When I’m not logging quality, uninterrupted sleep, I feel it in every aspect of my life. My brain feels foggy, my energy levels plummet, and my stomach feels like a bottomless pit. I’ve optimized my sleep routine, and most nights I get in bed at a decent hour, but there are some factors I can’t control. I’ve been testing Anker’s Sound core Sleep A10 earbuds for one week straight, and these tiny earbuds helped me fall asleep and sleep more deeply—but there are a few things I’d change. The Sleep A10 earbuds don’t support active noise canceling (ANC). They use sleep sounds, earplugs, and twin seal ear tips to mask up to 35 dB of outside noise. They’re surprisingly comfortable (even for side sleepers!) and barely noticeable once you find the right fit. There’s a massive library of sleep sounds in the Sound core app, which can be played in “music mode” or “sleep mode.” You can only have one track downloaded at a time. Once in sleep mode, you cannot switch to another sound unless you go into the app and replace it with another. The noise masking I expected these earbuds to use active noise canceling (ANC) technology, like what you’d find in Apple AirPods or Bose headphones. Instead, they mask outside noise using white noise or sleep sounds—while also working like a standard ear plug to block out noise with twin seal ear tips and earwigs. The sound library. There’s a large library of sleep sounds available to download, separated into four categories: sleep, relax, rest, and focus. To listen to a sound in sleep mode, you’ll need to select it from the list and add it to your device—and you can only have one sound downloaded at a time (I’ll dive into this a bit more below).
