Cool clock but shows minutes only in 5 minute increments

Arrived quickly, looks great in the livingroom

I've wanted one if these for ages so when I saw it on sale I ordered. Love it, but im slightly dissapointed that the light is not even across all the words. Some letters are not as bright as others. Overall brightness is adjustable.

Very unique item, get lots of compliments.

All letters light up brightly, possibly too bright for some people. Great conversation piece! Works flawlessly and changes time every five minutes. I have the black model, 8” x 8”.

This was wonderful. I mouth this as a gift to my brother. He love it and said it was one of the best gifts he has ever received. He likes that it has a masculine feel to it. Also that is fit any decor in the home.

I really like the idea of the clock, even if I at first misread it as World Clock and wondered how this could possibly ... Anyway, it's certainly unique and in a way resets our relationship with time to a slower pace. It does not display every minute but goes in five-minute increments. This is good for a general idea, not when it has to be precise. Further, a quick glance is not enough as one literally has to read the time like a sentence. It doesn't do 24hr time. It's a novelty item that uses time as an approximation. The XL (a.k.a. Pro) version comes with a USB cable, but no power supply. A 5V 1A USB-A brick is sufficient. The included cable is fairly long (ca. 5 ft) and is the main power source for the clock. There are backup batteries (2x AA) but those are only to keep the time when the power goes out. In that case, the display is off. The XL (Pro) version has two differentiating characteristics. First, the display is dimmable. That is a manual setting of one of four brightness levels. Unfortunately, it does not adjust automatically to varying room brightness (i.e., day and night). The adjustment button is behind a (fairly hard to remove) battery door and therefore not easily accessible. Even at the lowest settings it’s fairly bright at night and not suitable for a bedroom (unless as a night light for kids.) The other is the red "five" that signals that a full hour is next. (It's only used for 5 minutes to the full hour, not five after.) Setting the clock is somewhat tedious as you have to cycle thru time in five-minute increments. (no jumping hours etc.) To be somewhat accurate, you’d have to wait for a time matching the 5 minute increments and have to wait up to 5 minutes to be in sync with your setting. There is also no function to observe DST, but at least you can go forward or backwards in time, in 5-minute increments. The white housing (and black front plate) are both minimalistic and elegant. It's meant to be hung on a wall, but in any case there will be a white USB cable to power the clock's display. Overall, it's a nice novelty clock for those who find standard analog or digital clocks boring, or those who can't read an analog clock and need it spelled out. It's not the most practical clock and I wish it had some network functionality to at least read the time and automatically adjust to DST. An adaptive dimming level would be great, too. The price seems reasonable, but not a bargain.

I'm enjoying the device and it works well. I was hoping to power it off batteries or a USB lithium ion power pack. Unfortunately it draws about 5V 200ma, which will mean it will only last 4 days on my beefy USB power pack. Maybe if you use a resistor to restrict the brightness of the letters (they are quite bright), you're restricted to only powering this by a wall wart. I saw somewhere this uses 3x AA batteries as a backup source - this is incorrect. It only uses USB power.

Good designing, very modern clock but there is only one small issue as there is no battery to backup so if the power is off and on again then you need to reset the clock again

The watch resets as soon as unplugged, it'd be great if it had a battery support option to keep it going.

I love this clock. I watch it for what time it displays next. Mesmerizing for sure. It’s so cool, love it. I only wish it had a stand and not a cord hanging down from it from wall mount.

Cute
