Cube Alarm Clock Isn’t Cruel Like Rubik’s

Because we’ve heard of alarm clocks that hide out of reach, pose math problems and shoot puzzle pieces into the air, the Cube Clock at first looks like another sadistic attempt to wake up its master through frantic use of the brain. Not so. The Cube only resembles the classic Rubik’s Cube puzzle in appearance only — not even in name, so perhaps the rights to “Rubik’s” weren’t secured. Just the top set of squares rotates, so there’s really nothing to solve here. On the bright side, this clock also displays date and temperature. Seems like a pretty benevolent gadget, actually.
