dimmer feature not working that doesn't change a thing

The clock looks great and has pretty decent speakers. I connect my phone via Bluetooth and listen to iheardradio stations (note it doesn't have an am/fm connection). I haven't tried the wireless charger yet but can't wait. There's also a usb port built-in at the back. There's a dimming control for the display at night although I wish it would auto-dim to cut the blue light down. Also, my phone doesn't auto connect to the Bluetooth for some reason. although this maybe some mysterious setting that's missing on my phone. But overall pleased with the purchase.

I love this device, does everything it says on the description. The clock/alarm function is perfect for us. The brightness of the display is adjustable and the dim is just the right amount of dim at night, not so bright that it will bother me and I like sleeping with all lights off. The alarm volume goes from really soft to really loud progressively in a reasonable period so you can turn it off or snooze it before it wakes the whole household. The Bluetooth speaker function works well and the sound quality is good, not as good as a Bose when turned all the way up, but still relatively good. The Qi charging is very useful as I just put my iPhone X on it and it charges very fast. My husband has an otter box case on his iPhone X and it works just fine. He has a magnet for his phone holder in the car and he had to take the magnet off though or it won’t charge. I have to put the phone a certain way on the clock otherwise it won’t charge but it’s a minor deal for me. Aligning the phone on top of the clock is logical anyway if you don’t want your phone to drop easily off to the floor. Overall this is an excellent buy.
