€58

Do we really need smart pillows? I mean, really need them? Apparently someone thought there was a market for one, because here we are: the Soundasleep smart pillow. It has built in 1.5w speakers and will wirelessly connect to your phone, laptop or other bluetooth enabled device to play your music, podcasts or other audio of choice to send you drifting off to sleep. There’s also a sleep tracker, a snore manager and a smart alarm, so you can find out how you sleep and then shake yourself out of it every morning.
