Sunrise Alarm Clock & White Noise Machine with Bluetooth Speaker (White/Khaki)
Review
Sunrise simulation and gentle wakening: The clock recreates a sunrise over a programmable period of 10 to 60 minutes so light intensity ramps up slowly before the alarm time. This gradual light change helps avoid abrupt awakenings and supports a calmer start to the day.
Alarm and sound options: Choose from 10 selectable wake-up tones and adjust volume across 32 distinct steps. The unit supports unlimited snooze repetition so you can stagger wake times without losing your setup. Note the white-noise playback and sunrise simulation cannot run at the same time.
White noise, ambient sounds and lighting: The sound module offers 30 sleep and masking tracks (examples include rain, classic white noise and crackling fire) played through clear onboard speakers. The lamp includes 17 light modes — eight fixed-color presets plus nine RGB variants — with adjustable brightness across 0–20 levels to serve as a nightlight, reading lamp, or mood light.
Timers, connectivity and operation: Use the adjustable auto-off timer from 10 to 480 minutes for naps or full nights. Connect a phone or tablet via Bluetooth 5.3 to stream music; Bluetooth controls audio only and cannot change alarm or lighting settings. No WiFi, app, or batteries are required for normal operation — just plug in and set your preferences.
Backup memory and safety: A built-in coin-cell backup preserves your alarm time, selected sound and light settings if mains power is interrupted, but it does not power the alarm during a total outage. The internal design avoids loose small parts for improved child safety.
Build, dimensions and package: The housing is made from ABS plastic with soft silicone buttons. Approximate footprint is 6.3 × 4.1 × 3.0 inches and the unit weighs about 10–12 oz. What’s included: Sunrise Alarm Clock ×1, 5V/2A adapter ×1, USB‑C data cable ×1, user manual ×1 and quick start guide ×1.
Important usage notes: Always use the supplied power adapter and cable to avoid malfunction or damage. The sunrise feature and white-noise playback are mutually exclusive. Setting alarms for a single specific day is not supported; follow the manual’s instructions to ensure the repeat pattern you need. The backup battery retains settings only; it will not trigger the alarm when the device is completely without mains power. Bluetooth is audio-only and does not provide remote control of clock functions.
Pros
- Gradual sunrise with many light options
- Extensive sleep sounds and timer settings
- Bluetooth 5.3 streaming and easy plug-in use
Cons
- Sound quality could be better
- Clock display brightness can be intrusive
- Some physical buttons may feel finicky
VerdictA versatile bedside unit that combines a gradual sunrise lamp, multi-sound white noise player, and Bluetooth speaker. It’s simple to use, child-safe in design, and offers deep customization of lights and timers — a strong choice if you want a gentler wake-up and better bedtime routines, though sound tuning and some controls could be improved.

Great value with a couple quirks
Functionality is solid and it’s helped me stop relying on my phone alarm. One light mode can be stubborn to turn off unless held twice, and a sound-button has stuck a few times even though it’s clean.

Does the job for waking me up
Sunrise feature helps me get up on time. Alarm tones are limited, but I found one that suits me.

Major help for morning routines
I have ADHD and mornings used to be a struggle. The gradual light makes waking feel natural and keeps me from smashing snooze. The built-in tones aren’t studio quality, but the overall effect is life-changing. Design is understated and not garish.

Straightforward and dependable
Setup was quick thanks to a simple manual. The sounds are pleasant, Bluetooth works well, and it reliably wakes me while gently brightening the room. I’d recommend it for easy daily use.

Calmer mornings for trauma sensitivity
My partner startles easily and alarms were always stressful. After one use this clock made mornings much less jarring. It doubles as a speaker and the dimmable time display is useful.

Better sleep and less background noise
White noise and nature tracks help me fall asleep faster and block distracting noises. The sunrise lamp creates a soothing wake-up, and the controls were easy to learn. A solid buy for improving sleep.

Looks great but display is too bright
The unit is attractive and well-featured, but the clock digits have a bluish cast and the display gets very bright with the sunrise—there wasn’t a way to reduce that in settings, so I returned it.
