After years of trying everything I could find, sleeping headands ( tinny sound and always lose elastic ) pillow speakers ( sound terrible ) wired night earplugs ( uncomfortable and often woke with the cord wrapped around my face or neck ) these are in a different league, great sound and base for such small earplugs, comfortable enough to keep in all night, no discomfort side sleeping.
You get what you pay for and these after 3 months of use have been worth every penny.
Highly recommended.
These are just like wearing normal earplugs. I Like to listen to a podcast to drift off to sleep. After a preset time, they turn off automatically. If you roll over in the night, there is no pain in the ear like with normal earphones.
Also various types of ‘white noise’ in the sleep mode turns off when it thinks you’re asleep.
Also tracks sleep on the app.
Great earbuds bought to replace my dying Bose sleep buds. Noise cancellation works on 2 fronts as they plug the ear snugly and the available sounds mask snoring. Easy to connect and as an added bonus the Bluetooth mode allows you to use them as normal earbuds for music! Comfy to wear all night and great value
These earbuds are slim profile and true in-ear. Being a side sleeper who wakes frequently in the night, these are a god send for comfort.and ease of use. They are easily switched between Bluetooth media and soothing sleep sounds with a downloadable library.
Sound quality is very good. The case, though attractive can lead to fumbling to open the sliding lid and to redock the buds. Some kind of tactile indications would help.
I have tried many earbuds forcside sleeping and these are the only ones that I cannot feel in my ears and the battery lasts forever. Havinv it in my ears all night and battery only drops to 70%.
The sound quality is excellent too.
Highly recommend.
They are cumfy… I’m a stomach/side sleeper and can comfortable put my ear against the pillow with the plugs in my ear. There are different size plugs and wings included in the box.
I use YouTube videos (sleep sounds like rain, thunder) or an app like Calm to fall asleep. The A20 recognize when I have fallen asleep and automatically changes to their in built soothing sounds for the rest of the night.
The sounds from your phone through blutooth sound great some soundscapes are so 3Drealistic you feel you are in the middle of the woods while its raining. Lovely. The inbuilt sounds from the Soundcore app are in mono though, but you wont be bothered as they still soothing and kick only in when you are at sleep (and keep you lullying in good sleep) 🙂
The controls need tapping on the earbuds. I had an issue with this but Soundcore customer service sorted it out. You can switch between bluetooth (sounds from your phone) or the inbuilt sleep sounds.
Pros: comfortable, sound great (you can use them for podcasts, music, but there is a small latency in sounds if you want to watch videos), battery last well till morning
Cons: they are tricky to put back in the case in dark, but you learn quite quickly to do it
I absolutely love these. They dont have active noise cancellation (thats why they so tiny!) but they block a bit passively and then the sounds you listen to drown any noise like snoring around you.
I highly recommend these!
Having previously used Apple AirPod Pros and used Bluetooth for Rain sounds whilst I slept, their battery ran out around 4am. These nifty buds are SO comfy, never fall out and last me all night. They are not noise cancelling like the AirPods but still help combat my husband’s snoring! Get them if you need a long battery, like hearing ambient sounds while you sleep and get sore ears from other makes. The different size wings and tips are awesome!
I bought this on Prime day for 102 which is a discount of 20 from it’s usual price which is still fairly expensive hence the 4 stars instead of 5 stars. However, it is a very good fit in the ear for side sleepers and in sleep mode it has a good library of sounds to help you doze off to sleep or you can keep it in bluetooth mode if you want to doze off to your own stuff. I’ve been using them every day for about a month and no issues so far.
I suffer from tinnitus and have tried a great many sleep earphones, none of them were comfortable enough. These are a game changer. I have worn them for round a week now and I don’t feel them in my ear. There are many sized earpieces to find your perfect fit. The app is a bit limited, but no big deal as I listen through Spotify. Sound is very good. I’m very happy with my purchase
I went on a cruise ship holiday shared the room with a friend who’s known snorer.
I slept most of the night. I felt that it’s passive noise cancellation are better than normal ear plugs.
You just need to get use wearing it in bed.
With it sound off works better for me at the end cos most of it’s sounds are stimulating
than sedating for me.
