With an unusual ‘flip’ method of turning the alarm on and off, this colourful clock is fun and functional, but not very flexible. If you’re after that classic alarm clock look (and sound), then Newgate’s compact Charlie Bell clock is a good option. It also features flashing lights and comes with a battery-powered bed-shaking unit to place under your mattress or pillow.

This will also turn on a nightlight for a few seconds if you want to check the time when it’s dark without disturbing your rest too much. Unlike other alarms, it doesn’t just play a loop of music or emit a regular series of beeps that soon become synonymous with your mornings and can often be ignored. Smaller clocks, such as the Jall and DreamSky, can probably fall off a bedside table dozens of times before anything happens to them, just because they’re so light and the impact is minimal. At trade shows including CES, KBIS, and IFA, she's watched smart-home and home appliance trends evolve. Additionally, even though the nightlight can be fully turned on or off, the time display can only be dimmed and doesn't shut off completely.A couple of caveats: The user interface layout is clunky compared to the other clocks we tested, so setting the time and the alarm is more difficult than we’d like. If you’re looking for a solid alarm clock and don’t need the extra features of the Jall, the DreamSky Compact Digital Alarm Clock could be the one for you.

It reduces alertness and performance, which impairs your memory and reduces your ability to retain information, think and process your thoughts. However, we will probably do the same routine the following morning, setting and re-setting the alarm, getting off to a poor start again and continuing the cycle of poor sleep. Sleep specialist Alex Dimitriu, MD, recommends placing a loud alarm clock for heavy sleepers "far from the bed stand so they would require getting up and walking over to turn it off.

Your alarm needs to be loud enough to actually wake you up, without actually disturbing the neighbours. The matte metal casing comes in a variety of colours and the clock face – which has a more modern, minimalist design – is clear and easy to read. Also, the Sonic Bomb is one of the few alarms that broke during our drop tests, so if your reaction to an alarm going off involves throwing it across the room, you may want to look elsewhere. This large screen easily made it one of the most readable clocks, tied only with the Magnasonic Projection Alarm Clock, which can project the time onto your ceiling.

The Magnasonic Projection-Temp-Connection alarm clock is a reliable time projector that will ensure you wake up promptly every morning. The Loftie uses a two-phase alarm to ease you awake instead of jerking you awake, with soft sounds starting nine minutes before the actual set time to gently wake you.This unusual cube-shaped alarm clock comes in a range of colours, including a few different faux wood finishes. In addition to the standard radio and buzzer options, some alarm clocks allow users to dock a media player such as a smartphone to play content from the device, or connect a USB stick, for a customised way to start the day.
