At a glance
One-line verdict
This smart clock turns timekeeping into a tiny pixelated information desk, provided your Wi-Fi is 2.4 GHz and your bedside table can tolerate another cable.
Best for
Desk-dwellers and smart-home tinkerers who want glanceable time, weather, alerts, and counters in one deliberately nerdy little display.
Skip it if
Skip it if you need a battery-powered clock, use only 5 GHz Wi‑Fi, or want your alarm clock to perform the radical task of just showing the time.
The full picture
A normal clock has one job: report the time before you make coffee and attempt to become a person. LaMetric TIME LM 37X8 looks at that modest assignment and adds weather, timers, radio, stopwatch duties, smartphone notifications, music streaming, and social media counters. This is plainly unnecessary. That is also very much the point.
We think it earns its desk space because the format is unusually legible: a long 37 x 8 LED display for text and numbers, plus an 8 x 8 color section on the left for pixel-based visual cues. It can show Latin, Cyrillic, and Japanese characters and supports marquee scrolling, so it is built to communicate more than the usual glowing accusation that it is 2:14 a.m. again.
The manufacturer lists Clock, Weather, Radio, Timer, and Stopwatch apps, while the selected listing also calls out alarm-clock and social-counter functions. That makes this a useful complementary pick for a home office, kitchen counter, or nightstand where a phone is technically nearby but is also one notification away from turning a two-minute task into forty minutes of nonsense.
There is some setup bureaucracy, because of course the clock needs a smartphone for configuration and relies on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Still, the actual object remains pleasingly focused: a small indoor display measuring 20.1 x 6.1 x 3.6 cm, with automatic brightness adjustment, Bluetooth 4.0, two built-in speakers, and a wired audio-out option. It is a clock for people who have looked at a clock and thought, “Could this also quietly monitor the collapse of my attention span?”
The Irresistible
- The 37 x 8 LED display combines a white text area with an 8 x 8 color section, making room for time plus pixel-art-style information rather than merely larger digits.
- Clock, Weather, Radio, Timer, and Stopwatch are listed built-in apps, so the device has useful jobs ready before anyone begins the inevitable app-configuration rabbit hole.
- Bluetooth 4.0 supports music streaming and smartphone notifications, while the selected listing includes social media counter functionality for anyone who has made numbers on the internet part of their décor.
The Clever Part
- An ambient-light sensor and automatic brightness adjustment are built in, so brightness can adjust automatically rather than remain a fixed setting.
- The 19.5 x 4.2 cm screen area sits in a 20.1 x 6.1 x 3.6 cm device, a compact footprint for a desk, shelf, or nightstand.
- Two built-in 2 W stereo speakers are included, and the 3.5 mm stereo output allows connection to external speakers; the audio cable is not included.
- The box includes a 1.5 m USB cable and a power adapter with EU, US, and UK plugs, which is refreshingly less scavenger-hunt-like than many gadgets.
The Fine Print
- Configuration requires an iPhone with iOS 10.0 or later or an Android phone with Android 5.0 or later, because even a clock now expects onboarding.
- It needs 5 V DC at 2 A through an external power adapter, so this is a plugged-in display rather than a clock you casually move around the room.
The Reality Check
- LaMetric TIME supports 802.11 b/g/n 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only; a 5 GHz-only network is a hard stop.
- It is intended for indoor use only, so this is not the patio, garage, or camping-clock solution.
