I still use one, in part because I don't want to require my phone in my bedroom.
(Sometimes I have it in my bedroom sometimes not, just depends on where I happened to leave it when I go to bed. I do not look at the phone in bed).
I have had this particular alarm clock for literally 35 years. What I prize about it is the ability to set the alarm time with two big dials on front, instead of having to press next-next-next buttons on the bottom.
I do not know what I will do when it finally breaks.
I can't find a picture of it online, I'm not sure if I'm describing it in a way anyone understands, it does not seem to be a well-known alarm clock. It is one (of many) "Sony Dream Machine" models, but most don't have this feature. The front has two big dials side by side. The left one has 24 marked positions, for each of the 24 hours in the day, color-coded for day and night. the other on the right has 12 positions for the 60 minutes in 5 minute increments. So you can just turn one and turn the other to easily set the alarm to whatever time you like (well, whatever time on 5 minute increments!)
