My kid wakes up and gets ready to school when the Timex fires off, can’t depend like that on this Sony. So, you can never rely on this as an alarm since power outage is a very common thing in India.

While that is ok, I expect the alarm to at least beep even if there is no power. Totally off in case of power failure – The radio will be totally off in case of a power failure. So it is not at all for someone who prefers to change stations frequently.

The movement range of the tuner dial is small and perfectly tuning to a station takes some time. There is a small window on the top which has a frequency indicator dial that moves when you move the tuner.

SONY RADIO CLOCK INDIA MANUAL

Manual Tuning – The radio uses manual tuning, no auto tuning. This is not useful for someone who wants to rely on it to wake up, but it is useful for people who listen to radio during this hour. If there is a power failure and if power resumes before 7, the alarm will start off and continue till 7. Say alarm is set to 6’o clock, it should continue till 7’o clock if I do not stop. My daughter follows this clock for leaving to school and so I have to adjest it every few weeks.Īlarm Resumes – In case of a power failure, alarm resumes when the power resumes.

SONY RADIO CLOCK INDIA UPDATE

UPDATE : It looses a minute or two every month or so. Time Keeping – Ofcourse, that is what it is made for and keeps time as it should. Do not expect thumping sounds, but considering it as a basic radio, the volume is very good. Three brightness levels are there, but I find 1 and 2 to be insufficient except when totally dark. The digits are clear to read across the room irrespective of the room lighting condition. The orange digits – The orange digts on the all black glass are striking and the orange black combination is awesome.

Glass front – Front is full glass and looks too good whether the digits are on or off. Black is a better option than white as white will eventually get soiled and white is prone to discoloration. Here is what I have to say about my newly purchased clock radio.ĭesign – The cube design is ultra cool and the all black exterior adds to the design.

SONY RADIO CLOCK INDIA UPGRADE

Being a much newer product, I expected it to have good features though I did not want feature to feature match and upgrade of my Timex. I bought it because of the design although my Timex is still serving my purpose. The only research I did before buying ICF-C1 is “how long the radio alarm will continue if it is not stopped?”, the answer is 1 hour which I wanted and is same as my Timex. Moreover we do not have many options in clock radios in India, I think only Philips has such products. Though my experience with Sony products has been mixed, I tend to lean towards Sony. Being much newer than my existing radio and being a Sony product, I expected it be of good quality and to have good features. While casually browising, I came across the Sony ICF-C1 on ebay and immediately bought it as I really liked the design. I do not have an issue with that as I only need that one station. So I tuned it to a station and taped the tuning knob outside, essentially its a one station radio now.

SONY RADIO CLOCK INDIA CRACKED

It has served me well all these years, it is still working but a part of the tuning mechanism has developed a crack inside and tuning can only be done in one direction now, If I have to tune it in other direction(rotate the tuner back), the only option I have is to open up the radio and hold the cracked part and then rotate. It starts the pre tuned radio station as the alarm and continues for one hour or till I stop it. Please connect your Clock Radio AC power code to a wall outlet when you replace the battery.My day starts with the alarm going off my Timex clock radio which I bought in USA 14 years back.
