I've had this for about 2 years now, and it's extremely temperamental. The Google assistant works about 25% of the time. Other times it'll cut you off mid-request or just not do anything after you finish your request. The display is also starting to go on it.

I got mine for free, so it's worked well enough for that.

Thanks OP! I see that a 2 pack is even cheaper (per unit). https://www.bestbuy.com/site/comb...ef705ec924

I don't think it's a matter of doing other stuff for most people, it's just the preference to have a clock that's independent of a phone.

After having the color version and waking up in the early morning due to the blinding light from it next to me, I'm going to give this one a shot for the price. Thanks OP and Cobalt_Blue

I totally agree. I have both and a color version is the worst smart clock we have. The display is just too bright and useless. This simpler version is much better

serious question: what does this do that any generic smartphone can't these days? i pretty much sleep with my phone next to me and use its alarm to wake me when needed.

Not run out of battery and waking up late, not having to keep reconnecting for power.

I can see the clock without my glasses. I also like to put the clock across the room, so I have to get out of bed to interact with it.

You can turn down the brightness. I believe you swipe up from the bottom. At full brightness it is a small sun. We have ours all the way down and use a black background.

A power loss or internet/wi-fi loss means that this "alarm clock" dies and won't wake you up. No battery backup!

ok, that's never been a problem for me. but in your case the first reason makes sense (although there are apps than can use the entire screen real estate to show time) but the 2nd - can put your phone across the room too??
