    An expensive alarm clock. Buyer Beware.

    We bought a couple of these thinking it would work as well as the Google nest hub, but we were wrong. This google assistant has a hearing and comprehension problem, especially with music. Plays something completely unrelated to your request. It's frustrating and customer service is no help. These are in storage now.

      We are sorry to hear you are experiencing WIFI connectivity issues with your Lenovo Smart Clock Essential. We recommend switching between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands of your router. In some instances overlap from other wireless devices can cause this issue. To do this please ensure your device is within good range of your router. Then please perform a factory reset on the device by holding down the “Volume + and – ” buttons on top of your device for 8 Seconds. During setup please select a different band *Either 2.4 Ghz or 5 Ghz when connecting to your WiFi Network. Lastly please reset your model and router by powering them down for 20 seconds then back on again. If the issue persists, please contact our customer support team at 866-426-0911 Lenovo

    Great little clock. Got this on sale and works great. Audio qyality is good enough for an alarm clock and listening on low levels. Bass isn't very good but my only real complaint is that the minimum volume isn't low enough. When I'm listening in my office I want it a bit quieter for some background music. I find the lowest volume isn't quite low enough. I just use it mainly as a smart speaker and clock. I haven't used the alarm functions yet.

      Hi! Thanks for choosing the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential. We are pleased to hear the features, design, and performance of the Smart Clock Essential is working out so well for you. We appreciate your feedback as we are always looking for ways to improve our Smart Devices. Try using the voice command, "Okay google volume 1%" to see if that can get the audio a little lower than using the volume slider on your smart phone or tablet, or the volume buttons on the device itself.

    This is a nice little alarm clock with a clean display. I like the form factor. I was expecting I could control this clock like a phone alarm but this is not possible (the clock shows up as a Speaker, not a Clock, in Android). Instructions are a Q&A session at the Lenovo site. The included leaflet covers the basics.
