By Amit Chowdhry • Jul 14, 2020
  • Owlet recently announced the Smart Sock 3 baby monitor. These are the Owlet Smart Sock 3 features you should know about.

Following five years of product development and feedback from thousands of parents, Owlet Baby Care recently revealed the third generation of the award-winning Smart Sock baby monitor. The new Smart Sock 3 is able to track the heart rate and oxygen level of the baby who is wearing it. This lets parents know when their baby needs them the most.

Owlet has completely redesigned Smart Sock 3 so that it now fits smaller newborns and larger babies, ranging from 5 lbs to 30 lbs. This allows parents to track tiny babies as soon as they come home from the hospital.

The new Smart Sock 3 continues to track the baby’s heart rate and oxygen through gentle motion with an improved tracking frequency of 97% during an 8-hour session. And enhanced wireless charging now delivers a fully charged Smart Sock in just 90 minutes with a battery life of 16 hours. Plus the Smart Sock 3 has improved Bluetooth range and enables parents to snooze Base Station notifications for more customized monitoring.

In order to celebrate the new product launch, Owlet teamed up with renowned childcare expert and Hollywood nanny Connie Simpson (known as “Nanny Connie”) —  who has used Owlet’s Smart Sock with many of her celebrity clients like Jessica Biel and George Clooney.

Since the company introduced the Smart Sock seven years ago, 96% of parents using the product say that they’ve felt less anxious and 94% of parents have reported better sleep quality while using the Sock on their baby.

You can buy the third-generation Smart Sock is now for $299 at Owletcare.com and it will be rolling out to major retailers like Target and Amazon over the next few weeks.
