XREXS Large Digital Wall Clock WiFi Sync, 16.5 in Large Display Wall Clock with Temperature/Date/Week, LED Big Digital Timer Clock with Remote Control, Alarm Clock for Home and Office, Auto-dimming

I have a couple of other large red led-illuminated digital wall clocks, and frankly they all look fairly similar. That’s not a bad thing. I went out of my way to find clocks that specifically have this appearance. What I especially like about this clock is that it has a set-and-forget (WiFi) feature, at least that is the way it is advertised. So, naturally, I tested it. First, I set the time, and it was about a one or two seconds off. Next, I set up the WiFi (more on that below). After it connected, I looked at my phone’s clock, which of course, is updated continuously to AT&T’s network clock. When I did this, both my phone and my wall clock changed the minute synchronously. **** Set up *** There is a little space beside the battery compartment, where one can coil up the electric cable, but it does not fit well. You will need to work to get it to fit and replace the cover. The WiFi initially was not found on my phone, but it did eventually come up but I had to run the setup a second time to get the “Success” message that indicates completion. There is a dedicated appliance for the remote control. While this is convenient, for setting an alarm, even then it is unnecessary. The setup uses your phone (or tablet) to connect to your WiFi. It would make better sense code an app and list it on Apple’s or Android’s app stores than to have an ongoing manufacturing cost for the dedicated appliance. The fact that they didn’t think this through very carefully makes me worry a little bit that there may be other things that they didn’t treat thoughtfully either. **** End Set up **** For now, none of the set up items was sufficiently grievous alone or in combination that I thought I would deduct stars. I’m making a judgement call that a one-time setup nuisance is unimportant relative to long-term daily operation. If operational issues come up, I’ll update my post. For now, however, everything does what I need/want — i.e. large, appropriately colored and illuminated, display of accurately synchronized time. In my view, that’s worth five stars.

I dealt with setting my Alexa echo displays to a red clockface, however, it is not an OLED screen, has some backlight bleed, and likes to mess with your settings and display unnecessary menus when shouting voice commands. I just needed a red digital clock that could be held to the accuracy of atomic or wi-fi connections. This device seems to fit the bill. Pros: - Large print digits, as large as would be reasonably necessary - Batteries included - Battery backup for settings - Functional and responsive remote - Timer and alarm functions - Auto-brightness or multiple manual brightness steps - Brightest setting is as bright as you'd ever need it - Helpful paper mounting guide included. Sorta cons: - Wi-fi setup was confusing. See steps below. - The lowest brightness is acceptable, and is not obtrusive in a dark room nor invisible while lights are still on, but I do honestly think they could update the unit to have just a few more dimmer settings. The clock's firmware can be updated, so, it seems like this is in the realm of possibility for the future. - The auto-brightness feature is nice, but also kind of dumb. Turn a light on next to it, full brightness. Turn it off, lowest brightness. The sensitivity range should be increased by a firmware update. - The "DST", "[Date]", "Month", "Day", and "Date" labels are effectively unnecessary and just extra light that's not needed. Firmware should allow these items to be "hidden" and not display. I used blackout stickers to cover them and the design is less cluttered as a result. I'm sure the wi-fi signal is useful for first setup or troubleshooting, but the others I'm not sure who would ever need to decipher what the clock is saying. - "AM" and "PM" labels should have been larger or just "A" "P" to make them larger. It's hard to see from a distance. - Setup document is not perfect, follow below for Wi-Fi setup: 0. Do not "Forget" your wi-fi network. They mean "disconnect". This is important! 1. HOLD (do not "continually press") Alarm Set and Timer buttons BEFORE plugging in 2. Plug in. You will hear a beep. 3. The network will appear as "HQX2128" on a phone. Connect to it. 4. Navigate to 192.168.88.1. 5. Select "Web-Config" 6. Enter your Wi-FI network, Password, and DST settings. [Note, this is where the instruction to "forget" your network will get you into trouble. It only seems to account for networks your phone "remembers". Therefore, merely disconnect from your wi-fi, do not "forget" it.] 7. It will give an "updated" or "saved" type of response. 8. The clock will display the wi-fi icon. Time will be kept by wi-fi. - Temperature function is a bit useless as it reads ambient temperature. This should be a setting that should/could be checking for local temperature online. I don't personally care for this setting though, so it doesn't bother me. After getting through the setup hiccups, I'm honestly quite satisfied. It's big, it has considerable options, it has a working remote, it connects to wi-fi, and it displays the correct time as you see fit. I also like the date and day presentation. They could certainly do a few improvements as they have the firmware capability to do so, and the instructions could be written a bit better. Ultimately, this is seemingly the only large format, Red LED clock with wi-fi capabilities. My projector clock has been firmly beaten.

