Title: A light sleeper no longer being woken up!
Review: I am a pretty light sleeper. I have four children, ages 9-17, and sometimes they stay up late, sometimes they wander into my room to get something or other late at night, sometimes my husband snores or coughs, 🙂 and sometimes we have a train that goes by the house at night. Just typical life stuff, but I crack my eyelid for a second when I hear things, and obviously that’s pulling me out of good sleep. I used to turn on the fan in my bathroom, hoping to drown out some of the noise. I also got a white noise maker to try to drown things out even more. I liked having those things, but I was still being woken up. These sleepbuds are a life saver for blocking all those little noises that would normally interrupt my sleep (even if just briefly).First, they are very comfortable. The medium size fits my ear very well. You need to twist it back into your ear for the little wing tip to fit snugly into the groove of your ear. Once you’ve got them in, there is no risk of them falling out. I am a side sleeper and 95% of the night I sleep on only my right side, so I usually just put the left ear in, and my right ear is pressed against the pillow.The sounds in the app are very soothing. My favorite right now is Crimson Cloak, which has a very nice even tone in the middle range. It’s perfect white noise. I’ve also slept with the crackling fire one, and the raindrops one – and both are also soothing. But, I go back to the simple white noise options most often. There are not very many sleep sounds in the Ozlo app, only about ten (I’d love if there were more options), but I had no trouble finding one I like. Plus, I have a subscription to Headspace and I’m able to use these sleepbuds with their night sounds if I want. One thing I like about the sounds in the app is that they don’t overwhelm. It doesn’t feel like anything is blasting in your ear. The sound almost feels “far away” like you’re hearing it from outside a window. This is not a defect of the earbuds, because I can use the buds when listening to other things on my phone and it sounds great. I think it is a feature of the sounds within the app. They don’t feel overwhelming, and I have no trouble falling right to sleep.My husband thinks I must be getting into a pretty deep sleep when I wear them, because he says I make noises in my sleep when I’m really out 🙂 and I’ve been doing that ever since wearing these. I dream often, so maybe that’s why?? Every morning my husband is asking, “Did you hear me cough? Did you hear me get up in the night? Did you hear the dog bark?” and whenever I answer “no” he is super impressed.I sleep about 7-8 hours a night and the battery always lasts through the night. But, they do have to go back in the case to charge every day. One night I put one of the earbuds back in the case flipped 180, and so it didn’t charge, and that night it did not have enough battery to use it.Connecting them up to my phone was easy. They walk you through how to do it in the app. It took about 30 minutes for the updates to download and then it was ready to go. They auto connect via bluetooth when I open the case. But, one odd thing is that to disconnect them I have to put them back in the case, close the lid, and then turn off my bluetooth for a second so they disconnect. I’m hoping that is something that can be fixed, so they disconnect automatically when I put them back in the case in the morning.My husband keeps talking about wanting to try them, but I’m reluctant to not have them for a night while he tries them out :). I guess I’ll just have to get him his own pair!

Title: Sleep saver!
Review: I have been using these for about a month now and from the first night I have been able to get consistent quality sleep. I am sleeping for 7-8 hours a night now. I am normally a VERY light sleeper and am woken up by the smallest of noises. Even with two fans and a sound machine going. But these were the answer to my issues!They are very functional and fit comfortable in my ears. I have small ear openings, but was able to comfortably use the default tips. They do come with smaller ones (and bigger) if needed. They charge quickly and I haven’t had any issues with Bluetooth connectivity. The range is as good as I need it to be as sometimes I DO get up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and there is no break in sound. That is rare now days though!They drown out light snoring. Unfortunately I can’t speak on loud snoring, but I did sleep straight through my loud alarm, as I didn’t set the alarm on the ear buds the previous night. The alarm works great and the app is easy to use for me.Overall I feel like these have been amazing! I have had zero issues with them so far. I hope it continues that way. They were pricey, but I feel like when absolutely nothing else worked and I was waking up multiple times a night and sometimes not being able to go back to sleep, they are well worth that price tag.

