SleepPhones Wireless: Road Test

Drifting off to sleep looking like John McEnroe circa 1982? You cannot be serious!

What is it?

An interesting new piece of kit to try out in the bedroom this Valentine’s Day.

Steady on, this is a family magazine. Relax, we’re talking about the “world’s most comfortable headphones for sleeping”. The fleece headband conceals slimline speakers that connect to your phone wirelessly, through Bluetooth.

So what? So you can drift off to sleep with a podcast, or music, without the discomfort of regular earbuds, and without waking up in a cat’s cradle of cables. (Although you will look like John McEnroe circa 1982; there’s always a catch.)

Anything else? Get your wife a pair too. Seriously, she’ll be thrilled. Because after chocolates and flowers, the greatest Valentine’s gift is a gizmo to DROWN OUT YOUR SNORING.
