It does what it says it will…….
Honestly didn’t think I’d keep using it… but I am!I bought the Muse S Athena thinking it would be another thing I’d try for a week and forget about. I’ve done that with so many wearables. But I am happy with this device.At first I just wanted to try the digital sleeping pills. I’ve always been a light sleeper and I was curious if it could show me anything useful/help keep me asleep. It did. The app showed where my sleep was getting interrupted and when I was actually getting deep rest. It wasn’t perfect every night, but it made me more aware of what was messing with my sleep and the digital sleeping pills seem to help in keeping me asleep during the night (which is cool).The real surprise was how much I started using the daytime stuff. The focus and calm sessions don’t take long, but they help me reset when I’m in that mental fog. I’ll throw it on for 10 minutes before diving into something stressful and I just feel more steady after.The band is soft enough that I forget I’m wearing it. I’ve had a couple times where the connection didn’t register right away, but support helped me out quickly and it’s been smooth since.It’s not magic and it won’t fix your whole life, but it does what it says it will. And that’s rare enough for me to keep going with it.

Complete Disappointment. Did Not Work Out of the Box.
This item was a complete disappointment. It did not work for me at all at first, no stats showed up in the app after multiple sessions. It only started working after several attempts and wasting a lot of time troubleshooting with customer support. I own Muse 2, Muse S, and Muse S (2nd gen), and in my opinion this one is by far the worst. For almost $500 price tag, a product should work straight out of the box, not after hours of trial and error. It feels like I may have been sold a defective unit, though I can’t say for sure. I would not recommend.

Never lose sleep again
Yes, just finished reading about their digital sleeping pill. Put their devise on at night, listen to the sleep meditation, the MUSE devise is monitoring and recording your brain waves, and when it senses that your brain waves are going up and you may wake it ques the meditation again and sends you back the other way to sleep. Brilliant!

Very uncomfortable to sleep in
I bought the Muse S Athena to replace old Sleep Shephard Blue which had finally stopped working. I find it annoying that I have to have to use separate headphones, but I knew that when I bought it. Additionally, I have to practically soak my head with water in order get the EEG sensors to pick up properly. The sensors do stay connected through the night though. I have the Muse 2 and do not have this problem.Since I have the Muse 2, I bought this to be a sleep aid. I have an Apple Watch and just bought a pair of the Ozlo Sleepbuds (which are great) and have worn all three together. I have not found any real difference between the sleep reports from these three devices.I have found that the Muse S Athena works really well for meditation, but I already have a Muse S for that.Finally, I find the Muse S Athena to be very uncomfortable for sleeping. I am a side sleeper, and the headband compresses my ears, causing pain which has woken me up a lot. I will be returning the Muse S Athena.

“upgraded from my old muse ,this thing is getting crazy good”
Honestly didn’t think i’d upgrade but here we are.had the previous version and those biofeedback games completely changed how i meditate. like, you HEAR when your brain calms down vs when it’s racing. made meditation actually make sense for the first time. got me obsessed with BCI (brain computer interfaces) and started going down the biohacking rabbit hole hard.so when they added fNIRS sensors (the blood oxygen stuff from actual research labs) i caved and got the athena. and yeah, it’s noticeably better. more accurate, the new brain training games are actually challenging, and i can feel the difference in the readings.If you’re just meditation curious, this is overkill. but if you’re already into tracking stuff and want to see what’s happening in your brain? this is wild.I’m excited about where this tech is going. Each version adds real capabilities not just minor tweaks.

Don’t buy it.
No, it was a failure. Didn’t detect any of my deep sleep, actually recorded as 0 over several nights. I had to return it. Another flop!!

Meditation mode only provides 3 hours of battery life.
Hopefully, the clever people at Interaxon will find a way to update the app with the option to turn off the fNIRS during meditation. Alternatively, could follow Mind Monitor’s lead and provide toggles for 4, 8, or 16 Channels, each with Low or High power options. It is possible, and should this happen, it will bring Athena closer to the ‘perfect’ moniker it deserves.