These Soundcore Sleepbuds are a game changer! They fit perfectly in my ears and don’t fall out during the night. As a side sleeper, I can’t feel them at all when lying on my side. I used to use the Bose sleep buds, but they were no match for these, so I have ditched them.
It’s great to be able to listen to podcasts while going to sleep, knowing that once I’m asleep, the chosen background noises automatically come on. The library of background noise choices is more than adequate, and it’s fantastic to be able to choose up to three noises to download into the sleep buds. These three noises can all be played on top of each other to create the perfect combination of sounds to blank out any outside noise or frequencies of your tinnitus.
An alarm can be set using the app and then sent to the Sleepbuds, which means there’s no need to have them connected to the phone during the night. As soon as you take the Sleepbuds out of the charging case, they immediately play your chosen SleepSound without needing to enter the app, which is great when you are tired and just want to go to bed without setting things up on the phone. The battery life is brilliant; I only used about 50% in eight hours of sleep.
I can’t recommend these highly enough! If you suffer from tinnitus (as I do), then these are worth every penny. The sound quality for streaming audio is very good.
I found them comfortable to wear for a full night’s sleep, and using the downloaded soundtrack, they lasted until morning with time to spare. However, streaming via bluetooth, the batteries were almost exhausted at around 6 am, so not really satisfactory, and not as much as claimed. This only became worse after 2 or 3 weeks, I also noticed that the left earbud would only charge to 90% – it looked as though the battery was starting to fail.
Due to this, I reluctantly decided to return them.
You may wonder why I have given 5 stars for a product that I’ve had to return, this is because after trying out an alternative, I now believe that I should have asked for a replacement, rather than a refund – if you find my review of the (albeit much cheaper) Damipow earbuds, you’ll see why.
These buds, I think, are the best option for all-night use – I’ll probably purchase another set.
Comfortable and allows Bluetooth connection. I put on a droning podcast to get to sleep which turns off once it detects you are sleeping. If it detects you wake it reverts to previously downloaded white noise. The non anc noise cancelling comes in the form of two seals per ear.
Highly recommend.
Highly recommended!
I’m hearing parts of my fav songs that I never appreciated before – I kid you not. Everything is crystal clear in separation like I’ve never heard before from any previous over-ear or in-ear headphones. The Signature mode is great. Base mode is also great and produces all the thumping bass I could ever need. EQ customisation is quick and easy.
I tell you the fit and sound blocking is nearly as good as my other headphones with ANC on. Unbelievable but real. So comfortable and light. I could do cartwheels and they would not fall out.
I’m like ‘How?’ How does Soundcore produce all this magic!? Matters not – they’ve done it.
The sleep mode was less than satisfactory on testing for 2 nights. The A20 manual states, “Sleep A20 does not have an ANC feature. This feature is only effective in Sleep mode.” I correctly configured Bluetooth settings and without doubt followed all the instructions to the letter (app running, app not running, waited 30-odd minutes etc). I could not detect any ‘effective ANC in Sleep mode’. I am aware that the A20 does not have microphones and uses mobile phone for assistance.
I’m afraid Soundcore has made a mistake by not including ANC as standard whatever the mode for the A20. Soundcore has other models for 1/2 the price that have ANC with 6 microphones, that run for 10 to 12h with after a full charge. So it’s only a matter of time that a true sleep bud with ANC is coming.
Sleep tracking was not accurate from my tests on both nights. It said that last night I only had 6 min of deep sleep in 8 hours. That must be wrong. Yes, the buds were properly fitted and did not fall out. I slept very well, like nearly totally comatosed.
The sound of music was so great that I was tempted to keep it. But after weighing my disappointments with the Sleep mode v cost of the item, I decided it was not for me. So, I returned it for a full refund. Keep up development and let’s see a full ANC sleep bud soon, at 1/2 the price.
A couple of things to note.
The battery life is great! When I wake up in the morning they are still at 60%!
Though slightly bigger than the Bose sleepbuds, they are still comfortable.
You can play your own music, and the quality is much better than I expected.
They are good at noise masking, but not as good.
I love the fact that they measure your sleep, but the sleep measurements are very different from my Fitbit.
All in all a super product for the price. I’m very happy I have found them.
