Quite apart from the fact that the built-in FM radio is anything but up-to-date and makes at least the radio part unusable in 6 years, as the analogue radio signal is switched off. Philips has probably made economic considerations first and foremost. First they will cash in with the current models, then at some point they will bring out a model with a radio clock and FM radio, in order to finally switch to DAB shortly before the end of the FM signal. Better to cash in three times than only once. We understand. The special offer price is tempting at the official list price, but I wouldn't pay more than 70 francs for it because of the radio and the foreseeable obsolescence, especially since the speaker itself is only mono and probably makes more noise than sound.
So, I like these lamps.
I buy one at least every time there's a special offer. I give them to family, friends and relatives for Christmas or birthdays.
You can choose between three different options. Select
one of the nature sounds, no sound or the FM radio.

The light itself turns off completely. The time can be dimmed or switched off in four levels. I have the time on the lowest level and it doesn't bother me. As soon as the light turns on, the time is set to the brightest level and dims again when you turn off the light.
This Philips Smart Sleep & Wake-up Light does not support connection to a smartphone app. It operates independently with features like radio alarm and snooze functions, but does not offer app connectivity.
You can set two alarms to go off on the same morning. However, there is no specific information about whether you can programme the alarms with different melodies. The device offers seven natural alarm sounds and an FM radio function, but it is not explicitly mentioned that the melodies can be selected individually for each alarm.
In contrast to the Philips Wake-Up Light, the Philips Smart Sleep does not have a built-in radio module (so it is not a clock radio). Otherwise they differ only slightly in colour.
The Philips SmartSleep Wake-Up Light HF3531/01 must always be connected to electricity to function, as it does not have a battery or any other power source besides an electrical connection.
Hi, Djouffe
Do you mean,
A) using the unit as a light source only?
Or do you mean,
B) that the light comes on (when the time is set) without any sound coming out?
