The best clock radio I’ve owned so far!
Recently, my clock radio, an Emerson SmartSet, decided to crap out on me after only five years or so. (The alarm function and radio stopped working, although, weirdly, the clock part still kept time, and on battery back-up, the alarm would still go off. I still can’t quite figure that one out.) I thought about trying to play around with the Emerson, to see if I could fix it, but I just didn’t feel up to it, so I went shopping and found this Magnasonic. I was really excited because it fit all the criteria I was looking for: it was a clock radio, not just an alarm clock; it had a dual alarm system; and the clock sets automatically as soon as it’s plugged in. Plus, it has two other features that are just plain nice to have: it has a sensor that registers the room temperature, and it projects the time onto the ceiling/wall so I don’t even have to raise my head from my pillow to see what time it is.I’ll admit, it took a bit of time for me to figure out how to work this clock radio, for the mere fact that it’s completely different from any I’ve owned previously. Not only because of the extra functions/features, but also because it’s so sleek and compact. I’m used to those bulky, slightly rectangular, slightly oblong radios that are at least half a foot long, half a foot wide, and as thick as bricks (with the really old ones almost weighing as much as bricks). This Magnasonic is almost tiny in comparison: it’s only 5 1/2 inches long, about the same measurement in height, and 3 1/2 inches deep. The biggest thing about it is the LCD screen up front. However, a brief perusal of the instructions showed that the Magnasonic is really user-friendly and once you figure out what each button is for and how to work them, setting the alarms and using all the functions is easy-peasy. As I pointed out, the clock part sets automatically as soon as you plug it in, so that’s one less thing to deal with; all you have to worry about is setting the time zone if you’re not in the default Eastern time zone. The dual alarms are set from one central button and you can not only set the time, but you’re given options as to how often the alarm will go off: all seven days of the week, Monday through Friday only, Saturday and Sunday only, or just one day of the week. Buttons on the back allow you to choose whether you want the alarms to go off as a buzzer or as music from the radio, and to turn one or both alarms off completely. There are all sorts of other details you can fiddle with such as setting the time and calender manually, setting the snooze function, setting the sleep function, and changing the display content. And then there’s the projection, which comes from a rotating arm on the left-hand side of the unit. The arm can be rotated into an almost horizontal position both front and back, and there’s a wheel at the top which focuses the projection–just turn the wheel until the display is clear and crisp. The display can also be flipped by 180 degrees for rear projection; just press another button to do so.Now, there are two “downsides” to this clock radio that I’ve found. One is that, because the time isn’t just a set of numbers on the front of the unit, but a full LCD screen with the time, room temp., and other info, the display is brighter than on a regular clock radio. However, there is a dimmer function to the front display, which helps, and also, because the time can be projected and therefore the front of the clock radio doesn’t need to face my bed, I simply turn the unit so that the barest sliver of the screen is visible from where I’m resting, allowing most of the glow to dissipate into the room. On the plus side, if I have to get up in the middle of the night, the glow helps me avoid any cat toys littering the floor between my bed and the bathroom. The second “downside” is, because the unit is so compact, there’s no room for any internal antennae for radio reception. So there are two thin external antennae to fiddle with, which, frankly, I haven’t had to deal with since my clock radio from the 80’s. However, neither of these “downsides” are really that bad (hence my use of quotation marks) or difficult to deal with, and, certainly, these two tiny, inconsequential details don’t detract one iota from this Magnasonic’s compact and functional nature.

Best Clock I’ve Ever Owned
I love this clock! It’s well made, and has to be the most high tech and easy to use (once you learn it) alarm clock I’ve ever seen. Alarm 1 doesn’t come in loud and obnoxious like traditional alarm clocks, instead it starts with several light tones, then faster tones, then even faster tones, then eventually a constant stream of tones. Alarm 2 just instantly hits you with the final stage until you turn it off or hit snooze. The snooze button and the power button are right next to each other so when you’re ready to fully awake you can just tap the small power button instead of snooze this time around (you can feel the difference, long button vs small round button). Also, at night before you sleep, you can hit the snooze button a few times to turn off the display light so it’s not shining in your face (lowest light is still rather bright) and rely on the projector for time or indoor temperature. When the alarm sounds the display also lights up to the brightest setting to assist in waking you, but goes back to what you had it set to once you hit snooze or off. Another great ease of use feature I like, is that once you have hit the power button the officially shut it up, you can just tap the power button again to listen to radio or an aux plugged in device. Radio is no high quality boom box but it gets plenty loud and stays very clear to enjoy what you’re listening to even at its loudest volume. I can pull and preset (save) all the major Chicago stations beautifully from Blue Island, IL. One of my favorite features is that straight out of the box all I needed to do is tell it my time-zone and everything (date, time, year) was set for good. Which means, who needs a backup battery? If the power goes out and comes back while you’re asleep, don’t worry, the clock will stay set to the right time… not sure if the alarm(s) will remain set though… I’ll have to check that out.Update 11/28/16:Still going strong! Though throughout the 2 years I’ve owned it I’ve noticed the time has started to go a little fast forcing me to set it back a few minutes every month or so, but still viewed as one of the most high tech and unique things in my apartment. I’m near sighted so I can’t see far away and while laying in bed without my glasses I can very easily see the time projected on my ceiling. Still one of my favorite household items and I can’t tell you how useful the dual alarm system is, especially since I can set them to only alarm on weekdays or one specific day. Works well for when I need to get up at a certain time on the weekend while still maintaining my weekday alarms. I still highly recommend purchasing this one!Update 6/24/20:Iâve had this clock over 5 years now, itâs still super cool and still prompting me to leave a review! Mind you I wear glasses, canât see things clearly far away. But at night, I can read the time perfectly clearly on my ceiling with my glasses off. Perfect for barely rolling over to check the time periodically. Not a single issue from this clock besides the occasional needed roll back of the time by a minute or two. Minor inconvenience, still worth 5 stars. Someone called it a complicated clock and gave it a bad review… well, yes itâs a little complex, but for good reason! Dual alarms, each one can be set for either every weekday or just one chosen day, radio, calendar, temperature, projector, aux jack, ability to adjust time backwards and forwards, none of that âmissed the number now I have to cycle through all of them againâ crap. Gonna be a little complex when you factor in all of that. If you donât want all of that, get a simpler clock for like 5 bucks. This is still hands down my favorite clock after 5 years!

