Sleep Earbuds, Hearprotek 2 Pairs Ultra Soft Lightweight Silicone Sleeping Earphone Headphones with Volume Control and mic for Side Sleeper, Snoring, Air Travel, Relaxation (Black)

The best sleep ear buds on the market. I have tried many and none are as soft and comfortable in your ears. There is a tradeoff though in that they break down. My last pair made it 6 months which I feel is a fair deal for something I use every night. I basically can't sleep without them so I hope they don't stop making them. I have tried some of Hearprotek's other earbuds but none are as comfortable. I prefer the 3.5 mm version and use a USB C adapter for my phone. I find that the 3.5 mm version with an adapter drains my battery significantly less than the USB C version. It must be the chip that runs the USB C. I have had some pairs break down faster but I feel like the quality has improved. I like the passive noise cancelation which the tips provide, so even after my audiobook stops I still sleep with the noise blocking. The complete silence and an eye mask allow me to sleep through a lot.

I’ve been using the Hearprotek USB-C sleep earbuds for about a week, mainly for sleep and air travel, and they’ve been a solid choice. The silicone tips are super soft and comfortable – they don’t press hard against my ears when lying on my side, which is a major plus for sleep buds. The noise isolation is surprisingly effective at blocking out ambient noise like fans, snoring, or plane engines. The included mic and volume control are a nice touch, though I primarily use them for audio. Sound quality is decent – not audiophile-level, but clean enough for podcasts or white noise. The USB-C connection works well with Android devices, and I haven’t experienced any connectivity issues. Only minor drawback: the bass is a bit flat, so music lacks depth. But for the price and purpose (sleep, relaxation, light travel use), it’s worth it. The carrying case is compact and handy too.

These earbuds do have volume control, which is what I was looking for. However, because of the silicone tips, I experienced the occlusion effect—hearing my own heartbeat and internal sounds—which was just as distracting as the noise I wanted to block out. I bought them specifically for sleeping, so I'll need to return them. That said, the sound quality is decent for the price—nothing grand, but good enough. On the positive side, the earbuds are soft and comfortable in the ears.

I’ve tried many different earbuds but these are the most comfortable and have the best clarity of any I’ve tried. I will definitely buy another pair for travel!

First off, I never even realized that there were as many of these "sleep buds" as I'm now seeing. I was looking for Bluetooth headphones of the same ilk, and the closest I've come were a headband style. And in terms of comfort, those are okay-ish...but nowhere in the same league as the ones I'm reviewing right now. That said, my initial thought, when seeing that all of these sleep style buds are wired, was that of disappointment. But for the price, it makes total sense and isn't a surprise. To the actual review, short and to the point: 1. Comfort: Perhaps one of, if not THE most comfortable in ear buds wired OR wireless, ever. Seriously. Usually I loathe silicone tips, but these are a serious exception. The driver is in an incredibly short and narrow and soft silicone housing. Being short and narrow is the key to not killing your ears when on your side. The soft and very flexible silicone is what lends itself to not giving your ears fatigue for long listening stints. 2. Sound Quality: I was sort of expecting the type of sound Quality you'd get from the plastic tube headphones on airplanes back in the 80's. But what I hear is more akin to fairly decent Bluetooth headphones in the $40 range. They sound like a few pairs that I own for sure. So...very nice surprise. They won't win any awards for detail or soundstage, but in a pinch, they're quite good. I bought these for podcasts and ASMR though, and in that context, they're killer. They sound MUCH better than some Bluetooth buds in that regard. Also, the noise isolation is fantastic. But... It also relates to the one downside I can think of.... Cons: If I had to come up with one negative (which I've found a solution to), it would be cable microphonics. Because the noise isolation is so great, you can hear a lot of noise when the cables move. These are microphonics. There's an easy fix for that though... Just take the cable and loop it over your ear. Done. Almost zero noise now. The only thing that would make these better is if they had a cable tassel attached, so that you could keep the cables taught near your chin. Oh...The controls. They are perfect. Big enough buttons to feel each one and the whole thing is very light weight so as not to be uncomfortable or awkward. I'll probably get another pair or two (might try a different brand too) just in case. Last word:. I've fallen asleep wearing these a few times now, and cannot recommend these highly enough.

I've bought these earbuds four times now - all of them have lasted two months before the sound degraded to an intolerable level. I kept repurchasing them because they are the most comfortable earbuds I have ever found for sleeping in. They are also excellent with noise cancellation as the earpiece creates a tight (but comfortable) fit. Unless I find better, I've accepted that they will only last a couple months. So if that's what you need - great noise cancellation and high comfort to use at night, then I totally recommend them. But I would never use these if my priority were sound quality, or durability. Sound quality is decent when you first get them, but within weeks the sound quality begins its steady decline - with increasingly lower volume, muffled tones, and nonstop crackle. They are reliably unusable by the 2 month mark.

These are much better than the ones with a 3.5 jack with an adapter. They don't hiss, they fit securely and don't fall out, and I can sleep on my side with them.

These headphones are a lifesaver! I'm the type who prefers to sleep in a dark room that's dead silent. My husband, on the other hand, has a fan, a TV, and an AC (in the summer) going in order to tune out tinnitus, and he snores. I honestly debated whether we should sleep in different rooms or not. After being married for 10 years, I thought I was doomed to a life of sleeplessness. In amongst the sleep headbands with speakers, were these sleep earphones. I didn't think it would be that easy, but I was wrong. When they arrived, I tried them right away. They're soft and have double tips - they block out SO MUCH NOISE! I'm by no means a sound connoisseur, but I mostly listen to videos and podcasts with no issues. I've even started using these when I feel overwhelmed with noise in the house. The case is also really handy and it's nice to know I'll always have a pair because I keep it clipped to my purse. For sleeping, they're even better! All the noises I've previously had to deal with at night are but a low mumble now. And as a side sleeper, these are the most comfortable earphones ever! If it wasn't for the cable attached, I wouldn't even know they were there. Half the time I don't even play anything - they're just in there blocking noise while I read or something. The only downside, which is to be expected, is that my ears get wax buildup a bit more. It hasn't become an issue, though. The tips are attached, so they can't be replaced for a different size, but I have small canals and haven't had an issue. I think they'd adjust to anyone's ears with how soft the silicone is. I have already recommended these and definitely would again!

It's fit to my ears and great quality product

Preferring wired earbuds for dealing with insomnia, these are easy to fall asleep with. Wired, comfortable earbuds are getting harder to find, so thank you

I love the length of the cable, the softness and comfort of the buds, real easy listening with good quality sound
