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.

Very good alarm clock. You can put a battery in just in case the power goes off, your alarm still will go off without the screen, so it is reliable. Has a few different alarm sounds which us cool. You can change the color of the bar on the bottom, although the rainbow effect is really cool. You can turn down the brightness to really low. I don't like it that dim so I only turn it down once, but it can go really dim along with the bottom bar light for people that don't want a bright alarm clock screen piercing through the darkness and into their eyes making it hard to sleep. Alarm can go loud. Not much else to say. It works, and it works well for what an alarm clock is supposed to do. Well worth it I recommend getting this.

This clock is perfect for our media room. We wanted something we could easily see, but that didn't distract from the movie or show. This clock has all kinds of lighting choices, including a nightlight feature. Numbers are large and easy to read. You can set it for 24 hour time or 12 hour time (am & pm). Highly recommend!

Pros:It's much lighter in weight than the clock it replaced.The front setting buttons are well placed.The numerals are large and pleasantly colored.The choice of ring tones is a good feature.The multiple-colored night light is an unexpected positive feature.Cons:The ring tone is very loud even at its lowest setting. It could wake the dead at its highest volume.The labeling on the buttons is a bit confusing. I still hold the directions close by.Verdict: Just buy it. You won't be disappointed.

It’s everything I needed in a classic alarm clock. Works great I’m not disappointed at all. Fast cordial delivery. The price is right. What else can you ask for. Another happy customer.

Very happy! I only needed a highly visible clock to view from my bed, and it fits the bill. I don't use the alarm, but it seems to work well. The "nightlight" is okay but I don't know when you would use that. Still, it's worth the price.

Fantastic clock! They have thought through exactly what one needs. The top button can be used to change the brightness of the clock. I have one by my bed and the other at my office desk. Super useful and perfect size numbers.

Perfect for my senior mom and me who have bad eye sight ! Decent price , fast shipping, easy to use , pretty display , too loud alarm , time setting works well and battery has options
