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
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.

It’s isn’t as big and bulky as I thought it would be. It works great with my iPhone X. Has different alarm tones and BT connectivity for music. Also has a USB port for my Apple Watch so one less cord on my outlet.

I really like this item although for the price it still would have been nice to have a built-in radio I know I can connect my cell phone with Bluetooth and all that but for the convenience of getting local news especially of disasters or whatever it still would be comforting to have that feature. That being said design is very modern which I really like and the speakers are great. I believe it's a good value and most importantly I feel very comfortable with it

Best Clock Yet

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
First off let me say I am extremely picky about what I buy. That being said, this is an amazing buy! I originally had the iHome orb that changed colors for almost a year and the snooze for the alarm ended up being too close to the rest of the buttons. But due to recently upgrading to the Note 8, I decided it was time to get upgrade my clock as well. I was skeptical at first that the Qi charging wouldn't work with the case on my phone. I was proven pleasantly wrong. I'll admit it takes putting it properly on the Qi portion, and due to not seeing where i put it one night i didn't get a charge, but it has yet to fail if i put it on properly.
Another good point is that all the buttons are directly on the front and easier to see and use. Not once have I hit the wrong button!
All in all, it was definitely worth my investment! I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a clock and a charger and also likes to save space.

I have been looking for this iHome model for quite sometime. I like is model because the clock display has LARGE NUMBERS on it. I am visually impaired and the large display is great for me. I also like it because it is also Bluetooth enabled and I use it to play music from my iPhone and iPad.

And it is very convenient to charge my iPhone X... just place it on top of the machine and it charges automatically!

I am impressed with the iHome alarm clock. The alarm tones gently wake you up, unlike the really loud obnoxious tones from years past. I love the fact that it charges my iPhone as well. It charges the Mophie charging case the phone is in which is a great feature. It is a bit pricey in my opinion, but everything seems to be these days.

I needed a replacement bedside device and I have a QI capable phone. This works, It uses the phone for media (BT) and charges the phone either through QI or USB. It also has the capability for an AUX-IN stereo in connection. Nice bit, if the power fails the phone is still a backup alarm system.
It's not a portable, it's not a battery. But it does what it does (QI, BT, Clock, etc) very, very well. Sounds nice, also.

We are happy to hear that you like the unit. The Apple Watch Series 3 appears to charge only on certain Qi wireless chargers. This is an update that need to be done on Apple's end as iHome is Apple Certified.

I hardly give 5 starts to a product but this one deserve it. Great Sounds quality, you can wake up with your music or with the default alarm sounds. One of things I like about this alarm other than the wireless Charging is that the screen is dimmable and comes with a USB port to charger your watch or any other devices.

I got this clock radio charger for my wife, and first off, it looks very cool. Second, It is very convenient because it reduces the amount of cables around the house with the wireless charging. And last, the Bluetooth speaker sounds amazing and very easy to use.

Works well for wireless charging.
8plus doesn’t charge all the way, I think it’s the phone not the product. XSmax charges fine to 100%.
A little bulky, takes up lots of nightstand space.
Light up buttons are handy for the nighttime.
Can charge my Iwatch at the same time via usb.
Never really had the need for the speakers or alarm.

Overall the iHome dual alarm clock with wireless charging is good for the price since it acts as your alarm clock and your phones wireless charging receiver. The only two things I would take away or the LCD is a little dim even at its brightest and the wireless receiver is a bit finicky. You will set your phone on top the night before thinking it's on there correctly but wake up to about 7% battery life. If it moves even slightly off center then it'll start charging and sometimes even when you don't move it it stops charging. Once you know where to place your phone on the wireless receiver it'll happen a lot less. The USB slot in back is a nice feature and so is it's Bluetooth capability. Overall I would recommend this product for its positives which outweigh its negatives
