5:25 is where I made sure to give this video a like. WAY too many tech reviewers speak those commands out loud and set off everyone's phones and smart speakers they've already got. Kudos on your all too rare mindfulness.

@jmart01 4 года назад

For anyone who would like to use this clock to wake up using FM radio, just say 'Wake me up at (time) playing (FM station)'. You can then set it to repeat daily in the alarm settings. Additionally, you can adjust the alarm volume in those settings.

@TechWithBrett 4 года назад

That is a great tip thanks!

Hey Brett. Very good video, I'm considering replacing my Google home mini and at the same time, Put the Google home mini in living room, but my question is, can it do exactly the same as the Google home mini? I mean, is it really an upgrade? (apart from the screen and being a clock)

The only two things I can think of that it will not do is become a Bluetooth speaker and make actual phone calls.

@EsotericArctos 2 года назад

Watching ths 3 years later, all the features are standard Google features on any smart display, but what I love about the Lenovo Smart Clock, even 3 years later, is it is small and compact. It looks like a bedside clock rather than a smart screen. Sure, it can't play videos, but aside from that it is very functional and works well for the purpose of being a clock with some smarts built into it. The Smart Clock 2 is very similar, but has improved sound, to the point where I would recommend the Smart Clock 2 now, but if you can pick one of the originals up cheap, they are very worth while and still get updates.

Nope. If you can be able to find a speaker from either of the company's compatible with the Lenovo smart clock (If you want, I'll name all the company's that's compatible with the smart clock, I'll name them all: RU-vid music Pandora Nest Google Chromecast Spotify Phillips Hue) Phillips Hue is recommended to see if there is a speaker. I haven't checked their website, so you can check! :) Phillips Hue sell Light bulbs that are compatible with your Lenovo Clock, And uhh., that's really all I know of XD Conclusion: Highly doubt there is one. You can always contact Lenovo about this idea though. Just a thought 🙃 hope this helps!

@macinman 4 года назад

Hey Brett, I just finished watching your Video about the Lenovo smart clock, that you recommended yesterday. I really like what this has to offer. However, even though this would have done what I am looking for. I'm looking to see if there is anything that will simply just be a clock that keeps itself set, and maybe automatically adjust brightness based on time of day. Something that doesn't strictly rely on AC power to work, and be visible. The solution I'm looking for in a smart clock would be for it to be able to work on battery power, or AC. Most of the digital clocks that take a 9V for backup, only light the display when AC power is present, and extended time on battery still causes the clock to lose time. Of course, I have my phone, iPad and computers for time, but they aren't always on dedicated clocks. Of course, I can always ask Google, or Alexa for the time, but then again, they require AC, and aren't always on. Either way, loved the video. Hope I have given you some more info related to my solution I'm looking for. Have a great day.
