Display too small for me.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned this because the display was too small. Love the google assist features, so replaced with a Google Nest and I just ask for the time instead. Would work great if you don't need a large display of time.

Looks great, always on weather is super convenient
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked this more than I thought I would. It looks sleek, the weather always showing is super convenient, and the usb outlet makes for a convenient outlet for my smartwatch. Sound quality isn"t great, but given the price I think it's as expected.

Good enough!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has been working well so far. I expected a few more customization options like changing the clock color, back light color, and internal temperature sensor. But at this price point from Lenovo, it's more unlikely anyways. I hope it lasts long.

Great clock + smart speaker. Little customization.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really liked the idea of this clock giving only the "essentials". My placement of it across a room made it too small and difficult to read at night. I also wish it was possible to turn off everything except the time during certain hours (night).

Posted .Hi there, The Lenovo Smart Clock Essential should automatically adjust in the dark to only display the time. If your device isn't functioning in this manner please power cycle the device by unplugging it for 1-2 minutes. Plugging it back in, and allowing it to power on. If the issue remains please perform a factory reset by holding down the “Volume + and – ” buttons on top of your device for 8 Seconds. If the issue persists, please contact our customer support team at 866-426-0911

How to save a life....
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing. Gave to my son-in-law who had a stroke for the large number glowing display. Didn't know it was a Google thing, now he can call us on it if he has needs help with just voice activation. Amazing for someone who falls and can't get up on there own.

Nice for small area
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this clock and the next level up with color and touch screen. I would recommend paying a little more for the color and touch screen. I am trying to connect it to my Nest doorbell and to date have not been able to do it.

Works well, not easy to set up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well as a clock and outside temp monitor. Not exactly easy to set up, but after several tries, it connected to my wireless network and correctly displayed time and temp. Still not connected to Google but that's probably for the best.

Great clock
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Google smart clock is a game changer. I never thought I would be one that would want voice controlled lights etc but times have changed and the pricing has come down on all smart devices since I originally looked. No complaints

As a digital clock, it's works well.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for the sole purpose of being a digital clock right next to my PC. With that use case, it works as intended. Didn't care to use it for voice commands, which it is terrible at, since I have Google Nest Minis/Hubs for that.

great standalone digital clock
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.exactly what its supposed to be, a smart digital alarm clock- only issue is that it conflicts with a google assistant in the same room with smart lights, where asking for lights on or off will turn on the actual light on the clock

Nice alarm clock
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The display is very clear with big contrast you can see far away. Although it ends up returning it for the upgraded color touch-screen one, still recommend it for very straightforward and easy to use.

Great Clock with Google Assistant
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice simple clock. Screen tells you the time and weather. It works well with other google/nest speakers. Only downside is the night light comes on after every alarm. I still haven't figured out how to turn off that feature

Out with the old in with the new
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Im so happy I bought this clock. I got it for my bathroom. I had an old clock radio - not that easy to see and bad reception on the music stations. Now I can see the time very easily and all I have to do is ask and I get any music I want. So easy!
