Easiest clock to set, sounds great and alarm volume is adjustable. Features I've struggled to find in alarm clocks. You do need it connected online via a Google account but honestly fantastic and so functional!

Wish I got something else but was convinced I was only getting this mainly as a bedside table clock. Speaker quality is atrocious and cant hear u say ok google when it is delivering music. Now sitting in our spare bedroom.

This is a very good item . It does so much and even my old school bloke can use it. Make sure you read the manual to set it up. Its so easy.

Fantastic Clock radio,bought for my dad. Just wish Australian prices weren't so high. U.S sell $34au. I bought for $56, but now your selling it for $99. Australians are getting done on imported electrical goods.

This Lenovo Smart Clock Essential is indeed one smart clock. The Google Assistant works great. It's value for money, considering the Google Assistant, nightlight, ability to play music and looks great! Only downside is, not having backup battery option.

If you’ve already put your smart home system together, chances are that you already have the best smart speakers that fit the bill. Whether it’s the Nest Audio family with Google Assistant, HomePod for the Apple faithful, or Echo speakers for Alexa fans, we really have reached the pinnacle (to-date)...

Traditional clock with Assistant, Physical mute switch and control buttons, Built-in LED ring light

Speaker really isn’t that loud, Touchsensitive snooze can be finicky, Lights may be too bright for some

For someone looking to get a basic alarm clock that happens to work with Google Assistant, it's hard to go wrong with the Smart Clock Essential.

LED display is informative; Nightlight is a helpful addition; Excellent alarm clock

Speaker is subpar; LED can be too bright a night; Some issues in a wider smart home setup

Just buy a Smart Clock

There is no shortage of devices that you can stick on your bedside table to use as a voice-controlled alarm clock. You can, of course, just use your phone, but you can also put a small smart speaker, such as Amazon’s Echo Dot , Google’s Nest Mini , or Apple’s new HomePod mini there and bark commands...

Displays time; weather conditions; current alarms; Has the full Google Assistant capabilities; Doesn’t take up a lot of space; Is inexpensive

Speaker doesn’t sound great; Nightlight feature isn’t very practical; Tap-to-snooze is unreliable

Lenovo's Smart Clock Essential delivers just what's needed to get their day started the right way. The clock has the look of a retro-style clock radio, complete with a LED display, but is powered by Google Assistant.