Es un muy buen reloj, fácil de configurar, tiene 3 modos de brillo la pantalla

Lo compré para remplazar a mi Sony ICF-C1PJ que comenzó a tener falsos contactos con los botones y ya era imposible de operar; sólo me duró 2 años y medio. Pésima compra, pero me gustaba mucho la función de proyectar la hora en la pared, algo que este también hace por la mitad del precio y, además, tiene termómetro ambiental; básicamente hace todo (y más) que lo que mi anterior despertador hacÃa por menos de la mitad de precio. Leà alguna crÃtica por ahà sobre la cercanÃa de botones de apagado y snooze (lo cuál puede ser peligroso), pero creo que es exagerada. Es verdad que están juntos, pero el botón de snooze es algo asà como 5 veces más grande como para “confundirte”, aún estando muy dormido. La pantalla brilla en su totalidad, pero poniendo el ajuste más bajo, no molesta para nada durante la noche y suena suficientemente fuerte como para despertar a quien sea.

Amazing product. The projection is excellent. The FM radio is also good.

For the price, this is a pretty darn good alarm clock radio.First the cons:- The smooth shiny plastic gives it a sort of cheap appearance, but it seems durable enough.- Some of the reviewers complained that the speaker isn’t good quality. I’d say that’s not entirely accurate. The sound is quite clear also but somewhat penetrating. My complaint is with the volume levels that are available. You can select 0 for off, or 1-10 for loudness. The problem with 1 is that it’s too loud. 1 is the lowest volume level and yet it’s loud enough to be a 4 or 5. If you’re like most people you keep your clock radio within 6 feet of your bed. Volume level 1 if fine for waking up to music, but if you like to fall asleep to music, you’ll probably find even the lowest volume level too loud.- You’ll need to keep the instruction manual handy. Whatever you do DON’T LOSE IT!!! Setting this thing is a piece of cake when you have the instructions, but without them it would be quite difficult.- They used a blue backlight, which is too bright at night, even on the lowest setting. Luckily you can turn this off completely and just use the red projection (and you can even turn that off). The red projection isn’t a problem at all. When will companies learn to use red backlighting for clocks instead of blue?Okay, now the pros:- Honestly, this thing works great. I love that the time is set for you right out of the box. All I had to do was choose my timezone. The temperature is a nice touch.- Although the speaker is a bit loud to fall asleep to music to, the sound is pretty clear, and it gets better AM reception than some of the more expensive radios I’ve purchased in the past. FM works great too.- I love the projection feature, which is why I purchased this unit in the first place. You can point it forward or back, and there’s a button to flip/change the clock orientation, depending on which way it’s pointing. There’s also a focus knob, so you can adjust it accordingly. I have it projecting about 10′ away onto the wall, but I can stick my hand out in front of the beam to read the time off my palm.- You can configure 2 different alarms, and you can choose which days of the week they’re effective on. I haven’t tried the buzzer option (as I don’t like the traditional jarring sound they usually make), but the radio on volume level 1 is quite reliable.- The engineers thought about pretty much everything. You can turn the backlight or projection on or off, change the projected clock orientation, and even set the alarm to a radio station other than the one that you currently have dialed in.Despite some of it’s shortcomings, this is a great clock radio. For $30 you’ll have a hard time finding a better product with this many features.

Fue un obsequio para mi mamá a quien por ser una persona mayor le gusta escuchar estaciones de AM por lo que le es funcional, el hecho de poder bajar la intensidad de la luz al reloj es maravilloso y la luz proyectada en el techo para que se pueda ver la hora sin tener que voltear a ver el reloj es un plus para las personas mayores.Super satisfecha por la adquisición!!!
