Ozlo Sleepbuds® | Comfortable Side Sleeper Headphones | Up to 10 Hours of Bluetooth LE Streaming | Science-Backed Sleep Sounds | Snore Blocking Comfortable Earbuds

A light sleeper no longer being woken up!
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!

If sleep is a problem, Ozlo Sleepbuds are worth considering
This is actually the second set of Ozlo Sleepbuds that I’ve owned. And I owned a pair of Bose Sleepbuds before that. I loved them before the added the sleep tracking feature and the Sleepbuds are more valuable with the tracking. The sound quality is not as good as my AirPods, but I don’t expect them to be. I can lay comfortably on my side and they last all night. As with any product that is used every day, there is some maintenance. If you let wax build up on the contacts in the case, you are going to have problems; but cleaning with q-tips and rubbing alcohol is straight forward. The sleep sounds included are quite good; but Calm and Moongate have good sleep content worth exploring as well. I can’t claim all my sleep problems have disappeared; but my sleep is significantly better. The noise cancellation works quite well.

Very comfortable, great sleep aids, block out most external noise

I was very excited and looking forward to receiving the headphones as I am a very light sleeper. While the headphones themselves are good quality and fit well, the software is absolutely disappointing. It seems focused on iOS as the nightly sleep reports are already available for that platform (not on Android). On Android however, the app feels like its been developed by an amateur. Texts don’t fit on the screen and cannot be scrolled so buttons below the text cannot be reached (see screenshot) – Phone is a Samsung S24 Ultra.There are only a very small amount of white noise sounds available which would be an easy one to fix. Apps such as Ambience for example have tons of white noises.As the headphones are of no real use without the app, it would be a good idea to have an experienced developer take a few months and design a proper Android app so the luxurious price tag is actually justified.
