iPLWBT5 also has battery backup, so if your power goes out, the clock radio and alarm settings shouldn’t be affected. ![]() The clock radio performed very well in speakerphone tests, with both callers reporting clear, strong sound. Which is to say, the sound isn’t exactly impressive, but it’s perfectly acceptable for a bedside alarm clock. The sound is comparable to another iHome alarm clock we recently reviewed, the iZBT10 Zenergy. IPLWBT5 offers a number of ways to listen to music - Bluetooth, aux-in port, or directly from a docked device. The absolute bulkiest cases on the market might cause some problems, but most users should be able to dock and charge an iPhone or iPod with ease. We docked both an iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus with different cases without issue. A rubber pad around the Lightning connector can be removed to accommodate cases. The Lightning charger is well-implemented - the connector can move back and forth to accommodate a device, and a small, clear plastic piece with a rubber pad offers rear support. It doesn’t support Nightstand mode, but considering this is an alarm clock, there’s no need for it. The Apple Watch charger is straightforward - it’s a built-in charging disc on the side of the alarm clock radio. Buttons on the back are used for setting/syncing the time with your iOS device, and Bluetooth pairing. ![]() The back of iPLWBT5 has ports for the clock radio’s (somewhat bulky) AC adapter, USB charging, and an aux-in port. The top of the speaker has typical alarm clock radio controls - volume and playback controls, alarm, mode, sleep, speakerphone, and power buttons, and of course, a snooze button. The display can also show which mode the clock is in for listening, and if any alarms have been set. Stereo speakers are on the front of the alarm clock, with a display showing the time and date.