Clock is great. But there is ZERO WiFi functionality on this thing. That's the whole reason I purchased it and it does not do what I want it to do. And because I didn't install it right after I bought it, I didn't know that it's missing the wifi function. So now I'm stuck with a device I didn't need. If you need this to connect to wifi, don't buy it. It can't. There no setting to turn wifi on or off. There is no instructions. The box doesn't not say wifi or network, or anything like that anywhere.

Everything worked as expected - except for the remote control which I had to replace. Customer Service was great and helped me out with that. There's everything to like with this. I got the RED (easier on the eyes at night), and the digits are very clear. You can control the brightness with either lo, hi or auto that is controlled via a switch on the back of the unit. I leave mine on auto and am very happy. Internet setup is easy. You have to surf over to the IP address of the unit (you have to be on the same wifi network as the clock) and make a couple of selections and hit enter - all done. Be aware that there is a small wire protruding from the case at the back of the unit - that it seems is the temperature sensor. Don't be tempted to push that back into the unit else your temperature readings may be off. Love, love, love the internet feature. So much better than the atomic clock units that are very picky about where they are positioned. My only potential criticism - the lettering for the day of week is a little off because they use display segments that are multi-lingual capable. I also hope that it will automatically adjust the time at the end of DST - we shall see. Get it - you won't be disappointed if you want accurate, big letter clocks.

The clock looks great, and works as advertised with exception of the wi-fi. There are many reviews here on Amazon citing it would not connect to the wi-fi that had been configured. I experienced a similar issue where the wi-fi setup worked per the instructions, but after I entered my SSID and password, the clock would not connect - my router supports 2.4GHz and WPA and WPA2. I tried several times with no success. The wifi network I use for IOT devices has a 14-character password with multiple symbols. What did work: My network has a separate SSID for guests, that has a much shorter, simpler password with no symbols and only 10-character password - when I entered this wi-fi info into the clock, it immediately connected. If you're having wi-fi issues and you have symbols or long wi-fi passwords, that may be your issue...

The clock looks great and is a little larger than I expected, which is fine. My one issue is that I cannot get the wifi to work with it and that was a primary reason for choosing this clock. I've gone thru the steps multiple times getting all the right responses but the wifi symbol never shows up on the clock. If the wifi worked it would be a solid 5.

This digital wall clock is truly a home run! It accomplished everything I wanted from a large digit clock for my office wall: easy readability, Internet time standard sync with both timer and alarm functions. My particular location doesn't lend itself to WWV time standards so having the Web interface is ideal. I even watched it instantly "jump ahead" from 2 to 3 am when daylight saving time arrived this Spring! The ONLY downside was satisfactorily resolved with the seller. The alarm's "snooze" function didn't have a corresponding button LABELED on the clock's remote control. The seller profusely apologized pointing out the "Timer ST/SP" button acted as snooze while in alarm clock mode. Solved! The attached photo shows the clock's remote and where I added "SNZ" to remind me it doubles as a snooze button. I highly recommend this highly accurate, easy-to-read clock. Good luck!

I was looking for an accurate clock for our Worship Center. The one I had was loosing time. I considered an Atomic Clock but this is a metal building and the clock is in the middle of the Worship Center. So I found this WiFi clock and was curious to try it out. I installed it today and the setup was super easy. Attaching to the WiFi was simple and quick. Time will tell about it's accuracy but I'm certain as long as it's attached to the internet, it will be accurate. Besides, it's in a place where you need a ladder to get to it, and I was tired of trying to keep the other clock set properly. So I have high hopes for this clock. UPDATE: We've had this clock for a while now and it has continued to function accurately. I'm so glad we purchased it. In fact, it has been such a hit that I had to order another one for our Fellowship Center. Both are connected to the WiFi and keep accurate time. The remote has been a good thing as well. I needed to change the display brightness, and guess what? I didn't need a ladder. I am totally happy with this purchase.

I like wifi sync feature. Liked the remote. Not many chimes, I wish the chime can run every hour with a set time range.

I tried everything to activate the WiFi but nothing happened

one is not work , kindly arrange to replace

…rewelacja.

Muy buena compra, se puede elegir el lenguaje en español para los días de la semana, hay que seleccionar una red wifi de 2.4 Ghz y poner la contraseña para que tome los datos del servidor, tiene DTS para el horario de verano en mi caso lo puse en off porque en mi zona no hay. Tiene los datos grandes con iluminación de 3 niveles pero sería mejor que agregaran otro nivel menos intenso para uso nocturno, aunque no molesta si se ve muy iluminado en la oscuridad. Desde el control remoto puedes manejar las configuraciones y las funciones, como apagarlo, activar campanadas para sonar cada hora de 6:00 am a 9:00 pm, configurar alarmas de todos los días, solo de lunes a viernes o solo sábados y domingos, usar el cronómetro y la cuenta regresiva que programes.
