Digital Alarm Clocks for Bedrooms: Large Bold Number 5 Brightness Dimmer - Easy to Read Across The Room - 5 Alarm Sound 8 Night Light - Silver

I was struggling to find a decent looking bedside clock on Amazon, where most of the cheaper options seemed like cheap throwaways bound for the landfill. I just wanted something that was easily legible, minimalist, and could adequately dim so as to not bother me while trying to fall asleep at night.This checks all the boxes, and then some. Although the clock itself does not take up much space and is quite compact and flat, the digits are relatively large format making the clock easy to read from across the room, while simultaneously not being too big to glance at while in bed. The segmented digits are large, sharp, and uniformly backlit (unlike the clock faces you'd expect from a cheap digital clock like a Timex) leading to an incredibly clear and sleek display.Though I wish it had an auto-dimming feature, the manual dimming control is quite functional. The large, top-mounted snooze button doubles as a dimmer switch. You simply cycle through to the desired brightness (there are five levels, and the 6th turns the display off completely). The lowest setting is incredibly dim, and does not bother me in the slightest when trying to fall asleep.The alarm itself is quite functional, with multiple tones to choose from and several volume levels. The loudest is REALLY loud, probably too loud--they even warn you in the manual to avoid this setting at first since you might get startled. But I guess this is good if you're the type of person who could sleep through a bomb going off.The extra ambient light strip on the bottom of the display is a nice touch if you have the clock in your office or something, but I find it a bit too annoying to keep on in the bedroom even on the lowest brightness (the light strip's brightness control is separate from the actual clock display, which is nice). You can set it to several static colors or set it to an animated rainbow cycle. You can turn it off completely if this isn't for you.Not sure what else needs to be said. USB powered, battery backup, extra USB port on the back for charging. It's well designed and feature packed for the price.edit:note: The battery is only there to maintain the time in memory if you move the clock or lose power. It must be plugged into a USB power source to display anything. Doesn't affect me, but should be something to be aware of.

Surprisingly, this is my favorite alarm clock of all time. I bought it to have a loud alarm to wake me up at 3am to get ready for an early morning surgery. I love the different alarm sound choices along with the volume. The extra options to set brightness of the display or turn off completely along with the very cool light show selections were a bonus! I bought a 2nd one for my guest room. Nice quality and appearance and easy to set. Great value for the price and it has kept accurate time so far after 3 months of use.

Got this for our guest bedroom. We didn't have a clock in there and really didn't think much about it, until we had guests stay. They mentioned we didn't have a clock and not everyone wants to check their phone in the middle of the night (believe it or not). I found this and its perfect. Its got large, easy to read numbers. It is quite bright, but there is a switch on the back to turn the brightness down. Its very accurate and it fits our needs perfectly. High quality and inexpensive? Yes, please!!!

Easy to use. Bright and easy to see. Easy to use. Only has a few digital sounds that I like.

I just wanted something to tell me the time. I wanted to see it from across the room. I have my cell phone for an alarm if I need it. I really like this clock. It’s not expensive, but it doesn’t feel cheap. It feels sufficient and decently constructed. It has actual legible comprehensible instructions, in a print font you can read. This proves the makers knew you’d be buying this to use it. Hilariously… it’s pretty simple and you could operate it without reading the instructions. Hold the time button 2 secs to enter time setting mode. Then use the hour and minute buttons each to set the hours and minutes. The only thing surprised me was that when I installed the batteries the display did not light up. The instructions say that the display does not work unless it’s plugged in but the batteries which you have to supply allow the clock to keep its memory. I like it and I’m going to get another. It even has silicone on the bottom so that when you set it down it stays. Playing with the RGB is fun.

We needed a clock for the living room and this one fits the need. It’s bright and the numbers are large and easy to read, even without my glasses. We don’t use the alarm feature, so I can’t say how well that works. But as far as the clock, it’s a nice size and very easy to plug in and set the time.

Absolutely the best alarm clock. Love all the options, from colors to sounds, brightness and the large screen. So reasonably priced and worth every penny. It’s thrilling to find such quality and attentiveness to detail. Well done.

I Love this lil guy. Big bold and bright, MANY volume settings for the alarm which is GREAT! It has AWESOME alarms, not your annoying basic three or whatever. I'm REALLY Glad I grabbed this
