Philips DC390/37 Dual-Docking 30-Pin iPod/iPhone/iPad Alarm Clock Speaker Dock

I bought this for many reason, I have both Iphone and Ipad. I didn't buy for the radio and sounds but for the recharging station and the alarm clock. 1 month since I bought it.ProsI use it several times for the radio and sound that comes from the radio is really good, for such a radio that is small and compact.There are so many options and setting that you can use that are great: You can use either Ipone and Ipad in music as your alarm. If you are worry about if it loud enough to wake you up? Rest assure the level you can get it up too is very loud.2 in 1 feature is so nice. I don't have to worry about the getting an extra outlet charger, and/or taking the charger from one location to the next every day. I keep the outlet charger in my living room and stays there.The whole unit looks nice and retro.Eventhough, it is a little pricy I would not think twice about paying it again.Having the remote is nice (I rarly use it)Cons:I have trouble setting up the alarm clock because in my opinon the directions was not anywhere close to be helpful. After playing with it I learn how to use it, but still have problems changes the settings.It is little pricy

I love this Dual Dock. I had an iHome speaker dock that worked with my iPhone 4S prior to purchasing this. I recently obtained a hand me down iPad 3 from my best friend. I wanted a solution to charge both devices simultaneously and this fit the bill. I had an issue when I first powered it on though. I had my iPhone and iPad charging and I was listening to music streaming from my phone. I went to crank the volume and the device cut off and reset when the volume was above a certain threshold. If I undocked my iPad 3, then I could increase the volume again. I was really disappointed because the sound quality is better than what was possible with my old iHome. I installed the backup AA batteries from my iHome into this dock and the problem hasn't happened since. Now I can charge both devices and crank the volume with no issue. If you run into this issue, please put two AA batteries in the dock. Sound quality is excellent and I can hear the music very clearly, even while taking a shower. You can crank it with no distortion and it will fill the room with sound quite nicely. Don't ever lose the remote control though. You'll lose so much functionality if you do. Fortunately, the remote is more substantial than the credit card shaped one I had with the iHome. This one has actual buttons on it so it's easier to find if you misplace it. I was able to dock my ipad even with a case on it. I don't have a case on my phone to test docking ability, but I can tell you an otter box won't dock with this. The bumper or a smaller case should dock no problem. Nothing but praise for this dock. If you have older iDevices.....get this. You won't regret it. I plan to upgrade my phone to an iPhone 6 and I want to explore every solution possible to get this dock to work with it. I love this speaker dock that much.

This clock replaced one that I've had for literally a decade and loved.Pro-Ability to charge my phone at night. I don't like taking my case off, so I use an adapter. iPad dock is great.-Sound quality is very good for the price point.-The alarm gradually increasing in volume. I enjoy this feature much more than I expected.-The remote is occasionally convenient, but I honestly don't use it much. The good news is that I have not lost it yet.-Two alarms settings (week day and weekend) is a must for me, can't live without out this feature.CONS-Difficult to proactively cancel the alarm. Occasionally I wake up before the alarm time. It is difficult to go through the steps to cancel the alarm from going off at the preset time. I have done this wrong several times, left for work and the alarm goes off anyway - waking my husband.- Its pretty big. If you have a small night stand, think twice-It's a little too bright, even when dimmed. If you are a light sensitive sleeper, keep this in mind.-Alarm off button if fairly small - easy to miss it when you are half awake.Overall I like the clock. It's not perfect, but for me the Pros outweigh the Cons.

I have to write a review on this dock based on a couple of weeks of using this thing. I am a huge audio person and find the sound superb for an inexpensive "bed side dock". So far this dock has been outstanding and has exceeded my expectations. The sound fills a room and in fact when turned up can be heard on our entire first floor of our home, which is very spread out. It has a nice simple design with all the controls on top and a nice front display, a little hard to read the date from a distance but the time is clear so not a big deal. I was going to put this on my night stand in the bed room, but so far it hasn't made it's way up there yet because the sound is too good. So unfortunately I have not used the alarms, so I can't review it for that aspect. This is my fifth dock for my apple products (ipod,iphone,ipad) and so far so good. Sound is great with some decent highs and great bass. Ease of use in docking both the iphone and ipad is very handy. What made this an even better purchase was the $57 price tag. If you are looking for a decent alarm/ dock for a decent price, I definitely recommend this thing.
