I wanted them to work so bad but ... – Bose Sleep Review

I love the idea, design, simplicity and what it was promised it would offer. I love my quiet comfort with active noise cancelling. (Wish somehow one day the technology can be implanted in these tiny earphones) I understand that this one wouldn’t actively cancel out noise however the “sound masking” feature does not do anything. My main issue is the volume. The volume is so LOW that I barely can hear it. This device is only good for sleeping in quiet environment for someone that requires some type of white noise to fall sleep. It does not mask any outside noise. I don’t know why there are so many warnings for high volume in the app? If you are putting on a device to fall sleep obviously you are trying to block out some outside noise otherwise why would you use it? If this can be fixed with an update it would make sense to have this device otherwise there is ZERO benefits from it. I read so many reviews about people complaining about the volume but didn’t believe it, however after using it now I understand. The idea was probably to use this for everyday sleeping situation but the market for blocking outside noise is much higher than listening to some faint sound coming out of a black hole from far far away. Lol
