The default is 30 minutes by you can change it to as little as 20 minutes or as much as 40. Using the cryptic buttons you can adjust how bright the light will be and how long the ‘dawn duration time’ will last. It’s possible to make some adjustments to the light intensity and duration for your wake up. PhilIps dubs these ‘Bird Song, Birds in the forest, Zen Garden, Gentle piano and Seaside Sounds. There’s birds chirping, birds with a musical backdrop, musical spa sounds, rainforest and the ocean (with some rather aggressive sounding seagulls). One of the features I like about this clock is that you can choose between five natural sounds to wake up to, in addition to an FM-only radio. Features of Philips Wake Up Light Wake Up Sound options
#PHILIPS SMARTSLEEP 3520 MANUAL#
My advice: set aside some time to sit down with the manual and program it when you can focus, not right before bed. The pictographical buttons aren’t self explanatory, and the programming sequences are a bit confusing, so it took me a couple of tries to get everything set properly. Programming it is not user friendly and definitely requites the use of the manual for interpretation. As I noted earlier there’s no smartphone connection with it so al the programming has to be done on the device.
While I’m a fan of this technology, I am NOT a fan of the user interface on this clock. I find it gentler, and easier to wake up and get out of bed when it’s still dark, when the room has a sunrise glow to it, even if it is artificial. I will say that during my 3am wake up heyday I did use a wake up light, and I tested out others, and I am a believer in this type of technology to help you wake up. The theory goes that by the time the alarm actually goes off, your body has already begun to respond to the natural light brightening and it’s gently nudging you to wakefulness. I did some reading about wake up lights, and they’re supposed to make it easier for you to wake up by simulating a sunrise over about 20-30 minutes. For many years I had to wake up at about 3am so I know how hard it can be to get up before dawn. Most of us find alarm clocks a very necessary evil, with emphasis on the evil. If there’s anyone out there who actually loves the sound of a ringing alarm clock before the sun is up, I’ve never met them. Philips also says this clock “is the only one scientifically proven to work” - that the company has done independent tests that show it’s effective, and that 92% of Philips Wake-up light users find it is easier to get out of bed. This light also feels a lot more powerful and brighter than both the Beddi and Somneo perhaps it’s the larger size of the light. I will say right out of the gate that the wake up sounds that accompany the light are much more natural sounding than the ones on the Phil i ps Somneo Wake up Light I tried last year, which you can read by clicking here too. There are other wake up lights out there that do have this smartphone set up option and it’s very easy. There’s no app and thus everything about it needs to be managed on-device. Surprisingly to me there’s no smartphone connection with this clock. The Wake Up Light is quite large and takes up a lot of space on the bedside table.
#PHILIPS SMARTSLEEP 3520 PLUS#
It’s got standard alarm clock features like a snooze plus different sound options for the wake up. The Philips wake Up Light, model HF3520 to be exact, is a large cone shaped alarm clock with a small digital screen and a built in light that can simulate a sunrise. What is Philips Wake Up Light? What can it do?
