Lenovo - Smart Clock with Google Assistant - Charcoal

Had Google Nest hubs (7") as alarm clocks in my kids' rooms. Swapped them out for the Lenovo smart clock, and was surprised when the kids wanted to keep the clocks. Volume is louder (for hard sleepers), and the clock looks much cleaner than the display. Still have access to music services and Google assistant. Much smaller than I thought they would be. Great purchase at the holiday sales price. Would buy again, in a heartbeat.

I have 4 of these in my house. I bought one for my wife and I's bedroom, for an easy way to control our nightstand lamps as well as interact with the rest of our google ecosystem in the house. I loved the first one so much, I bought several more. One for my office, aka guest room, one for my wife's office and one for my 10month old. The one for my 10 month old, I heavily modified and did a resto-mod on an old 1930's receiver system that belonged to her great-grandpa and was about to be thrown out. I kitted it out with new speaker, custom plate for the display and period switch for the mic switch. I kept all functionality of the original switches and also added VU meters for a classic look. I am well aware this voided any form of warranty, but that's okay. My daughter's great grandma loves it, and says her late husband would have loved it too as he loved building and restoring things. The clock itself has proven to be pretty reliable, in fact more reliable than 1 of our Google Mini's. The sound quality is pretty good, and the display is crisp and bright. I do recommend this.

I have this in my bedroom on the nightstand and couldn't be happier. I can turn on Pandora, jump in the shower and not only still hear the music, but it can hear me as well. The interface is very easy to use and read. Setup took like 2 minutes.

So far, I am very pleased with this device given the low price I paid. I used to have a bulky old alarm clock AND a Google Home Mini on my small bedside table. I have deep sixed both of those after getting this clock. It has a bright and infinitely flexible display (e.g. have it cycle through your images from Google Photos), and lots of options for info display, clock faces, etc., in addition to all the functions of Google Assistant. The woven charcoal covering makes the clock look minimalist and urbane.

This thing is awesome, super easy to set an alarm but also so convenient. It tells me good morning and goes into the weather and the news automatically, a pretty nice way to wake up. Definitely won't regret it if you purchase it. Plays peaceful sounds when going to sleep do yourself a favor and upgrade your alarm clock

When I opened the box my first thought was, "this thing is so small". I plugged it in and placed it on my bedside table and was pleased because it was very neat looking and didn't take up much space on my table. It works great. I can see it well without my glasses. I can choose my own photos to be the background for the clock display. Setting alarms is very easy. It can play music if you like. The clock is set automatically. All these features are done using voice commands. NO tiny buttons to fumble with. I love this clock, it is exactly what I wanted plus more. I purchased this on sale so it really was an excellent value.

i bought the Lenovo Smart Clock 8/17/2019 and so far it is working fairly well. It does most things I want and I looks pretty sharp on the nightstand. The alarm clock portion couldn't be better. However, I do have some problems with the "smarts of the speaker" and the hardware itself. 1. The software (smarts) - There is no continued conversation. After having this on all the other smart speakers and displays I really miss it. I have read forums and posts saying its coming so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. There is also no home view like you get with the Google Hub and Lenvovo displays. You also can't pair this with a Bluetooth speaker for better quality sound. 2 The hardware - The speaker in this clock is super anemic. You can crank it all the way up and its OK but I feel you shouldn't have to do that. My Google Mini speakers, though similar in size, put out way better sound. As an alarm clock you can make it loud enough to work and even when using the assistant its OK but it isn't designed of listening to music. Adding the ability to pair a Bluetooth speaker with it like all other Google Assistant devices allow, even the Google Home Hub does this, would elevate the problem. I bought this to replace Best Buy's own Insignia Portable smart clock speaker and if the ability to add a Bluetooth speaker isn't added I'll be moving the Insignia back to my nightstand. I'm keeping it though and will move it somewhere else, just wanted people buying it to know these things in advanced. My rating would be 5/5 if the software issues were corrected by either Lenovo or Google. This device could be great. I've tried reaching out to both but have gotten no reply from either.

I really love this little smart clock. I considered the Google Hub before purchasing this item. I'm happy I went my choice. If I wanted a camera or a larger screen, I would use my tablet. It's perfect on the night stand, not bright (it adjusts itself between night and day) and the volume settings are good. It has been updated for continued conversation on Google home and also to work as a digital frame for your Google photos. I also purchased smart bulbs and can control my lights with it thru Google home.
