Ozlo - Sleepbuds

Ozlo sleepbuds, designed for sleep but can also be used to stream content of your choice or even social media. Super comfortable even for side sleepers, battery lasting through the whole night even after a year and a half of daily use. It saved my nights, my husband is a big guy with a deviated nose, he snores like a giant and when my Bose sleepbuds died for good, we had to sleep separately for months while I tried several other earbuds brands that fell short or hurt my ears after a couple hours. Bose scrapped all traces of their sleepbuds (because the technology kept falling apart) and the former team on the project decided to create Ozlo, I backed the crow funding. I enjoy that it even has an integrated alarm that will wake you up without giving you a heart attack or waking up others. The app is well made, fairly frequent update no ads, no frills, a lot of choice in white noise, sleep mode, not forced to use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi if you don't want that. The team seems to be passionate and they were always there to help me in the beginning when the budding app was a bit more capricious. Every day it works perfectly, night after night, I can sleep without being disturbed from outside noise.

For sleep, I use the Ozlo Sleepbuds. They are expensive but worth it. They are small so you can roll on your side and it’s fine. Otherwise I like the Bose noise cancelling earbuds. Also expensive, but are chunky - so if i roll over on my side while I sleep they wake me up and/or fall out.

Wife has them. Part of why we got sleepbuds in the first place is my snoring, but part of it is she is a light sleeper. I also use breath right nasal strips, and that genuinely does help me sleep faster. Back to the buds. Changed from Ozlo sleepbuds to these. Ozlo had too many connection and charging issues. Had the subscription plan, so I sent them back after a few months. Bought the a30 as a surprise about a month after they dropped because I was dragging my feet for the same reason. Wife loves these. She sleeps fine for hours and hours upon end, but still does have trouble getting that deep deep sleep from time to time. She always has, but she is definitely less tired than before, so she seems to be getting better sleep. She used to be super cranky. Different kinds of tips and sizes of wings. The buds track snoring/noise in the room, how much deep sleep you get vs interrupted sleep and for how long. In the same section of the app she can go back on a calendar and compare days. We found busier more stressful days seem to be the issue. This is the cooler thing I think. The sound portion is insane. If I remember right it has a beta option where it can auto adjust the volume of the buds based on noise level in the room. She uses a constant volume setting because she doesn't want it cranking up too much and waking her. There is a mix section where you can blend different white noise tracks at percentage levels to create your own custom sound which is super cool. There are also audio sleep books in the sound library that are white noise tracks read by people like Cillian Murphy and Stephen Fry. I would say get them on Amazon if in budget. I couldn't find them in store anywhere around me. If you like em, great! If not, send them back and you at least have an answer. Keep an eye on the return window though. She hasn't really complained about anything specific yet. No battery issues, though she does wish it was a little longer? But she sleeps longer than I do, so take that with a grain of salt. There are foam tips though that increase passive noise isolation like ear plugs if the battery dies. She doesn't notice them when she sleeps, but you can feel them at first. Finding the right combo of wing tip and what ear tip feels right is crucial. Too small and it'll fall out, too large and it might put too much pressure on your ear canal. Took her a few days to get the right fit, and it's not the same in both ears because ears are not perfectly symmetrical so please keep that in mind. Unsolicited advice for anyone, if are having trouble sleeping still or feeling tired all the time, also consider getting a blood test to see if you are lacking in anything. Vitamin d, vitamin b, iodine levels, iron... So many things can affect your day to day, and it's not always just how you sleep but what else you need. Hope this helps!

Yes, I was on the KickStarter, and I've been using them a year. It's a really good product now, but I don't use the Bluetooth streaming so can't comment on that. I had used the Bose SleepBuds II before these; the ex-Bose guys behind this company bought that tech after Bose discontinued it and added things like Bluetooth streaming. I still just use the onboard sleep sounds, though. I just hope they hold up for a few years. One of the buds of my SleepBuds II lost half its volume, and so did the warranty replacement. I got maybe two years use out of both sets together.

They do look like they'd be very comfortable, and the biometric sensing is an interesting feature — I routinely fall asleep listening to things that just keep on playing, so I have to spend ages working out what I missed — as is the noise masking. But yikes, they're expensive! £269 — and [that's on offer](https://ozlosleep.co.uk/products/sleepbuds). And you say there are *still* bugs?

Ozlo sleep buds. They are intended for sleeping and won’t work for phone calls, but you can stream your chosen media normally. They also have white noise options built in. You can use a HSA or FSA to purchase these, as well.

Some people left Bose and started Ozlo. I went through so many Bose all covered under warranty. Have had no problems with Ozlo.

I use 3 pairs: Airpod Pro 1 - old set mostly used when around water (supping). Airpod Pro 2 - daily drivers, can't add anything over what others say, yes airpods are expensive, they are however also very good. Ozlo Sleepbuds - as the name says, just for around sleepy time. Also very expensive especially as they are single purpose but I can't recommend them enough. So... yeah this is the expensive lifestyle. But also how you can start listening to books getting out of bed until the moment you fall asleep.

I’ve got Ozlo Sleepbuds at the minute. I don’t know if you ever had the (now) discontinued Bose Sleepbuds or knew of them, but the developers of the Bose ones started Ozlo and so they’re based around the same design. There’s still bugs with them here and there but there’s teams working around it and launching new features. And they do the trick of playing different soundscapes whilst remaining comfy.

Don't buy them!! I have owned 4 sets of quieton. The only one that actually still works are the original black sleep ones with the button. The "new" design all have the same issue where one bud fails to charge. I bought the 4, I was so hopeful since they claim the QA is enhanced. 8 days in and it fails!! Over $400 Canadian with tax and it took 2 months from intial purchase till I finally got a refund, which IU had to use a paypal dispute to get. I also own the Ozlo and Soundcore A10s, A20s and soon the A30s. Ozlo are hands down the most comfortable but known to by buggy (I haven't experienced it), the Soundcore A20s are nice as far as features but don't provide as much noise isolation. I'm hopeful for the A30s with ANC. Just stay away from the QuietOn!! Huge waste off money, I promise they will fail, they always eventually do!!

I really like them. The ANC is a bit underwhelming, but it does work; just don’t expect Galaxy Buds Pro or AirPods level performance. Fit and placement make a big difference for ANC. They released another firmware update last night, the second since Kickstarter, which is great to see. I find the Ozlo slightly more comfortable than the A30s. The A30s are comfortable too, but considering the price, feature set, and Anker Soundcore support, I’d choose the A30s. I haven’t used the Ozlos since receiving the A30s. Nothing beats QuietOn for ANC and sleep, but they’re the most expensive and they will fail. I haven’t had any issues with the Ozlo yet, and I’ve never had an issue with Soundcore. I own all the A series Sleep models and several of their speakers, and I’m definitely a fan
