Review on Aeropex Open-Ear Bluetooth Bone Conduction Sport Headphones by AfterShokz - Sweat 🎧 Resistant Wireless Earbuds for Running and Workouts with Built-in Mic and Sport Belt by Karen Nahm ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not exactly what I wanted, but basically everything is fine.

A couple of years ago I was the owner of these headphones. I took it for comfortable listening to music and podcasts on the street and in the subway. Practical use has shown that despite the advertising slogan "headphones for the city and sports" (they say you can listen to music and what''s happening on the street), they are best suited for use only in silence. Yes, the signal travels to the inner ear through the temporal bone, but sound from the outside also enters through the auditory canal. It turns out that the signals are mixed and you can hear only the one that is louder, and as a rule, either the subway train or the street turns out to be louder. For example, if you stand at a bus stop near the highway, you can''t hear the music at all. And if you unscrew the volume to the maximum, then you can’t even hear the β€œstreet”. But such pampering with volume brings a certain discomfort: when the volume is increased, the headphones begin to vibrate unpleasantly. I bought earplugs to use on the subway (fortunately, it was winter and you can hide them under a hat). In terms of sound quality, they are very mediocre, starting from the lower middle of the range, almost nothing is heard, the tops are pulled up, the middle is crooked. In my opinion, the best use is as a headset in the office: without removing it from your head it is convenient to talk on the phone and with colleagues in the immediate vicinity, because. ears are open. I decided for myself that the best solution "for the city and sports" would be closed-type headphones with active noise reduction, and I successfully sold the "aftershocks".

Pros
  • Compactness, autonomy, the microphone does not catch extraneous noise
Cons
  • Sound quality, advertising positioning, price
