Digital camera reviews of iHome IH9 Speaker System and Alarm Clock for iPod (Black)
Digital camera Review: Very Very Good Clock Radio for iPhone 3G - only one small complaint
Summary: 4 Stars
I do really like this clock radio a lot. I have had it for about 5 days now, and I've had no big problems. I'm using it with an iPhone 3G, and I do not have to put it in airplane mode (although every once in a while, when I dock it, depending on the app I'm in, it will ask me to put it in that mode. I just pull it off and reattach.)
I think the sound is great, and I really enjoy being able to listen to AOL Radio and Pandora through speakers (although not for the alarm function, which launches iTunes). I actually wanted this type of radio so I could use the Ambiance app to fall asleep. I was afraid that the clock would use whatever I was last listening to for the alarm, so I was happy to learn I could use Ambiance and the alarm would go back to my music.
VERY easy to program the alarms, which is fantastic. Giant numbers so you can see the time from all the way across the room. The dimmer actually dims it so that you don't feel like you're sleeping on the Vegas strip. Battery backup (a huge plus for me). All in all, a great little product.
My one small complaint (and I have to figure out if it's user error) is that the alarm volume is whatever the volume was the last time you used it. Well, when I'm trying to fall asleep (or I'm in bed reading) I do not put the volume very high. That means when I wake up, the music isn't all that loud. So far I haven't slept through it, but this morning it was a little TOO subtle. And because the volume is low, it's not waking my husband at all.
I'll have to give it a test in sleep mode.
