Dekala 5G Arches Gradual Sunrise Alarm Clock with Wireless Charging Loud Alarm Clock for Heavy Sleepers Sunset White Noise Sleep Sound Machine Bluetooth Speaker Night Light Touch/App/Button Control

Why it's worth it

The Dekala 5G Arches piles a Qi charging pad, Alexa and Google Home support, app control and a 120-decibel backup alarm into one bedside unit. It's the pick if gentle light on its own has never once gotten you out of bed.

The 120-decibel backup alarm is the loudest fallback here by a long way. If you've slept through sunrise lamps before, this is the honest answer. The light still does its gradual climb, but you've got a siren waiting behind it. That combination — soft ramp, hard floor — is what most self-described heavy sleepers actually need.

The built-in Qi pad may be the most practical feature on this list. Your phone charges by sitting on the clock, which removes a cable and a wall wart from your nightstand. If the main reason your phone stays next to the bed is the charger, this quietly solves that. It's the only unit in the guide that does it.
