Loop Quiet 2 vs Philips SmartSleep Wake-up Light HF3650 (formerly Somneo)
Sqwod verdict
Our pick: Loop Quiet 2 takes it — 85 vs 81.
Both are strong — the call comes down to what you prioritise:
- Loop Quiet 2 — You (or your clients) want comfortable, reusable, maximum-quiet earplugs for sleep, side-sleeping, focus or travel at a low price.
- Philips SmartSleep Wake-up Light HF3650 (formerly Somneo) — Buy it if you struggle with dark winter mornings and want a proven, gentle light-based wake-up with wind-down and sunset features, and you don't mind paying a premium.
Our pick 
Loop Quiet 2
85Score · Medium
from €19.95
A comfortable, well-reviewed reusable silicone earplug (24 dB SNR, lab “B” grade) that’s a genuinely strong side-sleeper pick — just not a total-silence or medical-grade solution.
Philips SmartSleep Wake-up Light HF3650 (formerly Somneo)
81Score · Medium
from €189
The Somneo HF3650 is Philips' flagship sunrise-simulation alarm and one of the best-regarded wake-up lights on the German market, with a smooth 30-minute light ramp, RelaxBreathe wind-down and a sunset function. It wakes you gently and reliably, but it is pricey and the built-in speaker is mediocre.
