Title: iHome DL100 review: Speaker dock charges three devices, but falls short as an alarm clock Post by: HCK on March 10, 2014, 02:00:26 pm iHome DL100 review: Speaker dock charges three devices, but falls short as an alarm clock
<article> <section class="page"> <p>iHome’s $150 <strong>DL100 (http://www.ihomeaudio.com/iDL100G/)</strong> (which the company describes as a “Triple Charging Stereo FM Clock Radio with Two Lightning Docks and USB Charge/Play for iPad/iPhone and iPod”) is cooler in concept than in practice. It’s a fine clock, a fine charging station, and a decent speaker. But it’s a lackluster alarm clock, and alarm-clock features have always been what makes iHome’s products stand out from the crowd.</p><p>The DL100’s standout feature is the capability to charge three devices simultaneously. The top surface hosts two Lightning-connector docks—one for an iPhone or iPod, and the other, with a sturdy back support, for an iPad (full size or mini). On the back of the DL100 is a USB port for charging a third device. You can use the DL100’s speakers to listen to an iOS device connected to any of the three connectors.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2104140/ihome-dl100-review-speaker-dock-charges-three-devices-but-falls-short-as-an-alarm-clock.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: iHome DL100 review: Speaker dock charges three devices, but falls short as an alarm clock (http://www.macworld.com/article/2104140/ihome-dl100-review-speaker-dock-charges-three-devices-but-falls-short-as-an-alarm-clock.html#tk.rss_all) |
