Wearables expert Nina Raemont tested the Ozlo Sleepbuds earlier this year, and she was impressed by them.
"The Ozlo Sleep earbuds are some of the most comfortable and effective sleep earbuds I've ever tested, and I can't recommend them enough to anybody who needs to quiet down their bedtime environment to catch a few more Z's, that is, if they're willing to pay the $300 price tag. Keep reading to learn why," Raemont wrote in her review.

If you didn't already know, Bose and Ozlo have some invisible strings. In 2020, Bose discontinued the Bose Sleepbuds. The buds "didn't reach the level of adoption" Bose hoped they would, despite their avid following, Bose spokesperson Joanne Berthiaume told The Verge. Raemont says that the Ozlo Sleepbuds are designed to be the Sleepbuds reincarnate, taking some of Bose's proprietary tech, like the StayHear Plus tips, and implementing them into a new product. A little bit of old, a little bit of new, and more good sleep.
