The Amazfit Zenbuds are impressive, comfortable to wear (even for side sleepers) and are surprisingly affordable too. As we found in our tests, the results may be surprising. They can even detect when you've rolled over, and how long you spent lying on each side, your front, and your back. Once you've drifted off to sleep, the Zenbuds begin monitoring your heart rate and movement, detecting when you move between sleep stages and any disturbances overnight. If you're thinking that sounds quite similar to the Bose Sleepbuds, you'd be right, but that's not all. Rather than streaming music from your phone, these tiny sleep earplugs play gentle sounds (ranging from soft rainfall to a kitten's snores), which are uploaded from the accompanying mobile app. The Amazfit Zenbuds might look like true wireless headphones, but they're something quite different, sitting somewhere between a sleep tracker and a white noise machine. What we enjoyed most about the Muse S was its meditation training, but it's also an excellent sleep tracker and a good option if you want to incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine. In the morning, all the information is ready to review in the app, which gives you an extremely detailed breakdown of your nocturnal activity and wellbeing. Once you're settled down, the Muse S will monitor your sleep, including restlessness and which side you sleep on. It connects to the Muse app on your phone via Bluetooth, and eases you off to sleep with gentle soundscapes or spoken-word 'journeys' (essentially gentle bedtime stories to help you relax). The band sits comfortably around your head, with the central pod in the middle of your forehead, and is an interesting option for anyone who struggles to wear a watch at night. It uses that cocktail of data to help guide you through meditation sessions during the day, and to provide detailed sleep tracking at night. The Muse S is a soft headband that monitors brain activity through your skin, as well as tracking movement, heart rate, and skin temperature. The Nightbuds are comfortable too, and stay firmly in place even if you're a side-sleeper thanks to their stretchy headband and the soft 'prongs' on their silicone earpieces. The audio is the main feature here the app doesn't just feature a wide array of white noise and nature sounds, but also contains a library of guided meditations and abstract music that you can combine with the ambient sounds to create a personal soundtrack. Accuracy is impressive, though your ear is an excellent place for an optical heart rate sensor as it's less susceptible to light leakage, and blood circulation isn't going to be disturbed by your sleeping position. Sleep tracking data is quite simple you can see the duration of your sleep and how long you spent in each sleep stage, but there's no deep analysis of exactly what this means, or personalized advice on how to improve your sleep in the future. Like the Bose Sleepbuds II they can play soothing sounds to help you drift off, but they also work like regular Bluetooth headphones to stream any audio from your phone, and (like the Amazfit Zenbuds) have an optical heart rate monitor built into one earpiece tracks your sleep patterns overnight. The Kokoon Nightbuds are a set of lightweight headphones packed with all the sleep tech you could ask for.
