Product Information

She got her master’s in anthropology from the University of Chicago and worked for years in the restaurant service industry. Scroll down below to see our selection of these funny alarm clocks that make sure if you snooze, you lose. If you set your Ring/Silent switch to Silent or turn on Do Not Disturb, the alarm sound still goes off. If it’s hard for you to wake up in the morning, or if you find it harder as the days grow darker in the fall and winter, a sunrise alarm may help you feel less groggy.

In addition to its snooze button, the straightforward Riki has just three controls: an on/off switch for the alarm and two dial knobs to set the time and the alarm.Our tester enjoyed its portability and its gentle ambient lighting, which can be adjusted with a simple twist. Digital clocks are often associated with electronic drives, but the "digital" description refers only to the display, not to the drive mechanism.

There’s also a radio, which sounds as good as on our upgrade pick, the Philips SmartSleep, and can serve as an alarm tone too. Why it’s great: Lenovo offers two Smart Clocks, the Lenovo Smart Clock and its cheaper sibling, the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential.If you’re looking for a smart alarm clock with a color screen: Consider the Lenovo Smart Clock, which is just barely larger than its more affordable, monochromatic, non-touch Essential counterpart but combines a punchy, full-color touchscreen display with the same Google Assistant hatful of tricks. Type-A port in the back for charging devices (albeit at a slow rate, which is best for overnight charging). As John Hanifin, PhD, assistant professor of neurology at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, explained in an interview, it’s preferable to have a “bedroom-filling” light to wake up—and that’s hard for these apps to do. We measured each sunrise alarm clock’s maximum brightness level with a light meter in a pitch black room. We tested each model in our bedrooms, with the alarm set half an hour earlier than our usual wake-up time, to ensure the clock’s alarm tone was responsible for breaking our usual sleep cycle as well as to allow us to use each clock’s snooze function while still groggy.

My theory behind this problem is that I am the type of person to set 30 different alarms to wake up. We also preferred clocks with a companion app that allows you to set your alarms and customize sunrises and sunsets through your phone. Unobtrusive: An alarm clock should not be the first thing you notice in a bedroom—perhaps it should even be the last. Something that really stood out with this model, versus other clocks we tested: The DreamSky has an enormous digital display (each number is 2 inches tall) that stretches across the entire front of the clock. Tang didn’t say if the clock had a snooze button so you can repeat this process a few times each morning.When your tough-love moment arrives, the device flashes urgently like hazard lights and emits a sound like a car that won’t start—right next to your bed. As the Atlantic reported in 2015, the blue-tinged bright light of a smartphone screen signals to the brain that it's morning, which is a recipe for disaster if you're trying to get to sleep.