Title: Effectively $300 Ear Plugs
Review: *Changes Below…I have been extremely torn on whether to give these three or four stars. I would say 3.5, but I can’t, and I can’t say they are a full 4/5. Despite what I am about to say, I am very glad these exist. I am glad people are trying to do this after Bose proper decided to kill the product/project. Good sleep is so important for health, and for me, noise is one of my biggest problems when I’m trying to sleep. And I travel for work. I spend about half my nights NOT at home, and it isn’t fun. I have to have tools to block noise.My wife started snoring after child two. It’s off and on. Ear plugs and sound machine wouldn’t do it. I am not sure whether these block it because she doesn’t always do it. But she hasn’t woken me up in the couple weeks I’ve had them. One big issue is that if you’re side sleeping, the snoring comes through the bed and pillow, regardless of sound machine or ear plugs, which is what I hope these solve. That said, are these better than ear plugs and a white noise sound machine? Maybe, but not by much. At least not at a volume that will last the night. I will say these are way more comfortable than ear plugs. That is an amazing step. But, $300.The description says “up to 10 hours of Bluetooth LE Streaming.” That is being VERY generous. I’ve used basically exclusively the power saving Bluetooth mode which turns off streaming after 10 minutes, and with volume set between 64% and 75%, and after 7-8 hours of use, I have woken up with them at between 5% and 10%. In my picture, you can see the left is at 7% and the right at 10%. The fact that they aren’t evenly draining when brand new is concerning. 64% volume also isn’t that loud with my chosen sound. If I had to crank these up, I doubt they would get me through the night. Might I also remind you that Li-Ion batteries have so many charge cycles in them before they lose capacity. 300-500 is the general limit. So if you use these every day, with them barely scraping through a night’s sleep as new, I doubt they will last much over a year. $300.Another issue I’ve been having is when I go onto my side, if I don’t rest my head just right on the pillow, somehow the earbud sound gets blocked in that ear. I am not sure if it’s just me or the earbuds. I have actually had that wake me up a couple times because I was moving around and the sound would stop and start in my pillow ear. I still use my sound machine with these, so I might try using the sleep timer off since falling asleep is the hard bit, and it should prolong the battery life.One thing I hate is the case. I really do. It has a slide open, spring assisted lid. I frequently find the case open in my travel bag and they’re connecting to my phone unwanted. It’s nice and all. It feels nice to open, and it’s a clever, different design. But I think there’s a reason most use a clam shell hinge open case. In practice, this doesn’t work all that well.The bottom line is, if you have tried ear plugs and white noise sound machines (lectro fan is awesome), these may be a good step, if you have the money. But don’t spend money you can’t afford if you haven’t tried the other things. Overall, I would say these are very impressive. They do last the night at this point. But I am worried they won’t do that for long if I need sound all night. Hilariously, the alarm is advertised to not startle you or your partner. Yeah… The other day was the first time I recall being startled awake by an alarm (that wasn’t my backup scary alarm), and me jerking awake also woke my partner. They are right in your ear and they don’t ramp up like my phone alarm. They just go. But I probably would get used to it and not do that. The tech is certainly cool. The way it stores sounds on board and reconnects to sound your alarm is a neat way to conserve precious battery.If these were $150-200, or the battery life was much more promising, I would give a solid 4 or 5 stars.Edit: After a month of wearing these off and on, and every night at home and thinking they were working, it turns out I was just already sleeping at the right times. Just like before I used them. I have finally tested them against snoring, air conditioning fans, etc. Anything that produces a low rumble just comes straight through. I just woke up having to take care of business. My sleep timer had already shut them off. So I started them back up. Snoring. I changed them from 66% to 100% volume. Still there. The snoring just rumbles straight through the pillow, blanket, etc. I would honestly say that these are equally effective as ear plugs and a good sound machine like a $40 Lectro Fan. These still are more comfortable than any ear plugs I’ve tried. But Lectro Fan will 100% last the night at whatever volume you set.
