A clock radio is a digital alarm clock that features a radio alarm function. It gives the user the option to wake up to music, news radio, or to regular beeping or buzzing alarm. It functions like a regular clock and can be used just like a regular radio with FM and AM frequencies. It also has a snooze button for temporarily shutting off the alarm and a stop button for turning off the alarm completely. It can also have a sleep function for the radio that allows it to turn off automatically after a preset time.
Battery backup: Choose a clock radio with a battery backup feature for continuous use even with a power outage. This feature prevents it from resetting and failing to trigger the alarm on the correct time.
Gradual wake: If you want to wake up slowly by degrees, choose a clock radio with a gradual wake feature that gives off an ascending sound instead of a sudden loud alarm.
Display: Choose an alarm clock with a large, clear display for easy visibility. A display with green numbers is easier on the eyes than one with harsh, red numbers. Also, look for clock radio with a dimmer function that allows you to dim the display at night if you do not want it to double as a nightlight.
