Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime review: Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime

AM/FM/iPod clock radio with motion-controlled snooze mode; attractive, compact design; works with iPhones without the need for them to be switched to airplane mode.

Middling sound quality, especially on bass-heavy music; only six radio station presets.

Logitech's Pure-Fi Anytime is a good choice for anyone in the market for a basic, affordable iPhone/iPod-friendly clock radio--so long as you're not a stickler for sound quality.

Logitech Pure-Fi Elite

Logitech's good-looking, sweet-sounding iPod sound system is an excellent budget choice, despite some pesky flaws.

Excellent value. Full-bodied sound. Sleek styling. Includes an AM/FM tuner and auxiliary input.

Enormous power brick. Erratic button and remote response. No alarm clock.

Logitech Pure-Fi Elite review

When we reviewed the Logitech AudioStation speaker system for the iPod last year, we were generally impressed with both its design and performance, so we gave it high marks. Flash-forward to 2007, and Logitech has dumped the AudioStation name in lieu...

Sleekly designed iPod speaker system with AM/FM radio; line audio input; composite and S-Video output for displaying photos and videos from compatible iPods; digital clock; excellent LCD display; sounds good, with decent bass and clarity for a speaker...

No alarm to go with the clock; S-Video slot is recessed, making it difficult to plug in some S-Video cables; video output doesn't work with sixth-generation video iPods.

The Logitech Pure-Fi Elite stands above the iPod speaker competition with a can't-miss combination of excellent design, great sound, and a low price.

Review: Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime

Logitech's Pure-Fi Anytime alarm clock with iPod dock turns out to be pretty good at nearly all of its functions, even if there we have a few quibbles here and there.

In addition to the built-in AM/FM radio and iPod dock, you can listen to another audio source via a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) auxiliary-input jack on the back of the Anytime. There you'll also find a permanently attached FM antenna and connections for the...

Review: Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime

Measuring roughly 10.5" wide by 4.5" deep by 4.2" tall, Anytime looks like a glossy black plastic box with rounded edges that has been gently skewed to recline, and cut in the center for a universal iPod dock. Six buttons are on the system's top left,...

The major reasons to like Pure-Fi Anytime are its styling and pricing. Modern, clean, and with a smaller footprint than most of its competitors, this system manages to look nicer than most of the alarm clocks we've tested for iPods and iPhones despite...

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime iPhone Alarm Clock Review

Logitech makes pretty good systems. Their speakers systems are durable and have pretty good quality. The Pure-Fi Anytime is a pretty standard alarm clock iPhone/iPod docking system. For an alarm clock one may only expect an alarm and a clock put into...

Great sound quality ; Protects iPhone/iPod well ; AM/FM radio with presets ; Solid construction

Sacrifices a little bass ; Buttons could be easier to use ; Large power supply

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime

Portable iPod dock with built-in alarm clock

Built-in radio, detailed mid-range and highs, sweet treble notes

Quite a bit of distortion, lack of clarity in the mid-range, remote can't surf the menu, bass somewhat weak

A good but not great iPod alarm clock, it has a few nifty features like its motion sensor but the audio is merely average.

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime iPod Dock

Wave goodbye to the iPhone airplane mode with this bedside speaker dock.

we looked at a couple of weeks ago, you can't navigate iPod/iPhone menus using the remote - something we'd have liked to seen on this, too.

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime review

How about a little Brian May or Edward Elgar to rouse you from your slumber?

Multiple alarms/playlists ; Reliable alarm functionality ; Motion sensor ; Illumination doesn't light room

Uni-directional sound ; Stiff buttons

It's not going to replace your hi-fi, but as an alarm clock it's a superb choice

Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime iPod dock and radio

"I want a digital radio" my brother squawked, lining up his choice of Christmas presents, circa 1982. Of course, he wasn't talking about DAB, he meant an alarm clock with a large LCD time display. Which is basically what the Pure-Fi Anytime is. Yes,...

Adjustable brightness, battery backup, remote control holder

A little vigorous in wake-up volume ramping, price, no DAB

Certainly, as a "radio alarm clock" we have no complaints with the sound, but it won’t really fit the bill out of the bedroom, which, combined with the lack of controls for the iPod itself, means this can’t really compete with other dedicated docks. At...
