  • FM radio sound is generally clear, but limited to FM only and not all stations are accessible.
  • Multiple reports say the clock and alarm are difficult to set up due to poor instructions.
  • Size is compact yet the display remains prominent and suitable for bedside or elsewhere.
  • Alarm and radio volume settings are polarising—some find them too loud, others too soft.

    Easy to see display

    The clock is nice and compact but has plenty of useful features. I love the super easy to see display and that you can dim the display so that it is not overly bright at night. The auto tune feature is also a bonus as is the battery back up.

    Exactly as needed

    I needed a 240v power plus battery back up clock, to keep the time as we spend time away. This unit filled our needs exactly. Easy to see with these old eyes as well.

    Highly visible

    I use this product for the time only. The digit size is large and visible from across the room. I love the ability to adjust the brightness of the display, with 3 levels. What a fantastic product!

    Large Clear Numerals

    The Philips Alarm Clock Large Display has definately lived up to expectations as it has nice large numerals so it is very clear to see and bright enough without being to bright so you can see the time at night. The size is perfect for the bedside night stand but also due to the nice clear numerals it is perfect to place anywhere in your bedroom and you will be able to see it. The alarm function works perfectly and is adjustable to your needs.
