Projection Alarm Clocks: A Modern Upgrade to Your Nightstand

  • Sep 12
  • 4 min read

If you’re still relying on your phone’s alarm to wake you up every morning, it might be time for an upgrade. Phone alarms are convenient, sure — but they’re also distracting, unreliable when the battery dies, and not exactly stylish when it comes to bedroom décor. That’s where projection alarm clocks come in.


These clever devices don’t just beep you awake; they literally project the time onto your wall or ceiling, giving you a modern, easy-to-read display without the need to fumble for your phone in the middle of the night.


At BuySave, our very own Wake Up! Projection Alarm Clocks are designed to combine functionality with modern design, making them one of the best ways to refresh your bedroom setup without breaking the bank.

What Exactly is a Projection Alarm Clock?


A projection alarm clock works just like any other clock — with one extra feature that makes all the difference: a built-in projector that beams the time onto a nearby surface. Whether it’s your ceiling, wall, or even across the room, the time is always visible at a glance.


Instead of rolling over to squint at a glowing phone screen or turning on a light, you simply open your eyes and the time is right there, easy to see. Many models (including our Wake Up! range) even allow you to adjust the projection angle and brightness, so you can make it as subtle or bold as you like.


The Benefits of Using a Projection Alarm Clock


So why should you consider switching from a regular alarm clock (or your phone) to a projection model? Here are some of the standout reasons:

1. Easy Night-Time Visibility

The biggest benefit is obvious — you can see the time without effort, even in total darkness. No fumbling for glasses, no straining to read tiny digits. Just look up, and there it is.

2. A Modern, Stylish Upgrade for Your Bedroom

Let’s be honest — most alarm clocks are either boring or dated. Projection alarm clocks add a touch of modern tech style to your nightstand. With sleek LED displays and futuristic projections, they don’t just tell the time — they look good doing it.

3. Great for Families & Kids

Parents love projection alarm clocks because they’re both fun and practical. Kids enjoy the glowing projection on the ceiling (some even use it as a nightlight), while parents appreciate not having to leave phones charging in bedrooms.

4. Extra Features for Everyday Convenience

Many projection alarm clocks come with added perks, such as:

  • Temperature display – know the room conditions at a glance.

  • USB charging ports – keep your phone or smartwatch charged without cluttering your plugs.

  • Snooze button – for those mornings when you really need “five more minutes.”

The Wake Up! Projection Alarm Clocks at BuySave include all of these handy extras, which means you’re not just buying a clock — you’re getting a multifunctional bedside companion.


Why Not Just Use Your Phone?


It’s a fair question. If your phone already has an alarm, why bother with a separate device? Here’s why:

  • Sleep quality: Phones emit blue light and constant notifications that disrupt sleep. An alarm clock is distraction-free.

  • Reliability: If your phone dies overnight or the alarm volume is set too low, you’ll oversleep. A projection alarm clock is built for one purpose — waking you up.

  • Habit building: Using a dedicated alarm clock means you can charge your phone outside the bedroom. That one small change can improve sleep hygiene dramatically. Excellent for parents who have kids that have phones that lock overnight to keep them from using them while their parents are asleep.


In short, projection alarm clocks aren’t just about telling the time — they’re about creating healthier, more reliable routines.

How to Choose the Right Projection Alarm Clock


Not all projection clocks are built the same. Here are a few things to keep in mind when picking the best one for your needs:

Brightness Control

Some people like a bold projection that lights up the room, while others prefer a subtle glow. Look for a clock with adjustable brightness levels.

Loudness of Alarm

If you’re a heavy sleeper, make sure the clock has a loud enough alarm to actually get you out of bed. Our Wake Up! clocks are designed to wake even the deepest sleepers.

Power Source

Do you want a plug-in model, or one with battery backup? The latter ensures your alarm still goes off during load-shedding — something every South African needs to consider.

Display & Design

Since it’s sitting on your nightstand, your alarm clock should look good. Sleek designs and clear displays make all the difference.


Where to Buy in South Africa
